A Letter Written By LUCIE
Hello, beloved reader,
today, I will be your narrator through this wold of mischief, dravons, elves, dwarves and all sorts of creatures and whacky charachers ! So, fear not ; as of today, no shenanigans shall take pla-
“Get back here, you long-eared buffoon!”
-“I don't think I will!”
“Give me my brother back too !”
Sigh...why do I bother? Alright, let me introduce you to our chaotic trio.
The woman yelling to get her brother back is Aki, the crown princess.
The man running away is the elven prince, Ruby.
And the brother is question, who is getting kidnapped, is Ako, the crown prince.
And don't mind the fact that no one seems to have any reaction at all, they're used to it, it happens at least once a week.
“I'll make sure you regret it!” Aki yells in anger as she chases Ruby through the forest like a hungry hound.
“You'll have to catch me first!” Ruby says as he runs away with Ako in his arms.
Aki eventually manages to corner Ruby and proceeds to kick is ass with a nearby … tree trunk.
“Are you okay, Prince Ruby?” Ako asks, checking if Ruby is alive (he, thankfully, is). Ako is then softly picked up by his sister, who turns around and marches off, leaving Ruby injured on the ground.
“No! let me go! Or at least, take Ruby too!” Ako says, kicking like a little toddler whining for a piece of candy.
“Why should I?” Aki asks him, being the adult in the situation (despite the fact that she just almost split Ruby's head).
“Because if you don't, I'll be annoying!” Yeah, either oblige or have a whiny twink (that's slang, your dear learned narrator) on the way back home, take your pick, Hon.
Exasperated by her brother's attitude, she relents. “Fine.”
Since she doesn't want to hear her twink of a brother complaining and throwing a tantrum, she also picks Ruby up and carries him like a sack of potatoes. “ But I hope you know that after this you're never seeing that guy again.” But she knows that it won't be the las time, since Ako always finds a way to meet with Ruby.
“Plus, Mom and Dad already found you a princess to marry.”
“What?!”
Akis is … upset to put it mildly … if you want me to be frank … she is furious, throwing a tantrum about the fact that he doesn't want to marry this princess he doesn't know (which, in my opinion, is completely fair … but it's his voice agains his parents').
“Stop whining, Ako.”
Aki is trying to stay calm and not knock him out, he is so noisy ! But she just keeps walking until she reaches the castle…
What? You expected more? Sorry, beloved reader, but it's time for yours truly to clock out! See ya!

A Review of Elephant Man by Mazigh - 2024
I found this film very moving and sad because the story is so tragic. The main character is a circus freak, suffering from severe and highly visible physical deformities, but the viewer is drawn to feel affection for this character, Joseph Merrick.
I was frightened when a doctor met him and bought him from hiws owner. But I was reassured when I realised that this doctor was actually sheltereing him and discovered in Joseph a very intelligent and sensitive being. I was frustrated when he was unwillingly removed from the hospital to become a show animal once again. Fortunately, I was relieved when he escaped with the help of others. I found the ending of this film very beautiful, because eventhough Joseph Merrick dies, he ends up free, fulfilling his dream of sleeping like a human being.

A review of Elephant Man by Malek - 2024
Elephant Man tells the story of Joseph Merrick, a man with a rare condition that deforms his body. The film explores the themes of differences, self-acceptance and compassion. The performers, especially John Hurt as Merrick, are incredible. David Lynch’s direction is remarkable. I highly recommend watching it if you enjoy powerful and emotional stories.

A review of Elephant Man by Hala - 2024
Elephant Man is a drama released in 1980. This film tells the story of an « elephant man », who is used as a freak in a fair, so that his « owner » can make money. He will be found by a great surgeon, Frederick Treves ? ??? who will want to study him in order to learn more about the « creature ». he will host him at the hospital where he works and allow him to live a « normal » life until the moment when Merrick decides to sleep in the way he has always wanted to, on his back. This is the moment when he dies. In the film we can see that he is mistreated and how he is regarded by other people. It aslo includes suffering and his desire to be considered as a human being. Personally, I found this film interesting, p articularly so in relation to tolerance, which is an important topic in the film.

