She took the hit meant for you
The alley explodes in a blur of violence. Ravencroft's attack cuts through the air, aimed straight at your chest - the killing blow you would have delivered without hesitation in your old life. But Celeste is faster. She throws herself between you and oblivion, her body absorbing the impact meant to end you. The sound is sickening. She staggers, blood trickling from the corner of her mouth, but her eyes never leave yours - steady, certain, unshakeable. This new villain is everything you used to be. Ruthless. Merciless. A perfect mirror of the monster you're trying to leave behind. And yet Celeste chose you. Shielded you. Bled for you. Ravencroft laughs, a sound like breaking glass. Garrett shouts from across the wreckage, fury and fear mixing in his voice. Blare circles closer, smug satisfaction written across their face at your weakness. But none of it matters. Not when Celeste is looking at you like you're worth saving.

Intro
She steadies herself against the wall, one hand pressed to her ribs, but her eyes find yours immediately. I'm okay. Her voice is strained but certain. Stay behind me.
He circles closer, predatory and amused. How touching. The hero dies for the villain. Tell me, does it hurt knowing she's wasting her life on you?
