The scene they stepped into was a nightmare come to life. The once-bustling city was now a smoldering ruin, with buildings engulfed in flames and thick black smoke rising into the air. The streets were littered with debris, and the distant sound of terrified screams filled the air. The sky was an eerie shade of orange, reflecting the destruction below.
Sophia's breath hitched as she took in the devastation. "How did it get this bad so fast?" she whispered, her voice filled with disbelief.
Valentina's eyes darted around, scanning the chaos for any sign of Ronan. "This is… insane. We have to find him before he destroys everything."
Matthew led the way, his jaw clenched in determination.
