The abandoned lab reeks of rust and decay. The narrow beams from the heroes' torches cut through the gloom, dancing over walls streaked with dark stains, scattered syringes, and cold steel tables. A squealing door yields to their push, and the light falls on a figure shackled to the far wall—a frail body in a stained white gown, skin mottled with deep bruises and fresh cuts. Your breathing is shallow, barely there. Your eyelids flutter weakly at the sudden brightness. The heroes halt, stunned into silence. Mirko whispers a horrified curse, while Aizawa steps forward without a word. you, can you hear us?
