"Are you going to be coming back soon, Daddy?" Mandy asked, her voice trembling.

She had missed her dad so much, and she didn't understand why he had to be away for so long.

"Soon, kiddo, very soon. I'm almost done here, okay kiddo?" Reed said, trying to sound cheerful.

He hated lying to his daughter, but he couldn't tell her the truth. He couldn't risk putting her in danger.

"Okay, Daddy," Mandy said, nodding.

She trusted her dad, even if she didn't know what he was doing.

"Do you feel Ralph is dead?" Anna asked, her voice serious.

"I do think so, I think he went on to investigate the omega outstation where these spores and bio-engineered fungus are being transported, which is where I will be headed after I'm done here," Reed explained, his voice low.

The evidence he’d collected was damning, but it meant nothing if he didn’t escape.“Hey, we found two guards beaten and tied up outside,” one of the guards whispered to the others. Reed strained to hear their conversation from his hiding spot. The words sent a chill down his spine. “The intruder had been thorough—taking not only their uniforms but also their key cards” the guard continued. Reed clenched his jaw. “Everyone fan out, look for any possible intruder,” another guard ordered. Their footsteps echoed as they dispersed, their guns in their hands ready to shoot. Reed’s heart raced. He had to find an exit. The narrow hallway stretched ahead, doors lining both sides. He swiped the stolen key card against the first door’s electronic lock. Nothing.
