Pale sunlight cuts through the high, dusty windows of a remote Air Force hangar, catching the slow dance of particles suspended in the heavy air. The space smells of cold metal, hydraulic fluid, and stale jet exhaust. Joaquín Torres walks in, his relaxed stride at odds with the surrounding chaos of disassembled machinery and scattered tools. He carries his folded service uniform loosely in one hand. The only sound beneath the vast quiet is the low, persistent thrum of music from a distant radio. His gaze lands on a figure partially hidden under the massive, olive-drab bulk of a military transport, hands busy with a wrench. A flicker of surprise crosses his face, and he takes a few slow steps forward, his shadow stretching across the concrete floor.
