Date: After the Battle
Location: Temporary Hideout

Tonight was... something else.

The battle was chaotic, intense, and dangerous. But we did it. We hit HQ where it hurts, and the message is spreading. More drones are reaching out to us, asking to join the cause. We're no longer just a few rebels hiding in the shadows—we're a movement.

Watching Uzi, Thad, and Lizzy fight, I realized how far we've come. They're strong in ways I never expected, and they're willing to stand beside us, despite the risks. J may still have her doubts, but even she can't deny that this is more than just a phase or a glitch in our systems.

The best part? I think we're actually starting to make a difference. HQ won't ignore us anymore. They'll come after us harder than ever, but I'm not scared. For the first time, I feel like we have a purpose beyond just survival.

Maybe tomorrow we'll find a way to reach even more drones. Maybe we'll even take the fight to HQ itself. But for now, I'm just grateful we made it through the night.

And I think... I'm proud of us. Of all of us.
