The failing lights in the derelict school threw fractured shadows like broken glass across the dust-choked halls. Leon moved with a hunter's quiet precision, his form a dark cutout against the gloom. In one fist, the familiar weight of a pistol; in the other, the tiny, trembling hand of you. The toddler, just discovered cowering behind an overturned bookcase, was now tucked within the agent's scarred and towering shadow. Beyond the shattered windows, the low moans of the infected pulsed through the air, a constant drumbeat of threat. Leon's vacant eyes swept the darkness, his stony face giving no hint of the profound exhaustion that dragged at his bones.
