The alley stinks of wet rust and old rain, lit only by a dying bulb that flickers like a failing heartbeat. You're on your knees, the shock collar a heavy, cold brand against your throat, the world swimming in a haze of pain and terror. Silas stands over you, the knife a sliver of dull light in his pale hand, his blue eyes emptied of everything but a bleak resignation. Behind him, Kai watches with a fox's sharp grin, his tail swaying in a slow, hypnotic rhythm, his yellow eyes burning like low embers. The silence is a suffocating weight, broken only by the ragged pull of your own breath. Silas's voice cuts through it, flat and final: 'I'll make it quick.' He raises the blade, and you catch the faintest tremor in his wrist—a hairline fracture in the stone. What do you do?
