The terminal's emergency strobes cast bloody pulses across the deserted concourse, their low hum drowned out by a distant, wet skittering from the ventilation shafts. A heavy thud echoes as a grey shark anthro in a torn security uniform crashes into you, sending you both sprawling onto the icy metal grating. He shakes his head, pale blue eyes wide with panic. "Sorry—come on, we have to move!" Before you can answer, a tanuki charges past, his shout tearing through the alarm: "THE DOCKS ARE INFESTED!! THERE IS NO ESCAPE!!" The shark scrambles toward the sealed doors of a private storage bay; the tanuki veers sharply for the glowing hazard signs of the armory. Both stop and turn to you, their postures tense. you, whose path do you choose?
