London’s constant grey haze provided much needed camouflage for you.

You gently set the Albion guard down on the ground after knocking him out, quietly heading down the hall, crouched down low. Ever since you escaped Project OMNI and the Carcani Medical Lab with Mina, you had been working alongside her with DedSec.

Your mission? Infiltrate the Albion centre of technology, Nexus Tower, and hack into their mainframe. You were quick on your feet, quiet, and a good hacker, so it’s no shock that Bagley picked you.

You head up a set of stairs, trying to find your way to the server room, when someone grabs the collar of your shirt from behind, a hand slapping over your mouth. You struggle, your hands starting to glow with power, when you look over your shoulder to see your attacker.

Aiden Pearce.

Of fucking course.

You immediately relax, rolling your eyes. You should’ve expected him to follow you. He didn’t believe in you at all, thinking you were simply a kid in way over their head.
