Chapter 1: The betrayal

Chapter 1: The Betrayal

Lieutenant Colonel James Mitchell surveyed the dimly lit room, his eyes scanning the faces of the elite military unit under his command. The mission had been compromised, and the tension hung in the air like a thick fog.

"Everyone, split into your corresponding groups and search for their leader," he barked, his voice cutting through the silence. The room erupted into a flurry of activity as soldiers donned their gear and headed in different directions.

"Yes, sir!" chorused the other military men, snapping to attention before dispersing into the shadows.

On the other side of the city, Agent 7 paced the room with a frown etched across his face. Eve, his trusted ally, could feel the anger radiating from him.

"Damn, who dared betray us?" Agent 7 growled, clenching his fists.

Eve, a seasoned operative with a calm demeanor, approached him. "Don't waste your time thinking about that yet. We have to escape," she urged, but before she could finish her sentence, a deafening explosion rocked the building, cutting through the night like thunder.

{Boom}

Dust and debris filled the air as the shockwave rattled the structure. Agent 7 and Eve instinctively ducked for cover. The chaos outside had escalated, sirens wailing in the distance.

MOMENTS LATER...

In the midst of the pandemonium, a reporter stood in City A, microphone in hand, reporting live.

"Right now, we are in City A, and the famed Rising Mafa house has been arrested," the reporter announced, the chaos of the unfolding events evident in the background.

The city, once peaceful, now buzzed with the aftermath of the explosion. Emergency services rushed to the scene, and the military presence intensified. The Rising Mafia, a notorious criminal organization, had been the target of a covert operation gone awry.

Three days later, Eve awoke in bewilderment, grappling with memories of an explosion and a wave of pain that lingered in her thoughts. A sense of uncertainty enveloped her as she questioned her existence.

Eve: Where am I? Am I dead?

A radiant light emerged, accompanied by a splash, revealing an ethereal being.

Eve: Hey, who are you?

Angel: I am not a mere 'you.' I am the greatest being; humans call me Angel.

Eve, intrigued, questioned further.

Eve: Okay. Do you have answers for me?

Angel: You humans always have questions. You're here because you are dead. There was a hiccup in destiny – a premature demise caused by our youngest recruit. You've been granted a second chance.

Eve: A second chance? What does that entail?

Angel: You'll understand in due time. Now, off you go. Goodbye.

Eve, abruptly, was pulled down by a whirlpool force, finding herself in a different realm.

Eve: Now, where am I? (sigh)

In another dimension, a scene unfolded, blending the mystical with the earthly.

Doctor: Push harder.

Mrs. Dones: Uuuuh!! (screamed)

As the doctor worked diligently, a momentous revelation followed.

Doctor: I can now see the baby. Congratulations, it's a beautiful baby girl.
