John agreed. "We'll free them and destroy the source."

They approached the villagers cautiously, signaling for silence. "We're here to help," John whispered. "Stay calm and follow our lead."

"You think you can stop us?" it snarled. "You're too late."

John and Natasha exchanged a determined glance. "Not if we can help it," John replied, readying his weapon.
