Chapter 3

Then Frank said: So, Mr. Mark, this is your headquarters and your new office. Your work starts from now. There is a report about a strange situation occurring in one of the American states, specifically in the state of Chicago, where citizens say that they hear strange noises coming near the Forest, which is the largest and most famous forest in the state of Chicago. Your job, Mr. Mark, is to go there and find out what caused that sound. I just don't want you, as I told you before, to delve into it so you don't get into trouble that you won't be able to get out of. Our task here is to analyze the problem and find out its cause only. As for the rest of the matters, it is the job of forest officials in the state of Chicago, not our role. Agreed, Mr. Mark? Mark said to him: Okay, Frank, I understand. Let me do my job, and when I finish this case, I'll tell you. Frank said to him: Okay, Mr. Mark. Indeed, Mark went to Chicago in his car, specifically to the houses near the Forest, to begin the mission and discover the secret of those strange sounds. When he arrived, he was surprised by a strange person waiting for him there, so he stopped the car and got out. Then this guy said to me Mark: Hey buddy, how are you? Mark said to him: Who are you? That person said to him: My name is Tom, your new assistant in your missions. Mark said to him: Whoever said that I need assistants, I carry out my tasks myself and in my own way, and I do not need anyone. Tom said to him: Hey, hey, calm down, buddy. I am just your assistant, tell me what you want to do and I will do it with you and help you with it. Try me and believe me, you will like it very much 😂. Mark said to him: But if I see that you are wasting my time, I will call Mr. Martin and ask him to fire you from your job as my assistant. Tom said to him: We agreed, buddy. Let's go explore the paranormal. Indeed, Mark and Tom went to one of the houses near the Forest, and Mark knocked on one of the doors. The owner of the house opened it for them and said: Yes, what do you want? Mark said to him: I am Agent Mark Santos from the MRR Research Headquarters, and I am here, sir, to ask you some questions related to the Forest and the frightening, unidentified sounds that residents hear at night near that forest. The man said to him: Did you say Forest?! Please come in, sir. Indeed, Mark and Tom entered that man's house and sat with him, and the man said to them: My name is Philip Thompson, and I have lived here in this place for more than 30 years. Throughout these years, I have heard voices and seen supernatural things that no human eye has ever seen before, yet I have become so accustomed to these things that I would write down the times they happened every day so that I would not panic if I heard them again and know that these things happening are normal. Mark said to him: When do you hear those voices, Mr. Thompson? He said to him: At night, specifically at twelve midnight, and sometimes at three in the morning. Mark said to him: You just mentioned that you saw strange things. Can you describe to me the appearance of those unknown things? Mr. Thompson said to him: It is a strange creature that does not resemble a human at all.

It is extremely thin, its legs and hands are incredibly long, it has extremely sharp claws that look exactly like a sharp knife, it has two horns, its eyes are completely white, and it has no hair at all. Mark said to him: When did you see him? Mr. Thompson said to him: It was at night, but I do not remember exactly when I saw him, but he was really scary, and I am sure that the frightening sounds that everyone was hearing from the residents of the neighborhood were coming from him. Suddenly, in a frightening way, everyone heard a frightening sound similar to the voice of a wolf, but it was very loud, sharp and very frightening, which greatly frightened Tom. Tom said: What the hell is this? Mr. Thompson said: It is a terrifying creature. Mark and Tom then left the man's house. Tom said to him: Please, Mark, don't tell me that the hell we're going to go to the source of the sound in that haunted forest. Mark said to him: The game has just begun. Hence, it seems that terror and excitement will ignite from the first official mission of Mark and his assistant Tom Fa. I wonder what will happen? This is what we will know in the coming.
