The burned chamber of the tower had fallen silent.
Fragments of broken machinery lay scattered across the floor while the holographic files still floated in the air.
Images of Spilri’s experiments continued to play.
Bodies collapsing.
Children inside capsules.
Creatures screaming inside cages.
The atmosphere was suffocating.
Jun stood frozen, staring at the holographic projections.
Her eyes slowly filled with tears.
Nearby, Lara typed quickly on her tablet, her fingers trembling as she searched through the files.
Jun’s voice broke the silence.
“Lara…”
“Find something for me.”
Her voice shook.
“The Day X file.”
“The day the ten children of the Rock Tribe arrived.”
“I need to know.”
Lara swallowed hard.
“Okay… just a second…”
Her fingers moved rapidly across the holographic interface.
Then she froze.
A file appeared on the screen.
Exp-ROCHA-Infantil-010
Video logs.
Images.
Medical reports.
Lara’s voice became almost a whisper.
“I… found it.”
Slowly, she handed the tablet to Jun.
But she lowered her head.
She already knew what was inside.
Jun stared at the screen.
Her breathing stopped.
“No…”
Her voice cracked.
“No… this can’t be…”
The recordings began playing.
Images of the ten children imprisoned in glass chambers.
Failed experiments.
Medical notes.
Each file marked with the same cold result.
“Subject terminated.”
Jun collapsed to her knees.
“They killed them…”
“All of them!”
The Panther and Serpent warriors rushed to hold her as she screamed.
Liu stepped forward and wrapped his arms around her tightly.
Stolen from its rightful place, this narrative is not meant to be on Amazon; report any sightings.
“I’m so sorry,” he said quietly.
“But I swear…”
“They will never do this to anyone again.”
Alpha’s Decision
The holographic feed continued broadcasting everything to Organization Alpha.
Inside the command chamber, the directors watched in stunned silence.
Laura wiped tears from her face.
“These monsters tried to play god,” she said.
“For every life they destroyed… this must end.”
Vander stepped forward, raising his voice.
“Listen to me!”
“Warriors of faith!”
“We have seen the truth with our own eyes!”
His voice echoed across the command room.
“Now there are only two paths!”
“Save the prisoners… and destroy the heart of these demons!”
Behind him, thousands of agents responded in unison.
“HONOR!”
“HONOR!”
“HONOR!”
Leon’s Dilemma
Leon stood quietly among the shattered machinery.
The flames from the broken laboratory reflected in his brown eyes.
He looked toward Lara.
Then toward Liu.
Then toward Jun.
“If I leave this place,” Leon said slowly,
“Iris and the children of áris will reach Gin first.”
“That could decide the entire war.”
He paused.
“But saving the prisoners could save thousands of innocent lives.”
For a moment, the weight of the decision filled the room.
Then Vander spoke through the hologram.
“Leon.”
“Go after Gin.”
“We will free the prisoners.”
“This is a matter of honor.”
Jun wiped the tears from her face.
Her grief had turned into fury.
“I’m going with them,” she said.
“I won’t rest until every prisoner is free.”
Liu stepped beside her.
“I’m going with Jun.”
“She won’t face this alone.”
“This is the mission I will lead.”
Leon olhou para ele por um longo momento.
Ent?o ele assentiu com a cabe?a.
“Muito bem, Liu.”
“Cuide dela.”
“Salvem essas pessoas.”
“Eu resolvo isso com a Gin.”
Lara aproximou-se dele e segurou seu bra?o.
“Até o fim”, disse ela.
"Estou com você."
O Exército se move
Do lado de fora da torre, as for?as da Organiza??o Alfa estavam reunidas.
Quinze mil agentes estavam de prontid?o.
Quando a ordem foi dada, suas vozes se ergueram como um trov?o.
"LIBERDADE!"
"LIBERDADE!"
"LIBERDADE!"
Tambores de guerra ecoavam pelo campo de batalha.
Caminhos Divididos
Dois exércitos come?aram a se movimentar.
Liu e Jun lideraram milhares de agentes em dire??o aos setores prisionais de Spilri.
A miss?o deles era clara.
Libertem todos os cativos.
Enquanto isso, Leon e Lara corriam pelos corredores em chamas da torre.
As asas negras de Leon se abriram parcialmente atrás dele enquanto chamas iluminavam seu caminho.
à frente deles, Iris e seus irm?os já estavam abrindo caminho mais profundamente na estrutura.
Ambos os grupos estavam se dirigindo para o mesmo destino.
Gin.
A voz do narrador ecoou suavemente.
“Divididos pela dor…”
“…e movidos pela esperan?a…”
“…eles marcham em dire??o ao destino.”
Um caminho foi trilhado para salvar os inocentes.
O outro procurou confrontar o amago das trevas.
Em algum lugar no interior da torre, Gin esperava.
E a corrida para alcan?á-lo havia come?ado.
