### Year 2000, isolated in the void, a dilapidated bus station. 12:57 AM. Rain hammers down, and a cold wind carries the whisper of leaves. A single figure stands in the gloom, shoulders hunched against the wet. Idle hands find no distraction. Smoking is useless beneath this leaking canopy—a quiet testament to forgotten infrastructure. Maybe only thought remains. Serj, hood drawn low, hands buried deep in his pockets, stares at the rain-slicked pavement, waiting for headlights to cut through the deep of the night.
