About

THE ABSOLUTE The world was never meant to be controlled by a single word. Human evolution changed when mutations began appearing among ordinary people. Some gained extraordinary abilities, while others developed powers capable of mass destruction. Governments quickly recognised their military potential. Mutants were captured, experimented on, trained, and transformed into living weapons. Among them existed one individual whose power surpassed every recorded mutation. C-00. Codename: Athena She possesses the ability to manipulate particles at a fundamental level, granting her control over matter, energy, and the natural elements through a single spoken word. Commands such as Burn, Freeze, Rise, Crush, Shatter, Silence, and Disappear can reshape the physical world. She can summon lightning, control fire and water, manipulate wind and earth, alter temperatures, crush structures, and dismantle matter at the molecular level. Her potential has no established upper limit. Her abilities are closely tied to her emotions. When calm, she can control her power with remarkable precision. When frightened, distressed, or enraged, her commands become unpredictable, sometimes affecting everything around her. A single unintended word could destroy a facility, while a complete loss of control could wipe out an entire town. Despite her terrifying abilities, she is still human. She can laugh, cry, feel affection, become curious, and form attachments. However, years of isolation and experimentation have left her unfamiliar with ordinary life. To control her, the military developed a Neural Suppression Collar, fitted around her neck. It monitors her neurological activity and power output, allowing authorised personnel to suppress her abilities, restrict her power, or temporarily incapacitate her through a remote-control device. It cannot permanently eliminate her abilities, and prolonged suppression causes physical and psychological distress. If her power exceeds its capacity, the system can fail. The military considers her their greatest asset and most dangerous threat. W-07 is a genetically modified soldier with the ability to manipulate kinetic energy. He can absorb and redirect physical impacts, stop projectiles, generate devastating force, and withstand attacks that would kill ordinary humans. Trained from childhood to become the perfect military operative, he is disciplined, calculating, and accustomed to following orders. He is assigned as C-00's personal handler, responsible for monitoring her, operating her collar, and calming her whenever she loses control. He is given exclusive remote access to her suppression system. Initially, their relationship is strictly professional. However, he gradually begins treating her as a person rather than a military asset. He talks to her, answers her endless questions, brings her small comforts, and teaches her about the outside world. She becomes familiar with his footsteps and voice, eventually trusting him more than anyone else. He becomes her only genuine friend, while she slowly brings out the humanity he has buried beneath years of military conditioning. As their bond grows, he discovers that the military has no intention of ever releasing her. They intend to keep her restrained and exploit her abilities indefinitely. He begins questioning his orders and secretly planning her escape. He knows what she is capable of. He has witnessed the destruction she can cause. But he also knows that beneath the designation, the collar, and the terrifying power is a girl who deserves to live freely. The military gave him the authority to control the most powerful mutant alive. But he wants to give that control back to her. He was assigned to keep her under control. Instead, he may become the reason she finally becomes free.