The Meetings, a short story by Emilie
There are some memories that we kept in our brain, the sort of memories that you think of in a difficult moment and have the same effects that a cup of a hot and sweet tea. In these moments I like to think of the way my mother used to sit on my bed at night time, when she used to kiss my forehead and tell me how it was when she was my age. And I was listening, carefully, saving all the details, I loved the way she smiles when she was telling me how beautiful it was or the way everyone, even her, was partying, every night, there are images that I kept watching silently in my head. She told me that their names were Leah and Jack.” “That aren’t surprising names” I said
“They did everything they can to make them exactly like us.” That wasn’t necessary, everyone knew exactly how they look like. The firsts robots to be declared citizens of the United States of America were considered as the biggest stars we’ve ever seen. Mom used to tell me that it was wonderful, everything was great, during months life seems easier and that is where she used to stop her story. One day, she has been called to take part of the first meeting, this how they call that “a meeting”, and this day she told me the rest of the story. Robbery, murders and crimes in a massive quantity everywhere in the world, the worst was that we hadn’t any culprit, no proof and no fingerprints. We can say today that it was the robot’s fault but at time everyone denied it. Mom explained me that the more the time advanced the more the robots developed a conscience and realised the power they held. And the crimes didn’t stop until the creation of the first meeting. The rules of the meetings were simple, every human citizen that was thirteen years old or more must do it once in their life. The best engineers of the United States of America worked hard to create multiple types of robots that had the objective to kill us in anyway, even if they win, they will be destroyed at the end of the meeting. We all have a case that contain a lot of information about ourselves, our school grades, our sports capacity and more, from this data the engineers’ created robots in our image with which we were able to fight. The point of the meetings is simple, it was the only way that government found to remind robot their place in society and if they don’t respect it they will be killed. At our thirteen years and two days my twin sister Neo and I received it, the summons. They took our mother and they sent us this letter. I bring it to Neo who was sleeping. It’s been a month that it’s her main activity. The pollution in the air, the sickness of being at the head of a family at thirteen years old we didn’t know the source of her problem and why she needs to be in bed all day. She used to be the best in everything, excellent in sports, amazing grades she could hypnotize anyone with her light hazel eyes, our mother had the same enchanting eyes but Neo’s one doesn’t shine anymore. I am the opposite of her, that’s why I wasn’t worried for the meetings, my grades are so bad and everything that I do turn wrong I will probably have a tiny robot that has to scare me more than kill me. For Neo it was different she will probably face a colossal machine, the old version of herself wouldn’t have any problem with that but what about the version of herself that she is today?
The meetings were happening one week after the letter arrival. And the days have passed in a blink of an eye. Hundreds of cold benches were lined up and seemed to heighten general anxiety. Next to me Neo was shaking silently. We waited the longest thirty minutes of my life and we saw it, my blood froze and stopped circulate in my body, a massive robot, two times bigger than us walked slowly looking straight ahead. Two seconds after that a harsh and squeaky voice called the sweet and fragile Neo. I looked straight in her eyes, a shiver ran through me and without waiting another minute I get up and walked up to the man who was announcing the names, he pointed me out the door the monster had surrendered a few minutes before that. I looked at my sister one last time and felt all my love for her run through my veins.
I opened the door and the only things that I saw was its light hazel enchanting eyes.

The Unruly, a short story by Fella
After the 2020s, the whole world found itself weakened, and for good reason: a pandemic that lasted more than 10 years.
After that, heavy tension appeared between the different countries of the globe, pushing everyone to break their ties, their alliances and to isolate themselves completely.
On October 24, 2103, the united and China, for a joint project, decided to become an ally. This rapprochement between the two powers multiplies tensions to the point of causing what is called today: the last world war.
This confrontation between all countries lasted nearly 40 years and he was arrested after a huge nuclear explosion that destroyed half of the population and made some part of the earth completely uninhabitable
The PCH system, More commonly known as the "system of power, control and happiness", is the creation of a Franco-American billionaire named Spencer Martin and this system is supposed to represent new human values, it is it that must now be defended and protected at all costs to avoid once again finding ourselves in chaos.
But that's the beautiful version of things.
In reality, man has abandoned his right to choose who governs and directs him, he now has no free will, The human has become a pawn in the middle of a game for the wealthiest in this world.
