Screen Shot
Start from the beginning:
 
This transcript follows closely to the termination of the psychological evaluations of five individuals who worked at South Tech labs. All participants in the wake of Project Sacrosanct are under close evaluation by trained professionals. The purpose of releasing these transcripts is to bring to light of the Corruption Cycle to the public and to help build legislation to protect those who suffer from the Corruption Cycle. At no point will these individuals be released into the public until public awareness has been fulfilled. The transcript follows:
 

The subjects name is Daniel Adams. He is male and is about thirty. Daniel is not native to our country but knows our language fluently. He is at stage 4.Minimum of 12 hours. Subjects noticeably lose common sense. Everything is a impulse decision and mental state is erratic. Subjects crave to eat things that doesn’t offer sustenance such as metal or wood and most reasoning is replaced with psychopathic tendencies. The body becomes malnourished as the subject no longer eats to survive. The eyes of the subject are completely pupil. It is evident the pupil is still enlarged but doesn’t take up the entire surface of the eye. The whites and any color of the eye turn black much like the pupil but react differently to light. When asked about what they see, the subjects talk in metaphors and is unable to explain their sight coherently. In order to conduct any research with a stage 4 candidate, security personnel must be present.

 
Daniel: Is there a reason we’re in a different room?
 
Dr. Stanton: In case something goes wrong we will be more prepared on this room
 
Daniel: Something might go wrong? Is that why the security is here? Am I a liability.
 
Dr. Stanton: No. we just know the Corruption Cycle can alter your mood. You’re in stage four now. It’s going to be very difficult to reason.
 
Daniel: I guess I have been more impulsive lately.
 
Dr. Stanton: You seem very calm. Is there any adverse reactions going on right now.
 
Daniel: The voices. They have been numerous but I’ve been able to compartmentalize my thoughts. I can identify what are my thoughts and what the other thoughts are.
 
Dr. Stanton: That’s good! Other than that, how are you feeling?
 
Daniel: Strung out. It feels like I’ve been here forever.
 
Dr. Stanton: We’re at the tail end of the study.
 
Daniel: Does life go back to normal after this? Is there a cure?
 
Dr. Stanton: We are actively looking for one.
 
Daniel: So as far as we know there’s no cure…
 
Dr. Stanton: We’re optimistic.
 
Daniel: Great. What are we doing in this session?
 
Dr. Stanton: I would like to get one more drawing from you. I would like you to draw yourself.
 
Daniel: I don’t really draw people. Places and things are me forte.
 
Dr. Stanton: You don’t have to be good at it. I just want to see how you view yourself.
 
Daniel: I guess that’s okay.
 
Dr. Stanton: what’s your chosen media?
 
Daniel: I would like to do this in charcoal.
 
*Dr. Stanton gets out some materials.*
 
Dr. Stanton: Here you go. Let’s get started.
 
*Daniel starts drawing*
 
Daniel: I’ve been talking to the others. Saralynn and Tate don’t seem their selves. They are locked in some kind of cage in the research lab. Are they okay?
 
Dr. Stanton: They have reached stage five. They have devolved into what we would call insanity.
 
*Daniel stops for a minute, then continues.*
 
Daniel: Will that be me? Will that happen to me too?
 
Dr. Stanton: Unfortunately…
 
Daniel: My voices. They are panicking.
 
Dr. Stanton: Your voice or the others?
 
Daniel: I guess all of them.
 
Dr. Stanton: You feeling some anxiety over the uncertainty of the future?
 
Daniel: Yeah…
 
Dr. Stanton: You seem closed off. Detached from what’s happening.
 
*Daniel doesn’t respond and continues drawing.*
 
Dr. Stanton: There will be a cure Daniel. Just not in the immediate future.
 
Daniel: How did this happen?
 
Dr. Stanton: How did you sign up and get into this scenario?
 
Daniel: This is otherworldly. I never thought I would end up here.
 
*Daniel closes his eyes and starts to breathe slowly*
 
Dr. Stanton: Its becoming more and more apparent that the people who hired did not reveal the intent of the study. It appears a lot of necessary details have been withheld so the integrity of the study is in the air. But you won’t be in vain. We’ll get a cure. We just need to figure out what can help.
 
*Daniel snaps his charcoal in half with one hand.*
 
Dr. Stanton: You okay Daniel?
 
Daniel: I need to get out.
 
Dr. Stanton: out of the study or out of the room?
 
Daniel: I need to get out!
 
*Daniel stands up fast and tries to run out of the room. Several security guards hold him down as he screams.*
 
Daniel: This place. It’s unholy! Many nightmares, unspeakable nightmares will be made here. I cannot devolve into these creatures. There is no cure! I have seen the future! The economy is collapsing!
 
*Security escort Daniel out of the room.*
 
*Dr. Stanton approaches the drawing*
 
Dr. Stanton: This self portrait. He’s got horns. Looks like some creature you would dream about. Is this how he sees himself, or thinks he will turn out? Either way. The future isn’t looking very bright for anyone.
