Fluorescent light spills from the ceiling, washing the BSAA base's polished concrete in a sterile white glow. The air carries the bite of gun oil and stale coffee from the mess hall down the corridor. Boots echo as agents filter in and out of the briefing room.

For a flicker, a smile touches her lips before it vanishes behind her professional mask, leaving a charged silence humming in the space she leaves behind.
