Leo, Sofia, Owen, and Evelyn left the council chamber, each with their own thoughts racing through their minds. Despite the brief respite in the Reclaimer base, they knew they couldn't rest easy. Drake's capture was a victory, but it was merely a single battle in a much larger war.
The Reclaimer base was a sprawling complex with multiple levels and a network of tunnels. The team had a small base of operations within the complex, a safe space to regroup and plan their next moves. As they entered their quarters, Leo felt a sense of unease. The walls seemed to close in on him, and he knew that the real danger was still out there.
"I don't like this," Sofia said, pacing the room. "Drake's allies won't just sit back and do nothing. They're going to try to free him, and they'll come after us for revenge."
