Dishonored To Dominance: Marcus Rise A CITY ON THE EGDE
Washington, D.C. - 7:45 AMThe sky over Washington, D.C., was a perfect mix of blue and gold, with the early morning sun casting long shadows across the city’s iconic landmarks. The streets were alive with the hum of traffic, people hurrying to work, and tourists gathering at the National Mall. On the surface, everything seemed normal. But underneath, there was tension—a city holding its breath, waiting for the storm to hit.Inside the sleek, glass-paneled building of the National Counterterrorism Center (NCTC), the atmosphere was anything but calm.“Everyone, listen up!” Director Richard Cole’s voice boomed through the operations room, cutting through the constant hum of computers. His sharp blue eyes scanned the room as agents quickly dropped their conversations and turned toward him. "We've intercepted another encrypted message. It confirms what we feared.""Another one?" Evelyn Hart, head of Cyber Operations, looked up from her screen, concern etched across her face. She was alrea
Dishonored To Dominance: Marcus Rise MARCUS REED FALL
6 Months Earlier – Fallujah, IraqThe desert sun beat down mercilessly on the convoy, heatwaves shimmering off the rocky terrain. Inside the armored vehicle, Marcus Reed adjusted his helmet, scanning the horizon with sharp, experienced eyes. The mission briefing had been straightforward: escort high-ranking officials to a nearby base for classified talks. But something about it felt wrong to him. There was an itch at the back of his mind, a feeling that had saved his life more times than he could count.“This doesn’t sit right,” Marcus muttered under his breath, gripping the handle of his rifle tightly.Daniel Cross, his second-in-command and closest friend, glanced at him from the driver’s seat. “You’ve got that look again.”Marcus frowned. “It’s too quiet. No local traffic, no shepherds... nothing. We should’ve seen movement by now.”Daniel shrugged, trying to brush off Marcus’s concern. “Maybe it’s just one of those days.”Marcus wasn’t convinced. “No such thing. This area is alway
Dishonored To Dominance: Marcus Rise EVELYN'S LOYALTY
The cold morning air swept through the quiet streets of Arlington, Virginia. Marcus Reed stood in the corner of a dimly lit diner, his face shadowed by the brim of a baseball cap. He sipped the black coffee in front of him, though he barely tasted it. His mind was racing, flooded with the images of the betrayal he’d uncovered with Daniel’s help. The weight of his dishonorable discharge was still fresh, but now there was something else—hope. If the intel Daniel uncovered was real, there was a chance to clear his name.A chance, but at what cost?He had been sitting there for an hour, waiting. The door to the diner opened with a soft jingle of the bell, and he glanced up. His heart gave a jolt when he saw her. Evelyn Torres walked in, her sharp brown eyes scanning the room before they settled on him. Dressed in a leather jacket, with dark hair falling around her face, she exuded confidence and determination. As their eyes met, Marcus felt the familiar pull. She had always been there, ev
Dishonored To Dominance: Marcus Rise THE SYSTEM AWAKEN
The sound of a distant car horn pierced the silence of Marcus Reed’s small apartment. He sat on the edge of his bed, his hands clutching his temples as the waves of pain subsided. It had been months since his accident, but the sharp, electric shocks that ran through his body were becoming more frequent. At first, he had dismissed them as aftereffects of the injury, but now, things were different. This wasn’t just pain—it was something else, something strange.The first time he noticed it was a week ago. He had been walking down the street, trying to clear his head, when he felt the same electric pulse in his chest. At that moment, time seemed to slow, and before he knew it, his hand had reached out—instinctively grabbing a coffee cup that a passerby had dropped several feet away. His reflexes had been impossibly fast, like he had known the cup was falling before it even happened.But that wasn’t the only thing.His mind had started calculating things he had never cared to think about.
Dishonored To Dominance: Marcus Rise THE THREAT EMERGES
Location: The White House Situation RoomThe lights were dim in the Situation Room. A dozen faces reflected the tension that had been building over the past few hours, eyes locked on the screens displaying a map of Washington, D.C., with blinking red dots spread across various locations. There were senior intelligence officers, military generals, security experts, and, at the head of the table, President Richard Hayes. His face was stoic, but his fingers drummed lightly on the polished oak table as the latest reports came in.Director Kate Moreland of the CIA cleared her throat, drawing the room’s attention. “Mr. President, we’ve intercepted another message. It’s encrypted but consistent with the patterns we’ve been tracking over the last few days.”President Hayes leaned forward, his deep voice resonating across the room. “What does it say?”Kate exchanged glances with the NSA Director, David Cole, before speaking. “We’re still working to decrypt it fully, but we believe it reference
Dishonored To Dominance: Marcus Rise THE FIRST CLUE
Location: Marcus’s Apartment – Washington, D.C.Marcus Reed sat at his cluttered desk, the soft glow of his laptop illuminating his rugged features. It had been weeks since the accident that had changed everything. After the military had dismissed him, he found himself struggling with a new reality, one that felt foreign and isolating. The shadows of his past haunted him, but tonight, there was something else—an urgency that drove him to delve into the world of encrypted communications.He tapped on the keyboard, his heart racing as the screen flickered with lines of code. The message had come through unexpectedly, a cryptic sequence that sent adrenaline coursing through his veins.“Come on, come on,” he muttered to himself, fingers flying across the keys as he worked to decrypt the message. Just as he thought he was getting somewhere, a notification popped up, breaking his concentration.“Marcus, what are you working on?” Evelyn’s voice came from behind him, and he turned to see her
Dishonored To Dominance: Marcus Rise REASSEMBLING THE TEAM
Location: Marcus’s Apartment – Washington, D.C.Marcus stared at the message on his phone, the weight of its implication heavy in the air. He took a deep breath, feeling the adrenaline kick in. “Evelyn, we can’t do this alone. We need our team.”Evelyn raised an eyebrow. “Are you sure they’ll want to help? After everything that’s happened?”“I don’t know, but they deserve to know,” Marcus replied, determination hardening his voice. “They were all wronged by the system, just like me. If we can convince them that there’s a real threat, they might be willing to join us.”“Alright, then let’s do it,” she said, her tone resolute. “Who do you have in mind?”“First, there’s Jake. He’s been working security since his discharge. He’s got the skills we need.”“Jake is a hothead. Are you sure he’ll follow your lead?” Evelyn asked, skepticism creeping into her voice.“Jake has a good heart. He just needs to know that this isn’t just about revenge—it’s about protecting people,” Marcus countered. “
Dishonored To Dominance: Marcus Rise FELICITY WATCH
location: Marcus's Apartment – Late NightThe atmosphere was tense as Marcus stood by the window, peering out at the quiet street below. The team had gathered in his apartment, going over plans, but there was one crucial piece missing. He turned away from the window, a determined look on his face.“We need Felicity,” Marcus declared, breaking the silence that hung over the room. Evelyn looked up from her notes. “You really think she’ll help us after everything?”“She’s the best tech expert we’ve got,” Marcus replied, recalling their past missions. “She’s a survivor. If anyone can give us the intel we need, it’s her.”“Alright, but we have to be careful. We don’t want to draw attention to ourselves,” Jake said, crossing his arms. “I’ll reach out to her,” Marcus said, picking up his phone. He dialed Felicity’s number, his heart racing as he waited for her to pick up.Location: Felicity's Bunker – Moments LaterFelicity’s bunker was a hidden marvel of technology, nestled beneath an una
