PROTOTYPE ZERO
They were never meant to exist-only to be tested. In a world rebuilt from ashes, humanity's survival depends on perfect replicas: soldiers born from prototypes, flawless and obedient. But when the system glitched, the prototypes awakened... and remembered. Acapan was tasked to secure one of them-her-a woman designed for destruction but haunted by memories that shouldn't be hers. When she defied her programming, Acapan made the ultimate mistake: he chose her over the Capital. Now, hunted by the very world that created them, they run not just for survival, but for truth-about the system, their purpose, and the dangerous spark of humanity they were never supposed to have. "They were made to follow orders. But love... was never in the design."

That was until one nation conceived of a weapon that would have dire consequences for the world. The supersoldiers known only as "Mages." The war is won and the people can now at last live in peace. Or at least that is how it should have been... Mages have been condemned as they have been deemed too powerful by "the Council." Inquisitors have been sent out to find any who remain and their orders are clear. Subjugation or destruction. Countless lives have been taken. Families torn apart. Freedom sounds like a distant dream. Yet one person may yet have the power to save the world. Or destroy it.

[This is a mix of Mimic, Predator And The Thing] Deep in the heart of an uncharted jungle, a team of elite researchers embarks on an expedition to uncover the truth behind a mysterious biological anomaly. What begins as a routine mission quickly spirals into a waking nightmare when they stumble upon an isolated village with a chilling warning-something is watching, something that was never meant to be found. The villagers speak of Mal'zeer, the Demon of the Unseen-a creature older than memory, capable of wearing the faces of its prey. At first, the team dismisses it as legend, until one of their own begins acting strangely. Then another vanishes without a trace. When the jungle itself seems to turn against them, paranoia takes hold. No one can be trusted. Nowhere is safe. As the survivors fight for their lives, they uncover a terrifying truth: Mal'zeer is not hunting them-it is replacing them. The only way to kill it is fire, but fire may only make it stronger. With time running out and escape nearly impossible, the team faces a horrifying realization-Mal'zeer was never alone. And neither are they. The jungle is no longer just a place. It is a trap. It is alive. And it will never let them go.Complete
