Elliot stood in the center of the room, his steps weighted like iron but his eyes… those eyes stared at Jayden as if he had been waiting for this moment all along.
The subtle hiss of oxygen being pumped through vents above filled the silence, making the fear in the room louder than any scream could ever be.

“Brother,” Elliot said, his voice deep and cracked with age, pain… and something else vengeance.
187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4ilOWWbcGH
Jayden couldn’t speak. His mouth opened, but no words came out. He didn’t see a prisoner. He saw a ghost one he thought he’d buried.
187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGr45gdotst
“But... you died. I saw the files. We buried”
187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjWS1qWvUWr
“We buried a body that wasn’t mine,” Elliot cut in, his voice sharp as broken glass. “I vanished in a plan you helped design, alongside The Eye. You agreed to erase your memory, Jayden, so you wouldn’t have to carry the guilt of what we did.”
187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJo0Q3lEzLM
Ezra remained silent, eyes scanning Elliot’s every breath and gesture. Something larger than a torture program was unfolding.
187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡup28lKPaJw
From the corner, Rhea whispered, “The Eye… is that the group behind all this?”
187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3ESpAXFtjG
Elliot smiled bitterly. “The Eye no longer exists. It was dismantled five years ago. But its inheritors gave birth to something worse The Silence Protocol. And Jayden… Jayden was one of the architects.”
187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn2dZYTKkYa
Jayden staggered backward. His chest rose and fell, erratic. “I don’t remember… I don’t even remember why we would create something like this.”
187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfXKbkzAYoW
Elliot’s face darkened. “Because we feared truth. We built this to bury it with silence. You made them forget. I made them disappear.”
187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoVPuEiOaUL
A heavy hush blanketed the room.
187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtg1imxAOSM
Then, the Host’s voice returned — broken, glitched, almost as if the system itself was cracking:
187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYrMS4k9UMO
“Confession received. Stage Two: Collide and Divide.
All subjects must choose: memory… or freedom.”
187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw3dq6RxngV
187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL1eWwuX5bs
The walls hissed open, and five new doors revealed themselves. Each bore a different symbol:
187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0eg5qC1Qg4
1. 🗡️ A knife — The Room of Sacrifice
187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5JAVRJPZNz
2. 🪞 A mirror — The Room of True Reflection
187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeyC35ETAvh
3. ⏰ A clock — The Room of Time Revisited
187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡESiAQcZx51
4. ⚖️ A scale — The Room of Judgment
187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMInE7BordP
5. 🕶️ A blindfold — The Room of Truth Unseen
187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcK9NwYyacG
187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt8i09DwRns
Elliot turned to Jayden. “This is your design. Each path reflects your fear… your sin… your silence.”
187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeU8fia2BCk
Ezra stepped toward the door with the clock. His eyes burned with a strange hope. “If this lets us go back even through memory maybe we can fix it.”
187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ351zf9s27L
Lena interjected softly. “You don’t change the past. You survive it.”
187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmxwX3UmjGW
Jayden bit back the tears. His entire being trembled beneath the weight of his own forgotten sins.
187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb19ZJafmzR
“We buried the truth with technology,” he whispered.
“But the pain… never died.”
187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEEYEBBxcgj
187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGYE8xqhBMK
One by one, they made their choices: – Ezra walked through the clock — chasing redemption.
– Lena stepped toward the scale — ready to face her judgment.
– Rhea chose the mirror — confronting the face she’d long avoided.
– Elliot disappeared behind the blindfold — perhaps to spare himself… or them.
187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvrx9Icn9qO
Jayden stood alone.
187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ88o5jxhfQk
Only the knife remained.
187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBwlA54IbJ3
He reached for the handle and glanced up toward the surveillance camera.
187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl6NFYbY0jC
“Tell me one last thing before I go in,” he said.
187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPz6P2uE7JF
The Host answered one final time:
187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYmWWeLuRXp
“Do you still believe you were the hero...
or were you simply the loudest voice in a room full of silence?”
187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg30xray9Hj
187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5mlMbetCRH
Jayden said nothing.
187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM2F77KpNPj
He stepped inside.
187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBwh6KotQJU
The door sealed behind him. Darkness fell.
187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0K5bTe6Qgp
And the true reckoning began.
