Chapter 2: Marcus's Greatest Experiment

The image disappeared.
Oliver clutched Damian's hand tighter.
"He's really my brother?"
Arthur nodded.
"Marcus kidnapped him the night he was born."
Damian's face hardened.
"For what?"
Arthur answered with visible shame.
"Marcus believed children could be shaped into whatever he wanted."
"He raised Daniel as his heir."
"He erased every memory of his real family."
"He told him his parents abandoned him."
Eliza collapsed into a pew, sobbing.
"My baby..."
Arthur reached into his jacket.
From inside...
He pulled a small silver bracelet.
Tiny.
Worn with age.
Engraved with one word.
Daniel.
"I stole this before Marcus found out."
"I promised myself..."
"If I ever escaped..."
"I'd bring him home."
Suddenly...
The church speakers crackled again.
Marcus chuckled.
"You still think Daniel wants a family?"
The monitors switched on once more.
This time...
Daniel himself appeared.
Dressed in black.
Cold eyes.
Expressionless.
He looked directly into the camera.
"My name isn't Daniel."
"It's Project Zero."
Then...
The screen went black.
