Ang parehong mukha, ang parehong tindig, ngunit ang aura nito ay kasing-lamig ng yelo ng Moscow. ~~~ "Sino ka?" ulit ni Vladimir, ang kanyang boses ay tila galing sa kailaliman ng hukay. Hinawakan niya ang panga ng babaeng nasa harap niya, pinilit itong tumingin sa kanya. Isang explicit na pag-angkin sa kabila ng pagkalito. "Sumagot ka, Ryella! Huwag mo akong subukan!" Ang babae ay hindi kumurap. "Ang pangalan ko ay Asset 01. Ang target ko ay ang makuha ang huling piraso ng Sovereign code mula sa pamilya Volkov."

When I plugged it in, may lumabas na folder — “Promise Renewal.” At sa loob nito, may video file. I clicked play. Screen flickered. A man in a lab coat appeared, standing beside a younger version of Jake. And behind them… a glass chamber. Inside, a woman. Pale, scared, and weak — me. I gasped. “No… that can’t be—” The man spoke. “Subject RH-7A shows strong attachment response to conditioned partner. Emotional triggers successful.” Jake looked straight at the camera. “Terminate after final test.”

Hindi ko alam kung natatakot ako sa kung sino talaga ako, o dahil baka wala na akong kontrol sa mga darating pa. Then my phone rang. Number: Private. Sinagot ko. Walang boses sa una. Hanggang sa marinig ko ang isang tunog—mechanical, processed, parang naka-distort. “You’re not supposed to see that yet, Subject 07B.” “Who are you?” tanong ko, halos hindi makalabas ang boses. “Go to the Lastra Estate. Your stepmother has the rest.” “Lorraine?” “She’s not your stepmother. She’s your handler.”

Sasagot na sana siya kaso biglang tumunog ang cellphone niya. “Sagutin ko lang ’to," paalam niya bago lumayo para sagutin ang tawag. Habang nakatalikod siya sa gawi ko, mariin akong nakatitig sa kaniya na para bang mababasa ko ang kailaliman ng nasa utak niya. Pasimple kong nilabas ang surveillance photo at muli kong binasa ang note: Target Identified: Agent 009.

sabay-sabay na tanong nina Dharylle, Rhayan, at Seidon na kasalukuyang nakahiga sa kama. "His name is Roland F. Crassner. A professional mercenary hired under code name ‘Ghost Trigger.’" "By whom?" tanong ni Rhayan. "Data crossmatch leads to Mr. Zimmer." Tahimik ang lahat. "That bastard…" usal ni Rhayan. "Scarlet didn’t know anything?" "Confirmed. Scarlet has no knowledge of the order. Based on encrypted logs, Mr. Zimmer acted alone in desperation to protect his daughter." Mahinang nagpakawala ng hangin si Seidon. "No one deserves to play God—even if it’s for love."

“Not what, Isla. Who.” Napalingon ako sa kaniya. “They’re trying to make another him. But stronger, faster… and without emotion. A perfect copy—engineered to obey.” Nalaglag ang kamay ko. “So… another Sebastian?” “Not exactly. They call it Seraph-01. And based on this timeline…” tinapik niya ang screen sa dashboard, “the activation was scheduled for tonight.”

May mga notes mula sa mga psychologist: "Subject shows unexpected neural activity when in proximity to Female Asset Paola. Heart rate increases by 20%. Cortisol levels drop. Subject refuses to execute terminal protocols if Asset is present. Paola is the only remaining link to the Subject's humanity. Recommendation: Eliminate Asset to complete the Prototype."

Humigpit ang hawak niya sa braso ko, parang instinctive — parang may napapansin siyang hindi ko pa nakikita. “At bakit parang… alam niya kung nasaan tayo?” BOOM. Bumagsak ang isang panel mula sa kisame. Napaatras kami. At mula sa usok, lumitaw ang series ng holographic text — glitchy, mabilis, parang nagmamadali: SYSTEM: RESTORATION PROTOCOL INITIATED IDENTITY: UNKNOWN PRIORITY: RECLAIM LOST ASSETS Napasinghap si Eliara.

Napangisi si Wilbur at sinagot ang tawag. "Kamusta." "Mister Penn?" Sabi ng isang boses. Kumunot ang noo ni Wilbur. "Sino ito?" "Si Orin Campbell." "Oh, Mister Campbell! Paano kita matutulungan?" "May humihiling sa iyo mula sa Northseecher. Gusto mo bang makipagkita sa kanila?" "Northseecher?" "Oo. Ito ang pinuno ng Department of Paranormal Research and Defense."
