Six college students at University of Malaya went to the most unforgettable trip in their last semester before they graduated.  Except for an introvert like Putera, who was forced to participate in the trip, the fluttering sense of beginning on a journey never gets old for these young adults.

Out of their expectation, the normal train journey suddenly turn into a nightmare as one member from the group mysteriously vanished into the thin air from the train overnight. This bizarre case sent the shockwave into the whole country. Is it merely an unfortunate incident, or maybe were a well-planned crime or perhaps there is something sinister encroaching somewhere in this mystery.
