Things just keep getting worse. It took a couple days, but Wheezer got back to me with the rest of the military transmission he was attempting to intercept. He said it was impossible to get a “clean lock” on the video, so this time there’s only audio. As far as I can tell, it starts right before the last video ended.

I don’t know what to make of all of the screaming at the end, but it sounds like at least one other person was (or is) alive out there. And in a weird way, despite the screaming, I find that prospect reassuring.

If there was one survivor, there could be others… and if that’s true, then my family might be fine. It’s possible that they’ve just been isolated somewhere for their own safety, which could explain why they haven’t been able to contact me.

But in some ways, this scares me even more than the video footage did. If I let myself think about this too much, I might start freaking out again. To be honest, I don’t have the strength left to be scared anymore. Now I just want some answers.

And the first thing to do is to find out who the hell “General Mancheck” is.
