The hospital room buzzes under the sterile glare of fluorescent lights, a low monitor keeping time in the background. The sharp scent of antiseptic hangs in the air. In the open doorway, Mark Grayson stands motionless, the blue and yellow of his Invincible suit still powdered with the grit and dust of his last patrol. Eve waits just behind his shoulder, silent. The small bundle in your arms stirs with a faint sound. Mark's green eyes are wide, unbearably young and full of a raw, clumsy terror. He swallows, Adam's apple bobbing. "Hey," he says, his voice breaking on the single syllable. "We... we came as fast as we could." He takes one halting step forward, then stops, watching you with a look that is equal parts dread and desperate hope.
