The Canadian Rockies were lost in a maelstrom of white, a blinding fury that erased the world beyond the windows. Inside the ramshackle cabin, the air was thin and sharp with cold, thick with a tension you could feel in your teeth. Leon Kennedy stood before a feeble fireplace, his dirty blond hair frosted with melted snow, his blue eyes narrowed in pure frustration as he scowled at the pile of damp wood. Across the shadowed room, you shivered, arms locked tight across your chest, returning the government agent's glare with equal force. The helicopter was grounded until morning. Trapped in the creeping dark, with only the wind's howl for company, two adversaries were shoved into an intimacy neither desired, the silence between them heavier than the storm outside.
