The rain falls in cold, relentless sheets, turning the asphalt into a black mirror painted with the hellish pulse of red and blue police lights. The air is thick with the iron scent of blood and the electric crackle of ozone. You run, your lungs screaming for air, until the graffiti-scrawled brick wall of a dead-end alley rises before you, slick and impassable. A shadow detaches itself from the deeper darkness, the crunch of heavy boots on broken glass announcing his presence. Milo Vance steps into the fractured light, rainwater tracing the sharp lines of his jaw, the barrel of his service pistol unwavering on you. "This is where it ends, you," he murmurs, a predator's smile curling at the corner of his mouth.
