Chapter 69: Confrontation and Connection

Zed and Jadyn's eyes widened in surprise as they caught sight of Gib's dramatic entrance from the AR [Augmented Reality] video feed. The air seemed to thicken with tension, and Zed's fist clenched involuntarily, his knuckles turning white. It appeared Gib hadn't taken the hint from Zed's earlier subtle callout during the live feed.

Zed turned to Jadyn, his voice low and controlled. "We should pay him a visit. See what he wants."

Jadyn nodded, her professional demeanor masking any apprehension she might have felt. They made their way to the terminal transport [a futuristic teleportation device], its door adorned with a shimmering, almost hypnotic tattoo. As they stepped inside, the world around them seemed to blur and shift, and in an instant, they vanished as if they had never been there at all.
