Sector 17 Docks — Midnight
Rain crashed against the concrete.
Thunder shook the sky.
But nobody heard it anymore.
Because Rajesh Roy lay bleeding in front of them.
💥 Chaos Explodes
"DAD!"
Sumit ran forward instantly.
Arjun right behind him.
Rajesh collapsed completely as they caught him.
Blood everywhere.
Breathing weak.
Sangita covered her mouth—
"Oh God…"
Rahul whispered—
"This just became personal-personal…"
No jokes after that.
Because this wasn't fear anymore.
This was rage.
😈 Lucien Watches Calmly
Across the dock—
Lucien Vale stood perfectly still.
Rain falling over his suit.
Expression unchanged.
👉 "Consider this mercy."
Sumit looked up slowly.
Eyes darker than before.
"You call this mercy?"
Lucien tilted his head slightly.
👉 "If we wanted him dead…"
A pause.
Cold.
👉 "You would already be mourning."
Silence.
Terrifying silence.
Because everyone knew—
he wasn't bluffing.
💔 Rajesh's Warning
Rajesh grabbed Sumit's wrist weakly.
"…listen…"
Blood on his lips.
Voice breaking.
"They found… the archive…"
Veer's eyes widened instantly.
"Project Eclipse…"
Rajesh nodded painfully.
👉 "They can't access the final key…"
A cough.
Blood again.
👉 "Don't let them reach the Vault."
Silence.
Arjun frowned.
"What vault?"
But Rajesh looked terrified for the first time.
👉 "If the Syndicate gets what's inside…"
A pause.
👉 "…countries will fall."
That line changed the air completely.
😨 The Real Threat
Lucien smiled faintly.
"You see?"
He looked at Sumit calmly.
👉 "Even now… your father hides things from you."
That truth hit hard.
Again.
Because every answer from Rajesh created ten more questions.
💥 Fight Ignites
Arjun stood up slowly.
Pure fury in his eyes.
"You touched our family."
Lucien sighed softly.
👉 "Emotion again."
Then—
without warning—
he moved.
Fast.
Unnaturally fast.
Direct attack.
Arjun blocked—
barely.
Impact alone pushed him backward.
Rahul whispered—
"WHY ARE ALL THEIR LEADERS SUPERHUMAN?!"
Aryan—
"We are seriously underpowered."
⚔️ Battle in the Rain
Gunfire erupted around the docks.
Syndicate operatives attacked from every direction.
Riya took cover while firing back—
"We need extraction NOW!"
Veer stayed beside his sister's tracker signal—
trying desperately to trace it.
Meanwhile—
Sumit and Arjun fought Lucien together.
But unlike Vikram—
Lucien never overcommitted.
Never lost composure.
Never wasted movement.
He fought like a machine wearing human skin.
💔 Emotional Core — Sangita's Fear
Sangita pressed against the car beside Rajesh.
Trying to stop the bleeding.
Hands shaking.
"Stay awake…"
Rajesh looked at her weakly.
"You love him…"
She froze slightly.
Then nodded softly.
"Yes."
A faint smile appeared on Rajesh's face.
👉 "Good…"
A pause.
Painful.
👉 "He needs someone… who reminds him he's human."
That line hit her deeply.
Because she had already seen it—
the darkness growing inside Sumit.
😈 Lucien's Psychological Strike
Mid-fight—
Lucien suddenly spoke calmly.
👉 "Do you know why the Syndicate fears your father?"
Sumit attacked harder.
Silent.
Lucien blocked easily.
👉 "Because he built something even we couldn't fully control."
A pause.
👉 "And he left it to you."
That shook Sumit for half a second.
And Lucien noticed immediately.
Because predators notice hesitation.
💥 Veer Finds the Truth
Suddenly—
Veer hacked into the dock network.
A hidden transmission appeared.
Live coordinates.
And a message.
"THE VAULT OPENS IN 48 HOURS."
Below it—
one terrifying line:
"ASSET K-17 ACTIVATED."
Veer's blood ran cold.
Because that meant—
the Syndicate spy inside Roy Global
had finally started moving.
😨 Final Shock
Then—
Riya's communicator crackled violently.
Unknown voice.
Distorted.
👉 "Look behind you."
Everyone turned instantly.
And froze.
Because standing at the top of the shipping containers—
holding a sniper rifle—
was someone they trusted.
DEVIKA
Rain falling around her.
Expression unreadable.
Weapon aimed directly at Sumit.
🔥 FINAL LINE
Blood covered the battlefield.
Trust shattered again.
And just when they thought they knew the enemy—
someone from their own side
pulled the trigger. 🩸🔥😈
