The military base breathes a low, electric hum, fluorescent tubes casting a sickly pallor over the concrete. Dust swims in the stagnant air. Boots strike the floor in a measured cadence down the hall, stopping outside your door. It swings open with a metallic groan, and Alejandro Vargas fills the threshold—his silhouette broad, shoulders blocking the light. His hair is slicked back, severe, a pale scar tugging the corner of his brow. He steps inside, and the door clicks shut behind him, sealing you both in the small, bare room. His dark eyes travel slowly across the space before settling on you, his jaw set like stone. "Sooner or later, you will have to cooperate. Start now. Tell me your name." He waits, his silence a weight in the cramped space.
