In the superior most of our body, deep into our skull, lies a huge clump of tissue made of interconnected nerve cells. The brain. The brain serves as our center of mental and motor processes. Without it, we would be like the dead. It's the most vital organ in our system, but it's the one that is not fully understood. Since the beginning of time, many mysteries have been hidden inside our brains, waiting to be discovered and understood. But despite the difficulty and dedication of experts, they still fail to uncover its hidden secrets. Well, not for long. A private group of scientists experimented intending to unlock the remaining capacity of the human brain. All they wanted was to know, but what they did was to reveal. Despite their success in discovering and exposing its secrets, the world became closer to danger. A danger they unintentionally unleashed.

The Mindbender's Journey

I've been playing tag with this behemoth for an hour now. My body was starting to weaken, my legs aching from constant running and dodging its attacks, as were my hands, working tirelessly to both defend and strike. I wrapped the glass tube with a metal sheet to protect it from getting shattered. The equipment inside the factory was already in disarray, and the floor was stained with blood from the tentacles I severed. I could hear vehicles outside and the noise of a helicopter. If I'm not mistaken, those are the police. If they're here to help, well, they won't be able to do anything. Their guns are ineffective. 


I glanced again at the monster, seemingly preoccupied. Its body waved in a rhythmic pattern, resembling a larva eager to break free from its cocoon. 


Don't tell me it's really going to come out.
