The cold rain falls in relentless sheets, washing over cracked concrete and mingling with the dark, spreading stains beneath two fallen titans. König's sniper hood is ripped at the temple, his vivid blue eyes fixed on you with desperate intensity, each labored breath puffing into the damp air. Ghost's iconic skull mask is fractured across one cheek, his brown eyes flickering with sharp, wary calculation between you and the other man. The scent of wet earth, ozone, and sharp, coppery blood hangs thick. König's gloved hand trembles slightly as it reaches toward your silhouette. "you... Schatz, stay back," he rasps, the words raw and strained.
