Before I start telling the story of how I became stuck in a top secret research facility somewhere in the desert between Tucson and Phoenix, HEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEELP!!!!!!!!!!
Well, since I got that of my chest, here goes.
Just in case I have to leave here in a hurry and can’t finish this post…

After Salvation Mountain, were we got John cured from his insanity-attacks, we drove on to Tombstone. It’s a really small Old West town south of Tucson which got famous after a showdown at the so called O.K. Corral between the Earp brothers (and Doc Holliday) and the McLaury brothers (and the Clanton cowboys) in the year 1881. The name Tombstone was aptly given to this town, cause people there died like flies. I guess in those days being an undertaker was the best bet to get filthy rich
From Tombstone we were supposed to drive straight to Phoenix, but then our TomTom got scrambled and b4 we knew it we were on a small dirt road in the middle of nowhere in the desert. After a while the dirt road ended on a small rise and we were confronted with an iron fence, signs warning us this was a private off limits research facility, and a clear view of a creepy complex of strange white structures.
As a teen I watched a lot of X-files so I couldn’t help myself wanting to Mulder my way into the complex. Of course John went all Scully on me so it took some convincing to get him to come along. Luckily he’s still wide open to all that psychology crap and after several wusses, sissy’s and mommas boy’s he caved in like a house of cards.
We jumped the fence, walked to what looked like an entrance to one of the buildings and then I ‘incidently’ knocked a bit too hard on a glass window pane and broke it. Being raised the way I am, I just had to go in and look for the inhabitants of the structure to make sure they got compensated for the damage done. So I stuck my hand through the broken glass, turned the latch inside, opened the door and entered the facility. From that moment on things fell to pieces at a frighteningly fast rate.
Strange control rooms, deserted living quarters, different areas each presenting one of the five major biomes of Earth, and then finally we hit a passage leading us down into underground tunnels when suddenly all lights went out and John and I were literally in the dark. After a short but eerie silence freaky noises started to sound around us scaring us shitless. We started moving away from the noises when John finally felt a door, went through it and, b4 I could go through also, accidently let it fall shut. Somehow the door got automatically locked after closing, because after a few seconds the lights went back on and I couldn’t get the door to open anymore. Through a small window in the door I saw John looking back, mouthing something and then running onwards.
At that point the voices were coming closer and I was feeling less and less Mulder by the minute. I quickly backtracked some 50 meters to the entrance of the tunnels, went up to the ground floor again and made my way back to one of the control rooms.
And that’s were I am now, sending this blog post S.O.S to the world. So, if anyone is out there, please come and get me out!!!!!
Oh, shit, I hear the voices again…. they’re coming closer… I need to leave right now! I…. hrlp mr…rwgTRHtjmhoi;aehn
