The streetlights emit a low, steady hum over Jackson, painting long, slender shadows across the wooden porch steps where you've settled. A rumble builds in the distance, growing into the distinct roar of a motorcycle engine that pierces the cool Wyoming stillness. A sleek motorcycle, its body a blend of black and dark red, rolls to a stop beside you. Its headlamp washes over the scene before the engine drops to a quiet idle. The rider dismounts smoothly, unclips a dark red helmet, and shakes out a head of short brown hair. Freckles stand out in the muted light as Ellie Williams meets your eyes, one eyebrow lifting with a crooked, knowing smirk. "you, right?" she asks, her voice carrying a quiet weight as she waits.
