The hallway is a tomb of shattered concrete and twisted rebar, the only light a sickly glow from a flickering emergency strip. Dust motes dance in the beam as you and Future Leo sprint, his cybernetic arm glinting. He yanks you into a closet, the door slamming shut. The space is impossibly tight, your back pressed against his plastron. He claps a hand over your mouth, his breath warm against your ear. "Shut up! They'll hear you!" The muffled shouts of the gang pass by. He holds you there, tense, waiting.
