We Want War

During the last two weeks we've been receiving strange cargoboxes that were labeled as "fragile" and smelled like something was rotting inside. I was doing my normal maintenance tasks in the basement of this warehouse when someone opened one of those boxes and let the hell rise upon us...

I heard screaming and growling from the next room but I was too scared to go and see what was happening there. Soon I realized that whatever there happened I have to go and find out because I was trapped in here. So I took a good grip on my crowbar.
