Chapter 1 - The Kinetic Debt (Sci-Fi / Thriller)

The Hook: In a future where teleportation is instant, the "cost" of travel isn't money—it's motion.

​The Premise: A secret class of elites, known as "Vectos," live in a state of perfect stillness. Because they teleport constantly, their bodies lose the ability to generate their own kinetic energy. To keep their hearts beating and lungs moving, they must "drain" the physical momentum from others.

​The Conflict: The protagonist is a professional athlete whose "speed" is stolen by a Vecto. They aren't drained of blood, but of the ability to move. They become a living statue, while the Vecto uses their stolen "hustle" to stay alive. The story follows the athlete's journey to steal their momentum back in a world where stillness is death.
