The untold story of war                                  

Hello, my name is Edward all you need to know is that I'm an urban explorer or at least I was one you see my friends and I heard about the abandoned lab that was used in the cold war not too far from our hometown it called Cascadia.

People say and believe that it is haunted or it was used for a horrible experiment on the soldiers. After being the absolute geniuses that we are we decided to check it out the lab was a couple of hours away. so, we decided to pack our stuff & get going after about two or three hours of driving we finally arrived at an entrance and there is a large gate that seemed to have been broken down and near it was a restricted area signboard.

We got out of the car since we wouldn’t be able to get past the gate and we decided to look around about 20 feet past the gate was guard post was in pretty bad shape although you can’t expect something that has been abandoned for six decades to be in great condition.

My friends and I  got over the gate which is pretty easy since it was bent to the ground when we looked around and saw the lab it was a fairly large building that looked like it had seen better days.

Surrounding it was a bunch of trees. we are near a forest so that’s to be expected. However, there were what looked like a skeleton scattered all over the road leading up to the building we dint think much of it. since we thought some kind of a prank.

We moved forward to the entrance and the door was busted open with the skeleton laying on the ground near it what was weird was that the skeleton was split in half and there was a dried black puddle under it.

On seeing it I was kind of creeped out but one of my friends said not to worry. On hearing this I calmed down a little and we went in as soon as went in we could see nothing but destroyed equipment dismembered skeletons and there was the smell of death that surrounded the building.

 We all felt uneasy gagged the light it dint work so natural light from the sun entire flashlight were the only source of light that we had after we collected ourselves I had a second thought about this I told my friends that I don’t think we should be here and we should probably just get-go but they just looked at me and told me not to be such a baby man lets go I got upset and hesitantly agreed to continue.  We looked around the place and saw nothing but destroyed equipment the interior was the darkroom had a few hallways that each ended in a turn and the middle was an entrance into the lab we looked in the lab and saw more skeletons and equipment.

I decided to go to one of the hallways and at the end, I entered what looked to be an area where people who worked there rested it was a small room with eight beds and a single desk I looked at the desk and I saw a journal. It belongs to one of the scientists I opened it and read some pages since the book was so old some pages were missing and the ink seems to be gotten messed up somehow I tell you all what the journal said it read as follows.

August 12^th 1964 My name is Dr Michael Swanson and I’m egg head as people like to call me I’m writing in this journal so I can track our progress on project pariah we are tasked with creating a new breed of soldiers who will surpass those comics guys in every way shape and form we are a small team of eight consisting of myself Dr Alan Mccoy, Dr Damian smith, and there three armed guards I admit that we have our work cut out for us it’s going to be difficult to create a new breed of soldiers but I believe it all works out with a bit of American ingenuity.

On August 16^th 1964 we finally got our subject after four days and we were supposed to get them earlier but something happened they had to delay it better late than never I guess. Our subjects consist of three soldiers all three were injured during the battle our goal is to figure out how to make this injured man into killing machines again and easier said than done honestly.

August 20^th 1964 things have not been going well these last few days one of our subjects got sick somehow and had to be taken to hospital and so stuck in our work with the two subjects now and we can’t figure out this dang formula I swear I’m starting to think something is trying to stop us.

August 27^th 1964 still nothing we tried everything we could think of and still nothing the one formula we tried on a subject only puts him in a fit of extreme rage and he ripped on Alex’s handoff. So, we’re down a team member now how can we be this unlucky.

September 7^th 1964 I can’t take this anymore nothing we tried has worked so far what could we possibly be doing wrong at this rate it would be better to just end this project and go nuke Russia they want to nuke us so I say let's just do it to them before they have a chance to do it to us.

On September 17^th 1964 we finally did it we created super soldiers after fellow times we decided to use a chemical that we used back in world war 2 and by god our subjects not only became very healthy but any wounds they sustained were gone we running more tests right now but things seem very positive.

September 20^th 1964 so it seems our two subjects have gained increased strength speed and intelligence we put them against our guards who were highly trained in close quarters combat then they got kicked by the subjects one of our guards had his jaw broken in arms nearly ripped off and were sent to the hospital but its small loss for the progress.

September 23^rd 1964 dear god it seems the subjects can transform on the genetic level we spotted them turning their arms into various things such as claws or a giant blade is truly amazing with soldiers like this we can win this war very easily we are going to collect the samples and send them to Washington too. So, they can do their analysis.

September 24^th 1964 something is wrong the subjects are acting extremely strange they haven’t moved an inch all day and they won’t talk to us there also seems to be this strange red mist surrounding the room we gonna send in the guards to check out what’s going on.

Oh god something happened as soon as we opened the doors they attacked the guards one of them freaking ate a guard he bashed the guard's head into the floor and weird stuff came out of the subject and pulled the guard's body inside his own we locked ourselves in the room and backup is on the way now please let them arrive soon.

The time is 11:32 pm the subjects keep insulting us and told us that if we don’t come out then they would come in but we soon heard a man telling them to get on the ground there was gunfire soon after and then silence I looked up and saw the mangled bodies of our only backup all of them were dead except for the subjects it seems like this is the end of the line for us we are going to die. We had stopped when we had the chance and that was the last entry.

  It seems like some sort of experiment went on here and ended it terribly after I finished reading the journal I decided to keep it and I called for my friends but there was only silence I called them again nothing I was getting annoyed since I thought they were pranking me and told them that they better stop them because it isn’t funny I went back into main hallway and I looked at my watch and saw that it was 11:32 pm, I couldn’t believe that much time has passed and I called for my friends one more time still silence and I turned on my flashlight and decided to look around after a couples of minutes of yelling and looking I found one of my friends backpack laying on the ground covered in blood I was getting concerned and I looked around some where I entered the lab again what I saw absolutely shocked me I saw what looked like a seven foot tall man with claws for hands holding my friends mangled body he noticed me and turned around his face looked so young yet so old his eyes were red and he just smiled at me I still remembered what he said to me oh! Another one here is infiltrated or based this won't do it all get him, boy, he yelled after that the skeletons started to violently shake flesh and skin has started to grow back on them and they eventually got up they were decayed at brainless shells of human beings and I was scared out of my mind I screamed and ran out of the building as fast as I could but those things I grabbed a tree bench and tried hitting them as hard as I could luckily it worked well so as I made my way to the car I kept taking as many of them out I could I eventually made it to my vehicle and drove away as fast I could. I don’t know how the heck I survived that but I'm glad I did a few days passed and started noticing something a lot of people in my town are acting strange almost like something had come over the town and it affected everyone but that’s when I realized one of theses subjects had found me I looked around and I saw him he was standing in the tree line near my house he smiled and turned into my friend I was terrified I tried to go to the police but they dint believe me no one believed me not even my parents they thought that I was trying to pull some stupid prank on them and now the only thing I can do is explained what happened here I know that they are coming for me and they will be here soon I just don’t want to give that thing the satisfaction of taking me out ….
