<Anonymous>: Do you think they’re beginning to suspect anything?

<Patrick W.>: I don’t know. It’s very hard to say, since we do not have any extra information at this time. However, I can report that we have located a few places across the nation where we can build strongholds in preparation for the planned proceedings.

<Anonymous>: Good. We don’t have much time left. I’d like to ask you about your progress. What have you and the others done before shutting down at Four Crosses?

<Patrick W.>: After launching our first day of operations on April 15th, 2012, we assembled several groups of teams with their own responsibilities and duties. We set up the basement of Four Crosses as a fallout shelter and have kept the gifted ones hidden there. In the main chapel, we grouped together two teams both dealing with interpersonal relations and technological research. We’ve been busy cracking the satellite network to find what we can about the government’s operations.

<Anonymous>: And the others?

<Patrick W.>: As much as I have spent with those who are curious to what may happen, I’ve sat down with them and told them what will happen if we do not succeed. However, they’ve shown trustworthy growth in combat training from one of our others. He seems to be keeping them together as well, while I have been busy.

<Anonymous>: What have you been doing?

<Patrick W.>: Trying to keep it together. I didn’t ask for this, but the more real it becomes, the more harder it becomes to accept. But I am prepared in the case of an actual extinction level event to survive as much as anyone else. However, I am unsure if this E.L.E. is nuclear-based or not. I keep seeing it in my sleep over and over. I am sorry if I cause any concern to you.

<Anonymous>: It is okay. I am not concerned about your mental health at this present time. I would be more worried when the extinction occurs. As for your doubts and disbeliefs, I can understand. We were not expecting this to blindside us like this 10 years ago, but since it has, we have had no choice but to band together and prepare ourselves for the worst. Seems most of it has already happened, and the rest is due to follow.

<Patrick W.>: Well, we have abandoned Four Crosses in search of another location. A larger facility so we can group together larger and grow stronger. I can’t tell you of our location because I believe this line is insecure, however I wish to ask you of your next command to follow before we cross our paths at the end of the summer.

<Anonymous>: You will continue to be in charge at the next outpost. Make sure you acquire what you can from any computer stores to help enhance your stealth as to not get caught. Outline a plan of defense or escape as required. At the next outpost, I also want you to quicken your combat training and interact more with the gifted. There is a new gifted person you will meet who will help you make things a little more clearer. Report back to me in 4 weeks. I will try to communicate with you through the satellite feeds on a secure link. One of the trainees with you right now has a piece of paper in her belongings with the date and time, security passcode, and file information. Ask your group to speak to code name Synthia, and she will have the answers.

<Patrick W.>: Thank you for your help. I ask that if I do not contact you in 4 weeks that you turn to another appointed hopeful of the future, and ask them to try to guide you through this. I only ask you of this because I know there is a remote chance that it can be prevented, and it still is a chance you should not pass up.

<Anonymous>: I am aware. Please make sure you have taken notes of this conversation and remember them, because once I hang up, I have to run again to avoid being found by them. And one last thing I’d like to ask of you, is to talk to the gifted at the least if you begin having relapses.

<Patrick W.>: I can’t promise anything, but I will try my best.

<Anonymous>: Then my conversation is completed. We will speak again.

The suspect we believe is the real mastermind behind every reason that our actions have repeatedly ended in failure to suppress these groups. We were believed to have taken out the ringleaders just years ago. The person whom they have been in contact with appears to be questioning his position within the group at times and suffers from a chronologically triggered form of depression. He seems to be acting as the leader to help the person in question hide from our surveillance. We need to compile a dossier of the named informant and any current known associates. Our mission is to locate the named suspect and gather any intelligence possible to locate their mastermind before this situation gets out of control.

We have as well prepared for any insurgence on any metropolitan city and the nation’s capital. As long as this group is operating in a spread out manner, we have a more likely chance of finding other members who can lead us to these two people. We have forwarded the audio recording to a facility in Los Angeles to play back and confirm positive identity on the unnamed suspect.

This report is classified as Code Red #071644 and is to be archived on November 31st, 2012. Until then, it is an Active Operations document and must remain on our public servers on land to maintain top secret.

They thought they had us figured out. We had been forming for years ever since they stripped us of our rights. We were on the run ever since country-wide mandatory laws were put into place to prevent us from accepting their extreme beliefs that religious ideals would rule the world and guide us to a new realm of living.

My name is Patrick Wright. I was born in Sacramento County in 1981, just 20 years before everything began to fall apart. My life as it was destined to unfold, has taken me from being blind of the world around me to leading the blind to the truth. When I left my parents in New York City to pursue a college education in Oregon, I did not know that I would shortly after be on the run. I’ve been living off the grid for over 10 years now, hoping they would never find me or never will. I’ve met many strangers on my travels across the country searching for a place to comfortably call my home and live out a regular life to the best applicable standard possible.

However, I was unaware that somewhere in the middle, I would be led to a group of people who have been searching for me the entire time. The group of people who called themselves “The Rapture of Hope”. Disbelieving in all religions, distrusting of the society built around them, and bonded together with mutual persuasion to follow everything to the end, these people were more human than the enslaved drones that made up over 85% of the population as of this date. Their primary focus has been finding anyone who had physical or mental gifts and ask for their help and guidance in the cause to end the fear. Some people hold the cure for common diseases, some know how to treat viral infections. For others, some know the future as far out as the subconscious mind could see, while others felt more than thought.

Our allies grow every day in numbers and in strength. We fight to eliminate any internal weaknesses to prevent ourselves from being exposed and taken down.

However, the only weakness that will always exist and not be known, I fear, is with me. I’ve been hailed by these people as one of the highest ranks, almost like if I die, everything ends. It is too much pressure for me to tolerate, but every time it comes back to tear me down, I keep fighting it off the best that I can, or seek advice from the gifted ones. I can admit that I am wise beyond my years, but I am not strong enough to handle the reality that is about to unfold.

Everyone has been speaking about the numerous outcomes and possibilities of the 2012 event due to take place later this year. It has been the center of attention to the interested for many years, and it is finally close enough to find out. However, we’re in a very precarious time. Our government has turned it’s back on it’s people and has given more power to the cultists, and obedience is virtually beaten out of anyone who has graduated from high school or has been emancipated prior to the age of 18. Many rules have been changed to benefit the standard of those who run this country. All things said and done have created a pooling effect which by the end of this year, is due to overflow.

When we reach that point, my bet is an extinction level event wiping out human life if not entirely, on a severe scale, and also including most living plants and mammals, and mutating any aquatic life forms if most water bodies survive.

But this is our plan. We are here to prevent it.

The question is: Are we too late?

The answer, according to the gifted: “it isn’t too early to say it’s too late”.

My worry is, that this has gone on for far too long. However, you also do not know what has happened before this transmission, and what is about to happen shortly after it. If you are living in the aftermath, I wish I could tell you more. You will have to locate other literature in which I have been placing in the satellite since I returned to the surface. Please do not think of this as crazy, but learn of the history of what we were born into, and what we are facing.
