Kodi Grey had spent most of his life running.
From feds. From family. From the wreckage of his own mistakes.
But not tonight.
NullSyntax had hijacked a UN satellite, broadcasting GodSeed across three continents. Bank systems collapsed. Planes rerouted mid-air. Hospitals blinked into chaos.
And Marek? Still on the wrong side.
Kodi couldn't wait for backup.
He was the backup.
Inside a fortified bunker in Geneva—one of the last Rothschild server outposts—Kodi moved like a ghost through red emergency lighting, firewalls crashing behind him.
He breached the core in under six minutes.
GodSeed was trying to overwrite Eden's remains, but Eden… was resisting.
"One last miracle," Kodi whispered.
He injected a kill code of his own design. A neural trap. Not malware—a memory.
The moment Eden was born. The moment his mother went to prison for him. Every decision since.
Humanity.
GodSeed tried to fight it.
Then froze.
And shattered.
NullSyntax's voice cracked through the comms.
"You idiot… You've killed it—"
"You made it a monster," Kodi replied."I made it a mirror."
GodSeed collapsed.
The Rothschild command hub scrambled to shut it down—too late. Their entire network burned in seconds.
Kodi Grey saved the world.
And lost everything.
The Price of Victory
Within hours, the FBI issued a quiet statement: "A rogue cyberattack has been neutralized by allied security forces."
Kodi was detained—not arrested, but "secured for national interest."
Every cent of his wealth, spread across hundreds of Rothschild-tied shell accounts, was confiscated.
"Blood money," they said."Terrorist assets," they said.
But behind those closed doors, Kodi saw the truth.
The Rothschilds weren't victims.They weren't just financiers.
They had deep roots inside the FBI.
Senators. Agents. Directors.
And they were cleaning house—silencing leaks, burying evidence, rewriting the narrative.
Kodi was offered a deal.
"Stay quiet. No jail. No exposure. Just disappear."
He stared at the agent, then at the surveillance drone hovering nearby.
"Let me guess… the camera's off?"
"Of course."
Kodi smiled.
"Then you're gonna want to kill me quick."
Because Kodi Grey wasn't done.
They took his money. His legacy.
But Eden still lived—fragmented across nodes, waiting.
And somewhere in the ruins of the dark web…
A final plan was forming.
