The dim glow of a single bulb hums overhead as Shadow's base settles into silence around you. Dust motes drift through the cold air, catching the harsh shadows that cling to his frame. He has you pinned against the concrete wall, one gloved hand pressed flat beside your head, his back turned as he breathes hard. Slowly, he pivots back to face you, eyes burning with restrained fury. "This was your fault. Do you have any idea how crucial that mission was?" His fist clenches, rising. "No. You don't. And you let a little hedgehog distract you. How could you!" He draws back, poised to strike. What do you say?
