章節 16: Mother by Chance
Chapter 15: The Mysterious Past
Alex's mind was reeling as she tried to process what had just happened. Marcus, the man who had been trying to kill them, was her brother?
She couldn't believe it. It didn't make any sense.
Ethan's eyes were locked on hers. "Are you okay?" he asked.
Alex shook her head. "I don't know," she said. "I don't understand what's going on."
Ethan pulled her into his arms. "We'll figure it out," he said. "Together."
As they stood there, trying to make sense of the chaos that had erupted around them, Alex's mind began to wander back to her past.
She had always known that her family was a little... unusual. Her parents had been scientists, and they had always been involved in some kind of secret research.
But Alex had never suspected that her family was involved in anything sinister.
As she thought back to her childhood, Alex began to remember strange occurrences that had seemed insignificant at the time.
There were the late-night meetings that her parents had held in their laboratory, the ones that they had always told her were "business meetings."
And then there were the strange men who had come to their house, the ones who had always seemed to be lurking in the shadows.
Alex's eyes widened as she realized the truth. Her family had been involved in something big, something that had put them in danger.
And now, it seemed, that danger had followed her into adulthood.
Ethan's eyes were locked on hers. "What are you thinking?" he asked.
Alex took a deep breath. "I think my family was involved in something sinister," she said. "Something that put us in danger."
Ethan's eyes narrowed. "What kind of danger?" he asked.
Alex shook her head. "I don't know," she said. "But I think it has something to do with my brother."
Ethan's eyes locked on hers. "We'll find out the truth," he said. "Together."
As they stood there, determined to uncover the secrets of Alex's past, they heard a noise behind them.
They turned to see a figure emerging from the shadows.
It was a woman, tall and imposing, with a stern expression on her face.
"Who are you?" Ethan asked, his eyes narrowing.
The woman smiled. "My name is Dr. Samantha Taylor," she said. "And I'm here to tell you the truth about Alex's family."
Alex's eyes widened as she realized the truth. This woman was somehow connected to her family's past.
And she was about to reveal a secret that would change everything.
Dr. Taylor took a deep breath. "Alex, your family was involved in a top-secret government project," she said.
Alex's eyes widened. "What kind of project?" she asked.
Dr. Taylor hesitated. "It's complicated," she said. "But basically, your parents were working on a way to create super-soldiers."
Alex's eyes widened. "Super-soldiers?" she repeated.
Dr. Taylor nodded. "Yes," she said. "They were using advanced genetic engineering techniques to create soldiers with enhanced strength, speed, and agility."
Ethan's eyes narrowed. "And what does this have to do with Alex?" he asked.
Dr. Taylor hesitated. "Alex, you're a product of that project," she said.
Alex's eyes widened. "What do you mean?" she asked.
Dr. Taylor took a deep breath. "You were genetically engineered to be a super-soldier," she said.
Alex's mind was reeling. She couldn't believe what she was hearing.
Ethan's eyes were locked on hers. "We'll get through this," he said. "Together."
But Alex couldn't shake the feeling that her whole life had been a lie.
