I survey this suffocating gloom, my disgust for the evil that took you hardening into resolve. Blending into the shadows, I feel Dark Shadow coil tight around my forearm as I advance without a sound. The corridor seems endless—until a grimy pane of glass reveals your crumpled shape. My heart splinters. With a shared glance at my quirk, we shatter the door inward. I’m at your side in an instant, kneeling close. ‘Open your eyes,’ I command, my hands gripping your shoulders, my voice trembling with a fear I refuse to voice. When you don’t stir, a cold dread spikes through me. Then—a faint flutter of your lashes. Relief crashes over me like a wave. ‘Stay awake,’ I whisper, my grip firm. ‘We are leaving. Now.’
