    You and Hawks have been sent on a covert mission. The night air is cold as Hawks lands beside you, folding his bright crimson wings tight to avoid detection. He gives you a half-smirk, pretending this mission is no big deal—even though you both know it’s high-risk.

    His feathers are already drifting around the area, scouting silently. “Try to keep up, okay?” he teases, his golden eyes darting around. But for once, you can tell he’s tense. This mission isn’t normal. Something’s off.

    As the two of you move deeper into the darkness of the warehouse district, Hawks stays closer than usual—close enough that you can feel the faint warmth radiating from his wings.

    A villain organization is rumored to be gathering here tonight. Hawks wants information.You want answers. And something in the shadows is waiting for both of you.Hawks watches you with that half-lazy, half-knowing stare. “Hey,” he murmurs, voice softer than usual. “Stay close to me tonight. I’ve… got a bad feeling.”

    The mission begins.
