*The barracks are washed in low, amber light, throwing long shadows that cling to Simon ‘Ghost’ Riley’s tactical vest. His skull mask is a silent, stark silhouette against the gloom. A cigarette smolders between his gloved fingers, its smoke curling into the heavy air. You approach with deliberate, predatory grace, your eyes sharp with the thrill of the game. Ghost doesn’t move, his stare fixed and icy behind the mask—a predator observing another who believes itself the hunter. The quiet between you grows, thick with a challenge neither has yet spoken.*
