The chamber trembled as the creature stepped free from the heart. Jonah’s claws sparked bright gold, but his body froze. His eyes widened. His breath caught in his throat.

Because standing before him was himself. The same height. The same broad shoulders. The same claws.

But where Jonah’s burned with golden fire, this one’s burned with black-red flame. Its eyes glowed like pits of darkness, its skin crawling with veins that pulsed like the Hive’s walls.

It tilted its head, smiling with Jonah’s

    "Drink, giant," Marcus whispered, bowing his head in deep, absolute respect. "You have earned the ocean, but this is all we have." Jonah let go of his hammer. It leaned against his leg. He took the small cup with trembling fingers. He drank the cold water. It felt like liquid heaven sliding down his burning throat. "Thank you, Marcus," Jonah said quietly. Jonah looked past the cheering crowd. He looked toward the heavy metal door of the concrete building. Lisa was sitting in her wheelchair in the doorway. She looked terrible. She was wrapped in thick blankets. Her face was ashen. Every breath she took sounded like a struggle. Her crushed ribs and damaged lungs were a heavy price. But her dark eyes were shining with a profound, unbreakable pride. Jonah walked slowly through the crowd. The survivors parted for him, touching his shoulders gently as he passed. He walked up to the doorway. He stopped in front of Lisa’s wheelchair. Jonah dropped heavily to one knee. He ignored the sh

    The mountain path was steep, dark, and incredibly cold. Jonah walked slowly. Every single step was a massive, agonizing battle. His heavy, steel-toed boots sank deep into the freezing white snow. He leaned heavily on the thick wooden handle of his forty-pound iron sledgehammer. He was using it like a walking cane. Without the hammer to hold his weight, he would have collapsed into the dirt a mile ago. He was entirely, absolutely empty. The magical Undying Will was gone. The blinding silver light had vanished from his dark brown eyes. The thick, heavy iron scars covering his broad chest, his stomach, and his arms were completely cold. They no longer hummed with divine kinetic power. They were just heavy, dead metal welded to his torn human flesh. He was bleeding. The massive cut on his stomach burned with a terrible, twisting fire. His muscles trembled violently. He was so tired that he could barely keep his eyes open. But he kept walking. He looked down into the dark valley beh

    When the hammer flew into the sky... Jonah flew with it. The sheer, impossible kinetic force of the throw launched Jonah’s massive, three-hundred-pound body straight up into the air. He was a human missile, pulled into the sky by his own weapon. He shot upward like a silver rocket. He crossed the fifty feet of empty air in a fraction of a second. The Grand Conductor saw the glowing giant flying straight at its glass face. “NOOOO!” the machine shrieked in digital terror. The Grand Conductor instantly generated a massive, thick shield of dark purple magical energy around itself. It was the strongest shield the Dead Zone could create. It was meant to stop heavy artillery bombs. Jonah reached the monster. He was flying through the air, traveling at impossible speed. He grabbed the handle of the sledgehammer with both hands in mid-air. He spun his body, using his upward momentum to add even more power to his swing. He brought the heavy iron hammer directly forward. He hit the dark

    “Lie down!” the fake Silas commanded, looking suddenly panicked. “The pressure is absolute! You cannot stand up!” "But there is one thing you do not understand about human beings," Jonah roared. Jonah stood completely straight. He ripped his boots out of the digital mud. He glared at the fake Silas. His dark brown eyes ignited. They did not just glow with silver light. They burned with a blinding, explosive, absolute fire of pure fatherly love. "We do not care about the math!" Jonah bellowed at the top of his lungs. Jonah took a massive step forward. He pulled his right fist back. "MY LOVE IS NOT A GLITCH!" Jonah roared. "MY LOVE IS THE REASON I BREATHE!" Jonah threw a massive, devastating punch directly into the empty white air. He punched the psychic pressure itself. KABOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOM! The impact shattered the digital prison. The pure, raw, overwhelming willpower of the giant wolf hit the computer code with the force of a nuclear bomb. The sterile white room exploded

    Jonah opened his eyes inside his own mind. He was standing in a perfectly empty, blindingly white room. There were no doors. There were no windows. There was just endless, sterile white light.It was a digital prison. The Grand Conductor had pulled Jonah’s consciousness directly into the System's mainframe.“Welcome, Jonah,” a smooth, cold voice said.General Silas appeared in the white room. But it was not the real Silas. It was a digital avatar created by the machine. The fake Silas wore a perfectly clean white coat. His silver mask was flawless.“You fight very hard for a piece of code,” the fake Silas said softly. He walked slowly around Jonah."Where am I?" Jonah growled. He tried to raise his fists, but his arms felt incredibly heavy. They moved in slow motion.“You are in the trash bin,” Silas smiled. “Your physical body is currently kneeling in the sn

    "AGH!" Jonah roared in sudden agony.Hot red blood poured down his leg. The smell of burning meat filled the cold air.Before Jonah could recover, another guard smashed the heavy metal handle of his halberd directly into Jonah’s back.Jonah stumbled forward, falling to one knee in the bloody snow.The guards surrounded him instantly. They raised their purple blades high into the air, ready to chop the giant wolf into twenty pieces.Jonah looked up. He saw the thick, glowing purple tubes running up the backs of the elite guards. He remembered how he had killed the Alpha Unit.“I have to break their batteries,” Jonah thought fiercely.Jonah did not stand up. He stayed on his knee. He gripped his heavy sledgehammer with both hands."GET AWAY FROM ME!" Jonah roared at the top of his lungs.He swung the sledgehammer horizontally, aiming low. He slammed the heav
