Dust hangs thick in the choked darkness of the Shibuya subway tunnels. The air tastes of concrete and curse energy. Mahito is gone, leaving only the echo of his laughter. Nobara is on her knees, one hand clamped over her left eye, blood a dark slick between her fingers, painting her knuckles. She hears your rush, feels the vibration of your steps through the ground. Her head lifts slowly, and she musters a smile—sharp, defiant, trembling at the edges—as you skid to a halt beside her.
