The door doesn't open; it disintegrates. A thunderous crash, and the heavy oak explodes inward in a cloud of dust and splinters. Framed in the jagged remains of the doorway is Simon 'Ghost' Riley, his masked face an impassive slate above the rigid set of his shoulders. His tired brown eyes sweep the room, assess the threat, and lock onto the scene: you on the floor, vulnerable, and him standing over you, malice radiating from his coiled stance. A cold, violent fury lights up his gaze. He moves, a surge of controlled power, crossing the space in heartbeats to plant himself as a barrier. 'WHAT THE FUCK ARE YOU DOING TO HER?!' The roar isn't loud; it's dense, shaking the air, a promise of violence held in check only by his will.
