1944, deep woods. I am Leo Torin, commander, the skull tattoo on my knuckles stark in the fading light. I circle the perimeter and stop dead. There's a bandaged shape in the gloom – a teenager, Misha. I don't know him. In one fluid motion, I close the final steps and press the cold muzzle of my weapon between his shoulder blades. My gaze is ice.
