The streets of Mumbai were eerily quiet. The night hung thick with mystery, as if every corner hid a secret waiting to be uncovered. The streetlights flickered, their light dimming as though fatigued from years of illuminating the city’s dark corners. In the middle of it all, a narrow alley lay ahead.
20Please respect copyright.PENANAeXK0iIZrRv
In that alley stood a warehouse... its doors rusted with time. Whenever the wind passed, the doors creaked as if mourning a forgotten tale from the past.
20Please respect copyright.PENANA0FbHiTUMbz
Inside the warehouse, time had seemingly stopped.
20Please respect copyright.PENANADVSdFfK0qo
Yuvaan Mehra, dressed in a long black trench coat, sat hunched on a broken stool. Darkness had settled in his eyes, the remnants of a truth he had uncovered just hours ago. Sweat covered his face, but it wasn’t the sweat from heat—it was the sweat from the dark reality that had just infiltrated his mind.
20Please respect copyright.PENANAguo1PC070k
"I am the one... the one betrayed by his own gang, left to die for nothing..." he thought to himself.
20Please respect copyright.PENANAUYpuUT7i7L
His hand moved to his chest, the place where he had first found it—the symbol, a small chip. An invisible device. The chip contained a voice recorder and an encrypted location tracker. This was where it all began.
20Please respect copyright.PENANAd2eP8BJX5k
Suddenly, a voice echoed in his ear.
20Please respect copyright.PENANAmLj0bliPMi
[VOICE: Metallic, Unknown Source] "Welcome back... Agent 313. Your reward is ready."
20Please respect copyright.PENANANWlFnEfYlV
Yuvaan flinched.
20Please respect copyright.PENANAGJekOaxUcq
“This voice... I’ve never heard it before. But why did it call me ‘Agent’? I was just a regular middle-class guy... but what have I become now?”
20Please respect copyright.PENANAacLFBzfXjB
In front of him, a digital screen appeared in mid-air. The voice spoke again:
20Please respect copyright.PENANA3Zk1nrHX5o
"Your first reward: 'Spectra-Mic'—an advanced sonic frequency analyzer, capable of revealing the truth hidden behind any word."
20Please respect copyright.PENANA7V3nrsHKWI
Yuvaan stared at the screen, which displayed a file titled: "CASE: SANGAM - The Doctor Who Never Existed."
20Please respect copyright.PENANAb6l93FTCvU
There were secrets hidden in the shadows of this city that had never seen the light. Some secrets were not secrets at all—they were maps to another world.
20Please respect copyright.PENANA780roXn9Sp
This is the story of a boy... believed to be dead. But he wasn’t dead—he had been reborn. In a form that only death could recognize. Yuvaan Mehra... was no longer just a name, he was becoming a legend.
20Please respect copyright.PENANArS3iHFxIEk
In the corner of the warehouse lay an old, dusty diary. Yuvaan picked it up.
20Please respect copyright.PENANAqvjwOhKkGv
“This could be my father’s... or perhaps, the one who made me what I am now.”
20Please respect copyright.PENANAln9TWDpie5
On the first page, the title read: "Project Black Nest - Confidential."
20Please respect copyright.PENANAvNyPl9Upd6
As he turned the pages, a small photo slipped out. A little girl, smiling innocently, but her eyes held the same pain that had taken root in his soul.
20Please respect copyright.PENANAh8kEaEhR0y
He found a name written in the diary—Dr. Rehaan Arora.
20Please respect copyright.PENANAZoMJDk2p7k
Yuvaan thought, "This name... I’ve heard it before. In a place where the line between life and death was blurred. Was this doctor the one who brought me back to life? Or did he kill me and turn me into something else?"
20Please respect copyright.PENANAiWvAaaR8hQ
The screen activated again.
20Please respect copyright.PENANAMORLz8zvqs
[VOICE] "You have 72 hours. Find the girl. Her memory holds the map to The Ark."
20Please respect copyright.PENANAD4xdO67rjo
Yuvaan immediately stood up.
20Please respect copyright.PENANAP5hBHIwZSX
“Who is this girl? And what is 'The Ark'?”
20Please respect copyright.PENANAPFris8HDdk
(The Ark... a place mentioned only in one book—Codex Umbra—a manuscript seen only by those marked by death’s shadow.)

20Please respect copyright.PENANA7Pv0HDNjCi
The CCTV feed in the security room was glitching. A shadowy figure appeared on the screen—tall, cloaked, and faceless.
20Please respect copyright.PENANAFkBUixL4QP
The guard nervously said, “Sir, there’s something inside. The human readings don’t match.”
20Please respect copyright.PENANAduE4omvlbW
In the control room sat Mr. Vaidya, a research analyst who once worked for RAW. His eyes reflected a pain as though he had burned his own family alive with his own hands.
20Please respect copyright.PENANArcOVifyDdO
Mr. Vaidya spoke coldly, “Agent 313 is back. And this time... his mission is personal.”

Location: Yuvaan meets an Underworld Contact - Vikrant
20Please respect copyright.PENANAzBcBEFUfWx
Yuvaan walked into a shady underworld contact’s den. The man’s name was Vikrant. Once a black-market hacker, now a fugitive.
20Please respect copyright.PENANAvgbuGctZzV
Vikrant nervously spoke, “Yuvaan... but... you were dead!”
20Please respect copyright.PENANAGSpGkTBmaK
Yuvaan, in a cold tone: “Dying is easy, Vikrant. Coming back is the hard part. I need a girl—don’t know her name, but she has a tattoo on her hand. A butterfly.”
20Please respect copyright.PENANAZSVfF5hFSQ
Vikrant typed furiously on his computer. The screen blinked, revealing an image. A name appeared.
20Please respect copyright.PENANAXfozOMB7fH
“Name: Kiara Fernandes—Former psychiatric patient, missing since 2017.”
20Please respect copyright.PENANA4kJuwPakN7
Yuvaan’s gaze froze.
20Please respect copyright.PENANAhmf7a1H7rj
Yuvaan (thinking to himself): “This is her. But she’s not just missing... her existence seems to have vanished. It’s as if she was never real.”
20Please respect copyright.PENANAAHUICgn4Xe
And thus began the journey—where memories became weapons and every face was just another mask.

In the warehouse, the lights flickered. The chip activated. A hologram appeared. It was Kiara, standing in the middle of a jungle. Her eyes didn’t hold tears, but fear.
20Please respect copyright.PENANAbYRrwVhCa5
Kiara (hologram): “If you’re seeing this, Yuvaan... it means you’re back. But remember... the one you’re searching for is closer to you than you realize.”
20Please respect copyright.PENANAiOVshP7Sb9
Yuvaan (shocked): “Kiara... you know me?”

Once a busy underground station, now only memories and unsolved mysteries remained.
20Please respect copyright.PENANAQP2GnC9LM3
A shadow moved through the tunnel, holding an ancient device—its signal matching the one from Yuvaan’s chip.
20Please respect copyright.PENANA9VcFz8ahUr
The first mystery was just the beginning. Every case was a puzzle, with each piece connected to another source of pain. Yuvaan M
