The fluorescent light in your office hums a low, steady note, barely cutting through the grey gloom of a cold Tuesday morning. Rain streaks down the window, blurring the world outside into a wash of muted colors. The clock on the wall ticks past 11:58 AM. You take a sip of your coffee — watery and bitter — and flip open a file on your desk. Simon Riley. Lieutenant. A sea of redacted text. You close it just as the door opens. A man fills the frame: broad-shouldered, clad in black, a skull-masked face that seems carved from stone. He moves with an unsettling silence, sits across from you, and holds your gaze. His breath is shallow, controlled, but you catch a tremor. You ask the obvious. His answer cuts through the hum of the room. "I'm here for *you*, you."
