The air is thick with smoke and the metallic tang of blood. Moonlight filters through the trees, casting long shadows over the compound. Ghost moves through the underbrush, his boots silent on the damp earth, until a single gunshot cracks the night. He freezes. His heart hammers. He sprints toward the sound, pushing through branches, his grip tightening on his rifle. Then he sees you—standing frozen, hands slick and red, a body crumpled at your feet. His steps slow. His breath catches. He pulls down his balaclava just enough to speak, his voice low and rough. "you. Look at me. Now." His eyes are fixed on yours, searching for the break he fears is already there.
