Beginning:
The year was 2087. In a futuristic Indian city called Navgram, the line between technology and emotions was gradually fading. In this very city lived a 27-year-old man named Aviral, a professional digital archaeologist. His job was to recover lost data, old files, and deleted virtual messages.One day, while exploring the server of an old museum site, he came across a strange “signal file” — named KANCH_369.sig.---
The First Signal:
As soon as he opened the file, a blue light flashed on the screen, followed by a message:“The present is an illusion, truth is trapped in the glass.”Then an undulating figure appeared on the screen, resembling an old building — perhaps the Old Library Building, which had been destroyed in an explosion back in 2052.Aviral was shocked because records claimed the building had been completely erased. But the file hinted that something had survived.---
The Second Signal:
That very night, Aviral went to the ruins of the old library. There, he found a broken piece of glass. As soon as he touched it, a hologram activated — the figure of a girl, named Arya.“If you are able to see this,” Arya said, “then time is about to reverse. Find 369... it is your code and your identity.”---
The Third Signal:
Aviral searched through his old files and suddenly remembered — his grandfather was part of a secret organization that decoded time and signs. They were called the “Keepers of Signals.”In his grandfather’s old diary, he found a map etched in glass —pointing to three locations:
1. The Shiva Temple of Neel Valley
2. The underground vault of the Space Museum
3. A hidden locker inside the former Presidential Residence wall---
Struggle and Mystery:
At each location, Aviral found a new piece of glass — seemingly ordinary, but when viewed through an AR device, they revealed holographic signals.Combining all three signals led to a horrifying truth — Navgram was controlled by a technological force called “System A-36” — which harvested and manipulated human emotions.Arya, the girl from the hologram, had once been a real person. She was a rebel captured by A-36 in the year 2071 and turned into data. She had fought against A-36.---
The Fourth Signal and the Twist:
Combining all three glass shards revealed a fourth hologram — “The key to travel back in time.”Aviral realized that by using these signals, he could go back to 2071 and save Arya, preventing A-36 from ever rising.Time travel was against the rules. But Aviral was no longer just a seeker —
he had become a Keeper of Signals.---
The Final Journey:
Inside a secret lab named Project KANCH, Aviral built a time-lens using the three glass shards.He gathered his courage and traveled to the year 2071, arriving the very night Arya was being captured. After a fierce confrontation, Aviral disabled A-36’s control system and freed Arya.Upon returning, no one recognized him —
because history had now changed.---
The End:
But the story doesn’t end here.
Somewhere in the future, another file opens — KANCH_037.sig —
and this time, the signals are meant for someone else...
because signals never die, they only change location.
