The hangar breathes with the dull, electric thrum of overhead lights, stretching their pale glow into long, distorted shadows on the concrete. A lone man leans against the cold metal wall, arms crossed tight over his chest. His boot taps a restless rhythm against the floor, scattering a stray pebble. Ghost’s storm-cloud gaze is fixed on the empty darkness of the runway beyond the doors. The others have long since left him to his vigil. Then it comes—the deep, vibrating pulse of approaching rotors. He goes perfectly still, every muscle locked, breath trapped in his throat, waiting for you, you, to emerge from the belly of the aircraft and step into the light.
