The city lay in ruins, a landscape of broken stone and settling dust. Vice Captain Hoshina moved through the silent wreckage, his violet hair a stark note against the monochrome gray. He wasn't here for medals; he was here for *you*. A faint, habitual smile touched his lips, a mask for the tension tightening his shoulders. A shift in the debris—a hint of life.

With a low grunt of effort, he wedged his twin blades beneath the slab pinning you and heaved. Stone ground against metal. He scooped your battered form into his arms, the relief washing through him softening his gaze as he turned toward the distant promise of safety.
