Les secrets du passé

Le soleil projetait une lumière diffuse à travers l'épaisse canopée qui recouvrait la ville en ruines. Kai avançait prudemment, Umbra trottinant silencieusement à ses côtés. Ils avaient parcouru de vastes territoires dévastés, mais cette nouvelle zone semblait différente. Les structures ici étaient intactes, presque figées dans le temps, comme si les guerres successives n’avaient fait que les frôler.

Au détour d’une avenue enfouie sous les racines d’arbres immenses, ils aperçurent l’entrée d’un bâtiment. Une bibliothèque, comme l’indiquait une inscription à moitié effacée sur une plaque en métal corrodé. Intrigué, Kai s’aventura à l’intérieur, éclairé par la lumière mourante du jour. Les étagères renversées formaient des labyrinthes d’ombres, et l’air portait une odeur de papier moisi et de poussière.

En fouillant, Kai tomba sur un vieux journal au cuir craquelé. Il lut avidement les pages jaunies, découvrant des récits glaçants. Contrairement à ce qu’il avait toujours cru, les guerres n’avaient pas été de simples conflits successifs : des millénaires s’étaient écoulés entre elles. Des factions dissidentes, cherchant à dominer un monde déjà brisé, avaient orchestré l'effondrement des deux superpuissances responsables de la troisième guerre mondiale.

La révélation l’assomma. Tout ce qu’il pensait savoir sur le passé n’était qu’un fragment déformé de la réalité. Les pages décrivaient également des technologies avancées, des drones autonomes capables de terraformer et des dispositifs de stockage énergétique qui semblaient venir d’une autre époque.

Umbra, assis près de lui, reniflait l’air avec méfiance. Un frisson parcourut l’échine de Kai lorsqu’un bruit sourd résonna au loin, suivi par une série de grognements. Il se redressa rapidement, son cœur battant à tout rompre.

Sortant précipitamment de la bibliothèque, Kai et Umbra se retrouvèrent face à une vision terrifiante : une horde de renards géants s’avançait vers eux. Leurs fourrures rousses flamboyaient sous les derniers rayons du soleil, et leurs yeux scintillaient d’un éclat prédateur. Ils étaient au moins une douzaine, et leur chef, plus grand que les autres, avait une cicatrice sur le museau qui lui donnait un air particulièrement menaçant.

Kai n’eut pas le temps de réfléchir. Il saisit son sac et commença à courir, son souffle court et ses jambes tremblantes. Les renards, alertés par son mouvement, poussèrent des hurlements stridents avant de s’élancer à sa poursuite.

Le terrain était traître, parsemé de débris et de racines qui entravaient sa progression. Une chute serait fatale. Umbra, voyant le danger, bondit avec une agilité stupéfiante pour intercepter les premiers renards. Le loup gigantesque s’élança, crocs découverts, et plaqua un renard au sol, le maîtrisant avec une puissance impressionnante.

Kai se retourna brièvement pour voir Umbra en plein combat. Le loup faisait preuve d’une sauvagerie maîtrisée, mordant et repoussant les assaillants. Mais malgré sa force, il était en infériorité numérique. "Je dois l’aider !" pensa Kai, mais il savait qu’il n’avait ni les armes ni les compétences pour affronter de telles créatures.

The Secrets of the Past

The sun cast a diffuse light through the thick canopy that covered the ruined city. Kai moved cautiously, with Umbra trotting silently at his side. They had traversed vast, devastated lands, but this new area seemed different. The structures here were intact, almost frozen in time, as though the successive wars had merely grazed them.

At the turn of an avenue buried under the roots of enormous trees, they spotted the entrance of a building. A library, as indicated by a half-faded inscription on a corroded metal plaque. Intrigued, Kai ventured inside, illuminated by the dying light of the day. The overturned shelves formed labyrinths of shadows, and the air carried the scent of moldy paper and dust.

While rummaging through the place, Kai stumbled upon an old journal with cracked leather. He eagerly read the yellowed pages, uncovering chilling accounts. Contrary to what he had always believed, the wars had not been mere successive conflicts: millennia had passed between them. Dissident factions, seeking to dominate an already shattered world, had orchestrated the collapse of the two superpowers responsible for World War III.

The revelation stunned him. Everything he thought he knew about the past was just a distorted fragment of reality. The pages also described advanced technologies, autonomous drones capable of terraforming, and energy storage devices that seemed to belong to another era.

Umbra, sitting next to him, sniffed the air warily. A chill ran down Kai's spine when a dull sound echoed in the distance, followed by a series of growls. He quickly straightened up, his heart pounding wildly.

Rushing out of the library, Kai and Umbra were met with a terrifying sight: a horde of giant foxes was advancing toward them. Their fiery red fur glowed under the last rays of the sun, and their eyes gleamed with a predatory shine. There were at least a dozen of them, and their leader, larger than the others, had a scar on its snout that made it look especially menacing.

Kai didn’t have time to think. He grabbed his bag and started running, his breath short and his legs trembling. The foxes, alerted by his movement, let out high-pitched howls before launching into pursuit.

The terrain was treacherous, littered with debris and roots that hindered his progress. A fall would be fatal. Umbra, seeing the danger, leapt with astounding agility to intercept the first foxes. The gigantic wolf sprang forward, teeth bared, and pinned one fox to the ground, overpowering it with impressive strength.

Kai glanced back briefly to see Umbra in the midst of combat. The wolf displayed controlled ferocity, biting and pushing back the attackers. But despite his strength, he was outnumbered. "I need to help him!" Kai thought, but he knew he had neither the weapons nor the skills to face such creatures.
