_Part 1: Double Cross_
Samantha's voice crackled over the comms device. "I've found Eclipse's core. But Jai's security is closing in."
Rory, Maya, and Alexander sprinted toward the server room.
"Almost there," Samantha said.
Suddenly, the doors slammed shut.
Jai's voice echoed through the intercom. "Welcome, Rory. You're just in time to witness Eclipse's glory."
_Part 2: Rachel's Revelation_
Rachel emerged from the shadows, a sly smile spreading across her face.
"Alexander, you've been playing both sides," Rachel said. "But Eclipse's true purpose... you don't know."
Alexander's eyes narrowed. "What do you mean?"
Rachel's eyes sparkled. "Eclipse isn't just control. It's erasure."
_Part 3: Erasure Protocol_
Rory's eyes widened in horror. "What does that mean?"
Rachel's voice dripped with malice. "Eclipse will wipe out dissenting minds. Rewrite loyalty. Ensure global obedience."
Maya's face paled. "That's genocide."
Alexander's expression turned grim. "I won't let that happen."
_Part 4: Sacrifice_
Samantha's voice whispered urgency. "Guys, I've got Eclipse's core online. But I need you to create a distraction."
Rory nodded. "We'll handle Jai."
As they charged forward, Alexander lagged behind.
"Alexander, come on!" Rory shouted.
Alexander's eyes locked onto Rachel. "I'll handle her."
_Part 5: Countdown Accelerated_
Eclipse's countdown accelerated.
30 minutes.
Jai's laughter echoed. "You're too late."
Rory and Maya fought through Jai's forces.
Alexander confronted Rachel.
"You used me," Alexander spat.
Rachel's smile twisted. "You were always meant to be sacrificed."
Alexander's eyes blazed.
He made a choice.
