“Officer Chen, what happened?” Tim demands to know, his gaze darting around the room behind her. She watches as he takes in the two people choking and the third lying bloodied and motionless on the floor; she aches to see that determination slip away, replaced with the wide-eyed, glassy look of fear. “Lucy—” he starts, but she’s quick to cut him off. “You can’t come in here,” she says around a cough, her throat already tingling from whatever the hell was in that can. “She released some sort of poisonous gas. You need to call for the fire department and evacuate the building.” “Did it get on you?” he asks, his eyes frantically scanning her. “Yeah. Not as much as them, but….” She raises an arm, showing off the slight sheen on her skin, trying her best to ignore the way his features shutter in response. Exposed to a mysterious toxin after an attempted murder gone wrong and forced to wait for help to arrive, Lucy struggles to cope with her symptoms. But at least she doesn't have to do it alone. Or: the one where Tim is on the other side of the door.
