FRACTURED SKIES CHRONICLES (PART ONE) - THE CRACK

FRACTURED SKIES CHRONICLES (PART ONE) - THE CRACK
By Milan Bubalo

GENRE: Sci-fi, Fantasy
LOGLINE:

In 1894 New York, a troubled orphan named Luca begins to sense cracks in reality—moments of glitching light, warped time, and silent watchers. Unbeknownst to him, he is the key anomaly in a collapsing simulation built by ancient, otherworldly architects. As dark agents cross layers to erase him, including a psychopathic child-assassin known as Red Jack, Luca must escape the orphanage with Joe, a girl haunted by dreams that aren’t hers. Meanwhile, in a parallel realm beyond time, a fractured guardian named Maya uncovers the horrifying truth behind the Construct Veil—a decaying machine reality meant to suppress cosmic chaos. As myth bleeds into flesh and the cracks widen, reality bends toward annihilation. The only way out is through the glitch.

THE CRACK is a first instalment of Fractured Skies Chronicles saga , cinematic sci-fi horror fusing The Matrix, Prometheus and Interstellar, set against the soot-stained backdrop of Gilded Age New York.

SYNOPSIS:

In a world built on lies, the truth will shatter it wide open.

In late 19th-century New York, fifteen-year-old orphan Luca’s life is turned upside down when he sees a mysterious crack in the sky—a rift between the layers of reality itself. Unbeknownst to him, this anomaly has caught the attention of Maya, a young guardian from Symbium, the second layer of existence, tasked with maintaining the fragile balance between worlds.

Maya’s journey propels her into the Habitat, a long-abandoned sanctuary where humanity’s last hope—the ancient Constructors—once tried to build new realities. But as the layers begin to unravel, it becomes clear that the Constructors' ambitious creations, including the ruthless chaos of Omnia and the silent overseer Presidio One, have inadvertently given rise to something far darker: an entity known as Toth's Gate.

Now, Luca and Maya must race against time to stop Toth from breaking through the layers, a force that threatens to destroy everything they know. With each layer they descend, the line between ally and enemy begins to blur, and the very fabric of their reality starts to crumble. In a battle between creation and destruction, one thing remains undeniable: The creation now holds the keys to the creator's cage.

Will Luca and Maya succeed in stopping the collapse of all worlds, or will they be swallowed by the rift—just another forgotten echo lost to time?

Fractured Skies Chronicles is an intense sci-fi epic that explores the fragility of reality, the cost of creation, and the ultimate price of awakening. In a world where even the brightest utopia hides a sinister truth, Fractured Skies Chronicles asks: What happens when the dreamer wakes up?
