Twisted Tales: Aladdin Chapter Two Teaser

The next post for my futuristic re-imagined Aladdin will be up next week. Here's a short teaser!


Alád strode through the halls of the underground bunker toward the elevator at the end of the corridor. The red running lights along the floor illuminated his way, but were also scanning him for explosives, weapons, and any biological signs that he might be planning something stupid. When he reached the elevator, he held his wrist up to be scanned, the neon green light leaving a prickling trail down his forearm. The elevator doors opened and closed behind him. He didn't have to press any buttons, it only descended one floor. He emptied out of the elevator only to walk to another at the opposite end of this hallway. He stood very still, the retinal scan would fail if he moved even a little bit. After three failed attempts the whole facility went into lockdown. Alád was at the headquarters of an agency made up of representatives from CIA, MI-6, Mossad, and  Hezbollah. It was the top secret of the top secret. So much so that it didn't have a name; because it didn't exist.
