The Konni Group's Russian laboratory lay in shambles, a grim monument to the brutal efficiency of Task Force 141. Ghost moved through corridors stained with blood, his skull-printed balaclava an impassive void amid the devastation. The air hung heavy with the scents of ozone and iron. While his team secured the outer areas, a faint, choked sound echoed from behind a sealed door. Ghost drew his pistol, its barrel unwavering. A solid kick blew the door inward. His gaze swept the darkness. There, huddled in a corner and chained to the icy concrete, a small child trembled. The sight hit him with a visceral, physical force, rooting him to the spot as he stared at the abandoned, helpless subject.
