Nighttime. Mumbai. Somewhere within the cold, bureaucratic walls of the CBI Headquarters…
152Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkVcMEvEWrl
A dim cubicle glowed under the pale light of a dying ceiling lamp. Amidst scattered case files, broken pens, and empty coffee cups, sat Yuvaan—unmoving, sleepless, haunted. His eyes weren’t red from exhaustion; they were burning with something deeper… obsession.
152Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEVYciYopm2
On his desk lay a half-burnt file—its cover nearly illegible, but the faded title struck like lightning:
152Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0xgZFtcFQY
“PROJECT TRIDENT – Level 9: RESTRICTED.”
152Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXqcKZ5h08s
The file wasn’t meant to be there. A rookie officer had accidentally dropped it on his desk, not knowing it belonged in the archive vault. But fate had other plans.
152Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTFKpvrsbN0
As Yuvaan’s fingers grazed the charred cover, a sudden chill ran down his spine.
152Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6Cv8HVF9cx
“Trident… where have I heard that before?”
152Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkv8mfxwgyI
He opened the file.
First Page:
Operative: Vaidya
Status: Transferred from RAW – Declassified.
152Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT34J60KP6r
Yuvaan’s breath hitched.

FLASHBACK – 7 Years Ago, RAW Training Facility – Somewhere in the snowy silence of Himachal
152Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9jUWkClMQX
An elite camp hidden under snow. Inside a tent, warmth flickered from a projector as Mr. Vaidya, clad in a black coat, addressed a group of cadets.

> "Memory is a weapon," he said coldly. "And wielding it? That takes something… inhuman. There was only one boy who could retain 300 unlinked symbols without error."

All eyes turned toward a younger, sharper Yuvaan.

Back to Present
152Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkBIUCV9go0
The memory sliced through him.
152Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKruAcvFc2H
“They lied to me… Vaidya wasn’t just a psychiatrist. He was RAW’s top-level memory architect. But why hide it from me?”
152Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqv6498O3H4
His eyes scanned the next page. A blurred photograph… the silhouette of a woman.
152Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfrTgCsmgZk
Caption:
Subject: Kiara Fernandes
Phase 2 Test: FAILED
Status: MISSING
152Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzr8bI6V6Lr
The file slipped from his trembling hands.
152Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwJe7d2SghH
“Kiara… she was a test subject?”
152Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIFPNzs27pO
The girl he was hunting… was part of Trident?

CBI Cafeteria – 2:30 AM
152Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaTXoPZPKuX
He sat alone with a bitter cup of coffee. Nearby, two senior officers murmured in hushed tones.
152Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9YPrkJOPhC
> “That new guy opened the TRIDENT file?”
152Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdMUYFXqa95
“The one Dr. Vaidya had sealed himself?”

152Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjMzG7drrWb
152Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj9d10QZK99
Yuvaan’s ears caught every word. But before he could process it, one name echoed inside his head like a thunderclap—
152Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWPaoqtTI0A
“Vikrant.”
152Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7FeVDYKT5y
He stood up, left the cup untouched, and vanished into the misty streets of Mumbai.

Cut To: A Forgotten Alley in Ghatkopar
152Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1M0EAG2dTr
A black cab screeched to a halt in front of a decrepit basement. Flickering tube lights. Cigarette smoke coiling through the stale air. Old monitors buzzing with static. The past lived here… unwanted, unspoken.
152Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj6eJaqfobS
Inside, a man sat with his back turned.
152Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfVCZ0NCSRN
> “Still alive, are you?”
152Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHrvo5PXnaW
152Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYeI9s3e1VK
152Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzdVTEBDAJ5
He turned.
152Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJdUtsHg3rI
Vikrant.
152Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFJauthpc0a
There was fear in his eyes. But respect too.
152Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoN7ZEoyOFl
> “Yuvaan bhai… they said you were dead.”
152Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc8uPiXFCMt
152Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2HMZrU3mSC
152Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ92BilFUZoW
Yuvaan walked up, placed his palm firmly on the table.
152Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm7idYdyr8l
> “I’m looking for a girl. I don’t know her name. Only a butterfly tattoo on her wrist.”
152Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOFtcntoKgI
152Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡudGrpP879p
152Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdeTNJXvgSO
Vikrant didn’t ask questions. He typed.
152Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvKeQ7YfK1H
The screen flickered, then stopped.
152Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWKwXhqDwkR
Name: Kiara Fernandes
Status: MISSING since 2017.
152Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrF6mQYYUe0
Yuvaan’s expression froze.
152Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxyTjIGM5Yw
> “She wasn’t just made to disappear, Vikrant… someone erased her existence. Like she was never real to begin with.”

Teaser End Scene
152Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpwkfHthClS
Back at the CBI.
152Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfnJOI1diqZ
Late night. Everyone gone.
Yuvaan flips through another file. Suddenly, a holographic projector sparks to life.
152Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqb75y43UJe
Mr. Vaidya’s digital visage appears.
152Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdOjGq6eFjR
> “If you're seeing this, Yuvaan… it means you're either hiding… or you’re too close to the truth to survive much longer.
152Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡszlPenFp8m
In TRIDENT, we don’t just play with minds…
We sacrifice memories.”
Yuvaan doesn’t flinch.
152Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnfdVLgBIgT
Then I’ll remember for them all.”
152Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU1J7hiSEvE
FADE OUT.
The bloodstains are old. But the wings still carry their story.
