The Sole Survivor of Plight 930: The Worst Tragedy the World Has Ever Known. The Man Who Ca n't Be Stopped. The Hero the World Could Turn To. 
 
 These news articles do n't do me justice. No one has ever bothered to print the whole story because what you see is n't it. No one cares for the truth, but the truth is that I was a coward. Camp 430 was the first camp attacked, it was my camp and those were my men; those were my friends who died at the Outsiders' hands. And I should have died with them. 
 
 I begged and begged. I pleaded with them not to kill me. Let me live, I said. Just let me live. I said it over and over while I watched them torture every single soldier one by one. It probably only took two weeks, but it seemed like forever. There was 100 of us but there were so many more of them. They wanted the coordinates to our other bases but everyone refused. 
 
 But when they got to me I told them. I pretended, I justified for so long, that it was because I wanted to spare the remaining 10 men their lives but the truth is that I wanted them to spare mine. I handed over the coordinates with the knowledge that I was dooming hundreds to die, watched as they killed the 10 men left, and felt them alter me with monitoring devices. We all wondered for so long why are we losing this war when we were were winning it before. How did they know what we were going to do before we did it. And this is why. It ’ s because of me. I ’ m hooked up to them through technology you can ’ t even believe is real all because I wanted to live. 
 
 My greatest mistake was thinking that being alive was the same as living. I wo n't be making the same mistake again.
