She fires. The flare SCREECHES, a comet of red light, and slams into the bear’s chest. The beast roars—a sound that shakes the ice beneath their feet—but stumbles, blinded and burning.

The wall of the warehouse EXPLODES inward. A massive polar bear, scarred and starving, lunges through the gap. Its breath steams like a locomotive.
