This is the personal journal of the X-Corps test subject, Aiden. What makes this journal strange and difficult to read is every time it is opened, a portal appears and rips it from your grasp before you can read to much. Here are the currently documented entries within this journal.
'I tried going back into the void by doing exactly what Dredd taught me. But somehow I ended up in a strange land, standing on top of rocky ground surrounded by red water and engulfed by a black sky with no light. It was cold, dark, scary, and yet I felt calm. For a moment, I thought I heard something in the distance.. beyond the horizon, but before I could even take a step, someone, or something, covered in dark purple clothes appeared in front of me. It.. simply looked at me and suddenly I was back in the void, facing Dredd. I told him what happened but he told me not to think anything of it. Dredd began training me. He said if I become strong enough, I can leave the prison I'm locked inside one day and be free.'
'They made me do it again, the ..experiment. I disappeared for longer this time.. longer from their point of view, shorter from mine. Time doesn't work there the way it works here. Is time even something in there? Regardless, in my brief time in the void, I didn't encounter Dredd. Did I do it right? Maybe I need to practice his lessons more.'
'They brought in a girl today. I only saw her for a brief moment from the experimentation room but she looked like she was a few years younger than me. Maybe 8? Well.. I don't even know my own age but I think I'm young? She seemed silent. She's in the room next to mine. Or is it a cell? I don't know. I don't even know her name yet. But that doesn't matter.. all that matters is getting out of here. I don't want to be treated like this anymore.'
'I haven't lost sight of my goal. I will leave. I will leave with her because that is the only way to protect her.. to protect Aida.'
'I can hear her screaming every night. Sometimes I enter the void just to get away from her continuous noise. All this training with Dredd is paying off. He considers it strange that I'm mastering his lessons so quickly. But it seems to come naturally to me. Luck, I guess. I just wish this girl would stop screaming. My face is already scarred forever, why does she have to scar my ears?'
'They made her do the experiment today while I was in the room. One of the scientists referred to her as Test Subject 0. Why 0 though? If I'm the first test subject, why is her number before mine? Maybe she was more important? I don't know why that would be the case though considering her experiment was a total failure. There was a man in the room with red hair and weird black glasses covering his eyes. He had various people surrounding him so he was probably important, but he yelled at her. And then he yelled at one of the scientists. Perhaps all he does is yell?'
'I will kill them. I will kill them all for what they did to her.'
'My attempt to escape failed. There's a strange barrier around this place. It's like.. it's protected by something as mysterious as the void. I can't leave. I.. Dredd.. I failed. Forgive me.'
'I almost lost this journal today. One of the men here wearing some kind of heavy clothing entered my room unannounced. I almost forgot how to hide something in the void but luckily, I remembered before it was too late. I'm ..happy I guess that I didn't lose this. This journal is all I have now that is truly mine. It is my only companion here. I can't even talk to myself. They put this mask on my face whenever they send me back to my room. I don't think they like my scars very much. It doesn't allow me to talk either.. not that my voice has healed enough for me to talk easily anyway. One of the ..scientists called me a monster. But I'm just a kid? Anyway, I think I'll write down how to properly store and retrieve things from the void.'
'So.. what do I write here? Do I talk about what happened in the experiment? What seemed like hours in there.. was barely a second here. I still don't understand my own ability. What can I do? What am I? They said the experiment was a failure because they didn't see anything happen. But I was gone. I wasn't here. I was in that strange place, attacked by that strange thing.. before that strange man saved me. He said to call him Dredd. What kind of name is that? Ah.. whatever I'm not going to judge Dredd when I don't even know what my name is. They only call me Test Subject 1. It was unfortunate he could not heal my face completely after the attack. My voice is a little better but it hurts to speak now. Even the doctors here failed to do anything. So.. yeah now I'm back in my room. I don't.. I don't know what the point of this journal is. Why did he give me this?'
'I have to look out for her. I have to look out for us. No one else will.'
'There is a strange disturbance in the void lately. It seems to be in flux. Perhaps.. I may be able to leave.'
'It's been so many years.. so many years in my time since I last saw Dredd. He.. he was like a father to me.'
'It's been a few times now since she's attempted the experiment, but she has never been successful. I don't hear her screaming anymore at night, but I do hear her crying. I wonder what's wrong. Wait, no she has nothing to do with me. I need to focus on my lessons with Dredd.'
