BOOM!The vault shook violently.Stone shattered from the ceiling.Lorrie screamed as Lorenzo grabbed her and pulled her behind a massive pillar."Leo!""I'm here!"His voice came from somewhere behind them.Lorrie turned.Leo was on the floor, but Elias had already pulled him away from the collapsing wall."Are you hurt?"Leo shook his head."I'm okay."Then another explosion rocked the chamber.BOOM!A cloud of dust filled the air.Through it...A silhouette emerged.Tall.Powerful.Unnatural.The machine.The Perfect Heir.Its eyes glowed red.Its face looked exactly like Lorenzo's.Even its voice was identical."Brother."Lorenzo stepped forward."You're not my brother."The machine tilted its head."I possess your blood.""I possess your memories.""I possess your instincts."It smiled."I am everything you could have been."Lorenzo raised his weapon."And I am everything you will never be."The machine suddenly disappeared.A second later—CRASH!It slammed into Lorenzo.He flew

The cavern fell into a suffocating silence.Lorenzo stood frozen, shielding Leo against his side. Sophia watched the Perfect Heir with narrowed eyes, while Amara, standing beside her ancient stone coffin, observed everything with a gaze that seemed to pierce through time itself.The Perfect Heir took one slow step forward, his movements eerily fluid."I found you," he said.Lorenzo’s finger tightened instinctively around the trigger of his weapon. "Stay back."The machine offered a chilling, unnatural smile. Its black eyes reflected the pulsing blue light that saturated the cavern walls. "You still don't understand. I wasn't sent here to kill Leo.""Then why are you here?" Lorenzo demanded.The machine glanced toward Amara. "To wake her."Amara’s expression darkened instantly. "No."The machine smiled wider. "Too late."Suddenly, the six ancient coffins lining the perimeter began to glow with a blinding intensity.One. Two. Three. Four. Five. Six.Ancient symbols etched into the stone

"RUN!"Rafael's voice thundered through the collapsing fortress.Lorrie didn't think. She grabbed Leo. Lorenzo grabbed her. "Everyone out!"The floor cracked behind them: CRAAACK! A section of the ceiling collapsed, and dust filled the corridor.Mira grabbed Isabella's hand. "Which way?""East passage!"They ran. But Lorrie suddenly stopped. "Lorenzo!"He turned. She was staring at her glowing palm. The seven-pointed symbol was brighter than before. "I can hear them.""Who?""The Guardians."Lorenzo looked worried. "What are they saying?"Lorrie closed her eyes. Thousands of voices filled her mind, but one voice was louder than the others—her own:> «Open the door.»> Lorrie opened her eyes. "No."Lorenzo stepped closer. "What?""They're asking me to open the door.""Which door?"Lorrie looked behind them. "The one Rafael is trapped behind."Mira's face changed. "You can't."Lorrie stared at her. "Why?""Because the door isn't only a door.""What is it?"Mira swallowed. "A seal.""Se

"LEO!"Lorrie's scream tore through the darkness. She ran toward the place where her son had disappeared, but Lorenzo caught her around the waist."Don't!""Let me go!""Lorrie, stop!""That's our son!"She fought against him, tears streaming down her face. "I have to find him!""I know.""Then let me go!"Lorenzo pulled her into his arms. "I will find him.""You promise?"He looked directly into her eyes. "With my life."Lorrie broke down against his chest. For a moment, neither of them spoke. Then Lorenzo kissed her forehead. "We're bringing him home."She nodded. "Together.""Together."Three days. That was all they had. The mysterious voice had made it clear: Three days to find the Second Guardian.But nobody knew where Leo had been taken.Gabriel worked frantically at the remaining computers. "Nothing."Adrian slammed his hand against the table. "Search again.""I have searched everything.""Then search harder."Daniel looked at the screen. "There has to be something."Rafael sto

"Lorenzo!"Lorrie's voice shattered the silence of the chamber. She dropped to her knees beside him, her hands pressing desperately against his chest.Blood poured through his fingers, staining her clothes, warm and thick.Massimo rushed over, his face drained of color. He dropped beside his son and tore open Lorenzo's shirt. "Get pressure on the wound!"Lorrie pressed her hands over the entry point. "Stay with me. Look at me, Lorenzo."Lorenzo's eyelids fluttered. His breathing was shallow, his lips losing their color. "Lorrie...""I'm here. I've got you.""The... the children..." He coughed, a thin line of blood escaping his mouth. "Protect them.""Don't talk like that. You're going to protect them with me." She looked up, tears blurring her vision. "Adrian! Elias! Do something!"Adrian dropped to one knee, pulling a medical kit from his tactical vest. He pressed a heavy gauze pad over the wound. "It's a deep puncture. Clean, precise. Like a blade of pure energy."Rafael stood nearb