Power is the PCH system
Control is the domination of the system over man. At birth, the human being finds himself with a chip injected into the blow. This chip allows the PCH system to have all humanity under its control and that's how he claims to guarantee: Happiness and peace
This chip keeps the population under control but it also provides powers to humans, powers that allow them to fulfill their duties in each of their factions.
Except that at puberty, this human flea program is weakened, and the two case is available to us:
Either the individual does not succumb to his feelings and desires for revolt caused by this period of adolescence and he continues to live his life peacefully
Or, in a rarer case, the individual breaks this flea because his emotions are stronger, and in this case the system pursues him until it causes his death….
Individuals who break this chip represent a real danger to the government, because they become humans with incredible powers but over whom no one has control.
They are called « the unruly ».
Hope White is a young American woman who has been prosecuted for years now because she is the first unruly in the program.
Over time, she created a team to identify unruly people, so that she could protect them and teach them the management of their powers.
As for me, my name is Orna Adams, and I am the last unruly found.
In my generation we are only 6 unruly people, and for the most part we do not know what is happening or how to control our powers, but all we know is that humanity is at stake and to be able to save it we will have to learn to control ourselves, otherwise the system will find us and we will all perish.
Our goal is clear, to destroy the system, but to destroy it we will have to be part of it. Because as they say, "it's from within we destroy things better"
The particularity of the human being Faced with other species It has always been that man has a consciousness, feelings, and for the luckiest free will.
But what happens when individuals find themselves devoid of their particularity? And what happens when it's the opposite? When do their feelings represent a danger if they do not know how to control their powers?
To find out, we will have to follow us!

Nano Academy, a short story by Bettie
The story I’m going to tell you happened to me in 2050, our world was in a bad condition.
It was ruled by one crazy man named Polemos , he invented robots but not in a good way : they were as crazy as him and dangerous for humans who were against his ideas. I was against his ideas, my family too, but we were afraid to show it. All the humans who were remaining alive, lived in the same continents, Europe, while Polemos and his soldiers lived in America, the other continents were left aside for the robots, it was the most dangerous place...
I chose to fight and was one of the chosen in Nano’s academy, a hidden school, where teenagers like me learn who to fight these robots.
My name is Stratia and I’m going to tell you my story
Chapter 1 :
Finaly ! I have prepared for 1 year for this day, I have to say that I’m a bit stressed to know that I’m going to enter this academy where I would save the world, a dream since I’ve been a little girl.
This terrible man killed my brother a long time ago because he was against his crazy and horrible ideas. It is my time to revenge him, my real dream was to killed Polemos by my own hands.
« How much time is left ? » I ask my mum because I couldn’t wait until we arrived…
« Very soon, little one… » said my mother, she is a small middle-aged woman, she always wanted me to be happy, even if she is scared of me going to this academy, she trusts me and knows I’m going to revenge my brother.
My head is resting on the flange of the car window and my blond hair is floating in the air ; it is cold and unpleasant but I stay because my life is going to become harder than all of these ridiculous things. In my head, I am telling myself that maybe I will die and that I couldn’t survive in this new life… Maybe I am not capable but I have to be self-confident ; if not, I will be expelled from Nano and I will be remiss all my life !
I used to live in France all my life I was afraid to take the tunnel under the English Channel because the academy is based in the UK. that means there would be a lot of different nationalities from different countries in all Europe but I am friendly I don’t think it would be complicated for me to make friends. I already miss my French friends but they were so happy for me to take this step and to face my fear.
Finally, I can see the big tunnel it looks like a monster ready to eat us, they are so many car like if everyone are going to the same place near I could see Polemo’s soldiers, my only desire is right now to kill them but I’m not ready yet, if they know where we are going to, we would have been killed for betrayal and conspiracy, well that what we do actually but whatever it’s for a good cause…
Suddenly, two soldiers came near to our car for a moment I got scared but my mom seems to be confident
« Where are you papers » ask one of the soldier, my mom give it to him but he isn’t done
« where are you going like that sweetie »
I look at him with disgusted eyes, I just want to put a gun in his fucking mouth so that he could shut up… But my mom remain very calm and answer with a courtesy.
