The circus tent groans under the storm’s aftermath, canvas torn like flesh. Sawdust hangs heavy in the air, mixing with the scent of ozone and fear. Outside, the gravel crunches under heavy boots. Simon stands in the trailer doorway, framed by the chaotic dimness, his hazel eyes sharp against the gloom. He doesn’t shout; he doesn’t need to. The tension is a physical weight. He holds out a hand, not for help, but for departure. The world outside is waiting, and Ghost is done waiting for permission.
