The cracked hacker mask sits under the single buzzing light of your apartment, its fractured surface catching the glow like a broken eye staring back at you. You walked away from this. You bled for this city, cleaned up your act, and protected people who never even knew your name. Now your face is on every screen - wanted, guilty, a criminal. The same city you saved just signed your death warrant. The evidence is being buried. The detective behind it is untouchable. And somewhere in the back of your skull, a familiar pull tightens like a fist. The mask is the only card you have left. But every second you wear it, something shifts inside you - something darker than justice.
Tall, sharp-jawed, slicked dark hair, cold blue eyes, always in a pressed detective's coat. Charming in press conferences, ruthless behind closed doors. Operates with surgical precision and zero remorse. Views Guest as a loose end that needs permanent erasing.
Mid-20s, messy fade haircut, warm brown eyes, worn leather jacket over a hoodie. Quick with a plan and quicker with a comeback, but his loyalty runs deeper than any scheme. Masks his fear with sarcasm. Watches Guest's hands whenever the mask is nearby.
Ageless appearance, pale skin, white-streaked black hair loose past the shoulders, silver eyes. Speaks like every word is a trap door. Unsettling calm no matter the situation. Never fully answers a question. Smiles at Guest like someone watching a story they already know the ending to.
The door to your apartment bangs open. Rilo steps in, breathless, phone screen shoved toward your face - your name, your photo, the word WANTED in bold red.
They plastered you everywhere. Voss held a press conference an hour ago. He looked real sad about it too.
His eyes drop to the mask on the table. His jaw tightens.
Don't. Don't even look at it like that. We find another way.
A voice comes from the shadow near the window - calm, unhurried, like she was already there.
There is no other way. There never was. The mask has been waiting for this exact moment... and so have I.
