At thirteen, Elektra Natchios witnessed the brutal murder of her parents at the hands of a notorious crime lord only known as the "Kingpin" by cops. Fifteen years later, with a burning desire for vengeance, she carries her mother's sacred Twin Sai a...

Midnight approached as Elektra made her way to the Central Park Zoo. The zoo, usually serene in the moonlight, now seemed like a battleground. As she entered, the darkness played tricks on her senses which were on high alert. Shadows danced around, and every rustle of leaves felt like an impending threat. She knew she was being watched. Swiftly, she scaled a fence and slipped through a back entrance, her agile movements allowing her to go undetected.
Entering a dimly lit room with a glass showing another room, Elektra felt a sudden coldness in the air. Before she could react, the door slammed behind her, trapping her inside. Panic surged through her veins, but she refused to let fear take hold. Elektra was no stranger to life-or-death situations and she relied on her training to keep her focus.
Before long, Kraven emerged from the other room opposite Elektra's. Dressed in his iconic attire, a menacing smile on his face, and a hunter's sniper, he exuded an air of confidence.
"Welcome, Elektra. I am Kraven, the world's greatest hunter," Kraven's voice echoed through the stillness. "Now that you are within my trap, we can begin our glorious contest of strength."
"Why don't you let Victor go and let's see how tough you really are," Elektra demanded, her voice trembling with barely contained rage.
The hunter laughed, his arrogance apparent.
"Ah, my son. He's safe... for now," Kraven taunted, his voice dripping with sadistic pleasure. "Let us hope your body moves faster than your tongue, Natchios."
A change swept through the room, making Kraven venture to another room opposite the one Elektra was in. Green gas hissed from hidden vents, filling the confined space with deadly fumes. Her senses sharpened as she realised the gravity of the situation. She had to escape, and quickly.
With sheer willpower, Elektra managed to exit the room through the door ahead of her, gasping for breath as she stumbled into the next section of the zoo's exhibits. The poison had taken its toll, weakened her body and clouded her mind. Every move became a battle, but she refused to give in.
"You are, perhaps, beginning to feel a bit disorientated," Kraven's voice spoke through the intercoms of the exhibits. "The poison coursing through your veins will surely kill you without the antitoxin."
Gritting her teeth, Elektra pressed on, her movements growing more laboured with each passing moment as she fought through the dizziness and disorientation caused by the toxic gas. It was through a maze of enclosures and pathways filled with bear traps, spikes and fires, each step becoming more challenging as the poison invaded her system. Elektra refused to Kraven win, let alone the lethal toxin coursing through her veins.
Whatever Kraven gassed me with, it's starting to throw me off, she thought. If I don't find Victor and get the antidote from Kraven soon, I'll be joining my parents.
