Chapter 2:The ones who remember
📖 Omega Reawakens
Liam King didn't sleep much anymore.
Sleep brought her voice. Not the warm version — not the girl who once laughed under a sky full of stars. No, this voice came with blood. With fire. With words she never said aloud, but he always heard anyway.
You left me burning.
He clenched his jaw, dragging a hand through his damp hair as the rain battered the rooftop above him.
The file was on the table again. He hadn't opened it in weeks, but it always returned — like something was watching him through it.
> SUBJECT #3: ARIA ROTHSCHILD
STATUS: DECEASED (UNCONFIRMED)

She wasn't dead. He never believed it. And if the rumors were right… someone else didn't believe it either.

The knock came at 3:17 AM.
No one good ever knocked at that hour.
He opened the door to a man in black — face half-covered, rain dripping from the brim of his hat. No name, no greeting. Just a silver flash drive held between two gloved fingers.
They're waking her up,the man said.
She doesn't remember what she's capable of.
Liam's breath caught.
You were supposed to protect her
And then the man turned and disappeared into the dark.

✨ Meanwhile…
Aria sat in the library, fingers tracing the spine of a poetry book she didn't read.
Her phone vibrated once.
No caller ID. No message.
Just a notification she didn't understand:
DO YOU REMEMBER WHO YOU ARE?
She stared at it.
And somewhere in the back of her mind, something whispered…
Omega_03: Heartbeat syncing…

Liam stared at the silver flash drive on his desk.
He hadn't touched it.
But the screen on his laptop lit up without him doing anything.
ACCESS GRANTED.
OMEGA PROTOCOL – REACTIVATED.
And in the corner of the screen…
Her face appeared.
Smiling.
