Ryker's words sent shockwaves.
"Biological warfare...population control."
Zade's face twisted.
"Our family's responsible?"
Ryker nodded.
"I'm sorry, Zade. I didn't know."
Axel's eyes narrowed.
"How deep does it go?"
Ryker hesitated.
"Global. Governments, corporations...all complicit."
I felt a chill.
"How many know?"
Ryker's voice dropped.
"Only a few. The Inner Circle."
Victor struggled against Axel.
"Silence, Ryker!"
Zade's anger flared.
"Inner Circle? Who?"
Ryker swallowed hard.
"Father...and others. Powerful people."
Axel's grip tightened.
"Names, Ryker."
Ryker's eyes darted.
"Senator Jenkins...CEO of OmniCorp...others."
Zade's face paled.
"How do we stop it?"
Ryker's voice trembled.
"I have documents...evidence."
Axel's eyes locked onto Ryker.
"Where?"
Ryker hesitated.
"In a safe house...hidden location."
I nodded.
"Get the documents. We'll expose them."
Zade's determination burned.
"We'll bring them down."
Suddenly, Victor's eyes gleamed.
"You'll never leave this place alive."
Alarms blared.
Guards stormed in.
"Take them!" Victor yelled.
We fought back.
Zade took down two guards.
Axel disabled another.
I disarmed a third.
Ryker grabbed Victor.
"You're finished, Father."
Victor's smile twisted.
"Not yet...my son."
