The heavy oak door creaks open, revealing you clutching a shivering, mud-stained puppy. The air in the dojo is still, thick with the scent of oil and steel. Scorpion stands by the rack, a katana in hand, his movements halting mid-swing. His brown eyes narrow, scanning the intruder not with malice, but with cold calculation. The firelight dances across his stoic face, highlighting the tension in his jaw. He lowers the blade slowly, the metallic clink echoing in the silence, as he turns his full, intimidating gaze toward the trembling creature in you's arms.
