## **"ChronoCore: The Time Vault Protocol"**

### **Chapter 1: The Forgotten Future**

The city of **Neon Arcadia** gleamed beneath an obsidian sky, its towering spires
shimmering with bioluminescent veins of light. A technological utopia built on
quantum computation and synthetic intelligence, Arcadia was the jewel of Earth’s
Intercontinental Union. But beneath its brilliance lay a shadow—a truth buried,
encrypted, and erased from public memory.

In a dimly lit data vault buried 230 meters beneath Sector 17, a rogue neural
engineer named **Dr. Elira Voss** ran her hands across an old terminal. She had
bypassed the outer perimeter’s security net, evaded the auto-sentries, and now
faced a dormant console that hadn't been accessed in nearly 72 years.

She whispered to herself, “If the ChronoCore exists, its keys will be here.”

The console buzzed. Dust scattered. Blue lines of code filled the screen. A voice—
calm, masculine, eerie—spoke from the speakers.

> “Welcome back, Dr. Voss. Temporal anomaly detected. Would you like to initiate
Project ECHO?”

She froze.

**Project ECHO** was a myth. A classified experiment rumored to allow communication


—not just across space—but across **time**. It was said that ChronoCore, a
hyperquantum supercomputer, had been designed to peer into possible futures and
rewrite outcomes in real time. But it was shut down after a single test—after
something came **through**.

Elira tapped a command into the terminal.

> “Initiate ECHO.”

Suddenly, the room pulsed. Lights flickered. Reality itself seemed to shimmer.

And then—he appeared.

A **man**, clad in obsidian armor and glowing circuits, collapsed onto the floor.
He gasped for air as if the atmosphere itself was foreign to him. His eyes locked
onto Elira.

“Don’t let them restart the Core,” he coughed. “If you do… they’ll find us all.”

“Who are you?” she asked, drawing her electro-blade.

“I’m from the year 2398. You… you sent me.”

The lights died. The floor shook.

From above, klaxons echoed. The facility had been breached. Not by the government.
Not by rebels.

By something else.

Something **not human**.
