+++ MSG +++ incoming >> reached street level 3H << EOM +++

Out of the building doesn’t really feel like being outside. The visual range at least increased from a few paces up to one hundred paces. The progress is still slow, it’s like in those dreams where you run without reaching anything. Outside the buzzing is louder. No, not louder. I can’t really hear it, only feel it.

It’s one corner at a time. Cover, go, cover, go. No movement on the scanners. Where’s the other squad? Where’s the sub hab?

Everyone is freaked out, no one would dare say so. An empty city with millions of people hiding and other things crawling around. You feel movement all around you. Thoughts peeking at you. You see fear without seeing anything.

+++MSG>> outgoing >> found a sub hab > level Y38-321>> entering << STATUS E << EOM+++

Everything seems so easy. I think they haven’t met any resistance yet. Probably Y38 is empty. So, where did these horrors go?

+++MSG>> outgoing >> entering sub hab > level Y38-321>> no sensor signals available << instruments dead << EOM+++

I’m starting to wonder how many squads they’ve already sent into Y38. And for how long. No one seems to know what’s really going on inside.

+++MSG>> incoming >> nothing in here > awai… … … … … … … CONNECTING … … CODE 22311 … … … SIGNAL LOST+++

We are lost.

The Drop Troops finally found something. Maybe it’s a hint of what haunts us in that block.
