Chapter 23: The Mirror Lives
Kane Corp Facility 0.
Somewhere beneath the icy cliffs of the Yukon.
Two guards escorted a hooded woman through automated doors, their boots echoing against steel floors. She walked without fear, without sound.
Dr. Adrian Voss limped toward her, still bandaged from Rina's escape.
"She knows," he said.
The woman removed her hood.
Same face as Rina. But colder. Sharper.
No softness in her eyes.
"Let her know," she replied.
Voss hesitated. "You don't mind being revealed?"
"She's not my enemy," the twin said. "She's my unfinished half."

Back at the lodge, Rina stared at her reflection. Eliot entered quietly, holding a file.
"We found her," he said.
Rina didn't look away from the mirror. "Where?"
"Canada. Off-grid. Kane's core division."
She turned, face hard.
"Then we go."
"You sure?"
She nodded. "I'm done running from ghosts."
Savannah stepped in. "Then it's time for Phase V. Not their experiment—ours."
She placed a tablet on the table.
> PHASE V: COUNTERSTRIKE INITIATED
