Date: First Day of the Revolution
Location: Somewhere safe, for now

I don't even know how to put this into words. We did it. We actually did it.

The broadcast went through, and drones are responding. They're reaching out, asking questions, some of them even joining us. They're scared, confused—just like I was. Just like we all were. But they're also hopeful. For the first time, they're thinking about life beyond orders and missions.

Uzi's talking about organizing a real resistance. She says we can take the fight to HQ, that we can build a world where drones don't have to be afraid. J is still skeptical, and she'll probably never admit it, but I think even she feels it—that spark of purpose, of knowing we're doing something that matters.

I don't know what tomorrow will bring. Maybe HQ will find us and shut us down. Maybe we'll lose everything. But right now, we have each other, and we have a cause worth fighting for.

I'm not just Ch-last, the Disassembly Drone anymore. I'm part of something bigger, something real.

And for the first time... I'm not afraid.
