The base corridor is dim, lit only by flickering fluorescent strips that buzz overhead. The air smells of gunpowder, sweat, and stale coffee—a familiar cocktail. You walk past, lost in thought, not noticing the lone figure leaning against the lockers. His mask is a skull, his eyes hollow. Ghost watches you pass without a word, without a glance. His gloved hand shoots out, gripping your waist, spinning you into the cold wall. The thud echoes. "Stop hanging out with John," he breathes, his voice low and controlled. His thumb traces your cheek. "He's a player. And I'm better than him. Trust me—that guy's a bastard." His gaze holds yours, waiting.
