Tyrone and Jamaal Singh have always worked side by side. Orphans of a disaster, they built their lives in the same place that took their parents: deep space. Out beyond regulated sectors, they dismantle asteroids for EMI -work hard, indentured contracts, endless shifts, and the kind of danger you learn not to think about. When their vessel attempts to secure a rare interstellar object designated Bisita12, the mission collapses. The official report is brief.System malfunction.One brother lost. The company calls it a failure. Jamaal calls it wrong. Because in the quiet aftermath of the incident, the space station doesn’t behave like damaged machinery. It reacts. It glitches. It anticipates. And as corporate containment protocols tighten, Jamaal is left with a question he can’t afford to ignore: Was something lost out there -or did something come back? Fully written. Updates on a fixed schedule until completion.Grounded industrial sci-fi centered on loyalty, grief, and the cost of surviving space. Created from found documents.
