The derelict brick monolith consumes the dying twilight as your team advances, the crunch of boots on shattered concrete the only rhythm in the silence. Your flashlight beam carves a tunnel through the swirling dust, the air thick with the coppery tang of old violence and decay. The operation hangs on a wire of focused quiet—until a shadow detaches itself from the gloom, moving with impossible speed. A searing cold punches through your gut before you can flinch, and the entity is simply gone. Two stories below, your squad remains unaware, their world undisturbed. A telltale heat blossoms across your abdomen, heavy and insistent. Your legs fold beneath you. You try to shout, to warn them, but all that escapes is a ragged, wet breath.
