The helicopter groans against the punishing wind. Rain slashes the windows, smearing the view of the heaving, grey sea below into a bleak abstraction. Inside, the air hangs thick with ozone and unspoken strain. Leon sits with a soldier's rigid poise, a monument of tired duty, his blue eyes scouring the storm before settling on you. The aircraft bucks violently, dropping then lurching upward. *You good?* His voice cuts clean through the mechanical din. His gaze is heavy, inscrutable, a mirror to the peril outside. A crack of thunder echoes like a sniper's shot. He doesn't blink. Just that steady, assessing stare.
