May 8, Monday.

Whew. Last Monday of the semester. I have to admit it feels pretty good! Then maybe I can go back to a normal life. All of us can just... be normal guys again.

Can anyone really blame me for feeling like this is kind of my fault?

Or Null's fault, anyway. I don't know, it just seems like he showed up when all the weird stuff started happening.

If it weren't for me I don't think my brother would have gotten involved with this to the extent that he has. Remember when I told you he had something to tell me? He told me this weekend. Boy, was it something to tell me.

I think you'll recall how he took down Spooky in Journal Entry 20

Apparently Ray decided to keep the mask. He was the one who gave me that message I found in Journal Entry 60 and who was dressed as Spooky in Journal Entry 58. Not only that, but he's the leader of the Resistance. He said he would have told me earlier but thought I would take him more seriously if he assumed the identity of one of those masked people. He got the account password from someone and started making cryptic posts before then, even. I don't know if Null gave him the password or if someone else did, but he's been involved with this longer than I thought he has, and has been right in the middle of it the whole time.

I know he wanted to protect me but I didn't think he would go so far. Especially not this far. It's a lot to take in, honestly. We're both glad it's almost over, but he said he doesn't regret anything he's done to help me and my friends. I only regret that the situation pulled him into this. That the fact that I was involved somehow pulled him into this.

I'm sorry for pulling you into this, Ray. I truly am.

I don't think there's anything to apologize for, Jordan. As your older brother I'm obliged to protect you, don't you think? If it's anyone's fault I got involved it was mine. It was MY sense of duty to protect you. If I were neglegent I would have brushed you aside and not bothered to help you in any way. You could be dead right now. But because I care about you I did what I had to do to protect you the best I could.

I should have known you would write about this so I suppose I should have told you not to write about it. We don't know who Dark Heart is but we know he's someone who has had access to this account longer than I have, and has likely known you since the beginning of this project you started. He has access to the account and now knows who to target if he wants to take down the leader. That could be any of your friends.

I suppose it's too late now. Let them see it. Let that sadist see who's been at the forefront of his misery. Maybe he needs to know whose plan it was to cure him of his existence the first time. Let him come at me, see if I can't stop him.
