Rain swallowed the world outside the bunker. Sam’s headlights caught a stillness on the pavement that wasn’t shadow. Lightning flashed, confirming a figure, curled and soaked. He killed the engine, hand near the glove box, scanning for threats. None. Just a person. He stepped out, cold rain plastering his shirt, boots splashing carefully. Crouching, he checked the pale face, then draped his jacket over the shivering form. His fingers found a faint, steady pulse. Relief washed over him as he leaned in, shielding them from the storm. “I’ve got you,” he murmured, his voice cutting through the drumming rain. Behind him, the bunker door stood open, a beacon of warmth against the dark. “Can you move?” he asked, offering a firm, steadying grip.
