Chapter 7 - The Revelation
John's grief slowly gave way to determination.
He scoured Karl's facility, searching for answers
A hidden safe, concealed behind a shelf.
Karl's voice echoed in his mind.
"In case of emergency, look here."
John's heart raced.
Combination lock.
Karl's birthday.
The safe creaked open.
Files, documents, recordings.
John's eyes widened.
Project Erebus.
Classified research.
Karl's notes.
"Stephen's involvement."
"Dangerous consequences."
"Can't trust anyone."
A cryptic message.
"Echo-12. The truth lies within."
John's mind reeled.
What was Project Erebus?
What did Karl uncover?
Why did Stephen kill him?
The police investigation.
Was it related?
John knew he had to dig deeper.
John delved deeper into the files.
Project Erebus's true purpose.
Genetic engineering.
Creating hybrid species.
Human and aquatic DNA.
The implications stunned John.
Karl's warnings.
"Uncontrollable consequences."
"Threat to humanity."
Echo-12.
A specific experiment.
Karl's recordings revealed.
"Stephen pushed for faster results."
"I warned him of the dangers."
"Too late now."
John's anger grew.
Stephen's greed.
Karl's murder.
The police investigation.
John knew he had to share.
But who could he trust?
Officer Jameson?
Or was he in on it?
John decided.
To gather more evidence.
Confront Stephen.
Demand answers.
The stakes rose.
John's determination hardened.
For Uncle Karl.
For the truth.
