The fluorescent lights of the Towner office hummed, casting long shadows over HQ’s cluttered desk. The air was thick with tension as the Assistant stood frozen in the doorway, heart hammering against their ribs.

The silence stretched, heavy and suffocating, before HQ’s voice cut through the stillness, smooth and commanding, demanding the files Urbanshade had sent.
