Over the following weeks, Sam meticulously played the part Logan had entrusted to him. He became a shadow within the agency, slipping seamlessly into his role as a loyal agent while secretly acting as Logan’s eyes and ears. The plan required discipline and absolute stealth; even a single slip could expose him and Logan to severe consequences. It didn’t take long for Sam’s loyalty to be tested. The panel members, particularly Agent Gunna, seemed to be probing Sam’s allegiance at every opportunity. During one meeting, Gunna glanced in Sam’s direction and spoke with a sly smile. “Sam,” Gunna began, tapping his fingers on the table. “Given your past work with Logan, I’m sure you’ve heard things. Seen things. Tell me, what do you really think about his demotion?” Sam forced a neutral expression, resisting the urge to reveal his true feelings. “I think… Logan was a great agent, one of the best. But maybe he got too focused on things outside of protocol. That kind of focus can be
As Sam carefully monitored the movements of the panel members, he knew the stakes were higher than ever.Logan was counting on him to uncover any clues that could expose the agents' conspiracy. Every day was a game of balancing his cover while gathering intel, and each move required precision.But no matter how cautious he was, Sam couldn’t shake the sense that eyes were watching him from the shadows.One night, he was accessing an encrypted file from the agency’s restricted database when he felt a faint prickle down his spine. It was an instinct honed from years in the field, a sense that something was terribly wrong. He tried to stay calm, quietly closing out of the file and preparing his excuses. But before he could exit, the door clicked open, and three agents stepped in. At their head was Agent Tyga, his lips curled into a triumphant smirk.“Well, well, what do we have here?” Tyga said mockingly, crossing his arms. “Did you really think you could spy on us and get away with it?
Yuki appeared in Logan’s office, his usual calm demeanor marred with worry. “Logan, it’s Sam. I’m getting signals that he’s been… compromised. From what I can tell, he was captured by the panel, and they’ve likely taken him to one of the underground holding cells. They’re trying to silence him.”Logan’s face hardened as he processed the news. He knew sending Sam undercover was a risk, but he hadn’t anticipated the panel would act so swiftly or ruthlessly.Sam was more than just an ally,he was a trusted friend and the only one who knew the depth of the conspiracy. If the panel intended to hold Sam, they likely had no intention of releasing him anytime soon, if ever. Logan felt a surge of urgency. They needed a plan and fast.“Yuki, thank you for telling me,” Logan replied, voice firm with resolve. “Get the legal team ready. We’re taking this to them head-on.”Within hours, Logan’s legal team assembled, armed with a meticulously prepared lawsuit. Logan was prepared to confront the agenc
A few days before Logan could file the lawsuit, the panel met in secret to discuss a more direct solution to the “Logan problem.” They knew he was inching closer to uncovering their schemes, and waiting for him to go through legal channels posed too much risk. Instead, they devised a brutal plan to eliminate him once and for all, ensuring that he wouldn’t live long enough to present his findings to anyone.Late one night, they executed their plan. A series of explosions echoed across the city as Logan’s base went up in flames, the result of expertly planted charges designed to leave nothing behind. The blast shook the ground, illuminating the night sky, and within minutes, the entire complex was engulfed in fire, smoke billowing high into the air. The agency scrambled to contain the blaze, every trace of evidence and every piece of technology Logan had gathered was reduced to ashes.As the flames consumed his headquarters, the panel members gathered for a private dinner at an exclus
Logan’s silhouette appeared in the doorway, casting a long shadow over the dining room where the panel members had gathered, laughing and celebrating their supposed victory over him. His face was smeared with soot, his clothes singed and tattered, and his eyes burned with a fury that sent a chill through the room. He had narrowly escaped the flames, defying their carefully orchestrated plot, and now he was standing there, very much alive.The laughter around the table died instantly. Agent Wayne's glass halted mid-air, his confident grin fading into a look of disbelief. Agent Gunna’s face was drained of color, and Agent Young, usually quick to have something smug to say, could only stare, mouth slightly agape. Agent Wayne was the first to recover, his expression shifting to one of anger. “Logan,” he muttered, “you don’t know when to quit.”Logan took a step forward, his jaw clenched and his eyes hard. “I think it’s you who doesn’t know when to quit, Wayne. I’ve given you more than e
Hours before the fireLogan stood alone in the empty, dimly lit halls of his base, feeling a chill settle into the air. He’d sensed the shift in the panel members’ tactics, the way they’d grown more desperate and reckless. If they were bold enough to move against him in broad daylight, then he knew they wouldn’t stop at simple warnings. They’d try to eliminate him again.Without a second thought, Logan pulled out his phone and called Yuki. It rang only once before Yuki picked up. “Boss? What’s going on?”Logan’s voice was calm but resolute. “Yuki, listen carefully. I want you to take everyone, tech team, analysts, everyone at the base and head straight to the safe house. No stops, no detours. I want all of you out of here within the hour.”There was a pause on the line as Yuki processed Logan's words. “Is… something about to go down?”“Don’t ask questions,” Logan replied, his tone carrying a weight that left no room for debate. “Trust me on this. I’ll meet you all there soon. Just ma
In the grand, imposing courtroom, Logan Frost stepped forward, flanked by his legal team. The room was packed, buzzing with murmurs and whispers as he entered with confidence and purpose. This was the day Logan had long awaited,the trial where the full truth would come to light. The panel members, Agents Wayne, Gunna, Young, Future, and Tyga, sat at the defense table, eyes narrow with a mixture of apprehension and resentment. They had underestimated him, and today, they would see just how costly that mistake had been.Logan’s lawyer, a sharp-eyed woman named Sarah Lin, began her opening statement with poise and precision. “Your Honor, my client, Mr. Logan Frost, is a decorated agent with an impeccable record someone who has dedicated his life to service. Yet, because of personal vendettas and the unchecked abuse of power by those within his own agency, he stands here today, not as an accused but as a victim. Today, we will reveal the extensive evidence that exposes the defendants’ co
As Logan stepped out of the courthouse, still reeling from the recent victory over the corrupt panel members, Sam approached with a look that seemed out of place for the moment. Sam’s usual calm demeanor was absent; instead, he seemed hesitant, even slightly anxious. “Logan,” Sam began, voice low, glancing quickly at Mia as if uncertain whether to continue in front of her. Logan’s brow furrowed. “What’s up, Sam?”Taking a breath, Sam looked him directly in the eyes. “Your parents… they’re back home. They arrived without any notice.”Logan froze, his initial sense of triumph from the courtroom victory fading as Sam’s words sank in. His parents, he hadn’t seen them since they’d gone overseas on their latest venture. They hadn’t even called to give him a heads-up, yet here they were, likely waiting for an explanation about why he hadn’t kept in touch more often.Logan stole a quick glance at Mia, who was still basking in the aftermath of their courtroom success, her smile soft but lin
