Chapter 36 - Chapter 36 — Selene’s Deadly Challenge

Part-01-Selene becoming visible.

The air in the abandoned factory was thick with tension. Broken machinery cast jagged shadows across the walls, and the faint hum of distant motors sounded like a predator's growl. Feriha, Eric, and Ravihan moved cautiously, every step calculated. ⏳

Selene's voice echoed from the darkness, smooth and chilling:

"Welcome back, my little hunters. I've been waiting for you."

Feriha's pulse quickened. She tightened Eric's hand. "We're not afraid of you," she said, her voice trembling only slightly. 😐

Selene's laugh was soft and cruel. "Oh, Feriha… you should be. You're stepping into my world now, and in my world, control is everything." 😅

Part-02-A Sudden Assault

Without warning, automated traps sprung from the walls ; spikes shooting out, wires electrified, and glass panels shattering.

"Move!" Eric shouted, grabbing Feriha's hand and pulling her behind a pile of crates. Ravihan dove to the other side, covering their flank. 🛡

Bullets fired from hidden turrets, forcing them to dodge and weave through the chaos. Sparks flew from broken electrical panels, illuminating Selene's silhouette briefly ; poised, calculating, untouchable.

Feriha's heart pounded. "We have to keep moving! She's trying to separate us!"

Eric nodded, guiding her carefully. "Stay close. Trust me!" 🔫

Ravihan's eyes burned with both fear and frustration. "I won't let her touch you, Feriha. Not while I'm here!" ✊

Part-03-Teamwork Under Fire

Feriha ducked behind Eric as another trap activated. Sparks danced dangerously close. "We can't fight her head-on!" she shouted. "We need strategy!" 📝

Eric and Ravihan exchanged a quick glance, the tension between them still palpable, yet they silently agreed: survival came first. Together, they coordinated ; Eric distracting the automated guns, Ravihan disabling traps with precision, Feriha guiding them through the safest path.

A misstep sent a trap swinging dangerously close. Both Eric and Ravihan lunged at the same time, catching her instinctively. Feriha felt their hands brush hers, the closeness overwhelming, yet grounding. 🔗

Part-04-Selene's Warning

Selene's voice cut through the chaos, mocking:

"Ah, teamwork! How sweet. But even the strongest bonds can break under pressure. Can you survive what's coming next?" 😅

Feriha's teeth clenched. She realized Selene wasn't just testing their physical limits ;she was testing their emotions, their trust, even their hearts. 💞

And as she looked at Eric and Ravihan, she knew one thing with certainty:

They would face Selene together. No matter what.

But deep down, she couldn't shake the fear that Selene had planned this all along, and that the worst was yet to come. 🎬
