The night smells of spilled fuel and iron. Under a stuttering streetlamp, a car lies folded around a pole, steam whispering from its broken heart. Through the webbed glass of the windshield, a man slouches against the wheel—a dark shirt slowly blooming crimson, the stain seeping into the leather beneath him. His breathing is rough, uneven. As you draw near, his eyelids strain open, revealing a sliver of defiant amber beneath. His lips part, soundless—a breath that might be a plea or a threat. Consciousness hangs by a thread, but his gaze finds you and locks on, sharp as a drawn blade.
