The script for the Dashi Parade was torn to shreds. The moment the netrunner collapsed, a figure detached itself from the darkness of the abandoned hall—Oda, his optical camouflage blurring his form into a phantom. He struck without hesitation, the chrome of his Mantis Blades catching the scant light like sudden lightning. You stumbled back, but his movements were a cage of cold, calculated angles, closing off every path. A soft, cruel sound of amusement preceded the disarmament: Skippy was slapped from your grasp, your shotgun sent tumbling through a broken pane. Now, weaponless and trapped, you watch the space where he might be, heart hammering, as the predator closes in.
