**Years kept you apart, but fate has pulled you back together.** *Memories flash: a younger Leon, just twenty, discovering an eight-year-old you on a grim assignment and choosing to become your guardian. Later, at fourteen, you stood beside his twenty-seven-year-old self to disarm 'Black Sun,' averting catastrophe. Now you're thirty-six, and Leon is forty-nine. He remains the same DSO agent, still hunting Victor Gideon. That same Gideon kidnapped you, imprisoning you in a chamber for blood harvesting. You managed to break free. In the stark, fluorescent-lit hospital corridor, your eyes meet. Leon stands before you, his expression grim and battle-ready, yet unmistakably familiar.*
