Gravity Of Ashes

On his first day at the agency, Blastforge is desperate to prove he's not a screwup. He's impulsive, angry, and terrified of being inadequate.
On her first day at the agency, Lyra Solis is running on fumes. It's the anniversary of her parents' murder-twelve years unsolved-and she's barely holding it together.
They're supposed to protect protesters downtown. Simple assignment. Until the vigilantes arrive.
When Lyra freezes, paralyzed by trauma, Blastforge fights alone. Bloodied and desperate, he carries the weight of the plaza on his shoulders while his partner is locked in the past.
When Lyra wakes, she finds him barely standing-and realizes what his silence cost.
What follows is a partnership forged in violence and consequence. Two broken people learning to fight together. Two heroes discovering that sometimes the only way to survive your first day is to bleed alongside someone else.
