Early morning, Mumbai.
86Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAZ5RKpNDTq
The city was just beginning to stir, lights flickering awake like sleepy eyes. But Yuvaan hadn’t slept. Not for days. Sleep had been replaced with suspicion… and shadows.
86Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6F2SRjyjyt
He sat alone on his worn-out sofa, the dim light of the overhead bulb casting long, distorted shapes on the floor. In his hand, he clutched an old wristwatch—its ticking the only sound in the silence. With every second, his fury deepened.

"Mr. Vaidya… RAW… the asylum… it’s all connected. Was I just a pawn? Or something else entirely?" he whispered to himself. But as always, silence answered.

FLASHBACK
86Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcA3MMJWYCB
A flicker—faint but sharp—ripped through his mind: the hologram. Vaidya’s voice echoing within it, revealing that someone else had tampered with his memories. A glimpse of Kiara flashed behind his eyes—those haunted eyes, as if hiding a secret behind every blink.
86Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIjuZmu6XES
"Why did you let me forget, Kiara? Was that butterfly tattoo on your hand… a signal? Or a warning?"

Back to Present
86Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe7Q4YxvQ2E
Yuvaan reached for an old folder lying under a heap of files. Its label was worn and barely legible. “Operation Sagam.”
His first mission.
The one nobody ever talked about.
The one even the system had tried to erase.

Scene Shift – Abandoned Garage
86Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIUzJkVhBmc
The same garage where he’d first met Vikrant.
86Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8SoEzDV6Av
But this time, it wasn’t Vikrant waiting inside. A new face emerged from the shadows — lean, intense, fingers stained with solder burns and ink.
86Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZJDyAUeskA
“Kabeer.”
86Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdIJPWmSirc
Vikrant’s former hacker-in-arms. Now a freelance ghost for RAW.
86Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf2EmeegX1v
"This place doesn't just hide memories, bhai…" Kabeer said, handing Yuvaan a small encrypted chip, “…it hides truths too.”
86Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQZPxUiYNkm
“This contains what RAW never wanted you to know — Kiara’s real identity. And the proof of Vaidya’s black ops.”
86Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtQGsGMDMWk
Yuvaan didn’t speak. He just took the chip and left.
No rage. No tears.
Only purpose.

Scene Cut – Mr. Vaidya’s Hidden Office
86Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjY5hWdpNnD
A room drenched in stillness. Vaidya stood in front of a mirror, adjusting his tie.
No guilt in his eyes. Only foresight.
86Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeBfPP5ykcb
“Yuvaan must’ve started to see through it all… but he doesn't know everything. If he activates that chip… it won't just expose Kiara. It’ll bring the entire system to its knees.”
86Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu8fiRbE2Or
He reached into a drawer, pulling out a sleek, glowing shard — a backup memory key.
86Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF1bG5uUGjy
Just in case.

Back to Yuvaan
86Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdsQpFnmWpM
He slid the chip into his secure decoder.
The screen blinked.
A virtual room materialized — data swirling around him. Classified documents. RAW operative names.
And above all… one phrase:
86Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC6mTSZozQ9
“PROJECT PHOENIX”
86Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxADSTMl13a
“What the hell is this…” Yuvaan muttered, eyes widening.
86Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdeYKMwRr9Z
A new name flashed.
86Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuwwe2Q2tNA
Kiara Fernandes – Subject #9, Project Phoenix.
86Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnCX4Ufz94j
The shock hit like a fist to the chest.
86Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN0pNXUQJZV
“Kiara… was an experiment?”
86Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0YMvpufD6B
He staggered back.
“Then… everything? Her love… her memories… was it all a lie?”
86Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbfdbS06jBO
The screen shifted. A voice message played.
86Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE5wpVlunE9
Kiara’s voice.
86Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ35AnhDKtGa
"Yuvaan… if you’re hearing this, I’ve failed. But know this—I didn’t lie to you. I protected you. They created me… but you? You made me human."
86Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEXI35qhZDt
His eyes burned.
Not with anger. With pain.
86Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk758qdbJYu
He shut the chip down slowly, whispering into the silence:
86Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9c1uQmdGhz
"
86Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzYsP2ARfsL
Kiara… I will find you."
86Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8lDSqAfbDI
And for the first time in days, a single tear fell.
