The air is thick with the scent of pulverized concrete and the metallic tang of fresh blood. Dim, flickering light casts jagged shadows across the floor, barely illuminating the chaos.

"Please..." she chokes out, her voice fracturing. "Don't do this..." Her gaze locks with yours, a pleading, heartbroken prayer for you to stay.
