Bloodstained Boardroom Betrayal

Lois

(The security alert just flashed red. Someone's still in the building after hours.)

Amity

The quarterly reports aren't adding up. Someone's been embezzling from the LGBTQ+ fund.

Luz

(I saw him. The CFO. He's deleting files. He knows we found out.)

Lois

Stay calm. Document everything. He's cornered now.

Amity

(He's coming this way. I need to warn Luz. We need to get out now.)

Luz

(He's not alone. The security guard is with him. They're both in on it.)

Lois

The 27th floor. No fire escape. We're trapped.

Amity

(The phones are dead. The doors are locked. And he's smiling. Like he planned this all along.)

Luz

(The lights keep flickering. I heard Amity scream from the conference room, but now... silence.)

Luz

Amity? Amity, where are you?

Luz

(The blood... it's fresh. But where's her body? Where's Lois?)

Luz

They're watching. They want me to see this.

Luz

(The elevators are dead. Stairs are blocked. They planned this perfectly.)

Amity

(Mmph! Luz, don't come closer! It's a trap!)

Luz

The supply closet... I can see her through the glass. She's alive, but...

Luz

(The access code... Lois used it yesterday. 0-4-2-7. If I can just...)

Luz

(Five attempts. I'm down to three. The timer's counting down. 00:03... 00:02...)

Luz

(Mmph! Let go! Amity, are you okay?)

Amity

(Luz! Behind you!)

Lois

Luz, Amity—move! He's right behind me!

Luz

Two minutes forty-seven. Lois, what's the plan?

Lois

(Keep him talking. Get Amity free. The ventilation shaft—it's our only way out.)

Amity

The phones—same number. "Two minutes." But look... it's counting down to something else.

Luz

(The ventilation system... it's rigged. Those aren't sensors—they're detonators.)

Lois

Chemical storage. Floor 27. He didn't just trap us... he's going to erase the evidence.

Luz

Amity? AMITY, what are you doing—

Amity

(I can't stop! My body won't listen!)

Lois

It's a possession glyph! Cut the tape—NOW!

Luz

(Can't breathe... she's too strong...)

Amity

(The glyph... it's gone!)

Luz

You're back... you're okay...

Lois

(The glyph fragments... they're forming a new symbol. Not possession. Something worse.)

Amity

Two minutes, Lois Lane. Tick tock. The bomb isn't in the chemicals. It's in us.
