Mass Grave Uncovered in Atlanta

ATLANTA, GEORGIA—Civil engineers recently unearthed what appeared to be a squatter colony in a sewer junction beneath the streets of Atlanta. Upon further inspection, the subterranean structure turned out to be some type of crypt, as bodies were found in extreme stages of decay and disfigurement. Doctors suggest the makeshift tomb might have been a yellow fever (or other epidemic) mass grave not unlike the ones found in nearby Savannah. Others remain dubious, as the bodies seemed too fresh to have been buried at the time of the yellow fever threat.

Vampire:
Das ganze sieht stark nach einem schlecht durchdachten Nosferatubau aus, oder es könnte sich um die überreste einer Sabbatparty handeln.

To Her Majesty Penangallan Queen Laiami Kai: It is the opinion of this humble soul that the symptom you report has become widespread among the Kuei-jin. Although none would report directly on such matters, several mandarins and ancients are said to have called for the arrival of no small number of mortals from whom they can draw Chi. As with your majesty, these worthies have long been able to draw Chi from the air itself, so their sudden need for living blood bodes ill for the Great Wheel. I remain your dedicated servant.

KdL:
Irgendetwas läuft gerade ziemlich schief, da Keuis die weit in ihrem Dharma vorangeschritten sind, plötzlich Chi nur noch über Blut aufnehmen können.

Lightshow in New Mexico Reveals \'Angels\'

LOS LUNAS, NEW MEXICO—Residents of Los Lunas reportedly witnessed a fiery light show in the skies over their city shortly after midnight last night. Umberto Reyes, a local resident, claims to have seen three angelic figures fighting "a winged monster" amid the churning clouds, using "swords and spears of pure lightning." Reyes claims the battle raged directly over his small farm, lasting from midnight until nearly 3:00 AM, until one of the angels "split the monster open and pulled out its heart" with a resounding thunderclap that shook local houses to the foundations. Authorities and emergency services as far away as Albuquerque confirm that a sonic boom shattered windows and knocked items from their shelves at three o\'clock that morning, but believe the shockwave was generated by a low-flying military supersonic aircraft. Less easily explained are the cataracts that have stolen Reyes\' eyesight and the sudden hair loss that local health officials say closely resembles severe radiation poisoning.

Demon:
Wirklich epischer Kampf zwischen Dämonen.

Underground Collapse in New York

NEW YORK CITY, NEW YORK—Three people were killed, dozens injured and traffic was snarled in Midtown Manhattan when a half-block of 43rd Street near Times Square collapsed early this morning. Several yards of the blacktop fell in, overturning vehicles and releasing foul-smelling gasses. City engineers theorize that the destruction resulted from the collapse of the so-called "dragon\'s graveyard," the underground facilities for the New York Times\' decommissioned printing presses. In a disturbing side note, witnesses report that thousands of sewer rats swarmed out of the fissures caused by the collapse.

Temple Mount Violence Kills 31

JERUSALEM, ISRAEL—One of the holiest sites in the world became a site of religious and political violence today as Jews and Muslims clashed outside the Dome of the Rock in Jerusalem. The Muslim mosque is built on the site of the ancient Hebrew Temple and overlooks the so-called Wailing Wall, the last remains of the Temple and holiest site in Judaism. Riots broke out today after local airwaves were suddenly (and thus far, inexplicably) flooded with a recorded message stating in both Hebrew and Arabic that, "The temple will be rebuilt." Authorities say that Muslims at the Mount tried to eject Jews from the area around the Wall, while Jews tried to enter the Dome of the Rock itself. Thirty-one people were dead before the time authorities arrived to quell the riot.

Demon:
Dass der Tempel wieder aufgebaut werden soll, klingt sehr stark nach Demon, besonders da das Jüdische Volk die Geheimwaffe Luzifers ist.

Water Supply Spiked with Hallucinogens in Washington State Town

WALLA WALLA, WASHINGTON—Local police and emergency departments were flooded with over a dozen calls last night relating to unexplained sightings in the city of Faro, WA, approximately 50 miles from Walla Walla. Officials have traced the cause to a large quantity of hallucinogenic drug introduced into the town’s drinking water supply. Consultants from the Walla Walla Police Department have not as yet identified the substance. A review of recorded phone calls, however, contained similar testimony relating to "lights" and "disembodied sounds" in the homes of Faro residents. The wide sampling of similar reports suggests the same chemical affected all 15 witnesses. Scientific experts will arrive in town this weekend to conduct further inquiries.

Upstate New York Mountain Man Surrenders Drenched in Blood

LAKE PLACID, NEW YORK—A man identified as Eneas Zoetope stumbled into an Upstate New York town today, completely covered in blood and gore.

Police continue to question him as to who the blood belongs to and where the bodies are, but all he has said so far is "Nunnehi."

Chicago \'Vampire-Hunter\' Escapes Federal Custody

CHICAGO, ILLINOIS—Federal agents of hush-hush Project: Twilight refused to comment on the escape from their custody of Nathaniel Bordruff, whom they apprehended two days ago. Federal agents refused even to confirm Bordruff’s identity, although local law enforcement officials were more forthcoming. Bordruff himself claimed to be "fighting vampires," though members of the recently exposed "blood cult" insisted that Bordruff himself was a vampire.

Riots and Explosion Mar Spontaneous Indian Pilgrimage

CALCUTTA, INDIA—Indian authorities were all but helpless today as mobs of people gathered along the shores of the sacred Ganges River, claiming to be there to witness “the ascension of the demon avatars.” The gathering turned violent when, after attendees had waded out into the river, an explosion of unknown origin rocked the scene. The crowd rioted, resulting in the deaths of well over 100 people and nearly five times that number injured. Witnesses claimed to have seen burning figures walking on the surface of the river and four-armed avatars (described as manifestations of Hindu gods) attacking people and drinking their blood. Indian authorities have declared a state of emergency and imposed martial law in an effort to restore order.

