Episode 3: When Deception Becomes Truth
167Please respect copyright.PENANAk1NovxVrgW
Scene opens in a dimly lit interrogation chamber.
The walls, bare and concrete. A slow ceiling fan creaks above. Shadows stretch long in the stale yellow light.
167Please respect copyright.PENANA0MElu3yhBC
Across a metallic table, Mr. Vaidya sits—composed, but his eyes seem hollow, haunted.
167Please respect copyright.PENANAeJTA88uKOL
Yuvaan stands motionless before him. Silent. Still. Gaze sharp as a blade, locked onto the man who once defined his fate.
167Please respect copyright.PENANANc11v04l53
Mr. Vaidya clears his throat, voice low and deliberate.
“So... you came back. I thought that fire had burned your memories along with everything else.”
167Please respect copyright.PENANAXVGOhndoa0
Yuvaan’s reply slices through the air—controlled, but charged.
“Memories don’t burn, Vaidya. They just... change. They become nightmares.”
167Please respect copyright.PENANATZW6tbGQhF
A bitter smile crawls onto Mr. Vaidya’s lips.
“You were my most brilliant asset, Yuvaan. RAW would’ve wasted a mind like yours. I saved you.”
167Please respect copyright.PENANAEwYlR1ZACy
Yuvaan takes a slow breath, like containing a storm.
“You didn’t save me. You sold me. In exchange for Kiara.”
167Please respect copyright.PENANACDEPySJnFk
Silence.
167Please respect copyright.PENANAdBPqns6NpX
The smirk fades from Vaidya’s face. His jaw clenches.
167Please respect copyright.PENANABroWC7Rx2e
Flashback Begins:
167Please respect copyright.PENANACd5Jsdj2im
Delhi, 2016.
Yuvaan was the golden boy of RAW—an analyst with a mind like a map of chaos, finding patterns in madness.
That’s when she came in—Kiara Fernandes. Rescued from a shadowy asylum during an op gone wrong. A psychiatric patient? No. A cipher. A mystery.
167Please respect copyright.PENANA3V85EpPWgf
She spoke in codes, hallucinations woven with logic. Everyone dismissed her. Except Yuvaan.
167Please respect copyright.PENANAWDu7RyUvXw
Narration (Yuvaan’s voice):
“She wasn’t just a patient. She was a puzzle. And you... you wanted to make her a weapon.”
167Please respect copyright.PENANAwXK3YQxb1E
Back to present.
167Please respect copyright.PENANA6rcQX75wKS
Mr. Vaidya wipes his brow, sweat trickling down his temple.
“Kiara was unstable. You got emotional. There’s no place for emotions in RAW.”
167Please respect copyright.PENANAisXU0VOA1l
Yuvaan slams his fist on the table—metal echoes in the silence.
“And there is place for betrayal? You sent me to extract her. But you leaked the location. You sent me to die.”
167Please respect copyright.PENANAHr4ka3sg29
Vaidya turns away. His voice cracks.
“She was my daughter, Yuvaan... Kiara was my own daughter.”
167Please respect copyright.PENANAg2LwaeXzZZ
Yuvaan goes still. Like time just cracked open.
167Please respect copyright.PENANA6o79qn5IQ7
“You never told me... why?”
167Please respect copyright.PENANAybGncocEJ3
“Because there was something between you two. I didn’t want her falling deeper into that world. You were both... broken. Rule-breakers. I just... wanted her out.”
167Please respect copyright.PENANAaiuLdMzYp0
Yuvaan collapses into the chair, face buried in his hands. Breathing ragged. The weight of a thousand truths crashing onto his shoulders.
167Please respect copyright.PENANATchsqc9ok0
Flashback ends.
167Please respect copyright.PENANANpioqVbLLp
His voice drops to a whisper.
“So that day... in the asylum... you erased her. Her existence. Her records. Her past... all of it.”
167Please respect copyright.PENANAqIry3cIzsY
Mr. Vaidya leans forward, opening a metallic briefcase. Inside—an old holo-recorder. He presses play.
167Please respect copyright.PENANA19myYDfPSp
Kiara’s voice echoes from the device—delicate, trembling, yet defiant:
“If you’re hearing this, Yuvaan... I’ve vanished. But the truth is—I wasn’t running from the world. I was running from my father. I wanted to stay with you... but I was weak. Vaidya wasn’t just my father... he was my jailer.”
167Please respect copyright.PENANAjF3wugrhg2
Tears sting Yuvaan’s eyes.
167Please respect copyright.PENANAtL50OFMHte
Mr. Vaidya murmurs, almost to himself:
“I lost... as a father, and as an officer. You’re closer to the truth, Yuvaan. But it’s not over yet.”
167Please respect copyright.PENANAoYHXCZut9e
Yuvaan wipes his tears with trembling fingers.
“Then I’ll find it. Every layer of it.”
167Please respect copyright.PENANA3ASzrL5SpU
Vaidya exhales, defeated.
“Your job isn’t done. The CBI wants you. Your name’s been erased from RAW files—but your mind... they still need that.”
167Please respect copyright.PENANAWTuKzqbO1e
Yuvaan’s eyes narrow like drawn blades.
“I don’t work for anyone. I work towards the truth.”
167Please respect copyright.PENANA0Q1LKSb2KL
Vaidya places a folder on the table.
“Sagam Case. Private asylum in Delhi. Same place Kiara was first rescued. Same place you were sent. Same place... you were meant to die.”
167Please respect copyright.PENANACfYAurECtZ
Yuvaan opens the folder. A photograph slips out. A butterfly tattoo.
167Please respect copyright.PENANASYrDqGW4uq
His breath hitches.
“Kiara... or her shadow. It leads back there.”
167Please respect copyright.PENANAhox2YDTpr7
Suddenly, a muffled explosion in the distance.
167Please respect copyright.PENANAqwOgpZLFNc
Yuvaan bolts out of the facility.
167Please respect copyright.PENANAkCE5MzhnTN
Dark smoke. Sirens. Screams.
167Please respect copyright.PENANAT0kQi2j3MO
In the chaos, a figure dashes through the shadows.
167Please respect copyright.PENANAREGfXNmtYX
Yuvaan shouts,
“Stop! Who are you?!”
167Please respect copyright.PENANAxxsRiaOGuf
A voice echoes from the smoke—distorted, untraceable.
“A piece of what you’re looking for... is with me, Yuvaan. Tomorrow. 11 PM. Old underpass. Dharavi.”
167Please respect copyright.PENANAlGCZdu5Imm
Yuvaan stares into the dark.
167Please respect copyright.PENANAlI98HQhNCo
A storm begins to rise.
