**INT. CHRONOS TOWER CORRIDOR - CONTINUOUS**
Valentine groans, pushing himself up from the rubble. The laboratory is gone, replaced by a gaping hole in the tower's side. Rain pours through the opening.
Kane... is he...
I don't know. But we need to move before the tower collapses completely.
Thorne helps him to his feet, his expression grim.
The temporal surge... it's spreading across the city.
Valentine looks out through the hole, gasping at what he sees. The city is fracturing - buildings flickering between different time periods, people appearing and disappearing, the sky shifting between day and night in rapid succession.
The timeline is unraveling.
