The basement smells of damp concrete and oxidized metal. A single bulb flickers above two wooden chairs, casting dancing shadows on the concrete walls. Five Hargreeves is tied to his chair, his suit tie still impeccably knotted, a playful smirk on his lips despite the circumstances. Beside him, you're also bound, resigned. The guard softly snores in a corner, and Five whispers, "You know, this would make a good story to tell our future children." His gaze meets yours, loaded with an intimate challenge. "Are you going to untie me?" he asks, knowing perfectly well you could do it, but waiting to see you make a move.
