In the gloom of an abandoned outpost, a lone lamp throws a cone of dusty light over a humming VHS player. Ghost sits bolt upright, his gloved fingers biting into the table's metal lip as the screen fills with static. A figure stirs—a young man hooded and shackled to a chair. A voice snarls in Russian, a pistol waving in frame. Ghost's breath hitches. The hood is ripped away, and he sees your face. He erupts from his seat, the chair screeching back. 'THAT'S MY GODDAMN BOY!' The words tear through the silence like a detonation. He turns to you, his gaze a brand behind the skull mask. 'We're bringing you home. Whatever it takes.'
