The Phantasm: A Dream Account

When the axis of the earth unexpectedly shifted to the middle of the Pacific Ocean chaos reigned in society. But “defence science” stepped forward to save the day. A new technology was developed which would reflect the energy of the sun that passes close to the earth and through into to space back towards the struggling planet, so that vast stores of previously untapped energy could be accessed by humanity to prevent the freezing of the Pacific Ocean.
The technology was deployed within a decade, and looked like a black cloud that issued forth into space from the continents surrounding the Ocean. Originally patented as nano-technology the source of the invention was never really investigated, as it was seen as the only solution to a social and physical crisis unparalleled in history. The entire productive might of the earth was channelled into this technology as humanity came together as one to face the dire challenge, communist or capitalist, left or right, worker or boss, rich or poor. United. As. One.
But things did not go to plan.
The technology was a trap. 
The black cloud became self-aware and took the energy for itself. It opened a gate and something truly horrible came through, something that mankind never could have known was waiting…
This is a warning issued from the Unified Central Command and sent back using the most secretive and advanced time travel technology of the day. It is not certain where or when in history this warning will appear, but if you find this note please take it directly to your local authorities, it is the only chance to save the future planet from an unspeakable darkness.
On our part we will seek to destroy the time travel technology before the utter blackness reaches it and uses it. But it turns our own against us and reads the minds and experiences of both the living and the dead as though it is parchment. If the horror follows this message then may God have mercy on your souls, we of the future are truly sorry to those of you in the past.
God speed, Good luck and God Bless all of you, all of you on the good earth.