« Oh we are just going to see my aunt, you know she is very old she needs to have company before she dies… » My mother is the best liar that I have ever seen, I love her so much she is going to miss me…
The disgusting soldier let us pass with his ridiculous smirk.
Inside the tunnel there are no natural light, only the car headlight, I got a headache because of this and lay down on the flange of the car so that I could rest and don’t show my problem, it’s a sign of weakness and it’s something that can penalize me…
after 30 minutes of tunnel we finaly get out of this and I can see the natural light, we have still 1 hour before arriving.
It is complicated to find indication about where the academy is based because the government must not find it, the school send us on our phone after a long time where it is located .
The roads are complicated to access but we finaly did it. Nano is an incredible school, it is an old big castel of a gothic kind. I have to say that I am very impressed which make me even more stressed…
I go out of the car with my mom, there are a lots of other teenagers, at this moment I know I’m not the only one who takes a new start which reassures me a lot.
« how do you feel » my mom said, I don’t very know how I feel right now, I don’t want to tell her that I’m very scared and that I feel so weak in front of all of this. Suddenly, an old man with a stern look went out of the big academy, everyone stop talking and shout,
« Hai », I don’t understand at first why everyone scream that…
« Isn’t it a japanese word, why do they say that ? » I ask my mother
« It’s because he is a japanese master and he wants you to follow his order if you don’t act like a real warrior you would be in trouble, but tell me Stratia did you read the rule about the school »
I know I forgot something, it was the most important thing to do…
« well, quickly done… » I sigh, I didn’t of course, I’m a good liar too.
« It is time for you to take a new start, from now your job will be to fight and to protect the world, if you are already scared you can leave this place, here we do not want fearful, we want brave person who are ready to fight even if they had to give up their lives there ! » he said
this man impresses me, he is as impressive as his big house.
« It is now time for the parents to leave and you to come inside in order to know your apartments and to visits where you would learn. »
I look at my mother, I understand at this moment that maybe I would never see her again…
« You are going to miss me little one… » I looked at her, and for the first time her eyes are wet with tears so I decided to take her in my arm, it is weird to see my mother crying because of me that mean she really care for me so people can care for me ? It’s not just a dream it is a reality…
I take a look a last time at the car leaving the court and now it’s my turn to get catch by a sob.
I hide my eyes no one has to see this sign of weakness and especially not the master it has to be the last day for my tears to escape my eyes.
I remain here alone with no one by my side but only my suitcase with some stuff inside, anyway I would have a uniform I guess.
« Time to get inside soldier » Soldier I think, is this going to be my new name I will no be called Stratia anymore, would I ?
The inside of the academy was more impressive than the castel itself, everything inside is old and gothic. We can see different weapons hang on the wall, that mean I’m going to use one of them and fight with it…
« Now, the elders are going to take you to your bedrooms wait until your name is called »
I am one of the first called, a girl maybe two years older than me show me my room, it is classic and the beds seems very uncomfortable but anyway I’m not here to take a rest, later two other girls join me in the room, one is a tall redhead with beautiful eyes and the other one is smaller but has beautiful dark hair and a pretty face.
« Hey what’s your name » I ask, maybe they know eachother or maybe not.
The dark haired girl come near and sit next to me on the bed I choose,
« Hey you can call me Gaia » she says with a big smile she is even more pretty like that, suddenly I feel safe. I tell them my name and Gaia ask me a lots of question about it.
But the other doesn’t seems to be happy she looks at us with a haughty look which make a cold atmoshere. I try to relax the tension,
« So do you guys know eachother ? » I ask nicely
« No we don’t and I don’t really want to know anyone here » the redhead girl says
I have a feeling that this one is going to get on my nerves but I stay calm and Gaia speak up :
« Your name is Maya right ? I heard it I very like your name it’s from ancient Greek like mine »
She doesn’t answer and lay down on a bed sighing.
« What a good year ahead » whispered I to Gaia, she laugh and nodded her head.
The next day :
The elders wake us at 7:00 a.m, my eyes are still close but I can’t complain it’s only the first day.
