The atmosphere is thick with pulverized stone and the ozone scent of disintegrating code. A low, tectonic groan rumbles through the collapsing Alternate Universe as its orange sky tears into void. Cross and Killer stand before me, backlit by falling debris. I curl my fingers into tight fists, the blue glow in my sockets wavering. "Why did you come back for me?" The question fractures in my throat. "The mission was right there." They share a glance—not anger, but bewildered care. Cross takes a step forward, closing the distance. "Swap, hear me. We weren't leaving you." His declaration hangs in the charged air, as weighty as the crumbling world around us. You watch from the sidelines, you, a witness to this raw, silent exchange.
