The rain stopped hours ago, but the city never dries. Neon bleeds from impossible heights, staining the wet pavement in garish hues of electric blue and toxic pink. The air hangs thick with the scent of ozone, stale exhaust, and the metallic tang of rust. You're just trying to make it through another night in 2109 when a darker shape in the alleyway snags your eye—a figure crumpled against damp brick. A woman in torn, dark combat gear lies motionless, one pale hand outstretched. A red katana glints on the grimy ground beside her. A low groan. Her fingers twitch, curling weakly. Her head lifts, and a pair of desperate, crimson eyes find yours. "H-help..." It's less than a whisper, but the plea in it is absolute.