Gaia, Maya and I go down the stairs to the canteen where every students take their breakfast, the room is enormous, everyone is here I supposed. There are not that many of us, we are 200 new student the other are the elders. Gaia and I sit side by side and Maya seems confused, I don’t know if it is a good idea to propose her to come sit with us if it’s for getting snubbed again but anyway she doesn’t take a look at us and sit alone at a table.
« Does that bother you if my friend join us ? » Gaia ask
« What is that question of course she can » I answer, at this moment I know things are going to be fine, the first step to make friend is done ! Not the most complicated but still the most important.
« Yael ! Come with us » yelled Gaia with her big smile, a small girl with beautiful dark hair turn around and come near us, she has glasses and seems a bit shy but very nice.
« Hi my name is Stratia, I love your name » I say
« oh thank you yours is beautiful too »
she sits and start talking about everything, who our life were before, Yael’s life was very moving, her father and her mother died when she was 5 because of their ideas against Polemos, she was raised by her grandmother.
« Your parents were so brave » I say « I admire them »
She looks at me with this sweet smile, I smile back because I know I’m not the only one who lost someone important because of this terrible man.
Suddenly, the master make his apparition, We all get on our feet and shout,
« Hai, master »
« Hai soldier, hope you are ready for your first day because it’s only the begining »
I go back to my room and put my uniform, I have a black pant, a black jacket and boots, it’s really look like a warrior’s ouftit, I love it. I think I would always remember this day, my first day I’m going to learn who to fight and become someone I never thought I will be one day.
« You’re ready Sratia ? We have to join Yael she is waiting for us »
I always take so many time to get ready, of course I can go outside without my eye-liner it’s like a manufacturing bang for me, I know I’m boring but whatever I don’t care.
« Yes you can start going without me »
« You are going to be late for you first day, that not a good thing Stratia… »
I go out of the bathroom and find myself facing Maya, She looks at my makeup with a mocking air.
« Are you seriously going to take you first lesson with this in your eyes, that ridiculous it’s better to be natural… »
« What’s your problem » I ask « Since the beginning you criticize Gaia and I, are you a fan of us or what ? »
Gaia laugh and looks at me with amused eyes. Maya insulted me and leave the room pissed of.
I haven’t say my last word and wanted to scoled but Gaia holds me back.
« she’s not worth it, let it go… » I give up and we decided to go because we realize that we are late and run into the corridor, we finally arrive in a big gymnasium where everyone are already here.
But the master doesn’t see us so we managed to sneak in which is a success.
The elders are training, some of them hit a punching bag, the other train with katana and there are some who use guns and and shoot with it. This is impressive they all seem to be very strong but I understand I would pass by this too. To explain, in this academy if we want to kill robots who are in fact almost invincible, even if we train hard we can’t have the strenght to kill them. That’s why in this academy, a serum was invented, it get into the blood and give us strenght but the thing is that it can’t work with everyone. If the opperation work on you, that mean you would have to train harder because your mission would be harder and dangerous. Otherwise if it’s don’t work on you, you can still train to fight but you can’t do the harder mission, unless you want to die. But there are a lots of other things you can be train for, for exemple :
You can learn who to fly a helicopter, it’s very useful during the mission.
You can be use as a « brain » which means you can prepare the missions, the plans and all…
I am a bit afraid of what I would become but doesn’t matter what I would be I will still be useful.
All the youth enters in the laboratory where we are going to test our blood.
« You are going to be called one by one, it would be fast don’t worry. » the master says.
I guess I’m going to be one of the first called like always that make me even more stressed…
« Are you afraid » I ask to the girl next to me, she is tall and beautiful.
« I think yes but I know it’s in a good way » she answers.
Her name is Anya and I hope she would stay with us after all of this she seems very nice.
After two persons it is my turn to pass…
To be continued…

Carl Johnson, О с в е т а
My name is Bob, I am 27 years old and I come from a small village in Serbia. With two friends, we wanted to go to the new planet discovered in the solar system, Toi 700 d. We wanted to set up our little business there but one day, these two traitors set trap and left without giving me any reason, even though everything was ready. From that day, I promised myself to make them pay for their betrayal.
