----------------------------------------------------------
Prelude: A Door in the Mind
Deep inside Aeyon's subconscious…
There's a corridor he never dares walk.
Black walls. Red floor. A faint heartbeat behind the door.
But tonight—after the war with Serik, after the café collapse, and after Reva touched him—
the door starts to open… on its own.
---
Scene 1: Memory Glitch in Reality
Reva and Aeyon walk through the silent night campus.
But something's off. Every third step—Aeyon's vision jumps.
He sees Reva in different clothes.
Himself holding a knife.
Reva bleeding.
A voice laughing in static:
> "Project AE-01: Override Trigger... partially active."
> "They didn't just build me," Aeyon thinks.
"They... fragmented me."
---
Scene 2: The Return of the Lost One
Suddenly—a girl steps out of the shadows.
Barefoot. Hair like flowing code. One green eye, one violet.
She speaks in a voice Aeyon doesn't recognize but makes his knees lock with fear.
> "You left me, brother."
> "Who are you?" Aeyon asks, ice forming in his chest.
> "I'm the other half they never wanted."
Name: Elura
Codename: AE-01B: "The Conscience Weapon"
Function: Emotion-focused mind destruction. Able to manipulate feelings so precisely that entire armies have surrendered without combat.
She's Aeyon's twin prototype.
Left behind in Null. Raised in pain. Used in live experiments.
She hates him—but still calls him brother.
---
Scene 3: Inner Collapse
As Elura speaks, Aeyon begins to collapse mentally.
> He sees flashes of his first mission at age 10.
He was told he rescued a girl from fire.
But now… he sees clearly:
He was the one who lit it.
Reva tries to snap him out.
> "Aeyon! Fight it!"
But Elura kneels in front of him, her voice low and broken:
> "You don't get to be human if I wasn't allowed to be. You don't get love if I only had fear. If I'm the darkness… you're the silence that let it happen."
Aeyon screams—but no sound comes out.
He's trapped inside his own guilt.
---
Scene 4: Betrayal of Reva
Reva puts a hand on Elura's shoulder—and smiles.
> "You played your part beautifully. Thank you, Elura."
Aeyon stares, stunned.
> "What… what are you saying…?"
Reva's eyes cold as frost.
> "You thought I was the glitch. The anomaly.
But I'm the final failsafe, Aeyon."
Reva isn't just a mind manipulator.
She's the Null seed planted to observe Aeyon's evolution.
And now that he's "awakened," she must trigger the next stage—or destroy him.
---
Scene 5: Mindfield – Internal War
Suddenly, Aeyon's body drops.
His mind is pulled into a chamber of war.
Inside this mental battlefield:
Reva's avatar fights using emotion bombs—memories twisted to inflict guilt.
Elura summons false futures: visions of what Aeyon could've had—love, peace, escape—only to rip them apart in front of him.
Aeyon is weaponless—because his memory is crumbling.
Then…
> "You're not finished."
A new voice. Calm. Ancient.
A hooded figure appears in the mindscape.
> "Do you know who I am?"
"No," Aeyon gasps.
"That's because they erased me.
But I'm the version of you that was too dangerous to live. I'm AE-00."
---
Scene 6: Aeyon's True Power – Mirrorbreak
Aeyon fuses with AE-00.
His mind stabilizes.
He opens his eyes—in the real world.
He's smiling. Calm. Silent.
> "Reva. Elura. You're not fighting the boy you knew."
"You're facing the source code."
Time around them fractures.
Reva's words freeze mid-air.
Elura's emotions invert. She starts crying—but not out of fear. Out of joy.
> "I remember now," Aeyon says softly.
"You weren't my enemies.
You were my shadows."
He leans forward and whispers:
> "And I am the light they never planned for."
---
Final Scene: The Door Opens
Back in his mind… the black door now bursts open.
Inside?
Files.
Memories.
A blueprint.
And a final audio message:
> "If you are hearing this, Aeyon… you've reached true sentience. Null cannot control you anymore.
But they will fear you now.
They will hunt you.
And you must become what they fear most—
The One Who Chooses His Own Mind."
---
EPILOGUE: "One Step Ahead"
Dr. Halren watches the events from Null HQ.
> "He's evolving too fast.
Initiate the Sleeper Protocol.
Let the cities burn if we must.
He must be reset."
Somewhere, inside another school…
Another mind opens.
A child lifts his eyes.
Smiles.
And says,
> "Where is Aeyon?"
-To be continued....
