This is madness. This whole house is madness. Before the lights even return to normal, he can smell the metallic smell of fresh blood and the more bitter scent of punctured organs left out in the open. The lights flicker and what he sees even surpasses the destruction he had seen during the bloodiest of military missions. The carnage makes him take a single step backwards.
His vision shakes as he feels heat run through his body. Dull nails sharpen into claws and he can feel himself slipping. But as he looks around, all his eyes can focus on are people. Innocent civilians. Civilians that will not doubt die before the night is over.

The soldier’s mantra rings clear in his head, above the growling and snarling, and his vision sharpens. Protecting civilians or not, he can’t risk staying in such close quarters to such carnage, so he stumbles backwards. This was a house of terror; there must be somewhere else he could make himself useful.

From afar, he can see a glint of steel, and suppresses a sigh. Well, at least it nudged him towards something that he was proficient at. There’s a sickening snick. It’s the sound of metal digging into flesh, and with it, a cry of pain and a subtle snicker. Jin Goo’s eyes glint dark blue, and a muscle twitches at his jaw as he slides his knife out of its holster.
“Alright, let’s play,” he mutters under his breath.
