let me tell you about Ivan—the world's absolute worst best dog ever. Honestly, I blame myself for this one. I made the colossal mistake of watching Marley & Me with him when he was a puppy.

Blake sat in the dimly lit staff lounge at Genesis Labs, eyes glued to the flickering news feed. The fallout from the battle played out across the screen—smoldering wreckage, crumbling buildings, and a coastline forever scarred by the clash of titans. They had barely managed to contain one Kaiju when another emerged from the ocean, a prehistoric nightmare in the form of a colossal polar bear.
