**INT. GENESIS LAB SERVICE CORRIDOR - CONTINUOUS**
The service corridor is sterile and white, with humming machinery lining the walls. Elara leads them through a series of twists and turns, avoiding security cameras.
We need to reach the central chamber. That's where the anchor point is located.
And the test subjects?
They're kept in stasis pods in the same chamber. But we'll need to move quickly. The stasis system is tied to the main power grid. If we disrupt the anchor point, it could release them... or worse.
They reach a junction in the corridor. Elara consults her device.
This way. But we need to avoid the main security station. They'll detect us if we get too close.
She leads them down a narrow maintenance passage. As they turn a corner, they nearly run into two Chronos guards patrolling the corridor.
Hey! Who are you? Identify yourselves!
Valentine reacts instantly, grabbing Thorne and pulling him back around the corner just as the guards open fire. Energy blasts hit the wall where they were standing.
We need to move. Now!
They break into a run, heading deeper into the facility.