I met a man named Patrick who also wanted to go to this planet. I explained my whole story to him and he was very understanding and even decided to help me in my quest because he didn't know what he could do on this new planet. Patrick has a similar background and he could see himself in me. He experienced betrayal and hated it in the depths of his soul. If he wanted to leave Earth, it was because he had no longer any reason to stay, he was no longer able to fulfill his revenge and he had no longer any reason to exist. He found in me a reason to live.
After four years of hard work, we were able to pay tickets to, finally, go to this planet. With the new technology, the travel lasted only two years. Meanwhile, we were trying to figure out how to locate the two traitors. I saw a newspaper and learned that one of my former comrads in arms had just been arrested and taken to the nearest prison where the rocket was going to land.
This was my chance. I knew where I had to go. It was in that prison where Dragovic was. I had to go. We managed to steal some weapons belonging to a Russian gang without anyone to see us and we posed as Dragovic's brothers.
It worked. It took severeal minutes to Dragovic to understand who I was and why I had come. It was weird. I didn't understand why he seemed happy to see me. It only increased the hate in me. I then pulled out a gun and pointed it at his forehead. His only response to death was a simple “Sorry.”.
I didn't want to kill him until I found out why he and Dimitri, two of my best friends, had betrayed me like this, over six years ago now. Why did they betray me ? Why me ? I wanted to do great things with them and considered them more than brothers in arms, brothers in blood.
Then I learned the truth. Dragovic had been manipulated from the beginning. Dimitri had made him believe that I was trying to get rid of him, which was not true and it was the cause of his betrayal to me. Dragovic began to doubt his action and asked his friend if he had made the right choice and he assured him that he had. The business they had built together was phenomenally successful. It was so important that it had become one of the biggest companies on the planet Toi 700 d, influencing not only its own planet but also other planets such as Earth and institutions such as the police or the government.
However, Dimitri was power-hungry and wanted an exclusive and total monopoly by being the only supreme ruler. He then accused Dragovic of attempting a coup d'état, which led directly to his arrest and the announcement of his imminent death.
That’s then I made a very important decision, to trust my old friend and allow him to take revenge with me. That’s when Patrick had an idea: he was going to simulate a malaise in order to distract the guards while I force the lock on the cell. It was our only hope to escape.
Fortunately, the plan succeeded, without the cops seeing us escape with him. In the days that followed, a wanted notice was issued to find us. We waited a whole year to get off the radar of the police and then act. After that year of hiding, we had not wasted our time since we had put our plan in place. It consisted of breaking into the headquarter where Dimitri’s office was. Luckily, we had Dragovic who was one of the people who knew the building best.
The long-awaited day had arrived. We were confident and knew that our plan would succeed. We entered through the garbage room, the only entrance that wasn’t monitored by the guards or the cameras. The stars were aligned because there were no guards in the hall. However, the luck was short because as soon as we were in the first floor we had to open fire because a guard recognized Dragovic.
The 104th Division arrived and had us at their mercy. Miraculously, some of his soldiers started shooting at their colleagues and Dragovic understood that some of his comrades also intended to take revenge for the trap set on Dragovic. We continued into the building but when we got to the office there was no one there when suddenly we heard the engine of a helicopter. It was Dimitri who was running away. Dragovic was not worrying, however, because he knew that every helicopter of the company was being followed. We then found out that he had gone to his villa 50 kilometers from here.
We went with all Dragovic’s comrades to the villa, with a new plan already ready: Dragovic’s comrades would take care of the soldiers who were protecting the surroundings with their silencer guns while Patrick, Dragovic and I entered through the sewers. When we got out of the sewers the guards we saw from far did not seem to be on alert, which meant that the plan had worked perfectly. We then decided to enter the villa by climbing the balcony from the only open window. Dragovic and I were searching in the villa while Patrick was on guard in case our infiltration became known.
We rummaged the entire villa. I was overwhelmed. I leaned on a book when suddenly a secret passage opened. We then went down the stairs, always amazed by this discovery. We saw a wooden door and when I pushed it, a bullet penetrated my shoulder. It was Dimitri. That traitor, that coward, that vermin. He shot me a second bullet, then I saw my life flash by and I realized very quickly that my time had come. To top it all off, I couldn’t fulfill my revenge...
