CHAPTER 10 - THE CHOICE

8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNNBYiWekeJ

Location: Data Spire - Collapsing

8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ24ZDlj9uub

Alarms blared. The building shook as defensive systems were targeted from above. Dust rained down; lights shattered.

8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWYf5miGtOo

WRAITH:

"Doorway blocked! We go through the maintenance shaft - now!"

8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMZF00TFeQn

They sprinted down collapsing corridors, debris crashing behind them. Lyra glanced back - the console, the message, the proof - was being consumed by fire.

8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlfKRDCPaLe

LYRA:

"The beacon - they're destroying it!"

8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrcJfiRrDTb

WRAITH:

"We can't save it. We save ourselves!"

8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1eRxDx9cYc

They burst onto an external maintenance platform - high above the district, wind howling. The strike craft banked away, leaving the spire burning.

SANXXX:

[over comms - static-filled]

"...clear zone... extraction... not safe to return..."

RAVEN:

[over comms]

"Lyra, listen - you were set up. Kade signed the order. Voss authorized it."

8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfzzvfnskCc

LYRA:

"They tried to kill us."

8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ0ULJq4VYy

WRAITH:

"They tried to kill you. I was just collateral."

8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcQNcPa6znV

Silence stretched between them - smoke rising, distant sirens wailing.

MIKA:

[over comms - quiet, urgent]

「本部には戻らないでください。彼らは証拠を消すつもりです。あなたがいること自体が彼らにとって脅威なのです。」

"Do not return to headquarters. They intend to erase the evidence. Your very existence has become a threat to them."

8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFKl4O9GY36

LYRA:

"Where do I go?"

8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYEiDbBjXOE

MIKA:

[over comms]

「J.R.が残した道があります。一番最初の拠点です。誰も知らない場所です。」

"There is a path J.R. left behind. His first base. A place no one else knows."

8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVMfxZNPN7K

WRAITH:

"I'm coming with you."

8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAgIr4RRe0m

Lyra looked at the burning spire - then at the city stretching out dark and vast.

8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBkXUa9kZNC

LYRA:

"They told me I serve the mission. But the mission was never what they said."

8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTbq2KzX0pV

She touched the rabbit symbol etched into the device Mika had given her - faint, barely visible.

8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu1zlUFibHr

LYRA:

"The mission is to find the truth."
