Chapter 37 - Chapter 37 — Ghosts of the Past

The dimly lit corridor of the building stretched endlessly, shadows dancing on cracked walls. Feriha led the way, her tightened Eric's hand. Eric moved beside her, alert and precise, while Ravihan scanned the surroundings with a heightened intensity, his mind sharp and calculating.

Selene's laughter echoed, mocking yet distant, and the traps ahead seemed almost sentient, ready to strike.

Feriha whispered, "We have to be careful… she's watching every move." 👀

Ravihan paused, his eyes narrowing. The design of the traps reminded him of something from his past ;an ambush from years ago in his village, where he had once failed to save someone he cared for.

"This layout…" he muttered. "I've seen this before. I know how to handle it." 🗞

Eric glanced at him, surprise flickering in his eyes. "You do?"

Ravihan nodded. "I survived that day by staying calm, analyzing the pattern, predicting the enemy's moves. We can do the same; together."

Feriha felt a surge of hope. "Then lead us, Ravihan." 👏

Step by step, he guided them through the labyrinthine traps, recalling techniques and maneuvers that had once saved lives. Eric and Feriha followed his instructions precisely, their trust in him absolute. 😎

Sparks flew and shadows shifted, but Ravihan's steady commands, Eric's precise movements, and Feriha's courage allowed them to navigate each trap successfully. 😏

At the end of the corridor, the trio paused, breathing heavily, hearts pounding, but alive.

Feriha glanced at Ravihan, gratitude and admiration in her eyes. "Your past… it's helping us survive now." 💆

He gave a faint smile, almost to himself. "Sometimes, the things that haunt us become our greatest strength."

Selene's laughter echoed faintly, though now tinged with frustration. She hadn't expected them to adapt so quickly. 😑

Feriha's heart tightened, realizing the final confrontation was closer than ever; and that every lesson from the past, every bond they shared, would be crucial in the fight ahead.
