The chapter explodes into action with the intense firefight inside the OmniCorp facility. Silva and her team, facing overwhelming odds, fight with desperate precision. They're not just fighting for data; they're fighting against time.
> (Scene Transition: In the command center, JX, Clynston, and Janice are a whirlwind of activity. Clynston's fingers dance across the keyboard, trying to breach security protocols faster than ever. Janice is coordinating with law enforcement, their arrival crucial but delayed.)
> "They're locking down sectors," Clynston shouts, his voice strained. "We're losing access!"
> (Scene Transition: Silva's team breaches the server room, but Dr. Finch is waiting. He's not panicked; he's almost… resigned.)
> "You're too late," Finch says, his voice eerily calm. "Nightfall was a distraction. The real damage has already been done."
> (Scene Transition: Janice and the police storm the facility. They move with brutal efficiency, securing the perimeter and arresting personnel. Finch is apprehended, but he's defiant.)
> "The virus…" Finch begins, his eyes gleaming with a disturbing intensity. "It's mutating. It's out of control. Nightfall was meant to buy time, to contain it. But it's too late."
> (Scene Transition: In the US, Valerie and Jane are watching the news, their faces pale. Reports of the Singapore operation are overshadowed by warnings of escalating infection rates and potential lockdowns. The urgency is palpable.)
> "We're leaving now," Valerie says, her voice tight. "We can't wait any longer."
> (Scene Transition: Ryan and Charmaine, their eyes wide with horror, display the decrypted data. "Nightfall" wasn't just about finances. It was about creating widespread chaos, a perfect environment for a rapidly mutating virus.)
> "He was right," Ryan says, his voice shaking. "It's not just economic collapse. It's a biological catastrophe."
> (Scene Transition: Back in Singapore, JX confronts Finch, his voice filled with a mixture of anger and dread.)
> "What have you done?" JX demands. "What's happening to the virus?"
> Finch smiles, a chilling, almost pitying smile. "It's evolving, JX. Adapting. Beyond anything we could have predicted. Nightfall was a symptom, not the disease."
> (Scene Transition: JX addresses the team, his voice grave. "We stopped Nightfall, but Finch claims the virus is out of control. The US team is en route. We need to prepare for the worst.")
> (Scene Transition: The episode ends with Valerie, Jane, Charmaine, and Ryan boarding a high-speed transport, their faces etched with fear and determination. They're racing against a ticking clock, not just to reach Singapore, but to face a threat that could change everything.)
