ZONE XERO

ZONE XERO
By Ansh J.

GENRE: Thriller, Sci-fi
LOGLINE:

During an escalating war on Mars, a frontline soldier receives a cryptic transmission from a future version of herself, foretelling that her current mission will lead to the end of humanity.

SYNOPSIS:

The sound was faint at first, barely a whisper beneath layers of Martian noise. But then it became clear. A voice. Calling for help from a place that doesn’t exist yet.

Sergeant Kaela Voss is a battle-hardened soldier stationed on Mars, executing what should be a routine recon mission through the ruins of an abandoned terraforming colony called Zone Xero. But when her comm-link picks up a mysterious transmission coded to her own biometric ID, the war she thought she was fighting shatters. The voice warns her: Abort the mission now or humanity dies.

Only, it is not just any voice. It is her own. Older, exhausted and terrified.

As Kaela fights off rogue AI drones and internal suspicion, she begins to question not just her orders from Earth, but the very timeline she inhabits.

Is the message a trap?

Or has the future finally found a way to scream back?
