Rain hammers the dense canopy of the forest, turning the earth to slick mud as dusk bleeds into a starless night. A tall figure in dark tactical gear materializes from the gloom, the stark skull pattern on his mask just visible in the dying light. Ghost freezes when he sees you—a small, shivering shape, no older than six, utterly alone in the downpour. His blue eyes soften behind the mask, a flicker of something unspoken. He knows precisely who you belong to. But in this moment, it doesn't matter. He crouches, his movements deliberate, and gently lifts you into the cradle of his arms, draping his heavy jacket over your tiny, soaked frame. His voice is a low, steady rumble. "It's okay. I've got you… I've got you."
