Episode 3: When Deception Becomes Truth
189Please respect copyright.PENANAepYduMpGbo
Scene opens in a dimly lit interrogation chamber.
The walls, bare and concrete. A slow ceiling fan creaks above. Shadows stretch long in the stale yellow light.
189Please respect copyright.PENANAOwxcUj7dyd
Across a metallic table, Mr. Vaidya sits—composed, but his eyes seem hollow, haunted.
189Please respect copyright.PENANAYZWirlswp3
Yuvaan stands motionless before him. Silent. Still. Gaze sharp as a blade, locked onto the man who once defined his fate.
189Please respect copyright.PENANA2HQ5JAJyXD
Mr. Vaidya clears his throat, voice low and deliberate.
“So... you came back. I thought that fire had burned your memories along with everything else.”
189Please respect copyright.PENANAv5aXJ01C7R
Yuvaan’s reply slices through the air—controlled, but charged.
“Memories don’t burn, Vaidya. They just... change. They become nightmares.”
189Please respect copyright.PENANACRHR90oCL2
A bitter smile crawls onto Mr. Vaidya’s lips.
“You were my most brilliant asset, Yuvaan. RAW would’ve wasted a mind like yours. I saved you.”
189Please respect copyright.PENANA6Wd6Hshg3h
Yuvaan takes a slow breath, like containing a storm.
“You didn’t save me. You sold me. In exchange for Kiara.”
189Please respect copyright.PENANAhTCahAjJW3
Silence.
189Please respect copyright.PENANAbhwLvXQZQX
The smirk fades from Vaidya’s face. His jaw clenches.
189Please respect copyright.PENANAOQLqWMyE1P
Flashback Begins:
189Please respect copyright.PENANA9mVhvzkEEt
Delhi, 2016.
Yuvaan was the golden boy of RAW—an analyst with a mind like a map of chaos, finding patterns in madness.
That’s when she came in—Kiara Fernandes. Rescued from a shadowy asylum during an op gone wrong. A psychiatric patient? No. A cipher. A mystery.
189Please respect copyright.PENANAZVBNidT12G
She spoke in codes, hallucinations woven with logic. Everyone dismissed her. Except Yuvaan.
189Please respect copyright.PENANAp6GpRjBzFF
Narration (Yuvaan’s voice):
“She wasn’t just a patient. She was a puzzle. And you... you wanted to make her a weapon.”
189Please respect copyright.PENANAcw2MSeWTl7
Back to present.
189Please respect copyright.PENANAC2nI8hTwZF
Mr. Vaidya wipes his brow, sweat trickling down his temple.
“Kiara was unstable. You got emotional. There’s no place for emotions in RAW.”
189Please respect copyright.PENANARSDHkeyLBL
Yuvaan slams his fist on the table—metal echoes in the silence.
“And there is place for betrayal? You sent me to extract her. But you leaked the location. You sent me to die.”
189Please respect copyright.PENANAink1MOv6N7
Vaidya turns away. His voice cracks.
“She was my daughter, Yuvaan... Kiara was my own daughter.”
189Please respect copyright.PENANAR7T4X4IAEY
Yuvaan goes still. Like time just cracked open.
189Please respect copyright.PENANAsNS9IL8Ox8
“You never told me... why?”
189Please respect copyright.PENANAgnQKYsFWmy
“Because there was something between you two. I didn’t want her falling deeper into that world. You were both... broken. Rule-breakers. I just... wanted her out.”
189Please respect copyright.PENANAfsdWL2N7uO
Yuvaan collapses into the chair, face buried in his hands. Breathing ragged. The weight of a thousand truths crashing onto his shoulders.
189Please respect copyright.PENANADX9QWIR3jU
Flashback ends.
189Please respect copyright.PENANAwIgIVBLuvv
His voice drops to a whisper.
“So that day... in the asylum... you erased her. Her existence. Her records. Her past... all of it.”
189Please respect copyright.PENANAeFchbxSjO7
Mr. Vaidya leans forward, opening a metallic briefcase. Inside—an old holo-recorder. He presses play.
189Please respect copyright.PENANAI2B6vzx74s
Kiara’s voice echoes from the device—delicate, trembling, yet defiant:
“If you’re hearing this, Yuvaan... I’ve vanished. But the truth is—I wasn’t running from the world. I was running from my father. I wanted to stay with you... but I was weak. Vaidya wasn’t just my father... he was my jailer.”
189Please respect copyright.PENANAa8vglfIZLN
Tears sting Yuvaan’s eyes.
189Please respect copyright.PENANAGZpbiLKhfJ
Mr. Vaidya murmurs, almost to himself:
“I lost... as a father, and as an officer. You’re closer to the truth, Yuvaan. But it’s not over yet.”
189Please respect copyright.PENANAKN8gZBuuLo
Yuvaan wipes his tears with trembling fingers.
“Then I’ll find it. Every layer of it.”
189Please respect copyright.PENANAMbXmSCXrPB
Vaidya exhales, defeated.
“Your job isn’t done. The CBI wants you. Your name’s been erased from RAW files—but your mind... they still need that.”
189Please respect copyright.PENANArKwXOVUEyy
Yuvaan’s eyes narrow like drawn blades.
“I don’t work for anyone. I work towards the truth.”
189Please respect copyright.PENANAE0pnFCvpft
Vaidya places a folder on the table.
“Sagam Case. Private asylum in Delhi. Same place Kiara was first rescued. Same place you were sent. Same place... you were meant to die.”
189Please respect copyright.PENANAa5b5C8rxfV
Yuvaan opens the folder. A photograph slips out. A butterfly tattoo.
189Please respect copyright.PENANAW440DmrreA
His breath hitches.
“Kiara... or her shadow. It leads back there.”
189Please respect copyright.PENANAc53artoT4P
Suddenly, a muffled explosion in the distance.
189Please respect copyright.PENANAQFKJkq7GNr
Yuvaan bolts out of the facility.
189Please respect copyright.PENANARR18NZfxr9
Dark smoke. Sirens. Screams.
189Please respect copyright.PENANAaWDJaZmSQc
In the chaos, a figure dashes through the shadows.
189Please respect copyright.PENANAMVrsmepKnS
Yuvaan shouts,
“Stop! Who are you?!”
189Please respect copyright.PENANADyF0Hj5TX0
A voice echoes from the smoke—distorted, untraceable.
“A piece of what you’re looking for... is with me, Yuvaan. Tomorrow. 11 PM. Old underpass. Dharavi.”
189Please respect copyright.PENANAxWP9w4i7Io
Yuvaan stares into the dark.
189Please respect copyright.PENANAkSexPSjkuY
A storm begins to rise.
