DISPATCH FROM THE FRONT LINES
DISPATCH FROM THE FRONT LINES
[ORLANDO, FLORIDA — AUGUST 2025]
They used to sell dreams–cotton candy and castles. Now, it’s a heat-baked kill box, an incinerated swamp where Morgan & Morgan billboards melt and the swans bob like helmets in a canal. Only rats remain. The sun doesn’t set anymore. Streets blister. Palms smolder. A Waffle House sign flickers in the smoke.
PRIMITIVE WARFARE.
Two operators. Names burned from the file. Eyes piercing through black slits. No treaties—only violence. Drums march like tracked armor. Riffs strafe the skyline. Mechanical. Methodical. Maniacal. They move through the ruins like a hurricane, silent until impact.Command calls them a band. Witnesses call them a force.
[INTEL]
They barter in hand grenades and pre-workout rations. Their show is an assault. Their stage, the front line. Audience, hostages.
[OPERATION: MOUSE TRAP]
