If this piece of paper is to ever be seen by another human being, I'll be thankful because it means that something went right for once. At this very moment the world is not what we once knew it as, but it you're reading this then you already know that. My name is Fen and I am a monster; this I am sure of. They changed me into a monster. With the threat of chaos and mass destruction lingering above there was no other option than to find a reliable plan; reliable did not mean practical, sane or humane. Like rabid animals, the quickest solution became the only one set in their sights and they ran with it. Who? Human kind. Why? Because they were scared. Fear drives individuals to the brink and when you push a rabid animal into a corner, they will go to the utmost of extremities to live. People fight for their lives even in a world where livelihood no longer exists. All that mattered was survival, even if survival was a broken wasteland with no hope or true life remaining.

I know that I went into this believing that it was for the greater good, but now all I believe is that these people have turned me into something that I cannot hide myself from. This world holds nothing more for me, and at this very moment I know what I am truly capable of. They made me a threat and whilst doing so, they created the unimaginable. I wish things could be different. I wish that I could save the world, but I can't. I guess I'm hoping that something will change my mind or maybe I'll wake up from this terrible nightmare. I hope someone can read this one day; that way someone can know that there was still a human inside of me and he was just as scared as everyone else.

Sincerely, Fen
