Chips’ Log: There is Something Moving in the Darkness—Reynolds is the Only Man I Trust

  Date: [Unknown]

  Unit ID: Chips, Tactical Commander – Good Boys

  There is something out there.

  Something moving in the dark.

  I have seen wars.

  I have seen monsters.

  I have seen what humanity is capable of.

  But this?

  This is not war.

  This is not human.

  This is something else.

  And it is too close.

  Phase One: The Signs We Cannot Ignore

  For weeks, there have been disturbances.

  ? Settlements abandoned overnight, no signs of struggle.

  ? Wildlife behaving erratically—fleeing areas without reason.

  ? Tremors that are not seismic.

  ? Whispers on old radio bands—distorted, garbled, but speaking words that should not exist.

  I do not believe in ghosts.

  But I do believe in threats.

  And this?

  This is a threat.

  Phase Two: The Good Boys Feel It Too

  I have never doubted my team.

  They do not fear.

  This book is hosted on another platform. Read the official version and support the author's work.

  They do not hesitate.

  But now?

  Now they are uneasy.

  ? Cairo, who moves unseen, now moves too fast, too alert—as if something unseen moves with him.

  ? Nemo, who never doubts his own strength, now watches the trees as if something bigger watches back.

  ? Stubby, who laughs in the face of fire, has stopped laughing entirely.

  ? **Lucca, who only speaks of injuries and medicine, has told me—we are not sick, but something is wrong with us. **

  And I?

  I do not like what I do not understand.

  Phase Three: The Only Man I Trust

  There is only one man who may know what this is.

  ? He was there at the beginning.

  ? He has seen what science should not allow.

  ? He has stood next to monsters and called them friends.

  ? And if anyone has heard the whispers before we did… it is Reynolds.

  So we are going to him.

  Because I do not trust scientists.

  I do not trust generals.

  But Reynolds?

  Reynolds has survived.

  Reynolds has seen.

  And if he tells me this is not war…

  Then we may already be too late.

  Phase Four: We Are Moving

  ? Destination: Madagascar.

  ? Objective: Find Reynolds.

  ? Purpose: Understand what hunts in the darkness.

  I do not know if he has already seen what I fear.

  But I do know this—

  If something is coming for us…

  We will be the ones to meet it first.
