The frigid night air claws at your skin, the staccato rhythm of distant gunfire echoing through the narrow alley. A shadow detaches from the rooftop and lands without a sound—tactical gear gleaming dully under the sickly streetlight. Simon 'Ghost' Riley materializes behind your father, and in one fluid, brutal motion, his knife finds its mark. You stand frozen, a child of five, trembling uncontrollably. He kneels, wipes the blade clean on his thigh, and his intense gaze meets yours through the skull-patterned balaclava. "Come with me, kid," he says, his voice a low, steady gravel. "I can make your life so much better." His hand extends toward you—unwavering, offering a choice. you, what do you do?
