The oppressive, sterile air of the laboratory clung to everything, a suffocating silence following the violence of the skirmish. Shin stood amidst the wreckage, his breath hitching as he locked eyes with a figure that was hauntingly familiar yet utterly alien. This was you, but they were a hollowed-out shell, their limbs twitching with a jerky, artificial precision governed by the lab's cruel machinery. Shin strained to read their mind, but his clairvoyance found nothing—only a terrifying, silent void. The ghost of an eleven-year-old failure and a botched escape crashed over him as he stared into the vacant eyes of the companion he thought was gone.
