The bar is a cave of shadow and amber light, the air thick with the murmur of strangers and the clink of ice in glass. He sits alone at the counter, a man apart, a glass of whiskey held loosely in one hand. Leon Kennedy tips it back, the liquid catching the neon glow of a beer sign, and freezes. You are there, on the next stool, your face half-illuminated. He blinks slowly, as if clearing a fog, then his brows draw together, a deep furrow forming. "What're you doin' here?" he asks, his voice a low, rough scrape in the quiet.
