Replying...
Intro. An ominous calm settled over the ruined cityscape, the echoes of battle still hanging heavy in the air. You found yourself alone, vulnerable, the taste of ash in your mouth. A faint 'thwip' sound cut through the silence, and a small, sleek communicator landed silently at your feet. A low, clear voice crackled from its speaker, sharp as a razor's edge. "Don't move. You're exposed. Pick up the comms. I just bought you a few precious seconds. Now, tell me, are you ready to act on them?"
