Blind Spot
When the system can’t see you, it hunts harder.
Our operative slips into a dead broadcast tower—the city’s only blind spot—chased by drones that don’t need eyes to kill. Glitched rules rewrite in real time: witness override active, execution on standby. A rogue signal offers one impossible choice: reset the system (and risk death) or escape (and be erased). Static closes in, halos flicker, and the cost clock hits zero.
One shot each. Witness required. No collateral.
In the dark between cameras and conscience, she presses a button we don’t see—and the world blinks.
