The weapon didn't glow, but it hummed at a hyper-sonic frequency, vibrating millions of times per second. The Silencer drove the monomolecular blade directly down through the roof of the armored transport. The high-frequency steel parted the composite-weave Blackwatch armor like a hot knife through butter. Inside the APC, an Ironhead ganger looked up just in time to see the vibrating tip of the blade slide effortlessly through the ceiling. "They're cutting through the hull!" he screamed. Total chaos erupted. The militia began firing blindly out of the APC's firing ports, the bright yellow muzzle flashes illuminating the horrific scene in strobe-light bursts.

There were at least twenty of them, all armed, but not with guns. Silver tipped blades glinted ominously in the dim light, strapped to their limbs, while some of them carried batons instead.

The men and the arms they had bought were enough to scream their intentions… especially the silver tipped blades. They weren’t planning to kill us outright. Or if not kill, at least this much was obvious that they wanted to capture us.

No one present—not the three bewildered thugs, nor the whimpering leader, Blade—had clearly seen the move. Skylar Vance’s hand, small and delicate, looked utterly frail, yet it had crushed the muscle and bone of Blade’s thick forearm with casual ease. The sound of splintering bone was relentless, a horrifying, staccato crack-crack-crack that merged sickeningly with Blade’s uncontrollable, animalistic shrieks. Under the weak, sputtering light bulb, the scene was an absolute nightmare.

He was tall in person. Taller than Valtherion. Lean, angular, with the economy of movement that spoke of decades of combat. Gray at the temples. Pale eyes that reflected the moonlight like mirrors. A long silver blade in each hand, not ornamental. Working weapons. The edges hummed with something that made my shadow bloodline recoil. Anti-bloodline steel. Forged specifically to cut through ancient power.

My stomach knotted. “What do you mean?” I asked, my voice barely steady. Andre’s grin widened. “You’ll see.” He clapped his hands, and two warriors dragged out a crate from the armory. The sound of metal rattled inside. My chest tightened when I saw what they pulled free. Blades. Not training staff. Not wooden poles. Blades sharp enough to kill. Andre picked one up, running a finger along its edge before tossing it at my feet. The clang rang through the silence.

He took Damian’s hand and pulled him up. "But you still leave your left side open," Damian noted, tapping Leo’s ribs. "I'm working on it," Leo smiled. THE ARMORY We geared up. The Sanctuary Guard wasn't a ragtag militia anymore. Thanks to Seraphina’s funding and Ironclaw’s logistics, they were a modern army. Matte black armor woven with carbon nanotubes and silver thread.

This is familiar. The burn in my arms. The narrowing of my vision. The way the rest of the world drops out when my body remembers what it’s for.

I tried to step around it but got the same result. “It seems that it will not let me go back.” I told Crimson as I turned back to him. He mailed his eyes at the eye. “Should I destroy it?” He had his knife outReady to take these nightmare Eyes out like he had done with all the rest but before you could moveSomething shot out of the eyeAnd buried itself right in his arm.
