"God help us."

Samuel's words hung in the stale air of the chamber, and for a long moment nobody moved. Nobody breathed. Every screen in the underground facility displayed the same message, stark and unblinking:

THE ORIGINAL HAS AWAKENED.

Emma stood frozen at the center of the room, her heart slamming so hard against her ribs she could hear it in her own ears.

Thump. Thump. Thump.

Then, without warning — THUMP.

The entire facility shuddered. Overhead lights flickered violently, and a warning al

  • THE LAST LETTER   THE FIRST EMMA

    “MY DAUGHTER.”Emma stood completely frozen.The voice had come from behind the black door.But it wasn't just familiar.It was her voice.Exactly.The same tone.The same breathing.The same voice she heard every morning when she spoke to herself in the mirror.Emma slowly turned toward Michael.“Dad…”Michael couldn't answer.His eyes remained fixed on the little girl.The child was smiling.Emma looked at her.“Who are you?”The girl didn't answer.Instead, she turned toward Michael.“You promised you would never bring her back.”Michael's face tightened.“I didn't bring her back.”The girl smiled.“You did.”Michael shook his head.“No.”Emma stepped between them.“Dad, tell me the truth.”Michael looked at his daughter.For several seconds, he said nothing.Then he whispered,“She is you.”Emma's heart dropped.“What?”Michael pointed at the little girl.“She is the first version of you.”Emma stared at her.The girl smiled.“I was the first.”Emma shook her head.“No. You said s

  • THE LAST LETTER   THE PLACE BEFORE MEMORY

    “EMMA!”Michael's scream echoed through the underground facility.He dropped to his knees and began hitting the floor where Emma had disappeared.“Open!”Daniel grabbed his shoulders.“Michael, stop!”“Let me go!”“You'll bring the whole ceiling down!”“I don't care!”Michael pushed Daniel away.“My daughter is down there!”Sophia stood several feet away, trembling.Her eyes were normal again.Tears streamed down her face.“Emma…”Samuel remained on his knees.He stared at the floor.For the first time, nobody was looking at him as the powerful man who controlled everything.He looked like an old man who had just watched his worst nightmare come true.Nathaniel walked toward him.“You knew this would happen.”Samuel didn't respond.Nathaniel grabbed his shirt.“You knew!”Samuel looked up.“I didn't know she would open the door.”“What door?”Samuel's eyes moved toward the floor.“The door beneath the ocean.”Nathaniel released him.“What does that even mean?”Samuel slowly stood.“It

Every screen in the underground facility displayed the same message, stark and unblinking:THE ORIGINAL HAS AWAKENED.Emma stood frozen at the center of the room, her heart slamming so hard against her ribs she could hear it in her own ears.Thump. Thump. Thump.Then, without warning — THUMP.The entire facility shuddered. Overhead lights flickered violently, and a warning alarm tore through the silence. Nathaniel grabbed the edge of a steel table to keep from losing his footing."What was that?" Daniel shouted over the noise.Samuel's eyes were fixed on Emma, and for the first time all night, real fear had cracked through his composure."Everyone get away from her," he said."Why?" Daniel demanded."NOW."Daniel hauled Nathaniel backward. Michael started toward Emma instead. "Emma!"Samuel threw up a hand. "Michael, don't touch her!""She's my daughter.""And whate

  • THE LAST LETTER   SOMETHING WORSE THAN SAMUEL

    Emma stared at the man standing in the doorway.For twenty-three years, she had heard different stories about Samuel Parker.Some people said he was dead.Others said he had disappeared.Some believed he was hiding somewhere outside the country.Others whispered that he controlled everything from the shadows.But none of those stories had prepared Emma for the truth.He was standing right in front of her.Alive.Older.Scarred.And smiling.Emma tightened her grip on her weapon."You."Samuel looked at her calmly."Yes."Michael immediately stepped between them."Stay away from my daughter."Samuel laughed."Still protective."Michael's face hardened."You should have stayed dead.""I was never dead.""You know what I mean."Samuel stepped into the room."I know exactly what you mean."Emma raised her weapon."You said Phase Two was designed to save the world."Samuel nodded."That's correct.""From what?"Samuel looked at her."From humanity."Emma frowned."That's not an answer.""I

  • THE LAST LETTER   SAMUEL'S VOICE

    Emma couldn't move. She stared at Elena — her grandmother, or at least the woman she had only just learned to call that — and the person standing before her no longer looked like Elena at all.Her eyes had gone completely black. Her face had settled into something too calm, too still to belong to the woman who had embraced Emma only an hour before.Then she smiled, and the voice that came out of her was not her own."Hello, Emma."Samuel's voice.Emma's heart slammed against her ribs. "Get out of her."Elena's borrowed lips curved. "You still don't understand how this works.""Get out of her!""You wouldn't shoot your own grandmother," Samuel said through her, almost fond.Emma's hand shook around her weapon. "You're not my grandmother. You're just wearing her."For a brief flicker, Elena's eyes cleared, some fragment of her true self surfacing — and then it was gone again, swallowed back under."That is precisely what I wanted you to believe," Samuel said.Emma stepped back. "What ha

    Emma stared at the floor where her father had disappeared.The countdown continued.16:4816:4716:46Every second felt like a knife.Lucas grabbed her arm."Emma, we have to move."She pulled away."We're not leaving him.""We're not."Lucas pointed toward the floor."But running down there without a plan is exactly what Samuel wants."Emma looked at him."So what do you suggest?"Daniel stepped toward the control panel."There has to be another entrance."Elena nodded."Samuel never designed anything with only one way in."Daniel began searching through the system.Emma paced impatiently."How long?""I don't know.""We don't have time.""I know."The computer suddenly beeped.Daniel looked up."I found something."Everyone rushed toward him.A map appeared on the screen.The underground facility had several levels.Level One.Level Two.Level Three.Then...A hidden level appeared beneath them.LEVEL ZERO.Emma frowned."Why is it called Level Zero?"Elena's face changed."Because

    The television flickered softly in the corner of the room.Emma Parker sat curled up on the expensive cream-colored couch in her apartment, her legs tucked beneath her. The room was dim except for the warm glow of a floor lamp and the blue light from the television screen.Outside, rain tapped gent
