Chapter 9
Mark’s pulse thundered in his ears as he rushed toward the beast, every step heavier than the last. The creature’s glowing eyes tracked his every movement, its massive frame shifting and rippling like a shadow that could never quite be pinned down. The air was thick with malice, each breath harder to take as Mark drew closer. His mind was clear, but his body was frozen with the realization of just how dangerous this was.Lucia’s serum was in his hand, its green glow shimmering like a faint beacon in the chaos. He had no idea whether it would work.He didn’t even know if it would get close enough. But it was the only chance they had.Behind him, Zero had taken up position, his blade raised and ready to strike at the creature’s vulnerable side. But Mark knew the fight wasn’t won by brute force. It was in the precision, in finding the one weak point that could bring the beast down. And that point, according to Lucia, was its heart.Mark’s mind raced with calculations. The heart had to

The creature’s massive form loomed in the doorway, its body seemingly made of shadows, its eyes glowing a sinister red. Mark could feel the air grow heavy with every step he took, each one sending a ripple of fear through his chest. The walls around them groaned under the pressure as the beast’s monstrous silhouette filled the hallway, its hunched frame bending low as it stalked into the room.Zero’s hand tightened around the hilt of his blade, his usual bravado replaced by a rare look of dread. “This isn’t what we signed up for,” he muttered, more to himself than anyone else.Lucia’s face was pale, her lips trembling. “I didn’t think it would really work. I never thought it could become this, this thing.” She shook her head as if trying to deny the reality unfolding before her. “I only wanted to fix things, to stop it from going wrong.”Elara, standing in the far corner of the room, looked eerily calm. “The beast was never meant to be a success. It was a failure, a mistake that sho

The shadows in the doorway stretched like fingers reaching for the light. Elara’s silhouette stood tall.Her presence commanded the room even amidst the chaos. Mark’s heart raced, and his instincts screamed to run, but his feet were rooted to the spot.Lucia’s grip on his hand tightened as she backed away from the wreckage of the door. “Elara, what are you doing here?”Elara stepped into the room, her gaze sharp and unyielding. “I’m here to end this,” she said, her voice as cold as the steel that lined her weapon. “You’ve both done enough damage.”Mark’s chest tightened. “Enough damage?” he repeated, struggling to understand. “You don’t get to make that call. You don’t know anything about.”“I know everything,” Elara cut him off, her eyes narrowing. “I’ve been watching all of you. Watching the lies, the manipulation, the destruction. You think this is about your past? About some miracle you’ve been chasing?” She laughed bitterly. “No, Mark. This is much bigger than any of you.”Mark t

The silence in the room felt suffocating. Mark’s eyes locked onto Lucia, his chest tightening. She stood there, a mix of disbelief and uncertainty etched across her features. Every step he took towards her felt like an eternity, each moment pregnant with the weight of everything they had both lost. “Lucia,” Mark said hoarsely, his voice trembling. “It’s really you. After all this time, it’s really you.”But she didn’t answer. Her eyes darted between him and Subject Zero, her hand still hanging mid-air. “I don’t know who you are anymore,” Lucia whispered, her voice quivering. “The man I knew, he’s gone. The man standing in front of me now,” She swallowed hard, her gaze flickering between Mark and Zero. “He isn’t who I remember.”Zero’s lips curled into a smile, as though relishing every moment of this confrontation. “You see, Lucia,” he said, his voice low and mocking, “you’re caught between the truth and your memories. But I’m here to remind you what you forgot.”Mark felt his pulse
Chapter 5
Lucia hadn’t said a word since returning to the safehouse. Lena, her assistant turned confidante, watched with growing concern.As Lucia sat on the floor, the mysterious locket open in her hand, the photo inside still trembling between her fingers. “Lucia,” Lena said gently. “You need to tell me what happened.”Lucia looked up, eyes haunted. “He found me.”Lena stiffened. “Mark?”Lucia shook her head. “No. The other one. The Phantom.”Lena’s face paled. “He’s supposed to be locked under the ice vaults at Site Zero.”“He’s not anymore.”Lucia stood and handed the photo to Lena. “This was us, before. Before Marvin. Before my memories were altered.”Lena stared at the photo. “Lucia, that woman is you. But the timestamp, this picture is thirteen years old.”Lucia nodded slowly. “Exactly. I wasn’t supposed to meet Mark until three years ago.”Meanwhile, Marvin HQ, Bio-Systems Division, Elara, stood before the board, all twelve members masked, silhouetted behind frosted glass. None of them
Chapter 4
Lucia barely slept. The memorial room haunted her, rows of the dead, standing behind glass, reborn but broken, and Mark, Mark wasn’t just one of them. He was the first. Prototype Null. Unstable. “Wake him, and you risk the world.”The words Elara didn’t say screamed louder than the ones she did. By sunrise, Lucia had made a decision. She would confront her husband.Back at the Mansion, Mark was in the sunroom, dressed in black slacks and a linen shirt, trimming bonsai trees with a level of calm that only made Lucia’s nerves fray more. She didn’t waste time. “I know what you are.”He paused. “Do you?”“I saw the memorial room.”Silence. The snip of scissors. “I saw the photos. The names. The version of you marked Unstable.”He looked up. “And did you see what came before that?”Lucia stepped forward, voice trembling. “You died. That’s what came before.”Mark nodded. “Yes. I did.”Flashback, 12 Years Ago. A war zone. Not with bullets, with viruses. A village ravaged by a strain known on
