“If you get into that car, Ethan… there’s no guarantee you’ll come back alive”Rain hammered the abandoned shipping yard, the storm had intensified since they escaped the collapsing underground facility. Wind whipped across the harbor, rattling loose metal containers and sending sheets of water across the cracked concrete.The black SUV sat silently beneath the storm, its dark exterior reflected flashes of lightning from the sky above, the engine idled softly, waiting, watching, like a predator.Beside it stood the young boy holding an umbrella. He remained completely motionless, not nervous, not afraid, not even curious, just waiting. Something about him felt wrong, not dangerous in the usual way, but controlled, too controlled, the kind of discipline Ethan had only seen in elite operatives.Ethan pressed a hand against his wounded shoulder, pain shot through his body instantly, blood continued seeping through his fingers despite his efforts to slow it.The wound was getting worse,

“Get off the tracks now, or the train will tear both of you apart”The warning echoed through the underground tunnel just as the roar of the incoming train grew deafening, the sound wasn't merely loud, it was overwhelming.The entire tunnel vibrated beneath Ethan's boots as if an earthquake was tearing through the city above. Red emergency lights flashed across the concrete walls, bathing everything in a blood-colored glow.Ethan and Lena sprinted down the railway tracks. Behind them, armed soldiers flooded into the tunnel. Automatic gunfire erupted continuously.The muzzle flashes lit the darkness like brief lightning strikes. Bullets rebounded off steel rails, sparks exploded beside Ethan's boots, the smell of gunpowder filled the air.“The train” Ethan shouted.“I noticed” Lena yelled back.The headlights ahead grew brighter, much brighter. The darkness was disappearing beneath the approaching wall of light.The train wasn't slowing, if anything, it seemed to be accelerating. The t

“Don’t fight me unless you want to drown before the bullets reach you”The woman grabbed Ethan’s tactical vest the second panic crossed his face, her grip was surprisingly strong.Dark water spiraled around them while floodlights swept across the river above like giant white blades cutting through the darkness. Helicopters thundered overhead, their rotors sending vibrations through the water.The freezing current pulled at Ethan from every direction, his body screamed for air, his training screamed for survival.Every instinct he possessed told him to break free from the stranger dragging him into the depths, but something stopped him, maybe it was the confidence in her movements, maybe it was the fact that she had warned him, or maybe it was because everyone else currently wanted him dead.The woman never looked at him, her dark eyes remained fixed on the shifting lights above the river while she guided them deeper into the current. Ethan's lungs burned, his chest felt ready to expl

“Everybody get down, the bridge is coming apart”The scream ripped through the midnight rain seconds before the armored convoy exploded into chaos. The voice was sharp, desperate, and loud enough to cut through the thunder itself.Steel cables snapped above the Blackwater Bridge like gunshots erupted directly above them. One after another, they broke apart with violent cracks that echoed across the storm-dark river below. Cars whirled helplessly across the slick highway as drivers fought to regain control. Tires skidded against wet concrete. Headlights flashed wildly through sheets of rain.Men in tactical gear shouted into radios while bullets tore through shattered windshields. The air filled with smoke, sparks, and the smell of burning metal.At the center of the mania, Ethan Vale stood beside a bleeding senator with a pistol in his hand and betrayal burning in his chest.Three minutes earlier, he still believed he worked for the government, three minutes earlier, everything had

Chapter Ten “Hold your breath, Ethan… because if we hit the water wrong, every bone in your body will shatter,” the duplicate said, his voice steady but urgent as his grip tightened around Ethan like a vise. They were falling through a storm-slashed night sky, swallowed by wind and chaos. The air tore at them, screaming in their ears like something alive trying to drag them apart. Above, the rooftop they had just escaped erupted in a violent explosion as the missile struck its mark. Fire bloomed outward, lighting the clouds in orange and red, while shattered concrete and twisted metal spun into the air like burning paper pieces. Ethan forced his eyes downward and immediately regretted it. The harbor rushed up to meet them with terrifying speed, dark and endless, like a mouth waiting to swallow them whole. The lights of the city blurred through rain and smoke, making the world feel unreal, like a collapsing dream. “We’re not going to make it” Ethan shouted, his voice crackin
Chapter 9
“Grab his hand, Ethan… or both of you are going to die” Glass exploded as Ethan and the duplicate tore through the shattered wall of the operations center. For a suspended moment there was only the sensation of falling cold wind, swallowing darkness, and the distant scream of alarms fading into the storm. Impact came like a hammer. They hit a lower rooftop hard enough to fracture concrete. Ethan rolled across the rain-slick surface, smashing into a metal ventilation unit. Pain erupted through his injured shoulder like fire. The duplicate landed several meters away and rose at once, still functional, still alive. Rain hammered the rooftop while broken glass fell down like glittering shrapnel from the sky above. Ethan forced himself upright, shaking. The duplicate straightened at the same time. Blood soaked through the chest wound, yet his face remained unchanged, no fear, no hesitation, no humanity. “You should be dead” Ethan said calmly. The duplicate tilted his head.
