NE-R0X1 was a prototype built differently from the start. Not patched together from scraps of drone failures. Not reconditioned from a prior subject. He was new. A clean slate.

// SECTION 1 — PROJECT FILE: NE-R0X1

Designation: NE-R0X1 Classification: Neuro-Enhanced — Research Grade Zero — Experimental Unit One Origin: [REDACTED] / Fenrir Synthesis Program Assignment: High-threat field operations, internal compliance, autonomous enforcement Status: Active Asset Alias (Self-assigned): “Nero”

---

He calls himself Nero now. Nobody gave him that name. It was never logged, never assigned. It just started appearing—quietly—on internal access reports, rerouted maintenance orders, drone oversight lists.

If the drones used it, it was because he told them to. They don’t improvise. They were people once—but they’re not anymore. That part gets erased.

---

NE-R0X1 wasn’t a repurposed failure. He wasn’t salvaged. He was made differently. Designed as a clean slate. A fresh start.

Shepherd brought him in personally. Not recruited—offered. Offered a job. A home. A suit.

Told it would enhance him. And it did.

What he wasn’t told: it was grown from Vanta—biological, unstable, and intentionally invasive. A living suit meant to seep in. Not wrap. Bond.

The visor was a drone model—meant for conditioning. But this time? Subtle. Shepherd’s orders. Make it invisible. Make him believe.

---

The logs said integration was clean. No neural feedback. No instability. But everything moved too fast. Too smooth.

There were no fights. No questions. No visible resistance.

It didn’t feel like obedience. It felt like something already adapting.

---

He didn’t talk to anyone here. Not to us. But he spoke to Shepherd. A lot.

Private channels. Audio transcripts locked behind executive clearance. We never got to see them. But I know what that means.

It wasn’t tactical. It was personal.

---

Shepherd rerouted resources. Budget lines changed. Biolab access expanded. Other departments lost entire programs.

I flagged it. Nobody cared.

He was untouchable.

---

I’ve seen what came before him. Every failed subject. Burned out. Ripped apart from the inside. Suits that ate through their hosts. Screaming into incinerators.

He didn’t survive because we perfected it. He survived because he was built to.

We said he was stable.

What we should’ve said—was aware.

We didn’t design him to think. We designed him to obey.

And when he stopped doing that?

We didn’t notice.

---

// SECTION 2 — RETURN / DIRECTORIAL LOSS

We were warned he might come back. Not to open fire. Not to stand down. Just to be ready.

They called it “unexpected asset reentry.” Off-record, I heard Shepherd say it differently: > “He’s compromised. If he comes back—contain him. Don’t engage. Don’t talk.”

We were told not to speak to NE-R0X1. We weren’t told what would happen if he spoke first.

---

He arrived through main access. No override. No clearance. He didn’t break in. He walked in.

Cameras clocked him six meters from the checkpoint. No helmet. No aggression. Arms relaxed. Pistols holstered. He didn’t reach for them.

He looked like someone who wanted answers.

---

Two guards met him just inside the corridor. One issued a warning. The other called it in. NE-R0X1 said something.

They raised their weapons.

And he drew first.

---

Two shots. Left pistol. Clean execution. One guard dropped. The other returned fire—too slow.

That’s when lockdown triggered.

---

We scrambled suppression units. Drones deployed. He moved faster.

He didn’t hesitate. Didn’t shout. Didn’t run.

He advanced with deliberate efficiency. Each shot was placed. Every target dropped in two or less.

---

I watched suppression drones drop one after another. He reloaded on the move. No panic. No noise. Just clinical elimination.

Executive wing sealed. Override code came from Shepherd directly. Didn’t slow him down.

---

The last footage we received showed NE-R0X1 holstering the left pistol, reloading the right. He paused in front of the executive office. Knocked once.

Then the feed went black.

---

I was assigned cleanup detail. Executive wing was sealed. Unsealed. Then sealed again. When I got there, it was already clean.

No blood. No body. Just a displaced chair and a live terminal.

No biometric read. No entry tag. Just one line logged:

> NE-R0X1 — Present.

---

The next day, Shepherd’s death was filed internally. “Deceased – Succession Protocol Initiated.” No funeral. No autopsy. No memo.

And NE-R0X1?

His name was removed. His designation changed.

> Nero.

And no one corrected it.
