Plot
[edit]Mia (Julia Montes) is a night shift security guard in the hospital & pharmaceutical facilities run by the Jacinto family of doctors, and a single mother raising her son Xavier. One epidemic, a hybrid of dengue and malaria are spreading, where casualties are high and vaccines to cure it are not given by the company, for a certain reason. She tries desperately to beg her boss a dose, but declined. She stole a case full, but costed her life when Franco killed her in a market. The medicine works, but she died nonetheless. Her son was cured, and he becomes a poster boy for his mother's deed. Xavier is a scientist and inventor in 2045, creating a holographic stick.
The time would rewound back to 2020 where Mia saw news clips about her death in the mysterious stick. She decides to change the fate, by doing the same thing, but this time, she was more careful. She now tries to find clues about the epidemic, and tries to save as many victims as she could.
