Chapter 15: Betrayal in the RanksThe sun, now fully risen, was a harsh, unforgiving disc in the morning sky. Kael moved through the city like a ghost, a solitary figure amidst the growing morning bustle. The familiar sounds of traffic, distant market chatter, and the calls of street vendors felt alien, a stark contrast to the echoing screams and collapsing concrete of hours prior. The **God-killer**, a constant, weighty presence at his hip, hummed with a quiet power that seemed to vibrate in sync with his own exhausted heartbeat.*They're still searching for you,* Vex'thul observed, his voice a low, gravelly rasp in Kael's mind, a constant counterpoint to the God-killer's ancient resonance. *Their patrols are tightening. You are now public enemy number one, Kael Draven.*"I gathered that," Kael muttered, pulling the hood of a stolen sweatshirt lower over his face. He'd ditched his ruined clothes for something less conspicuous from a discarded laundry bag. The lingering scent of smoke

# Chapter 14: Angelic InterventionThe abandoned subway station hadn't seen a train in twenty years, but it still echoed with the ghost of human activity. Kael sat on a rusted bench, watching Sarah sleep fitfully against a concrete pillar. Her failed enhancements had left her with strange dreams—visions of places that didn't exist and people she'd never met."She's dreaming of the collective," Raphael said, settling beside him. "Even with Peterson's network severed, some connections remain."*The angel's been watching her.*"Is that why you're really here?" Kael asked. "To study the enhanced?"Raphael was quiet for a long moment. When he spoke, his voice carried the weight of millennia. "I'm here because of what happened during the first war. Something that Heaven tried very hard to forget."*The first war.*"Tell me."*Finally, some answers.*"The war between Heaven and Hell wasn't about good versus evil, as your human stories claim. It was about control. About who would guide humani

# Chapter 13: AbominationKael walked out of the dying facility, past the bodies of the enhanced soldiers and the wreckage of Peterson's dream. The God-killer hummed with power at his side, and for the first time since this nightmare began, he felt ready for whatever came next.Behind him, the facility finally collapsed, burying the horrors within. But ahead of him, eleven more facilities waited, and somewhere in the darkness, Azrael was beginning Phase Two of his plan to remake the universe.*The war is just beginning.*"Then let's make it count."But as Kael took his first steps away from the ruins, the ground beneath his feet began to tremble. Not the aftershocks of the building's collapse—something else. Something that made the God-killer's humming shift to a warning tone.*Wait. Something's wrong.*The rubble behind them shifted, concrete blocks rolling aside as if pushed by invisible hands. Through the settling dust, Kael could see a faint bioluminescent glow emanating from the

# Chapter 12: The Doctor's ConfessionThe emergency lighting cast everything in hellish red as Kael pulled Sarah Matthews from her dying cocoon. The girl's body was wracked with convulsions, her skin mottled with the telltale signs of failed enhancement—veins that glowed with fading bioluminescence, cybernetic implants that sparked and died."Sarah, can you hear me?" Kael cradled her against his chest, feeling how light she'd become. The enhancement process had been consuming her from the inside out.Her eyes fluttered open, no longer the warm brown he remembered from school but a sickly yellow that flickered like a dying bulb. "Kael? Is that... is that really you?""I'm here. You're safe now."*She's dying,* Vex'thul observed with clinical detachment. *The enhancement process has gone too far. Her nervous system is shutting down.*Around them, the facility continued its death throes. Sparks showered from severed bioluminescent veins, and the remaining cocoons cracked open like grotes

# Chapter 11: Enhancement ProtocolThe Peterson Research Facility looked different in the pre-dawn darkness. Where once it had been a sterile corporate building, now it pulsed with an otherworldly energy that made Kael's enhanced senses recoil. The very air around the structure seemed to writhe with malevolent purpose."He's turned the entire building into a conduit," Raphael observed, his angelic nature allowing him to perceive the spiritual corruption that saturated the place. "Every floor, every room—it's all connected to him now."*The enhancement chambers,* Vex'thul noted grimly. *He's using them to create something new. Something worse than enhanced soldiers.*From their position on the adjacent rooftop, Kael could see through the facility's windows. What he saw made his blood run cold. The building was filled with cocoon-like structures, each one containing a partially transformed human. But these weren't the crude cybernetic enhancements Peterson had been working on—these were

# HELLSPAWN HUNTER## Chapter 10: Sins of the FatherThe abandoned warehouse on the outskirts of the city looked like every other derelict building in the industrial district—broken windows, rusted metal siding, and weeds growing through cracks in the concrete. But this one held secrets that had been buried for twenty years.Kael stood in the doorway, his enhanced vision picking out details in the darkness that would have been invisible to human eyes. Overturned filing cabinets, scattered papers, and in the center of the room, a desk that had been deliberately preserved, as if someone had been expecting visitors."This is where your father conducted his investigation," Raphael said, materializing from the shadows with that unnerving angel grace. "He rented this space under a false name, used it as a base of operations when he was tracking Azrael."*The scent of old blood,* Vex'thul observed. *And something else. Fear. Lots of fear.*"Someone died here," Kael said."Several someones. Y
