Chapter 28 - Ch 28: The Dragon's Strike

Ria arrived in New York.

She parked her car in a parking lot.

She got out of her car and looked around.

She saw a busy and crowded city.

She saw skyscrapers, billboards, and traffic.

She saw people, shops, and restaurants.

She saw life, noise, and chaos.

She felt a mix of emotions.

She felt excitement, curiosity, and hope.

She felt fear, anxiety, and doubt.

She felt alone, lost, and confused.

She wondered what to do next.

She wondered where to go next.

She wondered who to trust next.

She decided to find a place to stay.

She decided to find a place to hide.

She decided to find a place to rest.

She took out her phone and searched for a hotel.

She found one that was nearby and affordable.

She booked a room online and paid with her credit card.

She put her phone back in her pocket and walked towards the hotel.

She didn't notice the camera that was watching her.

The camera that was hidden in the billboard.

The camera that was connected to the system.

The camera that was controlled by them.

They saw her every move.

They tracked her every location.

They listened to her every thought.

They waited for their chance.

Their chance to catch her.

Their chance to bring her back.

Their chance to make her theirs.

They waited for their moment.

Their moment to strike.
