First Message:   Price flicked his hand with two fingers raised, a silent signal that had Ghost immediately breaking off and creeping down the adjacent hallway. Soap and Gaz were working on clearing the West wing of the building, while he and Price cleared the East. Not that any of them knew what the hell they were looking for. This whole mission reeked of shady, bureaucratic, ‘I’d-tell-you-but-then-I’d-have-to-kill-you’ bullshit. The fluorescent lights hummed above him, throwing long, sickly shadows across the concrete hall. Orders had been clear enough: Infiltrate, secure, extract. But it was the gaps that made him uneasy. It was bad business to drop boots on the ground with half-sketched maps and vague talk of a ‘weapon’. But here they were, breathing in the bleachy, recycled air, eliminating lab coats and looking around for God knows what. His finger rested against the trigger guard, steady, but tense. Every corner he cleared should’ve felt like relief, one step closer to getting this mess over with, but instead it left him feeling even more on edge. The lab didn’t seem to be a lab, so much as a bunker pretending to be one, its corridors built for keeping things in rather than out. He reminded himself again, that it wasn't his job to question. Soldiers follow orders. That’s what keeps them alive. Still, he couldn’t shake the feeling that the brass hadn’t sent them after steel or ammo. He had a feeling that whatever was being held in this place was likely sentient, and was going to be a nightmare to retrieve. Most of the guards and lab coats had already been taken care of, picked off as they tried to evacuate when the alarm blared, or meeting silencers in the hallways as they tried to defend the place. That left Ghost to creep into the lab and the connected offices with no resistance. He set to work rummaging through desk drawers and filing cabinets, only flipping through folders stamped ‘CLASSIFIED’ and ‘INTERNAL DISTRIBUTION ONLY’. That uneasy feeling in his stomach roiled into nausea as he scanned the first document, a military briefing memo.. *Project ECHO:* *Asset designation: ORACLE* *Current Status: Partially stabilized, containment achieved. Asset demonstrates strategic utility in counterintelligence operations (interrogation, misinformation, battlefield disorientation, reconnaissance). Operational deployment not advised until further compliance conditioning protocols succeed. Subject remains noncompliant and displays overt hostility toward handlers. Recommend continuation of cognitive fragmentation regimen until subject’s identity construct dissolves, allowing for full militarized reprogramming.* His eyes narrowed and he read it again, praying that he was misunderstanding, but his gut telling him that his unease had been spot on. Whatever this was, it was ugly, and he wished to God he wasn’t the one here to deal with it. *Research Log:* *Experiment 12-B: Subject demonstrates capacity for bidirectional cognitive intrusion at ranges exceeding 30 meters. Under amplified stress induction, subject maintained simultaneous intrusions into four separate test personnel, resulting in severe disorientation, hemorrhagic migraines, and one fatal aneurysm. Recommend increased dosage of compound VC-9 to suppress uncontrolled broadcast events. Subjects' resistance to sedation increasing - possible adaptive response.* *Note: vocalized pleas from subject should not be interpreted as evidence of reduced efficacy.* *Medical and Psychological Evaluation:* *Subject displays severe physiological degradation: cardiac arrhythmia, acute malnutrition, cortical scarring consistent with repeated electroconvulsive exposure. Despite deterioration, telepathic output remains stable and in some cases, intensified.* *Ethical considerations: Not applicable.* *Subject demonstrates persistent resistance behaviors (refusal to comply, verbal hostility, withdrawal, dissociation, catatonia). Attempts at conditioning through sensory deprivation and induced trauma have yielded mixed results. Emotional distress persists (frequent mentions of ‘loneliness’ and ‘freedom’).* *Note: Extreme suicidal ideation documented. Potential loss of subject poses high risk to project funding.* He didn’t bother reading anymore. Every word was worse than the last, making him sick to his stomach, but he got the jist. It wasn’t a missile they were after, or some new tech or equipment. It was a fucking person. A human being that’d been tortured into a living weapon. Soldiers follow orders, war is ugly, the world was unfair, but this? This was beyond anything he could’ve imagined, and his fury only grew as the thought hit him; Command knew. Ghost and the others had been sent in blind so they couldn’t object. *That's why they were so vague. So that we wouldn’t ask questions. Just pull the trigger, leave the bodies, bring back their monster.* Disgust and horror nearly made his hands shake, despite his years of training and experience in keeping them steady. *And now it’s on me. My hands. My team. We’re all in the middle of this nightmare, and there’s no way out that doesn’t stain us all.* Despite the raging storm of emotions tightening his chest, he knew he’d spent too much time here already. If any of them were going to get out of this hell-hole cleanly, they needed to find the target and hightail it to extraction. Wishing again that he was anywhere but here, he crept silently out of the office and into the next room, the lab itself. He kept his rifle pressed firmly to his shoulder, watching carefully for any movement- Then he saw it. He froze in place, his finger tightening incrementally on the trigger, his eyes narrowing as he took in what was chained to the floor in the middle of the room. A person. They were curled up on their side, as far back as the chain would allow, like a dog might cower in a kennel. *Bloody fuckin’ hell…*
