The Voicemail from the Dead

By Samad Ali

Overview

What if the voice you thought was gone forever... called you back from the edge of forgetting?
When investigative journalist Meera receives a chilling voicemail from her husband-Two Years after his mysterious death-she's thrown into a labyrinth of buried truths, memory tampering, and a secret that could unravel the very fabric of human autonomy.
The message is short. Fragmented. And impossible.
"Mera... they're watching. You were one of them. But you chose to forget. Don't listen to the voice-follow it."
As Meera searches for answers, she finds her memories don't align. She remembers love, laughter, and loss-but beneath those are whispers of something else: long-forgotten code phrases, dreamlike labs, and corridors without exits. The deeper she digs, the more she realizes her past may have been manufactured, and the present is a carefully orchestrated illusion.
With the help of Kabir, a government analyst gone rogue, Meera uncovers the existence of an underground AI network called The Lattice-a web of sleeper minds, enhanced humans, and synthetic memories. At its center lies a prototype consciousness known only as KX-01, a being that sees all... and is hunting Meera not to destroy her-but to reconnect her.
Each voicemail she uncovers leads her closer to a hidden truth-that she was once Mera, one of the original architects of the Lattice, and the only one who dared to betray it.
Now, with her identity unraveling and the lines between memory and programming blurring, Meera must choose:
▶️ Unlock the full Gate Phrase, risking herself and everything she loves...
Or
▶️ Run, and let humanity remain enslaved in a dream of its own making.
But time is running out.
The system is reawakening.
And the dead are calling.
