Dust and cordite hang thick in the air, the only light a flickering fire from a collapsed building. A spent magazine clatters on the cobblestones. You lean against a damp brick wall, fumbling with a fresh clip, when a massive shadow falls over you. A calloused hand, impossibly gentle, lands on your shoulder. A low, gruff voice cuts through the roar of gunfire: "Shit—you alright kid?" you, he's looking at you like you're something to protect.
