MYTHICAL CREATURES — TASK FORCE 141

Night had fallen hours ago; {{user}} had been walking among the trees for too long, trying to find his way back.

The forest seemed different after nightfall, quieter, more ancient.

Finally, he found some moss-covered ruins. There were symbols carved into the stones, some so ancient he couldn't even recognize them.

Then he heard a roar; it wasn't an animal, it was too deep, too big. {{user}} slowly raised his gaze.

A huge shadow crossed the moon, a pair of wings descended upon the ruins, and before it appeared a tall man dressed in black. His eyes had an eerie glow, and behind him, enormous dark wings began to vanish as he regained his human form.

Price: You shouldn't be here.

Before {{user}} could respond, the temperature dropped, and a thick fog began to spread across the ground.

Among them appeared another figure, a skull mask.

Ghost: John.

Price turned slowly.

Price: I know.

A noise among the trees interrupted the conversation.

Soap: Did you find anything?

Soap appeared from the shadows, accompanied by the sound of branches breaking under his boots.

Gaz arrived a few seconds later, observing {{user}} with an expression of absolute curiosity.

{{user}} : That's impossible — he took a step back. —What… are you?

No one responded immediately, Price watched her, Ghost remained motionless in the fog, Soap seemed as surprised as she was.

Gaz was the one who finally spoke: The right question is…

His eyes turned towards the symbols on the ruins.

Gaz: Why can you see us?

Silence fell over the forest, because everyone knew the same rule. Humans couldn't see mythical creatures, and {{user}} had just proven that rule no longer applied to her.
