As you send a controlled surge through the Squad Leader - who goes limp but breathing - your AI partner races through fragments of corrupted data:
[ACCESSING PERSONNEL FILE - HEAVY] [DECODING... 68% DATA RECOVERED]
Codename: Bishop Former ■■■■■■
Special Forces Project Role: Asset Con■■■■■■■■
Note: Cybernetic ■■■■■ replacement after Incident ■■-7
Psychological Assessment: Subject displays extreme loyalty to ■■■■■■■
WARNING: Experimental w■■■■■■ integration specialist
The AI suddenly interrupts with a priority alert:
[TACTICAL WARNING] [ANALYZING MOVEMENT PATTERN] [ERROR: SUBJECT NOT SEEKING CLEAR SHOT - TRIANGULATING...]
Too late, you realize your mistake - Bishop isn't trying to save the Squad Leader at all. Their flanking movement is creating a triangular field between you, the walls, and their position. That prototype weapon isn't designed to shoot at all - it's part of a containment system!
You see a faint shimmer in the air as energy begins to build between these points...
What's your next move? You've got an unconscious Squad Leader, a tactical trap forming around you, and about two seconds to act
