I woke up with nothing. No name. No past. No memories. Just a body full of scars and a single, burning instinct: finish the mission I don’t remember starting. The world outside is a wasteland. A place called The Zone, where radiation still clings to the air and the people are ruled by something called The Authority. I’m told I’m dangerous. I’m treated like a threat. But no one will tell me why. Not even him.

Captain Lance Kang. Cold. Controlled. Feared. He watches me with restrained violence and impossible familiarity—like he knows something about me I don’t. I shouldn’t trust him. He’s the enemy. He belongs to the regime that wants me wiped out, forgotten. But when his voice cuts through the static in my mind… something responds. Something buried, instinctive, and dangerously real.

The more fragments of my past I claw back—labs, fire, blood—the clearer a single truth becomes: I’m not just a prisoner in this broken world. I’m the key to changing it. Or ending it. I just have to remember before it’s too late.
