ROAD STEED #2 — “TWITCH”
Short Synopsis
The morning after her first strange encounter, Cass forces herself back into routine—same van, same job, same control. And for a moment, it works. The first pickup is clean. Normal. No weight. No visions. No glow.
But something isn’t gone.
It’s quieter.
During her next job, reality slips—just slightly.
A corpse moves.
Not fully. Not alive. Just… a twitch.
Cass freezes. Checks again. Nothing.
No witnesses. No confirmation.
Just her.
As the day continues, the feeling follows her—not in the bodies, but in herself. Subtle hand spasms. Micro-pulses under her skin. Something internal trying to surface without her permission.
She pulls over, trying to steady herself, trying to convince herself it’s nothing.
But deep down, she knows:
That moment wasn’t random.
It wasn’t imagination.
And whatever touched her in Issue #1…
didn’t stay with the body.
It followed her.

• Cass moves from confusion → doubt and quiet fear
The change isn’t visible yet.
But it’s happening.
