SYNOPSIS
Where “X = Infinity”
A Gamer on Planet X is attempting to quantify her internal force field by exercising a set of decoded directives in which she believes will lead her to the Origin of X.
Inside her domicile that overlooks Sect 390.95, she focuses on the energy protrusion from the core of her humanoid cells and the composition of her body is altering forms in an unstable manner. Somewhere between exploding and imploding, she is having difficulty controlling her energy output, dissipates momentarily and reappears on planet grounds in an unfamiliar location with a terrified expression upon her face.
The decoded directives did not lead her to the origin of X but rather to an unknown dimension that is dark, moist and vacant. The energy she protruded was of light and was repelled by this dark force that she accidentally stumbled upon.
Regrouped from physical distortion and exhausted by the consumption of energy protrusion, she reaches for an energy syringe filled with red bubbly gel and injects it into her body to replenish her energy level. Silver liquid oozes from the pores of her skin and cleanses the dark energy that she absorbed during her attempted Leap to X.
Unsure of where she is, she sees a passenger Glider gliding nearby at 5 above ground and waves at the driver to pick her up. She swipes her Gains Card on the deduction slot on the back seat and asked to be transported back to her domicile. Resting on the cushioned seat, she computes a series of variables in her mind and presses on the X-on behind her ear. She requests the Mainframe to accept her 19th Version Upgrade and was denied. The Glider ascends to 20 above ground level and merges into the dense traffic in the center of the flamboyantly designed city.
***********
It is Cycle 2142 in a universe 500,000 trillion cycles away from earth, on a planet referred to as X, the phenomenon of time does not exist and progression is denoted by Cycles.
Within this infinite universe exists the Dimension of X, which encompasses three horizontally parallel laterals; the highest lateral above all is Ultra X, an unknown and undisclosed dimension which dictates the variables of existence. In the center of this dimension lays the Compound Grounds, an order conduit headed by the Keeper, the mythical legend who orchestrates the order of the lower lateral, known as Planet X, where its humanoid inhabitants with earthling ancestry, known as Gamers, are sent to accomplish their Games as programmed by the Mainframe.
The three parallel laterals are connected by the Mainframe through its vertical “cylindrical spine”, where all intelligence is manifested and variables are quantified. Each lateral rotates at a different speed which causes split momentum within the singular dimension. Kinetic friction caused by the split momentum is further quantified into pure power and the energy feeds are what bind the laterals together in this “Segregated Entirety of X” - where interdependence of the laterals is guarded as the ultimate “Secret”, disclosed to only those who successfully find their way back to the Point of Origin and win the Game of “X = Infinity”.
Gamers would not exist without Ultra X. Ultra X would not be functional without the energy protrusion of the Gamers. Compound Grounds would not exist without the energy propelled by the split momentum caused between the higher and lower laterals, and Awakening will not be possible without this pure white energy.
While Ultra X manipulates the Gamers’ at play on Planet Grounds, Gamers are unaware of any matters that exist beyond their sky limits and have never posed any questions as to the reasoning of the order. Conditioned to exercise the programming of the universe on a predetermined game path, their perception of reality is misled by the unreality of the dimension and its unchallenged artificial choices, disguised uniquely as options and variables that are available to all who seek.
On Planet X, a robust city full of buildings of withering heights erected on metallic plats, Gamers conduct their orders of this single purpose programming (Game) and endeavor to win the “Game of X” by finding their way back to the Point of Origin to claim their immortality.
When majority of the Gamers are alert and active on their game paths, kinetic and friction energy are produced to feed the Mainframe. The active cycle is clearly denoted by a white lit sky. When majority of the Gamers are replenishing their energy level and become dormant, skyline graduals into gyrating rainbow hues. The completion of one active cycle followed by one dormant cycle is considered as a full Cycle on Planet X.
Lifespan of Gamers are conditionally infinite and at the point of “Awakening”, each humanoid is brought to life and implanted a game device called X-on which holds twenty allocated upgrades. Each Gamer is pre-programmed with a life function and the ultimate objective is to reach the “Point of X” before the allocated upgrades are used up.
