*Takes a step back at the sight*
Does whatever is going on match any evidence you found at the scene of the murders?

@Server

They were just killings. Though I wouldn’t be surprised if the killer had the capability to do whatever this is.
*The walls close in quickly, and show no sign of stopping at the gate as I take several quick steps backwards*

@Crew

We should go.

*Once it passes over the courtyard boundaries, I turn and follow you, dashing for the front entrance to the building. Despite nearly every visible window being empty, one lone humanoid silhouette can be seen turning and walking away several floors up as we run*

@Crew

Do you have any idea what this might be??

@Server

Not in the slightest.
*Puts both arms in front of my face and blasts through the front door of the building, running to the other end of the lobby before turning to look at the encroaching cosmos again*

@Crew

Then we’ll find something out here.

@Server

*The ‘barrier’ comes to a halt at the building’s edge, pressing against the door frame and all windows, and giving the appearance that we are a building floating alone in the void of space, and after this becomes apparent, I stop to catch my breath*
I sure hope so…

*Walks to the front of the room and inspects the wall of cosmos*

@Server

*It appears exactly as it did from a distance, as though peering into the night sky with no light pollution. It emits no sound either, and neither does anything else in the building when it should.*
I at least get the idea this is some kind of effect and not actually destroying anything or hurting anyone.
*Goes and stands in front of the reception desk, looking down at a black wisp in the shape of humanoid figure where the receptionist would be, then looks around at the rest of the lobby, taking in the dead silence*

I may be out of my league, here...

Don’t lose your head. We don’t know anything yet.

@Crew

I'm completely in the dark when it comes to metaphysical effects like whatever this is.

@Server

We can work through this together. And if it’s any consolation, with these being targeted attacks on IA organizations… The killer probably only wants one of us.

Whatever this is, it’s not interfering with my data.

@Server

I imagine that’s a good thing, then.
*The lobby’s lights flicker, and almost seem to dim a bit, but nothing that happens generates any sound unless we are the source*
Question is, do we wait for an attack, or try to seek them out?

@Crew

Can you send a message to anyone outside to let them know what’s going on?

@Server

Something tells me that would be too easy.
*Pulls out a thin, clear device that seems to be pretty much entirely just a screen*
…
Yeah, was too easy. Nothing’s getting out.
