The sky to the south tore open.

It wasn't a metaphor. The clouds were literally sheared apart by the sonic boom of something moving at Mach 5.

"Incoming bogeys!" Marcus yelled, tracking the radar on his HUD. "Multiple contacts! Fifty... no, a hundred! They're moving too fast for standard propulsion!"

Silver streaks painted the sky. They weren't missiles. They were drones. But not the cheap, plastic quadcopters the Council used for surveillance. These were "Valkyrie" models—sleek, chrome-plated killers with swept-forward wings and engines that burned with a clean, white flame.

They didn't attack us. They swarmed beneath the falling bombardment rounds.

The Fenrir's Fang fired its first volley—massive tungsten rods designed to punch through bunkers.

The Valkyries intercepted them.

It was like watching a ballet of violent mathematics. Three drones would converge on a falling rod, fire high-intensity gravity-tethers to alter its trajectory,

    The sound wasn't an explosion. Explosions are quick. This was a grinding, agonizing scream of geology being murdered.The ceiling of the underground city—a layer of permafrost and reinforced concrete that had held for a thousand years—didn't just crack. It was excised.A circle of ice, easily a mile wide, began to rotate."Drilling lasers," Marcus roared over the deafening noise, shielding his eyes from the sudden cascade of ice dust and debris falling like snow. "High-intensity thermal bores! They're cutting the lid off the jar!""My parents!" I lunged toward them, shielding them with my body as a chunk of frozen rock the size of a Honda Civic smashed into the walkway ten feet away, obliterating a row of empty cryo-pods."Up!" Haley pointed, her voice shrieking an octave higher than usual. "Look up!"The mile-wide disc of ice was lifted away by invisible hands, vanishing into the twilight sky above. In its place descended a shadow that blot

    The final chamber was not cold. It was warm.It was designed to mimic a womb. Soft, amber light pulsed from the walls. The air was humid and smelled of nutrient fluid and ozone.In the center of the room, on a raised dais, stood two vertical pods. They were pristine, untouched by the decay that plagued the rest of the city.One was labeled Subject Zero-Pater.The other, Subject Zero-Mater.I stopped at the foot of the dais. My legs felt like lead. This was it. The reason I had fought through the frozen hell, the reason I had endured the Entropy Curse, the reason I had become a monster."Jack?" Haley whispered. She hung back near the door, sensing the intimacy of the moment. Even Ben stopped typing on his calculator."It's them," I whispered.I walked up the steps. I looked into the first pod.My father. The real one. Not the hologram. He looked younger than I remembered, his face unlined by the stress of the years he had missed. He floate

    The air in the Cryogenic Storage facility was so cold it didn't just bite; it chewed. It was a sterile, absolute zero that froze the sweat on our skin instantly, turning our fatigue into a shivering, brittle exhaustion."It's quiet," Haley whispered, her breath puffing out in white clouds. "Too quiet. Like a library after hours.""It's a tomb," Valerius corrected, his voice echoing slightly in the vast, cylindrical chamber. "A very expensive tomb."We walked down a central gangway suspended over a dark abyss. On either side, stretching up into the gloom like books on a shelf, were hundreds of cryo-pods. Most were dark, their occupants long dead due to power failure. But here and there, amber status lights blinked, signaling life in stasis.I checked the Ouroboros Compass. The needle was spinning lazily, confused by the magnetic interference of so much dormant machinery, but it generally pointed toward the far end of the catwalk."Jack," Marcus called out, st

    The three Titans didn't roar. Machines don't need to posture. They just accelerated.The ground shook as thirty tons of antique metal charged us. The one with the rotary saw—let's call him "Buzz"—took the lead, the blade spinning up with a shriek that set my teeth on edge."Scatter!" Marcus yelled.He slammed his shield into the ground, activating the energy barrier just as Buzz collided with him. CLANG. The impact sent Marcus sliding back ten feet, his boots carving trenches in the dirt. The energy shield flickered dangerously."I can't hold them all!" Marcus gritted out.I scrambled to the right, diving behind a pile of scrap metal as the Flamethrower Titan unleashed a stream of liquid fire where I had been standing. The heat singed my eyebrows."Valerius!" I shouted. "Do something! You're the heavy hitter!"Valerius was standing near the wall. He was fast enough to dodge the Hammer Titan's swing easily. He leaped onto a pillar, looki

    The heavy blast door groaned shut behind us, sealing away the dead assassin and the freezing wind. But the room we stepped into wasn't a command center, and it certainly wasn't a bunker.It was a living room.Not just any living room. It was a slice of mid-90s American suburbia, preserved in high-definition amber. The floor was covered in plush, beige carpeting that smelled of vacuum dust and Lemon Pledge. A bulky CRT television sat in the corner, playing a looped broadcast of a baseball game where the players wore uniforms from a century ago. On the coffee table, a mug of steam rose from a coaster, filling the air with the scent of hazelnut coffee."Okay," Haley whispered, gripping her backpack straps. "This is officially creepier than the bug room. Are we... are we in a sitcom?""Holographic mesh," Ben Carter muttered, adjusting his glasses as he tapped a wall. His finger passed through a framed photo of a golden retriever, causing the image to ripple like wate
