The Company

After a lengthy journey to Argentina, Mathis finally emerged from the chaos of the airport. The vibrant energy of Buenos Aires pulsed around him, but he couldn't shake the heaviness in his chest—a constant reminder of the mission's stakes. Bree, ever efficient, had already secured a car and was navigating them toward the sprawling metropolis. As they drove, the wind howled outside, prompting Mathis to roll down the window. He closed his eyes, savoring the warm breeze that caressed his face—a fleeting moment of peace amid the storm brewing within him. The hum of cars passing on the streets was the only noise, wrapping him in a bubble of false serenity.

How did I end up here? he thought, letting the moment wash over him. For just a second, he wanted to forget about the Shadow Front, the betrayals, and the bloodshed. But the calm never lasted long, and the weight of what was to come pressed down on him again.
274Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgn1OGxG0Ry
274Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ65NE1XLJvn
Opening his eyes, he turned to Bree. "So, have you made arrangements for a hotel?"
274Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2A2lGq2bVr
274Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdDN6KblA9L
She looked at him, a soft smile playing on her lips. "I made a reservation at the luxurious Buenos Aires Marriott Hotel."
274Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcpa8oXzuyD
274Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQwwAdEUDjq
Mathis studied her, trying to read beyond her casual tone. Bree always seemed so unruffled, so in control, but there was something in her eyes—something that mirrored his own unease. "That sounds like it might be quite costly," he murmured, half-expecting her to reveal a hidden reason for choosing such a place.
274Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUlj3ow0NBJ
274Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPpa5Iv3z4I
She just smiled wider, her gaze steady. "I figured we could use a good bed."
274Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnRbTqp0XdM
274Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq1j1bD4S5X
As Bree cruised through the city, the warm glow of the streetlights illuminated their path, casting long shadows on the walls. The hotel was a grand, modern structure, its upscale aesthetic exuding an air of sophistication that felt almost out of place in their line of work. Once inside their room, Mathis gazed out the window at the sprawling cityscape, feeling a strange mix of isolation and purpose. He reached for his phone, the weight of the upcoming mission settling on his shoulders.
274Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzXzdB8PtUH
274Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3raZR0Msl6
"I've just checked in at the hotel. Any updates?" he inquired, his voice betraying a hint of impatience.
274Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXLD9pp4Yce
274Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG04deONGNV
"Hey, Mathis, we stumbled upon a company called Nexta-net. They plan to release new software next Monday, so it seems like the right company. Their office is out of town, but I'll provide you with the coordinates," his old friend informed him, the words crackling through the line.
274Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC5liCZ0kZe
274Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmHpR2e75An
Mathis paused, his mind racing. Nexta-net? It was just a name, but the implications could be enormous. He couldn't help but wonder what lay beneath the surface of this so-called software company.
274Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDJG8vTgWvM
274Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjmYUieHWGT
"I'm curious: do you have any information about the company's owner?"
274Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡivTjooKFux
274Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFqd3U7zAyb
"Unfortunately, we haven't seen any substantial leads yet; it's just a front company. However, we're actively pursuing the investigation, and I'll keep you updated on any developments," his friend assured him.
274Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEf6ZJPFCis
274Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHjNg6aappB
Mathis ended the conversation, his thoughts swirling with possibilities. He turned his gaze toward Bree, who was now reclining provocatively on the bed, her eyes locking onto his with a sultry intensity. For a moment, he hesitated. What are we doing? he wondered, the line between his professional duty and personal desires blurring. But then, he pushed those thoughts aside and approached her, sitting on the edge of the bed.
274Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjEynBjXQpd
274Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL1VCYlZFxR
As their eyes met in a wordless exchange, he felt a surge of conflicting emotions—desire, guilt, and something deeper, more dangerous. His fingertips gently traced the contours of her hair, caressing each strand before gliding down to her cheek. The warmth of her skin under his touch sent a jolt of electricity through him, awakening a primal need he hadn't felt in a long time.
274Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB91TONaqTC
274Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqJZtgN4QmK
But as their lips met, that familiar gnawing sense of dread lingered at the edges of his mind. Is this a mistake? he questioned silently. Yet, as he kissed her, the question faded into the background, replaced by the overwhelming need to lose himself in the moment.
274Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8a7318jOQu
274Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE9u4B88rn5
Their intimate connection was abruptly interrupted by the sharp beep of his phone. Mathis reluctantly pulled away, glancing at the screen. "We've got the coordinates for the company."
274Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxdrbh8UvPG
274Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8pW2yPzXPf
Bree's expression shifted from disappointment to resolve as she rose from the bed. Without a word, they swiftly left the hotel, the air between them thick with unspoken tension. As they drove, the silence was heavy, the recent intimacy now a distant memory. Mathis kept his eyes on the road, but his mind kept drifting back to Bree. Is this all we are now—two people on a mission, using each other to forget the darkness that surrounds us?
274Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBmUNPuFAtO
274Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe9WWTQV9zf
The surrounding area grew increasingly desolate with each passing mile, a stark contrast to the bustling city they had just left behind. The loneliness of the road seeped into Mathis's bones, heightening the sense of isolation that had been gnawing at him since they arrived.
274Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1KMP2ojj8L
274Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1u2f0WjxRo
As they finally reached a quiet, isolated road on the city's outskirts, Mathis's eyes fell upon a sprawling structure by the waterfront. Bringing the vehicle to a stop, he retrieved a pair of binoculars and began calmly surveying the surroundings. The tower appeared imposing, enclosed by a perimeter fence, while guards maintained a regular patrol on foot and in vehicles. The air smelled of salt and distant rain, the tension thickening as he realized how fortified the building was.
274Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7VD4xdvsSJ
274Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡurphUPIlqQ
This won't be easy, he thought, a familiar metallic taste of fear settling on his tongue. "The building is heavily fortified. I recommend we attempt this at night. Take a look for yourself."
274Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHm19BXzz2P
274Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvpZosRKsCB
Passing the binoculars to Bree, he watched as she surveyed the scene. Her brow furrowed in concentration, her breathing steady. She was always calm under pressure.
274Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwZ51lQ8isk
274Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9SpGhbDMrx
Under the cloak of night, Mathis and Bree cautiously made their way toward a towering office building adorned with dazzling lights that pierced through the darkness. The city felt eerily deserted, as if the very air had taken on the weight of their mission. Most of the staff had departed, leaving the streets silent, save for the faint hum of distant traffic. The duo approached a formidable fence marked with bold trespassing warnings. Mathis, ever the professional, skillfully handled a laser cutter, igniting a shower of sparks as it sliced through the metal barrier. The only sound in the stillness was the gentle whir of the tool, yet his mind was a storm of thoughts.
274Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG4KRrgt5zp
274Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZYidxEXJgw
This should have been a straightforward job, Mathis mused, his jaw tightening. In and out, no complications. So why do I feel like we're walking into a trap?
274Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVkZRna46T3
274Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlWZCjua5bF
Bree, standing beside him, was equally on edge. Her eyes darted to the shadows, scanning for any sign of movement. She couldn't shake the unease gnawing at her gut. We've done jobs like this before, so why does this one feel different? Bree wondered. She glanced at Mathis, catching the tension in his posture. For a moment, she considered voicing her concerns but decided against it. He's got enough on his mind without me adding to it.
274Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAUUP9xWOxN
274Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd3EdC0Nec0
With the fence breached, they slipped through the opening and ventured into the enclosed area. A hush fell over the surroundings, the once faint city noise now completely drowned out by the pounding of their own hearts. The sound of their footsteps echoed across the expansive green expanse, a stark contrast to the isolation they felt. They suddenly stopped beside a motionless truck, a solitary figure of tranquility in the vast open area. It seemed like the perfect moment to advance, but a glance at the increased number of guards made them both uneasy.
274Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6qUyaekcg9
274Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfhdevjK891
Mathis clenched his fists. Damn it, I hate it when Intel is wrong. He glanced at Bree, who was already eyeing the guards with calculated precision. She's always so calm, even when things go south. How does she do it?
274Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6FOaCrkSHX
274Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5fPgb9xOgb
Bree noticed his gaze and offered a reassuring smile, though it didn't quite reach her eyes. Stay focused, Mathis. We've handled worse. She tried to project confidence, but the sight of so many guards was unnerving. We can't afford any mistakes tonight.
274Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4xlY08xjMu
274Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFdxj4IcMiu
When the opportunity presented itself, they dashed across the road and hurried toward the side entrance door. The urgency in Mathis's voice was barely concealed. "Pick up the pace, Bree," he whispered urgently, glancing over his shoulder as two guards appeared to be heading in their direction.
274Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ08jBVPEYrd
274Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUAbA6Lal3s
"I'm on it," Bree responded, her voice steady despite the rising tension. She carefully extracted a small, sleek box from her pocket. Placing the device against the electronic lock, she watched as it emitted a soft beep. The lock's indicator changed from red to green, and she felt a brief flicker of relief. At least something's going right tonight. As the door swung open, they hurried inside, narrowly avoiding the guards as they rounded the corner.
274Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrvZw5IOZdv
274Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBwGqd6r2sZ
"That was a close call," Bree muttered, wiping beads of sweat from her forehead. "We'll need to move even quicker next time."
274Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8M59WmElrN
274Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCCJCpz75md
"Agreed," Mathis replied, his tone clipped. We can't afford any more close calls. Not with what's at stake.
274Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLYEFA7jyFT
274Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO52NNGMngu
As they glanced around the emergency stairwell, Bree managed a small smile in response. The walls were illuminated with a soft, comforting green light, and discreet cameras were strategically positioned at various points. This place is too secure for comfort, Bree thought, her mind racing as she assessed their situation. Whoever set this up knew exactly what they were doing.
274Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQE1BjHpciY
274Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb6IOA0EHXa
Mathis carefully extracted the watch from his arm, anticipation building in the air. Brillo better be right about this, he thought, pressing the two buttons as instructed, his fingers trembling with a mix of excitement and dread. He hoped the cameras were now deactivated. Slowly, they descended the stairs, hyper-aware of the surveillance cameras at every turn. Mathis silently prayed the system would function as promised, knowing the success of their mission hinged on it. If this fails, we're as good as dead.
274Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQKXVeXDBPV
274Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2tUShfP6sc
When they reached the basement, the main entrance to the data storage loomed ahead. Mathis bent down and opened the door slowly, peering into a long gray corridor with a guard seated at a central desk. Large glass windows lined the corridor, offering a clear view of the massive black computer systems up and running inside.
274Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMHv49UDvF9
274Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDnCmvUEw5s
This is it, Mathis thought, feeling the weight of the moment. No turning back now.
274Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJE7M6TE62N
274Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNJWcJjRQik
He quietly turned the doorknob and slipped into the dimly lit hallway. Moving cautiously, almost as if gliding, he kept his body low and close to the wall as he approached the guard. As the guard reached for his coffee mug, Mathis acted swiftly, sliding his arm around the guard's neck and applying pressure until the man slumped unconscious in his chair.
274Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxlSiBv3w1c
274Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5I70fK4vj7
Bree watched from the shadows, her heart pounding. Every time he does that, I hold my breath, she thought, feeling a mix of admiration and anxiety. He makes it look easy, but I know it's anything but.
274Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRpCoOoPOkR
274Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ223Rta8J9u
As they approached the main door to the data center, Bree kept a sharp lookout for any patrolling guards. One wrong move, and we're done for. With a swift, stealthy movement, Mathis slipped the access card he'd taken from the guard into the lock, and the door slid open, granting them entry.
274Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMNGnyeJ0GX
274Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2np9sPbg4d
The room was engulfed in darkness, illuminated only by a haunting blue light that cast eerie shadows. The towering black machines loomed before them, their presence imposing and otherworldly. Bree's breath caught in her throat as she took in the sight of 12 imposing electronic data blocks within the colossal chamber.
274Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqN9kHJbF4w
274Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL9UtPH3XlP
How the hell are we supposed to take all of this down? Bree thought, a surge of doubt washing over her. She turned to Mathis, her astonishment clear on her face. "Is it possible for us to shut down all of these systems?"
274Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE6eZ44ch7D
274Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡntKc26SCgO
Mathis's mind raced. I'm no computer geek. I prefer things that go boom, not... whatever this is. He fumbled for his phone, frustration bubbling to the surface. "Hi, Brillo. I need your help."
274Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡco7SmK148p
274Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3nt7AiSeLH
"Hello, Kristensen," came Brillo's calm voice on the other end. "You'll need to locate the main computer. Use the mini USB stick hidden in the watch I provided. Once you insert it into the main computer, the contents of the USB stick will install automatically."
274Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtRSGEY0ecD
274Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1g4jnsbvPG
Mathis listened, tension mounting. This better work, or we're screwed. He glanced at Bree, who was pacing slightly, her eyes darting around the room. She's worried too. We can't afford to lose our nerve now.
274Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfbjUNDZPCm
274Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY6c7mRen0w
"So, Brillo, you're suggesting we simply insert the USB stick, and the computer will handle everything else?" Mathis asked, skepticism creeping into his voice.
274Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrbx2AL1tL3
274Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3l8M1EethY
"Yes, Mathis," Brillo replied, his confidence unwavering.
274Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWWS8pBg2AO
274Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhlcVG9UXQK
Mathis nodded, though he wasn't entirely convinced. This is too simple. Things are never this simple. He carefully inserted the mini USB stick into the main computer. The system responded immediately, initiating the software download, the progress displayed on a small adjacent screen. As they anxiously awaited the completion, the sound of approaching footsteps caught their attention.

274Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ292ruvPi5B
274Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrAutafwQjJ
Bree's heart skipped a beat. Damn it, we're out of time. She shot Mathis a warning look before slipping into the hall to intercept the approaching guard. "I'll handle this," she whispered, her voice steely.
274Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKHDPuZLjXo
274Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYppilUQuPi
Amid the tension, Mathis was startled by the sudden sound of gunshots, followed by Bree's piercing cry.
274Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxjfX0kwkNS
274Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrQyXhCn0eK
"Mathis! We need to leave this place immediately!" Bree exclaimed, panic lacing her voice.
274Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO1ZeHiAg4H
274Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ87CKAw75w4
Mathis's blood ran cold. No, no, this can't be happening now. He dashed out of the computer room, his mind reeling. The system hadn't finished downloading, and he knew leaving now could jeopardize everything. But Bree...
274Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf0Y7HBur7V
274Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBvCMPTeUe0
He stumbled into the hallway, where Bree stood over a security guard's body, her face pale but determined. "We must get out now, or we'll be caught!" she shouted, her desperation mirroring his own.
274Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0KxrldC7rn
274Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJPqQLc4jSX
Mathis's mind raced. "What about the download?" he asked, torn between completing the mission and getting Bree to safety.
274Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTcss1yoaGb
274Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJnd4TcP5Ti
"I hope it's finished," Bree replied, her voice strained. "But we can't stay to find out."
274Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbgt6cFHqtz
274Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlyJtNji5t4
Mathis cursed under his breath. We're in too deep. He hastily grabbed the USB stick, hoping it had done its job, and sprinted towards the exit. As they reached the door, Mathis glanced outside. The facility was eerily quiet. Too quiet. This is bad.
274Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkChsZ49FUf
274Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyKm2GoJ3nR
"Stop! Stand still!" a guard shouted, his voice cutting through the silence like a knife.
274Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNTqFPjNt2I
274Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyGfhFh93DT
A shrill alarm suddenly pierced the air, and Mathis's heart sank as a swarm of guards appeared, sprinting towards them. He and Bree swiftly sought refuge behind the weathered truck they had sheltered behind earlier.
274Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxoVBsCmoPm
274Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEcgEkejJbp
"This is about to get ugly," Mathis muttered, his mind racing with escape plans. We're trapped. How the hell are we going to get out of this?
274Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE3jyg66rhU
274Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPWCFZ7a3dH
Bree, already reaching for her weapon, shot him a mischievous grin despite the danger. "Well, this was supposed to be a piece of cake, wasn't it, Mathis?"
274Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2URE2mI6UM
274Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7hpQ715FfJ
Mathis tensed as the unmistakable staccato of automatic gunfire echoed towards them. He focused intently on the truck as a guard unleashed a barrage of bullets from his assault rifle, the shots landing perilously close to Mathis's head. Reacting quickly, Mathis dropped into a crouch and returned fire, sending several rounds towards the guard.
274Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAUCj2PU2Gc
274Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw2wyhgBE0X
The guard let out a pained cry as he crumpled to the ground. More guards came running from various directions, their shouts blending with the reverberating gunfire in the expansive building. Mathis and Bree unleashed a volley of shots at the oncoming guards, the thundering sounds creating a symphony of chaos. The air was thick with the sharp crack of bullets and the anguished screams of the falling guards.
274Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZPKIGmE2KH
274Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ12jp8DNLcf
As Mathis scanned the area, he spotted two ominous black SUVs pulling up at the entrance. Two civilian guards emerged from the building, followed by Eva. Shock and dread swept through him as he locked eyes with her.
274Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu6jy6DRlGE
274Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwtnFj8mw05
How did it come to this? Mathis thought, his breath catching in his throat. Eva—the woman he'd once trusted—stood there with a cruel smile, her eyes devoid of the warmth he remembered. Their past flooded back to him in an instant: the late-night conversations, the shared laughter, the missions where they had each other's backs. And now, she was on the other side, her allegiance with the Shadow Front a dagger to his heart.
274Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡigDTtcsyOQ
274Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDvNf0oSxw2
A chilling smile spread across Eva's face as her eyes turned dark with malice before she disappeared into one of the SUVs. Mathis felt as though he'd been sucker-punched in the gut by the sense of betrayal. With narrowed eyes, he swiftly aimed at the nearest guards. Bree dashed toward a small shed by the fence, prompting Mathis to follow, but he paused as he reached a towering advertising sign for the building.
274Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLZagGVT1DT
274Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqygUIsDsrb
He set up the gun and breathed calmly. Turning toward the guards running towards them, he squeezed the trigger. Bullets flew out of the barrel, and the screams of wounded guards filled the air as they fell to the ground.
274Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrpaXNphJ3H
274Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIxGifUvxT6
Mathis blinked before pulling the trigger again, sending bullets toward the large truck they had been hiding behind earlier. A massive explosion followed as the truck erupted in flames, throwing several guards aside from the force of the blast. Mathis scanned the area to ensure no more guards were nearby before noticing the two black SUVs pulling away.
274Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXAYkgMVkYF
274Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4uIxD6uF1O
As the SUVs disappeared into the distance, a part of him wanted to chase after them—to demand answers from Eva, to know why she had chosen this path. But he knew better. There were no answers that could heal the wound she had just inflicted.
274Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBWQObdIZC3
274Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ47HeZVFPSs
He quietly holstered his gun and rushed toward the fence, where he met Bree. Together, they leaped into the waiting car and sped away from the chaotic scene. A deep sadness lingered in their eyes as they shared wordless emotions—the distant echoes of explosions adding to the tense atmosphere between them.
