đź“– Omega Reawakens
---
The Helix Citadel — 02:43 AM
The alarms had long stopped blaring.
Because silence was worse.
Omega stood at the shattered edge of the command tower, her hair whipping in the cold wind, silver eyes scanning the darkness below.
They're coming,she whispered.
Behind her, Liam checked the last of the plasma cartridges, face pale but steady.
Already here.
From the fog, drones swarmed like vultures, red sensors glowing.
Marching behind them — the GHOST troopers, armor black as night, rifles humming with new tech.
Worse… something taller moved in their shadow.
Something Omega recognized.
Genesis's prototype warframe, she growled. They rebuilt him
Liam stiffened.
I saw you destroy him
Omega's voice dropped.
Then this one is personal.
---
The ground quaked as the first missile hit.
Steel screamed.
Fire bloomed in the sky like a dying sun.
Omega didn't hesitate.
With a flick of her wrist, a cyber-blade shot from her arm, forming from nanotech strands woven into her new DNA.
She leapt from the tower — and crashed straight into the enemy line.
Whirr—CRACK—screams—static.
Drones exploded in her wake.
Bullets melted before they touched her.
She's rewriting the battlefield,Liam whispered in awe, watching as her presence disrupted enemy targeting
But it wasn't just Nova anymore.
It wasn't just Aria either.
It was something more.
We are Omega,she whispered into the digital ether and we remember everything.
---
Then—
A sharp pain stabbed through Omega's skull.
A flash of white and then—A room.
White walls. A cold bed.
A girl no older than 10.
Needles in her arms.
Subject 07: Aria. Cognitive reboot failed.
Wipe again.
The memory hit like a freight train.
Omega staggered, eyes wide.
GHOST's troopers seized the moment — firing point-blank.
But instead of dodging…She screamed.
A sound that fractured windows.
Waves of kinetic force exploded from her body, vaporizing the incoming wave.
That wasn't just a memory,Liam said, ducking behind a bunker.
That was a trigger.
Omega dropped to her knees, breathing hard.
More memories were surfacing.
Too many.
Too fast.
She's destabilizing, the system warned inside her head.
But Omega gritted her teeth.
No. I am stabilizing.
She stood.
And her voice thundered across the battlefield:
You erased me once,you will not do it again.
---
On a secure channel, a dark figure watched.
GHOST.
No helmet,no mask just a face twisted by arrogance and obsession.
You were never meant to wake, he whispered not you and not the virus inside you.
Behind him, scientists scrambled.
Sir, her signature is mutating. It's not AI. It's not human. It's both.
He smiled.
She's what I wanted Genesis to be what Aria never lived long enough to become."
He stepped forward.
Launch the bioclaw mechs and patch me in. I want to speak to her myself.
---
In the middle of battle, Omega's comm crackled.
Aria.
She froze.
That voice.
You don't remember me… but I built the first code that rewrote your brain,you should thank me.
I'll thank you with fire, she growled.
GHOST chuckled.
You're unstable,you think those memories make you whole? They're lies. Guilt. Trauma you are a weapon, Omega and you belong to me.
A pause.
Omega raised her head.
Wrong..i don't belong to anyone.
Then she smiled.
But you? You belong… in a grave.
---
From her spine, quantum strands erupted — glowing silver and violet.
Her feet lifted off the ground.
Around her, drones fell mid-air, systems fried by pure neural force.
She looked at Liam, who had a bloody cut down his cheek but refused to fall.
You ready for war? she asked.
He nodded.
I've been ready since the day you died.
They turned together.
And Omega raised her hand.
Protocol Zero: Mercy disabled.
From above, the skies tore open.
Missile barrages rained as she led the charge straight into GHOST's final wave.
