CHAPTER 3: THE MIRROR MISTAKE

 CHAPTER 3: THE MIRROR MISTAKE

Neon City, 4045 AD


Neon City shimmered like a beacon of hope under the night sky. Hovercars floated in synchronized streams, and light holograms blinked with news of a rare event—AN Supremo, Vishwa Raksh, was visiting in person for a peace summit.


Inside the AEGIS headquarters, elite SAPF and SAPG units moved like clockwork, double-checking security protocols. Major Sharp, stoic as ever, overlooked the city's surveillance grid.


But far from their watchful eyes, danger had already crept in.


In the underworld's shadows, Commander Black Viper smiled coldly. His voice echoed inside a hidden chamber deep within the ruins outside Omega City's borders.


> “Send him. The assassin with no face. The shapeshifter—Mimicorn.”




Aboard a cargo hovercraft, Mimicorn slithered into Neon City disguised as a delivery worker. Within hours, he'd replaced two AEGIS guards. Then a janitor. Then a weapons technician.


And finally, the most dangerous mimic—Sardar Tony Singh.

AEGIS Cafeteria – 3:45 PM


"Good lunch today, Singh?" asked a fellow technician.


The mechanical man nodded. “As usual. Fuel for the fire,” he said, flexing his muscular right arm.


Only… the real Tony Singh’s mechanical arm was on the left.


Watching from across the hall, Major Sharp narrowed his eyes. He’d served with Tony in dozens of ops. Something felt… off.


The grip, the walk, even the eyes—it was all Tony. But the arm was reversed.


He whispered into his comms. “Possible imposter. Level 2 containment ready. He copied a mirror image. Repeat: wrong arm.”

AEGIS Hallway – 3:48 PM


Mimicorn, sensing the tension, began to retreat—but Phantom Blade blocked his path. Dogesh’s dogs growled from behind a corner. In a flash, Mimicorn lunged forward, morphing midair. His form flickered through multiple faces—but Sharp moved faster.


He fired a non-lethal EMP burst, stunning Mimicorn mid-morph.


“Got you, copycat,” Sharp said.

IOX Prison – That Night


Behind a transparent high-voltage field, Mimicorn hissed.


“You noticed… a mirror mistake?”


Major Sharp smirked. “You copied the man. Not the warrior.”


Back in Neon City, the AN Supremo’s summit concluded peacefully. But somewhere in a hidden corner of the city, Black Viper clenched his fists, whispering…

The Curse of Tundraal – Why Only 13 Can Enter

  Professor Chote Ram steps forward in the strategy room with ancient scrolls and holograms. > “This land is older than war,” he begins. “Tundraal is built on a pre-civilization tomb, once sealed by warrior-priests. Long ago, it was said a darkness was locked inside—a horde cursed to rise if disturbed. That’s what happened when the bunker teams went digging.” He places a cracked metallic relic on the table. > “The moment we sent more than 13 soldiers... they vanished. Not killed. Not captured. Gone. Erased from time—forgotten even by their families. Only the number thirteen is tolerated by this cursed land.” Chronospeter’s research logs confirm this: Any unit larger than 13 suffers from temporal displacement. Tech malfunctions. Memories reset. No signal escapes. The region becomes a loop of death. Commander Kanine adds: > “AEGIS sent drones. They exploded. Sent squads. They vanished. Sent 12... no response. Sent 14... full reset. But 13… they fought. Some survived. That’s ...
