The final corridor was a gauntlet of fire. Automated turrets blazed, and Council soldiers regrouped for a desperate defense.
Titan ducked behind a bulkhead as plasma bolts scorched the walls. Kaela covered his flank, expertly picking off foes with precision shots.
Ahead, the graviton disruptor chamber loomed, its core radiating an eerie blue light.
Suddenly, the chamber doors slammed shut. A voice crackled through the intercom: "You're too late, Titan. The Council's plan is already in motion."
From the shadows emerged the Council's enforcer — a towering figure in advanced armor, enhanced with Helix technology. His eyes glowed with unnatural power.
"You cannot stop evolution," the enforcer growled. "The Helix will reshape the galaxy—with or without you."
Titan gritted his teeth. "We'll see about that."
Blades clashed, plasma fired, and the fate of the galaxy hung in the balance.
