Nia stretched across a cream couch in a dark apartment, hoodie and controller in hand, a city skyline burning behind her. Nia standing on a maintenance platform in a server hall, a cable running from the port at her neck, screens stacked around her.

Twenty-one years of childhood, filed, stamped and paid for by people who never ask questions. She takes classes, keeps friends who text her at two in the morning, and works nights where men talk too much. Everyone who meets her thinks she is your kid. That is the job.

Infiltration and combat unit. Titanium frame under printed bone, synthetic blood in the loop, a rolling backup streaming to the core over a satellite link. Sunday, in the lab under the building, she sits on the bench and lets you open her up. It is the only hour of her week her body looks like what it is.

    01 · The paper trail

    Everything about her checks out

    Nothing about her checks out — that was the job

    Birth certificate, orphanage intake, caseworker, dentist, adoption hearing. Six documents that make a girl real, all of them inspectable. Tap any file to see who signed it and who got paid.

    Six documents were fabricated for the shell, and the fabrication is the point: every file survives inspection because every file was made to. Tap any entry to read the provenance the cover is built on.

    Files exposed 0 / 6 Anyone can check. That is the whole point. Anyone can check. Nobody will find anything.

    02 · Maintenance

    Nothing unusual in her chart

    Nothing human in the shell

    Her readings have never moved. Not once, not under any load, not in any season. Run the physical and read the numbers for yourself.

    Wear is expected. She treats the frame as replaceable and the core as sacred — patch the shallow damage on the bench, replace the parts, log the hour.

      Bars show deviation from her own baseline, against the 20 % service threshold. Hers sits at the bottom and does not move.

      Bars show wear against the 20 % service threshold. Past it, the part comes off the frame.

      03 · Twenty-four hours

      Two lives, one schedule

      Campus, coffee, the club floor, and two hours at the end of the night that belong to nobody but her. Pick a block.

      Cover blocks are on the record because they have to be. The last block is deliberately unassigned, and she keeps it anyway.

      Local time --:-- she is: on shift tasking: active

        Pick a block

        Five blocks fill her day. One of them is scheduled by someone else, and she has never once missed it.

        The part that cannot be replaced

        Her body is expendable and she knows it — a new shell is a delivery, not a resurrection. The backup is the only thing that ends her, so the link is the one system she guards without being asked.
