Blood spilled, slow and thick, dripping down his side to stain the floor. “Again,” I ordered. The claws drove in again—this time across the ribs, just under the bone. The sound was sickening, the way skin peeled open, tendons trembling beneath the pressure. He coughed, clenched his jaw tighter, but still gave us nothing. The second man was next. Broad-shouldered, dark-skinned, his eyes like burning coals as they pulled him up beside the first. He didn’t fight. Didn’t resist. Just looked at me like he already knew what I was.

Being part of a big incident and having that weird carving on my scar, looking for the boxes that doesn't really exist in the first place… I never knew that a bigger and heavior thing would fall upon me. “Yes mom?” “What do you mean yes mom? Why are you here in the roof? Don't you understand the word quarantine? Grounded?” “I am no longer a child mom” “What? Watch your words kiddo. You are still young, not because you wake up the exact date you are stated to be an adult that means you are already capable. Did you forget that yiu have been unconscious for years?” Mom was right. I am still grounded even tho I am already twenty two. After that day I had a last conversation with Cavian, things..

I'll bring the safe back; you can deal with it yourself! A chill ran through me. She was coming back. The safe that contained everything—my proof—might slip out of my control. I hung up and turned to Will, expression grave. "The plan's changed." His eyes darkened. "She's returning?" "Yes." I drew a steady breath. "She can't stand the countryside."

But instead, Mira-Eve’s gaze held the same strange, unblinking calculation Savannah had seen in her before—the gaze of someone not entirely child, not entirely innocent. Then—across the flooded boulevard—a giant news screen crackled to life, its light casting warped reflections across the rippling water. Weston’s face filled the screen. His voice, smooth and surgical, cut through the storm as though the rain itself bowed to it. "The twins… were only prototypes." His eyes, even on the broadcast, seemed to seek her out. "Phase Two… is already alive." The words landed with a weight heavier than the storm. Savannah’s skin prickled with cold that had nothing to do with the rain. It was as though

Second, by robbing Fire Beast Cores from people who already had them. Of course, the second way was the easiest, but someone had to use the first way if they wanted to use the second way. So people like this would usually wait for others to collect Fire Beast Cores first. After reaching the end of the time, they would come out and ambush them. But there was a clear risk in using the second method, which was when the person who wanted to be robbed had greater strength. The second way could boomerang on the one using it if they didn't spot the victim properly.

I whispered. I saw them. Rows upon rows of glass canisters. Inside weren't just data drives—they were bodies. Versions of us that had "malfunctioned." Some were missing limbs. Some had their eyes sewn shut with fiber-optic wire. "Iteration 14 tried to flee to the Andes," the drone droned. "Iteration 42 tried to kill the Creator. Iteration 89 tried to commit suicide together." The hologram shifted to a pair of bodies in a canister labeled 2004: TESSA & MARCO. They were holding hands, their skin grey and preserved in formaldehyde.

CRITICAL COLLAPSE IN NINE MINUTES. "We don't have time for a reunion," Caleb growled, his mercenary instincts instantly locking back into place as he hauled her to her feet.

It’s executing a full fortress self-destruct to ensure the Generation Two data doesn't leave the trench." "It wants to bury Arthur's future with us," Ava said, her voice turning into pure, unyielding steel. "Let’s go tear its heart out."

“John is coming back. Trouble is coming back. Plans are being made to take over Silver Moon, and they will destroy it and its people. You're in danger. You need to find the truth. You need to awaken the truth and awaken Athena before it's too late. There isn't any time left, Violetta. Use your time wisely.” Her last words echoed but this time in reverse. The echoes were getting louder and louder, like they were coming from all directions. Before me, the light was suddenly dropped to the floor, her remains in molten form and slowly slipping to where I half sat on the floor. I screamed at the horrific sight, and that's when I woke up.

Because in the glow of the monitors, one message blinked across every screen in red text: “PROJECT REBIRTH: PHASE II ACTIVE.” Elena’s world shatters as her supposedly dead sister reappears alive, altered, and hinting that both of them were part of the original Project Rebirth. But now that “Phase II” has been activated, Elena realizes her second chance at life wasn’t an accident at all… it was a countdown.

Where are you going? "I noticed other things getting hard ; and I really want to give this trying for another baby a chance properly. " Angelo looked at me gingerly and rubbed his temple's. " I'm seeing a different side to you and I don't want to let it out." "We have to celebrate our second engagement properly. I love the emerald cut diamond and the inscription inside .
