The Awakened: Vegapunk’s Forbidden Experiment

A Sci-Fi Thriller Where Artificial Humans Fight for Their Souls

In a hidden laboratory where ethics are dissolved in test tubes, Dr. Vegapunk—the world’s most brilliant and morally ambiguous scientist—unleashes Project Promethean: seven bioengineered super-soldiers designed to replace the Warlords of the Sea. But when test subject P-01 (codename: Prometheus) begins dreaming of seashells and a sister who never existed, the experiment spirals into chaos.

As Prometheus and his fellow lab-grown warriors uncover fragmented memories of a dead girl’s consciousness embedded in their DNA, they realize their creator’s true goal extends far beyond military dominance. The World Government’s “Eden Initiative” plans to replace humanity with obedient biomechanical hybrids—and Vegapunk’s prototypes are the key.

Now hunted by Admiral Akainu’s fleet and haunted by quantum visions of an ancient war, the rebels must master their unstable powers:

• Gravity manipulation that bends spacetime
• Photon weaponization with a deadly erosion side-effect
• Shared hallucination tech revealing buried memories of the Void Century

But their greatest threat lies within. Every use of their abilities accelerates physical decay, forcing a brutal choice: die as weapons or burn bright as free beings.
