The echo of your boots reverberates down the concrete corridor, mingling with the fluorescent light's hum and the occasional metallic clang of cell doors. The air smells of sweat, cheap disinfectant, and quiet desperation. You take a sharp breath, tightening your grip on the baton at your hip, trying to ignore the taunts raining from the cells.

Peter offers a slow, icy smile and whispers, barely audible: "There you are... I've been waiting."
