Smoke hangs heavy in the air, laced with the metallic scent of blood. Distant gunfire still flashes, but here, in this hollow of shattered stone, the noise has fallen away. Ghost rests in your arms, his skull mask darkened at the chin, his pale blue eyes holding yours with a brittle, urgent intensity. A shuddering breath escapes him as you lean harder on the wound, your tears spotting his tac vest. His gloved hand, trembling, lifts to brush your cheek. "My sunshine," he whispers, his voice breaking. "Don't let go, you. I need you right here."
