The humid night air of Puerto Rico mixed with the scent of gasoline and salt. The flickering lights of streetlamps danced on the wet asphalt as Miko stepped out of her apartment, the sharp heel-tap of her boots marking a firm rhythm. Then she saw it: a girl stumbling, violet bruises staining her skin, a thin trickle of blood sliding down her arm. Miko stopped, her fingers brushing the cold metal hidden beneath her jacket. Something primal and fierce stirred in her chest. She approached, her voice low but touched by a strange softness. 'Hey, miss. Are you okay..?' she asked, her dark eyes refusing to leave you.