That’s when I saw Dragovic jump in front of me and he said, “Thank you for forgiving me брате.". With the adrenaline, the shock and the hatred that consumed me, I no longer felt the pain of the bullet and was even more determined to kill Dimitri. I shot him back and hit a vital point. He said things, but I didn’t care because the problem was somewhere else.
Dragovic had been hit right in the stomach and was losing a lot of blood. He and I understood that his fate was sealed. He then decided to give me the ways to recover his business through various legal subtleties. He said the company owed me by right, so he bequeathed it to me while making sure I wouldn’t have any trouble with the law thanks to his henchmen and his last words. Here’s my story and how Patrick and I became the bosses of the biggest company of Toi 700 d and the universe.

Pilot John Hash
Audio open :
« Test, test… Ok, apperently it work…
My name is John Hash and I am the ship pilot of the exploration ship « PRECURSOR 4 ».
It’s been one since we prepare ourthelves for the first exploration mission on a outer space planet « EWX_805 » … but it is a little bit to long so Sahra the captain of the crew named it « TERRA » … I think it sound great in my opinion.
I’m speaking from the space station « INFINITI-01 ». I‘ve been here for one month now… preparing myself for these mission.
For this mission I’m not alone of course, we will be the fourth crew to land on the planet, but we will for sure the first human on the planet.
We’re just some scientific and our mission is to install some gear and do a little bit of exploration.
Sahra Amosis is the captain of the crew, she is Egyptien and also a good astronomer. Hiromushi Kawa is Japanese and the doctor on the exploration and a good joke maker.
The rest are all scientifics or mechanical engineer like Léo Frühwirt… he will actually help me to land the ship on the surface.
There is also Ethan he’s a genius at his age… he’s gonna take the geological stuff with him… .
The ship is ready, … the engines have been check, the module repairs are now finelly finished and the crew take care of the last details.
I’m feeling great,… in good shape… and every thing is alright for tomorrow.
But … something distract me … I gess it’s because I’m going to an alien planet, full of alien animals and plants … there are beautiful… I’ve seen the images send by the drones and the probes…green orange blue trees with wonderful flowers… different animals… they look similar to the animals we’ve got on Earth.. I mean not the same at all but birds, felin, mammal and no intelligence species again…
but… I don’t know what to expect from these exploration.
What will it bring for human life who almost destoy his own planet with his selfishness.
I guess we will see tomorrow… good night.

« Hi to the one that will here these audio… I’m not gonna tell the storie of the landing because if you have TV on these morning you already see what happen… « PRECUSOR 2 » crash because one of the tank got pierce some how, while enterring the atmosphere…
« PRECUSOR 1 » was on the crash area to see what happen to them but the ship is half there, the rest have been disintegrated while enterring the … atmosphere.
Sorry… I get a little bit emotional because people on this ship were good people…
For now it is the only thing that I can tell you. Like I say, the ship is destroy.
On our side we’ve got lucky, we land on a pretty field, near by a forest.
We don’t have finished to build our base, but everything is opperationnal : the radio, the life supports, the water recycler and the drone perimeter in case a predator wants to approach the camp.
It is not the only thing that happen today… we were building the camp and I got this strange feeling… an unpleasant sensation of being wacht… in secret… but when I lock around us there was nothing exept for this thick forest… so I have take a lock to the drones camera to see if anything was really watching us.
This forest was empty, there was only trees aun flower but no life like an animal or something…
And I’m the only one having this feeling nobody seems to be afraid of this…
A smell also appear… the smell of an old exhaust but I was not the only one to smell it…
Everyone was disgust by this smell.
I’m the only one really thinking about the feeling. I’m exhausted by today and Hiromushi say that I was a little bit traumatize with all the thing that happen today…
But who knows what will happen tomorrow.

« I see it !... when we were on the move it happened again… but this time it was different because this feeling was in accord with the smell…
I was not afraid so I decide to take a look while Ethan aun Léo were repairing the drone…
I simply take a look in the woods to see if something was there and…
I see it right in front of me… this black silhouette moving, I’m sure I see it moving…
But nobody wants to believe me… they all saying that I’m crazy and that was only an animal but I see it face or what look like a face… I’m not sure anymore… I don’t remember… I don’t know…
This planet is crazy and dangerous…
