HELENA GRABBED ONTO DEBORAH. Refusing to let her sister go, they both tumbled down, and fell towards the bridge nearing a deep cliff. The rest of the three managed to scramble out of the cart before the mine cart itself fell into the abyss.

"No more tears," Helena grabbed onto her sister's hand tightly, as Deborah was close to falling down that same abyss. The ground wasn't even visible. No one would survive that fall. "Not until I avenge your death. Please...forgive me..."

Deborah cried out as she could nothing, falling.

She screamed, as if knowing her death, and disappeared into the darkness. Deborah flailed helplessly, her pained yelling still being heard until she hit the ground.

Helena explained fully what happened.

She had no choice to follow along a man's orders. His name was Simmons, torturing and experimenting on both sisters. Helena did anything to help her sister get out, but this in return breached the president's safety.

Simmons... it was a name that Seraphina kept in mind. But it didn't answer her questions, exactly. Who did it? Who unleashed that hell upon Team Alpha?

She almost got down on her knees and wanted to beg Ada for questions.

Chris said it was her. Definitely her. He can't be wrong.

Right?

"That sounds like Simmons, alright," Ada said out of the blue. Her phone rang. "We're up against the people who really run this country...in a very dangerous game and if you don't play your hand right..."

All of a sudden, Ada brought out her grappling hook and whisked herself away.

Making a flashy exit, like always.

Leon's phone rang this time. "Is Simmons there?"

"Yes, he—"

"Hunnigan, you need to be careful, I think he's the one who did it..."

"Did I hear my name?" A smug voice interrupted Leon. From the screen, Simmons didn't seem to have spotted Seraphina, only the two agents up front. "The president spoke highly of you, Agent Kennedy."

"Likewise. He told me you'd been friends for thirty years."

"Tell me is it true that you were the only ones present at the time of his death?"

What? I never heard he was dead...

"What are you saying?" Leon grimaced.

"Well, you must be aware that you are suspects of the attack? Agent Harper, at the time of the attack, you had abandoned your post," Simmons started to explain. "Leaving the president vulnerable. You must admit such behavior is suspicious."
