Titan led the way down a dimly lit corridor. Lila’s fingers danced over the consoles, bypassing security locks. Ethan felt a chill run down his spine. Ironwatch Regional Command wasn’t a building. It was a trap.
Every step brought more signs of intrusion, sabotage, and deception. Security measures were rigged. Systems were manipulated. Shadows seemed to move. Ethan knew survival meant confronting what had infiltrated the command center—the dark secret hidden in plain sight.
The alarms blared, cameras remained dead, and Ethan understood with absolute clarity: his first day at Ironwatch Regional Command had just become a war he didn’t sign up for, and it was only going to get worse from here.
Titan growled. Lila whispered, “We’re not alone.”
Ethan’s hand tightened on the doorframe. He drew a slow breath. The building was alive with danger, and somewhere in the darkness, the true enemy waited.
