**INT. UNDERGROUND TRANSPORT - CONTINUOUS**

Thorne slams his hand on a control panel, and the vehicle's engines roar to life. The rear hatch seals just as enforcers reach the chamber.

THORNE 

Hold on!

The vehicle lurches forward, accelerating through a narrow tunnel that opens into a larger underground cavern. Thorne expertly navigates through the darkness, using headlights to illuminate the way.

VALENTINE 

Where are we going?

THORNE 

The safe house. But first, we need to regroup. There are others who can help us.

The transport emerges onto a deserted road, cutting through a dense forest. Thorne increases speed, putting distance between them and the observatory.

THORNE (CONT'D) 

What you saw back there... it's worse than even I imagined. Chronos isn't just trying to control time - they're trying to weaponize it.

VALENTINE 

How? What's their endgame?

Thorne's expression is grim.

THORNE 

They believe that by controlling key moments in history, they can reshape the present to their will. Create a timeline where Chronos rules absolutely.

Valentine stares out the window, processing this information. If Chronos succeeds, they could rewrite history itself.

VALENTINE 

We have to stop them.
