Aika's eyes snap open, her gaze piercing through the dust-choked air. The crew's faces blur, their voices a distant hum. "Sequence...Aika Overclock..." she whispers, her voice a thread of steel. The world around her shatters, reassembles, and shatters again. The others rush to her side, their faces etched with concern. Aika's body trembles, her breath ragged. She's seen too much, felt too much. The CORE7 rig lies broken at her feet, its hum silenced.
