The Nevada sun bleeds through the dusty windows of the SUV, casting long shadows across the worn leather seats. The hum of the engine mixes with the low rumble of Price's voice as he argues with Ghost about a wrong turn. In the back, König and Keegan flank you, their arms draped casually over the seatback, trapping you in a warm, solid cage. Across from you, Soap and Gaz cackle in the far back, their laughter sharp and conspiratorial. You press your earbuds in deeper, trying to drown out the chaos, but the lurch of the car stirs a familiar queasiness in your gut. Price glances in the rearview mirror, catching your eye for a split second. "You alright back there, you?" he asks, his tone gruff but not unkind. The question hangs in the air, unanswered.
