📜 STORYLINE (OVERVIEW)
---
ACT I: THE MEMORY THIEF

Lency, once a top-tier operative of Division 9, has gone rogue after stealing a forbidden artifact called the Root Key—a spiral memory device that contains fragments of erased lives, including her own. As she tries to upload it to a hidden server, she's ambushed by Division 9 enforcers—led by Alex, her former mentor, now a cold memory-hunting machine.

Barely escaping, Lency teams up with Kim, a rogue tech genius who once worked on Division 9's mind-control tech. Together, they decode the Root Key and discover that Division 9 has been erasing and rewriting the memories of hundreds—agents, activists, even civilians—recasting them into loyal operatives.

ACT II: THE GHOST RECRUIT

Meanwhile, Janelle, a quiet new recruit inside Division 9, secretly works as a double agent. She is searching for the truth about her brother—who disappeared years ago and may now live as a rewritten agent in the field. As she rises through Division 9's ranks, she uncovers their dark archive—called The Vault—where they store personality backups and manipulate history.

Kim locates a deeper signal hidden within the Root Key—a key that can reverse the memory wipe—but only if used at Division 9's central AI hub, protected by layers of military drones, encrypted security, and psychological defenses.

ACT III: SABOTAGE INITIATED

As memories begin to reawaken in Lency, she’s haunted by fragmented visions: of another life, another mission, another name. She was never just an agent—she was part of Project Echo, a failed prototype to create emotionally-enhanced memory saboteurs. Her memory was the first one Division 9 ever fully reconstructed.

Janelle is exposed as a traitor inside Division 9 and must decide: escape alone—or open the Vault and unleash the truth to the world.

Lency, Kim, and Janelle converge at the heart of the city for one final break-in: into The Vault itself. There, Alex awaits—his mind half-machine, half-memory, loyal only to Steve, the mastermind behind Division 9.

In a brutal final showdown, Lency must face both Alex and the false identity she was programmed to believe.

The choice: erase the entire Vault and risk destroying thousands of minds—or restore them all and let chaos reveal itself.

✨ CHAPTER 1: "The Upload" --- Nairobi Sector-9 // 3:42 AM The rain fell like broken wires. Lency gripped the throttle of the pulse-bike with one hand, the other pressed against her bleeding side. Lightning stitched the sky as she turned into a narrow alley, the city’s neon veins flickering across puddles of oil and forgotten blood. The safehouse was exactly where she remembered it: tucked between a collapsed archive building and a long-dead power station. It was barely standing—just brick, rust, and digital ghosts humming faintly in the walls. She skidded to a stop, swung off the bike, and kicked in the steel door. --- Inside: cold. Rotten dust. Static in the air. She limped to the back wall, ripped away a false panel, and revealed a long-forgotten terminal. Ancient tech—hardwired, untraceable, analog enough to trick the modern watchers. She shoved the blood-stained USB into the port. The screen crackled to life. > UPLOAD STARTED — 1%… “Kim,” she whispered into...

✨ Chapter 5: “The Ghost Recruit” --- INT. DIVISION 9 – SUBLEVEL ACCESS The lift moved like a coffin on a wire. Janelle stood still, arms folded behind her back, expression unreadable. The elevator walls pulsed faint blue as internal scanners ran silently across her body—bones, muscles, emotions. > “Vitals: stable.” “Loyalty Signature: 96%.” “Emotional Drift: suppressed.” “Memory Sync: intact.” But they didn’t know. The readings were lies—reflections from a hollow mask she’d built over years of forced obedience. And deep beneath the layers of implanted memory and scripted patriotism… she was wide awake. --- FLASHBACK – TWO YEARS EARLIER A crumbling apartment. A real Nairobi, not the synthetic one built by Division 9’s towers. Her brother, Malik, sat on the floor across from her, holding a glowing pendant. > “They’re watching people now,” he whispered. “Not just with cameras. With code. Through memories.” > “That’s insane.” > “They’re rewriting activists. Hackers....
