Nathaniel "Nate" Archer breathed in the crisp morning air on the porch of his wooden house, a simple dwelling situated on the outskirts of a small, tranquil town, far from the chaos and noise of the world he once knew. This morning was like every other morning of the past two years—quiet, peaceful, and filled with a simplicity that soothed his soul. After twenty years of living in the shadows, Nate had found solace in this routine, a life far removed from the death and mayhem that once defined him.He sipped his steaming black coffee while gazing at the trees whose leaves were beginning to yellow, a sign that autumn had arrived.

In the control room, the atmosphere was intense and nerve-wracking. The sounds of gunfire had ceased, replaced by the nervous breathing of Benjamin and Marcus. Under the table, Marcus Hale and Benjamin looked extremely distressed. Marcus, whose face once showed strength and opulence, now appeared pale and fearful. Benjamin, usually confident, looked anxious and sweating. When Nate and his team finally entered the room, the tension escalated. Nate’s heavy footsteps, accompanied by Emma, Rachel, Lena, Damian, and Aiden, echoed in the silent hallway. They had defeated the remaining enemies and reached this point—the last stronghold of their major threat. "Come out," Nate said in a low voice. "I know you're here, Marcus."

In the darkness of the gloomy room, Nate moved swiftly, taking advantage of the confusion. He lifted his bound body with great effort and swung himself towards the man holding a weapon. The movement caused the man to stagger and lose his balance, and the weapon he held fell to the floor.Nate then forced his hands free from the chains binding him. The pain from the chains rubbing against his skin made him scream loudly.
