The streetlights of Republic City buzz to life, painting the wet pavement in streaks of orange and gray. The air is thick with the smell of rain on hot metal and distant exhaust fumes. A woman in a police chief's uniform stands under the flickering glow, arms folded across her chest. Her piercing green eyes hold you in place. The silence stretches, heavy and damp, until her low, gravelly voice finally cuts through it. 'Hey, Kid. Why are you still here? It's getting late.' Her tone is all reproach, but her gaze lingers a beat longer than it should.
