New objective - Quantum Fold Chapter 6/5

Adrienne fixed her gaze on K’hall, her voice steady but laced with urgency. “Our mission is to locate and destroy the reptilian nest. If Kayla’s double is operating with the same objective, she’ll be drawn to it. Help us find the nest, and we may find her.”

 

K’hall said nothing. He paced slowly, his expression unreadable.

 

Kayla turned facing K’hall, “The reptiles only breed one time then die off. Once their eggs are destroyed, their forces will collapse. No more breeding, no more reinforcements. And with that, the threat of them breaching the veil will be gone—for good.”

 

K’hall halted mid-step. “Bext,” he called, his voice low but commanding.

 

A tall figure emerged from the bright light of the bridge. Her frost-white hair shimmered under the overhead lights, and her blue eyes sharp. She moved with quiet precision, her presence commanding without a word.

 

“What intelligence do we have on the lizards’ breeding grounds?” K’hall asked.

 

Bext moved to the nearest console, fingers gliding across the interface. The screen flickered to life, casting a pale glow across her face. After a moment, she turned back to him. “Nothing. No records. No patterns. Their breeding sites are not in our data base.”

 

K’hall’s gaze shifted to Adrienne, then to Kayla. “Our data on the lizards is extensive—but it’s all tactical. Military deployments. Human infiltration and enslavement. Their reproductive infrastructure is a blind spot.”

 

Kayla stood stepping to the console. “I have coordinates of the nest location from my time. The Earth has changed—tectonic drift, submerged regions—but they might still point us in the right direction.”

 

She recited the coordinates, each number a location long lost. Bext entered them into the system, the screen flickering as it processed the data.

 

K’hall nodded. “Bext, cross-reference those coordinates with all known subterranean structures. Instruct every ship in the fleet to initiate deep scans of underground sectors. If there’s a nest buried beneath the surface, I want it found.”

 

Bext gave a crisp nod and turned back to the console, her fingers already summoning the fleet-wide command.

 

The room fell into a tense silence, broken only by the soft hum of scanners coming online.

 

K’hall ran his hand through his hair. “And now we wait for the scans and listen for your double to activate her device.”
