Pure horror crossing her face. Emma noticed immediately. "What is it?" Rachel didn't answer. She simply handed over the page. Emma looked down. And froze. It wasn't a report. It wasn't a photograph. It was a recent surveillance image. Taken only three months ago. The photograph showed a young woman stepping out of a black car. Her face was partially hidden. But visible enough.

Three figures entered. Human in appearance. Hospital uniforms. Doctor. Security officer. Orderly. The manner in which they moved dispelled any sense of normalcy. Perfectly synchronized.

The screen displayed a single classified document.

Scarlett clicked open the full file. The terminal whirred softly. A new document appeared. Transfer Notes Confidential Her eyes scanned the text. Subject Seven demonstrates exceptional early cognitive response and adaptive emotional resilience. The maternal guardian insists transfer is necessary for long-term protection. Protection.

Then 3111 and 3222 can help us!” 3333 looks at me and then up above. I can tell he is thinking something over and I can tell by his face- this isn’t going to be good for me.

“From the beginning.” Luca stepped closer. “Then it’s time to show them what happens when you plan for the wrong girl.” Across the city, in a white lab lit by halogen lights, a group of masked technicians stood before a tall glass chamber.
