In the year 7698, Aeon Flux, a skilled assassin and agent, is tasked with infiltrating a heavily fortified facility in order to assassinate the leader of the neighboring country, Bregna. Aeon dons a skintight bodysuit equipped with various gadgets and makes her way through the facility, overcoming guards and obstacles along the way.
Once Aeon reaches her target, she discovers that the leader of Bregna is actually a child who is being kept alive by a machine. Aeon hesitates to kill the child, but is forced to do so when she is discovered by guards. Aeon narrowly escapes the facility, but suffers a gunshot wound in the process.
Back at her base, Aeon is treated by her partner, Trevor, who notifies her of a new mission. This time, Aeon must rescue a scientist who has developed a cure for a deadly virus that is plaguing their world. Aeon infiltrates the heavily guarded facility where the scientist is being held, but is soon cornered by guards.
Just when it seems like Aeon is about to be caught, she is rescued by a mysterious figure named Sithandra. Sithandra helps Aeon escape with the scientist, but not before revealing that Trevor has been working with Bregna and betraying Aeon.
Aeon and the scientist make it back to their own base, but Aeon is wracked with guilt over killing the child earlier. The scientist reveals that the child was actually a clone and that the real leader of Bregna is still alive. Aeon decides to embark on a new mission to find and save the real leader of Bregna.
Meanwhile, Trevor meets with the leader of Bregna and reveals that he has captured the scientist and Aeon. However, the Bregnan leader reveals that he has been working with Aeon all along and that Trevor has been duped. A chase ensues, with Aeon and the Bregnan leader attempting to escape while Trevor and his guards pursue them.
In the end, Aeon and the Bregnan leader manage to escape and make their way back to Bregna. However, Aeon is left wondering who she can trust and where her loyalties lie in this dangerous world.
