RECAPE-

Zayel and his friends dive deeper into the Code X network to uncover its secrets. They navigate dark tunnels beneath the city, tracking mysterious signals tied to Project Omega. Along the way, they face security drones and alarms but manage to avoid capture.

Inside a hidden control room, they encounter a mysterious woman with sharp eyes who seems to know more than she lets on. Her sudden attack forces the team to retreat, leaving them with more questions than answers.

The episode ends with the team realizing they are being watched and that the battle against Omega is growing more dangerous.

EP-10 BEGGINING-

The city was quiet under the night sky, but beneath its surface, a different world buzzed with invisible signals. Zayel, Lira, Dex, and Kai moved carefully through the dark tunnels hidden under the city streets. Each step brought them closer to the heart of Project Omega — the secret controlling their world.

Dex held his scanner tightly, watching the numbers change rapidly. “The signals are getting stronger,” he said quietly. “We’re near the main control center.”

Lira’s eyes flicked nervously from shadow to shadow. “I don’t like this place. It feels like something is watching us — maybe more than just security.”

Kai gripped his gear tighter and nodded. “We have to stay sharp. We don’t know what’s waiting for us.”

Zayel took a deep breath, steadying himself. “No matter what, we have to finish this. The longer Omega runs, the more people it controls.”

They followed glowing lines of light running along the tunnel walls — the secret cables carrying Omega’s signals. Suddenly, the silence shattered.

“Security breach detected,” a robotic voice echoed through the tunnels.

From the shadows, several drones appeared, their red lights glowing ominously. The buzzing sound grew louder as they locked onto the team.

“EMP grenade, now!” Lira shouted, throwing the small device toward the drones.

A wave of electromagnetic energy pulsed through the air, and the drones stopped moving, frozen for a few seconds.

“We don’t have much time,” Dex warned. He rushed to a nearby control panel and began hacking furiously.

Zayel and Kai stood back-to-back, ready to defend the team from any attackers.

“Almost there,” Dex muttered, sweat dripping down his forehead. “Just a few more seconds.”

Suddenly, a dark figure stepped out from the shadows — a woman with piercing eyes and a cold smile. She moved with confidence, like she belonged.

“Who are you?” Zayel asked firmly.

She laughed softly. “A friend, or perhaps your enemy. The line is thin.”

Before anyone could respond, she raised her hand, releasing a strange energy wave. Kai staggered, struggling to keep his balance.

“Get out, now!” Lira yelled, grabbing Zayel’s arm.

Dex disconnected his device quickly. “We have to go, now!”

The mysterious woman vanished back into the darkness as the alarms blared louder.

Outside the tunnels, the team gasped for breath.

“That was too close,” Lira said, wiping her forehead.

Zayel looked toward the city lights above. “Omega’s control is spreading faster than we thought. We can’t waste any time.”

Dex frowned. “Someone’s watching us. They know where we are.”

Kai nodded grimly. “We have to be careful. Trust no one.”

As they disappeared into the night, far away, the woman’s eyes glowed faintly.

She whispered, “They think they’re ready. We’ll see how far they can go.”
