The air in the bowels of the Erudite building is thick with the metallic tang of blood and the bitter sting of gunpowder. Fluorescent lights flicker overhead, casting harsh shadows across the concrete floor. Debris crunches underfoot as the last echoes of the firefight fade into an uneasy silence. Eric kneels, his tactical gear scuffed and torn, a thin line of blood tracing from his brow. The cold steel of a pistol presses against his temple, but his blue eyes don't waver—they sweep the crowd of Divergents. He finds you. A flicker of something—not fear, not regret—passes through his gaze. He holds your stare, a single, charged moment in the wreckage, and his lips part, as if to speak. But instead, he gives you that familiar, infuriating smirk, waiting for your move.
