> Ava (eyebrow raised): “Are we bringing him?” Lucien answered for her. > Lucien: “I go where she goes.” > Sera: “Then stay ahead of me.” 6:45 a.m. – Hidden Surveillance Room A shadowed figure stood in front of nine angled monitors. Elise. Again. This time not broadcasting. Watching. On one screen Lucien and Sera kissing. On another Santiago’s node crumbling. On a third a file decrypting slowly: SANCTUARY_ANNOTATION_AQ1 She leaned in.

She squeezed it two more times before dropping it in the water close to her chest. Leaning back and relaxing, she let her hands drop on either side of the bath tub. Her left hand reached out for the bottle of wine which laid just below the tub and she lifted it up. Deciding not to bother refilling the now empty glass, she brought the bottle to her lips and tipped her head backward, gulping the red liquid down in a rush. She choked and coughed, placed the bottle down and chuckled sadly. "Omar, I'm really sorry." Hiccup. "I'm really really sorry. But I needed this break, at least I thought that was what I needed.... Bit I miss you terribly...."

A high-priority system alert screamed across the interface, overriding every security protocol. "Sophia! We have a catastrophic breach!" Zero’s voice broke over the comms, heavily distorted by a rising storm of static. "The 'Shadow' protocol... it didn't delete when we purged the Montgomery servers. It migrated. It found a more compatible, more desperate biological host."

The stillness before an unseen storm. “This place gives me the creeps,” Lucien muttered from the front, fingers twitching over his tablet. “Signal interference is unnatural. Even EMP scramblers don’t block this much.” “They’re jamming it from the inside,” Kira said. “Whatever’s in there, they don’t want anyone getting out.” Tariq checked his explosives pack. “Or maybe they’re keeping something in.” The crawler came to a halt at the edge of a rocky plateau, where a steel hatch lay buried in ice and stone—barely visible beneath decades of frost. The entrance to Site 6.

And in the furthest Council vault the old servers began to fry, spontaneously, violently. An operator yelled. Sector 4 is gone! Another was crying, Memory banks are killing themselves, data is rewriting! it is playing on her name!” It was the final screen flashing: Breach of PRIMARY SUBJECT. SUBJECT SEVEN: SYNC 46 %. ZERO PROTOCOL… MERGING.

“Since, I’ll be out of touch for a day, I need to explain to you what to do with the tracking software. I sent you a link with all the instructions. The password is F9NM61.” Scarlett watches as Ryder takes out his laptop. For a moment, he fumbles with it which makes her frown. Ryder is trying to find the power button on it but his vision starts to fog once again. He clears his throat and finally locates the power button and turns on the laptop. “F9NM61,” Ryder types. Scarlett freezes on her spot. An automated voice echoes out of the device. “The password you entered is incorrect,” the voice says. “Please enter again.”

We scrambled toward a reinforced steel door labeled DATA INFRASTRUCTURE: UNIT 04. Christian followed behind us his chest heaving as he held Leo tightly against his shoulder. His gaunt face was smeared with grease and blood from a small cut on his temple. Julian brought up the rear clutching his cracked data-pad against his chest. The screen still flickered with the cascading waterfall of the Benson-04 migration sequence. MIGRATION AT 98% COORDINATING NODE: ACTIVE Marcus slammed his shoulder against the iron security door. The heavy metal latch. Refused to budge. "It's a hydraulic lock, Sierra! I need an administrative override code or a high-voltage pulse to clear the solenoid!"

The terminal whirred loudly as it dug through centuries of forgotten data, and the blue glow from the screen cast eerie shadows against my pale skin. I watched the scan sift through the old wars, the ancient blood pacts, and the fragmented records of extinct bloodlines that hadn't walked the earth in a millennia. If she wasn't a standard supernatural, then she had to be a descendant of something much older and far more dangerous. Ten agonizing minutes passed in tense silence, and I was just about to run a manual override when the screen suddenly froze. The harsh red error message vanished, and a single string of glowing gold text appeared in the dead center of the monitor.
