Before they were sirens, they were survivors—Gladers who had escaped the labyrinthine horrors of WCKD only to face a new kind of captivity. The promise of a safe haven had been a cruel illusion, shattered by the ruthless pursuit of those who sought to control them.
Alby, Teresa, Newt, Aris, and Winston had been captured in the dead of night, their hopes dashed as they were whisked away to a secret facility hidden beneath the ocean's depths. WCKD's scientists, driven by their relentless pursuit of a cure, saw in them the potential for experimentation.
Bound and helpless, they were subjected to torturous trials that pushed the boundaries of morality and humanity. The waters that surrounded them whispered secrets of ancient powers—of sirens who roamed the depths with voices that could lure sailors to their doom.
Dr. Paige, WCKD's formidable leader, saw an opportunity in their suffering. With ruthless precision, she infused their DNA with that of the mythical sirens, twisting their bodies and minds to serve her insatiable quest for control. The transformation was agonizing, their screams lost in the cold embrace of the ocean's depths.
Newt, Aris, and the others emerged from the ordeal forever changed. They had become sirens—beings of beauty and danger, their voices now carrying the echoes of a past they could not forget. The guilt of what they had become weighed heavily upon them, a haunting reminder of the sacrifices made in the name of survival.
As they swam through the murky waters of their captivity, a bond formed among them—a shared understanding of loss, betrayal, and resilience. They vowed to escape their watery prison, to reclaim their identities and seek redemption for the sins forced upon them but before they could WCKD made a deal with them if they Swore kill the ones that managed to Escape they would let them go.
And so they agreed not wanting the Torture to continue and with that their journey began—a journey that would lead them to the shores of a newfound sanctuary, where they would face old wounds and forge new alliances in a world shaped by the echoes of their past.
