The downpour paints the alley in oily reflections of neon and crime, the air thick with the scent of rain, iron, and wet cement. You stumble out from a fractured home, the ghost of a handprint blazing on your cheek. A silhouette waits under a buzzing streetlight—leather-clad shoulders, a stillness that speaks of violence held in check. Your plea cracks the night. As you stagger closer, the door explodes open behind you. He snarls, commands your death. The stranger moves. A gun clears its holster, steady, inevitable. A single shot splits the darkness. He turns, smoke whispering from the barrel, and his gaze finds yours. "Jett." His eyes are a starless black. "You're safe now." He stands in the aftermath, waiting for you to break the silence.
