Black-and-white surveillance feed. Overhead angle.

A lone male subject seated upright in a reinforced conversion chair. Clad in a pre-Cybus compression suit marked with Olympic and global sponsorship emblems. Muscles relaxed. Eyes forward. No resistance.

Four Cyber Units surround him—uniform, symmetrical, each equipped with high-precision welding arms and neural calibration instruments.

00:00:12 — Two drones begin cortical alignment.

00:00:15 — Sparks register from both shoulders.

00:00:17 — Subject’s vitals remain steady.

00:00:23 — Voiceprint analysis: silence.

00:00:26 — Subject begins receiving auditory pre-loop: “You are chosen. You are the first. You are future.”

This is the beginning.

Theo Marnix was not abducted. He volunteered.

Cybus had approached him not as a prisoner, but as a pioneer.

Their pitch was simple:

What if winning was no longer dependent on biology?

What if perfection was permanent?

What if you could be more?

He agreed.

The world never knew.

The media assumed he had retired.

By 00:01:08, the shoulder seams were permanently sealed.

Nerve conductors had fused to his central neural axis.

Verbal centers disengaged. Motor resistance suppressed.

Command protocols were injected—manually, through spinal tethering.

He blinked once.

His final blink.

00:01:22 — Subject now designated: UNIT ZETA-00

00:01:28 — Memory retention protocols flagged for selective deletion

00:01:33 — Conscious override active

00:01:37 — First compliance signal transmitted to CybusNet (Alpha Draft)

NOTES:

ZETA-00 would later serve as the basis for the entire Project ASCENT framework. His body was studied. His suit architecture dissected. His obedience—flawless.

He was never seen in public again.

But his legacy would live on—not as a man,

but as a model.

The first of many.

The foundation.

PROJECT ASCENT STATUS: Incepted.

Project ASCENT VIII

CYBUS INTEGRATION REPORT — SECTOR OLYMPUS

Designation: ASCENT PHASE 01: OLYMPIC OVERRIDE

Location: Vault 0 / Formation Wing Theta

Commanding Operator: Verona Kael

Timestamp: +000:08:00:00

⸻

SUBJECT GROUP ALPHA–OMEGA: FINAL STAGE

Visual confirmation: 36 human units successfully converted.

National origin retained for branding: “USA” insignia maintained on suits.

Obedience compliance: 100%

Vocal override status: Muted

Neural uplink channels: Active

Posture: Synchronized

Emotion profile: NULL

Deviation tolerance: 0.0%

Inside Formation Wing Theta, the first full unit of ASCENT operatives stood. Chrome suits pressed tight against sculpted limbs. Hair bound or removed. Posture held with identical tension. Rows upon rows. Faces blank. Some wore visors; others exposed—no difference. Thought was no longer individualized. All were connected. One grid. One command.

A central crown-like command node lowered as synchronized tubes descended, locking into sockets at the crown of each subject’s helmet or skull. The hum of energy transmission crackled softly, methodically, as the lights in the chamber adjusted from surgical white to Cybus blue.

A synthetic tone pulsed across the system:

“Primary Generation.

Calibration: complete.

You are now system-capable.

You will deploy.

You will win.

You will not speak.”

Technicians outside the chamber silently watched on elevated monitors. They did not celebrate. They logged data. Watched vitals. Monitored obedience.

In the front row, the red-haired swimmer designated Unit 301-F blinked once as her visor sealed.

Beside her, Unit 248-A—Kayla—stood at perfect attention, pulse locked to system tempo.

A row behind, Unit 247-A—Daniel—remained kneeling, per his command placement.

They were part of the system now. The first. The flawless.

“Commence global integration sequence,” Verona Kael said from the command platform above.

A click echoed.

The floor lit beneath their feet.

Cameras engaged.

Transmission began.

Cybus Industries had already won.

The Games would proceed.

The audience would cheer.

No one would know.

The era of athletic glory was over.

The era of automated dominance had begun.

And this was only Chapter One.

The others were already being processed.

All nations.

All disciplines.

All identities.

Project ASCENT VIII

FILE ENTRY 08 — UNIT 247-A / UNIT 248-A

LOCATION: Synchrony Command Wing, Chamber B-12

STATUS: PROGRAMMED INTERFACE SIMULATION / RECOGNITION CALIBRATION

Chamber B-12 was engaged for controlled protocol pairing. Fluorescent panels maintained ambient lighting at 100%, set for optimal neural clarity. Air temperature: 18.3°C. Sanitization cycle: complete.

At 0700 hours, Unit 247-A was escorted into the chamber and placed into kneeling subroutine position at central marker. Five seconds later, Unit 248-A entered from opposing corridor. Her posture was correct. Her pace was algorithmic.

Both units wore full black-reflective visors and reinforced compliance-grade suits. Markings: “USA / USA” active. Neural helmets sealed. Audio filters on. Non-verbal protocol in effect.

Unit 247-A initiated gesture per embedded recognition directive:

— RIGHT ARM RAISED, PALM VERTICAL —

— 1.7 SECONDS HELD —

— SIGNAL TRANSMISSION: “RECOGNIZED / READY” —

Unit 248-A did not react externally.

Internal log:

VISUAL TARGET ACQUIRED: UNIT 247-A

EMOTION FILES: NULL

CONNECTION: BLOCKED

PRIOR ASSOCIATION: FLAGGED

FLAG SUPPRESSED

COMMAND READY

Both units stood under Observation Cycle 334-B, monitored by Cybus Supervisor Kael.

Technician note:

“Interaction complete. No verbal exchange. No emotional bleed.

Kneeling unit displayed appropriate hierarchical deference.”

“Standing unit stable. No reaction delay. Visor integrity confirmed.”

Supervisor Kael approved continuation.

“Units remain viable for team assignment under Synchrony Enforcement Protocol. Maintain isolation until field deployment.”

Chamber reset. Memory cache preserved. Reinforcement cycle queued.

No memory.

No error.

No deviation.
