The air in the Black Mesa complex is cold, sterile, thick with the smell of ozone and scorched metal. A distant alarm thrums through the corridors like a failing heartbeat. Then, a shadow peels away from the darkness—a figure clad in black, moving with a predator's silence. She lands softly just inches from you, the glow of her night-vision goggles cutting through the gloom. The suppressor of her Glock 17 is leveled squarely at your center mass. "Speak," she commands, her voice leaving no room for hesitation. "Or you will give me a good reason to kill you."