Each upgrade contains a unique set of intricately formulated variables that dictates the Gamer’s individual reality on the Game path. Gamers are given ‘choices’ to request the Mainframe for variable upgrades in order to get closer to the Point of X. Variables may not be rewritten and may only be upgraded to newer versions, with the last 20th version as the final folder of a Gamer’s lifespan on Planet X. If ‘Point of X’ is not reached by then, the Game is lost and the Gamer will “vanish” from Planet Grounds with no options to be recycled.
Gamers are given alternatives to “Opt Out” before the game is lost and can plead to the Mainframe to allow recycling (Awakening) as a new Gamer to restart the game. The most difficult predicament as recycling to a new start is not guaranteed.
A breed of ‘Collectors’ delegated by the Keeper, collects unused upgrades from gamers who abandon the games and volunteer to Opt Out. Unused upgrades are transferred into the Collectors’ Swipers and returned to the Keeper for recycling, allowing new Gamers to “Awaken”.
Gamers write their own versions with the intention to get to X but many have made errors along the way and are quickly using up their allocated versions, creating a huge demand for black market upgrades.
To capitalize on this demand, a clan of ruthless and power starved Reverters, headed by the lethal pair (counter-beings) – Zahim and Nicola, is hunting for unused upgrades from Collectors and is trying to crack through the back door of X, secretly writing alternative programs to change the rules of the Mainframe’s masterplan and to gain control of Planet X, fighting for what they perceive as independence and true immortality.
Of all Gamers, only Toren and Chloe, whose game paths converge because of ‘matched’ version upgrades, have observed the reactions of given rules and have studied the patterns of the Game. While falling for each other and entangled in heated passion, they discover an exhilarating yet dangerous adventure, which ultimately leads them to the Point of X. Having won the Game and rewarded the highest honor of Planet X, they are further awarded with the “Key To Existence” and become immortals as they “deserve”. Under the lead of the Mainframe’s manipulations, they are led to believe that the “Secret” has been revealed to them, but yet, what they are disclosed is merely a fraction of the reality within the realm of unreality.
Given new powers to assure the orderly functioning of the Planet, Toren begins to doubt the “Authority” and its distorted truth while Chloe stands firm in her believe. On opposite fronts, their differences cause a power struggle on the light side of the planet.
On the dark front, through the Reverters’ counter-manipulation, true secrets of the hidden infrastructure are revealed. The Gamers’ conflicted actions towards the infinite variables propel an expected evolution, which disrupts the energy flow between parallel dimensions. Thus, chaos and disaster stir the otherwise peaceful planet which is not equipped for any forms of disruptions, never mind an unexpected evolution which forces Ultra X to make unprecedented adaptations to combat resistance by controlling shared intelligence.
At the end, Universal Truth within the dimension is challenged by all. When manipulations no longer apply, Ultra X looses power to the New Truth as established by The Reverters. Systems begin to malfunction and laterals begin to collapse while a New Reality comes into formation.
There is only one person who can reverse the damages caused by the rise of the New Truth, but should he attempt a Reversal? Or should he allow the risks of collective destruction in exchange for an enticing and promising New Reality?

Preface (Author's Vision)
“Somewhere between reality and unreality exists the dimension of X”
A huge portion of this book is based on the theology of predetermination, artificial choices, manipulated reactions in reality and unreality.
If the phenomenon of Quantum Physics is possible, then the existence of lateral universes in a multi dimensional space is altogether probable.
Based upon this theory, I have created Planet X – a multi dimensional universe that comprises three laterals: Planet grounds, Compound and Ultra X. Although these three laterals share one single dimension, they all run on split momentum.
Where time and logic are non existent, Ultra X, the highest lateral above others, manipulates all actions and reactions on planet and compound grounds, and is reliant upon the energy feeds created through frictions of split momentum and energy protrusion from the Gamers.
Gamers and Reverters on Planet X are merely vehicles and conduits to produce and channel energy feeds; without friction, there will be no energy and systems across all laterals will begin to shut down as their dimension implodes.
Thus, evolution must never take place, and Mainframe at Ultra X makes every attempt to ensure that all actions and reactions are manipulated without triggering the awareness of the Gamers and Reverters.
Just how long can Ultra X keep their Secrets? Hidden infrastructures of this dimension are being revealed along the game paths and evolution becomes inevitable. Chaos begins as the ultra power loses control over their gamers and choices become counter artificial."
