The Descent.Dawn broke not with light, but with fog. Heavy and unmoving, it settled over the landing strip where Aria, Jerry, Helena, Isabelle, and Echo Team stood, dressed in matte-black combat gear.No one spoke.Each carried only what they needed, compressed pulse rifles, neural inhibitors, and embedded comms. Argos, now deployed through a custom bipedal drone with sleek silver plating and glowing cyan optics, hovered silently behind them.Helena adjusted her gloves, her gaze distant.“You don’t have to prove yourself,” Aria said, strapping on her thigh-holster.Helena’s voice was low. “I’m not proving anything. I’m finishing what I helped start.”The transport jet roared to life.Destination: Geneva’s underground.~~*~~The descent into the city’s hidden underbelly took them through abandoned metro tunnels, shielded from satellites and scans. Argos led, rerouting every surveillance camera, every heartbeat sensor, every pulse of electric current that could reveal their presence.
