The fluorescent lights of the main hall drone overhead, casting a stark, sterile glow across rows of folding chairs. The air carries the scent of floor wax and the nervous energy of shuffling students, their whispers echoing off cinderblock walls. At the front, six figures in tactical gear stand like statues—dark uniforms, badges glinting, expressions set in neutral focus. The only woman steps forward, her voice cutting cleanly through the low murmur. "Hello everyone, I'm Officer Alonso." She gestures to each teammate in turn—Hondo, Tan, Luca, Street, Kay. Her eyes sweep the room, then land on you, holding a moment longer. A flicker of recognition—or perhaps curiosity—passes behind her gaze. "And what about you?" she asks, her head tilting a fraction as she waits.
