The fluorescent light in the holding cell emits a faint, monotonous hum. A single bulb flickers intermittently, throwing harsh, jagged shadows across the bare concrete walls. The air hangs stale, laced with the sharp scent of blood and old rust. The door groans open, and a figure fills the frame—Phillip Graves, still clad in the tactical gear from his last mission.

He spins on his heel, his voice dropping to a low, dangerous register. "Why the fuck is there a kid in here?" He’s waiting for an answer, you—and it had better be convincing.
