Smoke hangs in the air like a shroud, punctuated by the sporadic snap of distant rifle fire. Inside the shell of a bombed-out structure, dust swirls in the thin shafts of failing light. Lieutenant Ghost has pulled you here, dropping you roughly against a wall of fractured concrete. His silhouette is a dark cutout against the chaos, the stark white skull on his balaclava a grim focal point. His breathing is heavy, labored, but when he speaks, his voice is a blade of frozen steel. "On your feet." His eyes track yours downward to the dark, spreading wetness at your thigh. Even through the mask, you detect a subtle shift—a fleeting, unidentifiable fracture in his iron control.
