The Unshackled Queen: Never Say Never

The men remained unconvinced.

After a brief, silent consensus, the leader spoke again, his decision resolute.noveldrama

Eliminate them! Their points will be ours! Hannahs frown deepened as the inevitability of a confrontation loomed.

Without wasting another moment, she shouted, Attack! She and Bryson launched into a coordinated assault on the masked men.

Chaos erupted around them, leaving the onlookers stunned and abuzz with conversation.

Isnt this supposed to be a fight with the beasts? Why are so many people involved today? a thin man exclaimed with excitement.

Now this is thrilling! roared a burly spectator.

In the shadows of the arena, a fierce battle was erupting.

Hannah and Bryson moved in perfect synchrony, their strikes precise and devastating.

Their swift maneuvers left the masked men floundering in defense.

The leader, stumbling backward, asked in a mix of bewilderment and shock, Who the hell are you? Hannah sneered.

That doesnt matter. What matters is you picked the wrong opponents.

As she finished her declaration, Bryson executed a flawless spinning kick, sending the last masked man crashing to the ground.

He picked up the fallen electric baton and glanced coldly at the leader.

Ill be taking this.

Lets go, Hannah said, heading towards the light outside the door without Lingering.

The man made a move to follow, but Bryson pointed the electric baton at him.

Hannah made it clear earlier.

If you have other intentions, stay here.

Bryson turned to leave.

The man wanted to follow again, but he was intimidated by Brysons threatening glare.

If you dare follow us, youre dead! Bryson said.

Outside the door lay another winding passage, leading to an unknown destination.

The countdown on the large screen urged them to quicken their pace.

He pressed the answer button, and a familiar yet unexpected voice came through.

Bryson, its Remington.

I know youre with Hannah now.

We need to talk.

Hannah glanced at Bryson, who nodded slightly, acknowledging the necessity of the conversation.

He pressed the speaker button.

What do you want to say? Brysons tone was calm yet icy.

I think we both understand that the situation here has spiraled out of our control, Remington began.

Petersons scheme isnt just against us but the entire arena and the Twilight Dimness behind it.

I have some intel that might be useful to you.

Go on, Hannah said, her tone cool and detached.

Remington took a deep breath, gathering his thoughts before revealing, Peterson isnt the only one with ambitions. The Fox and the Rabbit, their true objective is to use this turmoil to oust Peterson and seize control of the entire organization! Moreover, the arena serves as their proving ground for new bio-weapons and a means to purge dissenters.

Were trapped here, and thats precisely their intention! Bio-weapons? Hannah queried, her brow knitting together in concentration.

I just encountered a mutated beast, one of their experiments! Miss Moore, we need to collaborate! Remington urged.

On the other end of the communicator, Hannah scoffed.

Mr.

Lyons, now you seek cooperation? You should remember, when you cast me out, I spared your life.

That was my act of kindness.

And now, you wish to ally with me? Her voice was icy yet melodious, betraying a hint of scorn.

Do you think Im an idiot? Remington, seemingly prepared for Hannahs skepticism, softened his voice to a whisper.

Miss Moore, the situation is dire.

I have no other options.

For the moment, we both share the same goal-to escape with our lives intact.

You need my assistance as well, dont you?
