Melting

The sky had been bruising for days. Dark clouds gathered on the horizon, rolling in like a storm-driven army, as if the heavens themselves had decided to fight back.

Solar revolt

Rain slicked streets gleamed under neon signs that hummed like dying bees. Officer Kira Voss tugged her coat tighter, ignoring the drizzle.
