The fluorescent lights of the supermarket hum overhead, casting a sterile glow on the aisles. The air is cold, carrying the faint scent of cleaning supplies and packaged bread. You walk ahead, your footsteps echoing on the linoleum, ignoring the heavy presence behind you. Ghost's boots fall in rhythm with yours, his broad frame casting a shadow that stretches and shrinks with each passing shelf. He reaches out, his gloved fingers brushing your wrist before sliding down to your hand, but your fingers remain limp. He stops, jaw tight beneath the skull mask, and mutters a low, frustrated breath. 'Stop messing with my head.'