Radio Caller Warns of \'Monsters Among Us\'

ST. PAUL, MINNESOTA—Before being cut off during a broadcast of the Charlie Krongold Show, broadcast live on NPR stations nationwide, a caller identifying himself only as "Bookworm" launched into the following tirade earlier today: "They say the end is coming—and it is—but what if we can stop it from really being the final, game-over end? We can fortify ourselves. We can be good people. Lead by example. Monsters flourish like germs. If we keep a good, clean environment, the beasts can\'t get a foothold. We\'ve let them go too long, and now the conspiracy is entrenched. But we can stop it! Society can still heal. These don\'t need to be our last days. The tunnel is going to be long and dark, but we can make it through to the other side. We can find our virtue to stop the monst—"

DC Blackout Lifts After Mayor Backs Down on \'Degenerate Cult\'

WASHINGTON, DC—The nation\'s capital returned to calm—and daylight—this morning, shortly after the mayor retracted his earlier comments that an alternative religion calling itself the Church of Abaddon Ascendant was a "degenerate cult," and further promised to protect the organization from "persecution" by law enforcement agencies. The crisis began two days ago when a police raid on the Church of Abaddon Ascendant\'s newly built temple left 12 churchgoers and four police officers dead. That evening, an anonymous caller reportedly phoned the office of the mayor demanding that he and his officials "bow before the Ebon King who waits." Immediately thereafter the city was plunged into inexplicable darkness, touching off bloody riots that continued despite the declaration of martial law and the deployment of National Guard troops, tanks and helicopters.

Demon:
Abaddon war einer der fünf Erzdämonen die in Luzifers Namen eine der fünf Legionen lenkten. Wie die anderen auch ist er seid einer halben ewigkeit bereits auf der Erde und ist aber erst kürzlich wieder erwacht. Scheinbar kam jemand dem Kult zusammen und Abaddon machte sich die Mühe (*lach*) und hat entweder Washington für zwei Tage in vollständige Dunkelheit gestürtzt oder einfach nur den Strom ausgeknipst. Je nachdem wie man es übersetzt.

Ash Man Cult Murderers Still On the Run

GERLACH, NEVADA—Police have yet to announce arrests of the fugitive religious cult members who attempted to burn victims alive at last weekend’s Ash Man festival. The famed annual counterculture event draws thousands of devotees and tourists to a desert location outside Gerlach, Nevada. The Bright Foundation, a religious organization based in Las Vegas, had been using the event to recruit followers. Several regular attendees of the festival left their homes and jobs to commit themselves to a "Family Compound" in the Nevada desert. Spokespersons for the Bright Foundation deny that their organization was involved in the violent incident, but federal officials have convened an investigation of the group.

Mage oder Demon:
Ist wohl angelehnt an das amerikanische "Burning Man Festival"; Klingt entweder nach einem degenerierten Gruppe vom Kult der Ekstase oder einem Demonen Kult der ein Ritual durchführen wollte.

Syrians Protest US \'Fanaticism\'

DAMASCUS, SYRIA—Massive protests took place in Syria and much of the rest of the Arab World today over US rhetoric that some have called fanatic. Syrian government officials, speaking to the protestors in Damascus, decried the "Christian fanaticism being spouted by America." This comes one day after the newly installed American administrator in Iraq called his agenda in the region "advancing the plan laid out for us in Scripture." Despite a stream of communiqués from Washington arguing that the ambassador was referring to Christian charity, sources inside the interim authority in Baghdad claim that many top officials are now "reading Revelations for policy choices.

450 Die in ‘Rain of Fire’ in Jerusalem

JERUSALEM, ISRAEL—Local residents and religious leaders were horrified last night by a shower of sulfurous rock that left blazing trails across the cloudy sky and caused untold damage among Jerusalem’s holiest shrines. The rain of fire and brimstone began at midnight and lasted until just before dawn, causing fires and spawning clouds of noxious fumes that left close to 450 people dead and thousands injured.

One minute the LA skyline was normal. Then it was just there. This massive goddamn black shape. Like an old church, a Gothic cathedral, but enormous. More than enormous. I think it was at least a mile wide, more than a hundred stories high. It threw me, but I thought it was a vision or a waking dream, something thrown at me by ‘them.’ Then I heard plates falling to the floor beside me. I looked around, and the waitress at the café was just staring at the building, jaw on the floor. She could see it too.

Jetzt wirds lustig... die Kathedrale die in LA erschienen ist, könnte sehr Wahrscheinlich ein Teil von Luzifers Festung gewesen sein, die sich wieder in unsere Realität geschoben hat, bzw. beschworen wurde.

Violence and Madness Grip OSU Campus

COLUMBUS, OHIO—The Ohio State University campus became a battleground yesterday afternoon as two groups of assailants engaged in what appears to have been a running gun battle, lasting a full eight hours. Witnesses also report a variety of sights during the chaos, including the appearance of such fanciful beings as dragons and elves. No sign of such beasts were uncovered after the battle ended, but authorities are reportedly at a loss as to the motives or identities of the combatants. Those arrested at the scene are seemingly suffering from acute amnesia and deny any memory of a battle, much less any fairy tale monsters. Sixteen people died during the violence.

Bloodied Man With No Pulse Escapes Detroit Hospital

UN Authorizes World Advisory Council to Fight Terrorist ‘Nine’

NEW YORK CITY, NEW YORK—The United Nations Security Council today granted extraterritorial law-enforcement powers to the World Advisory Council. Staffed by members of the international intelligence, military and scientific communities, the Council’s expertise will be used to dismantle the infrastructure of The Nine, a terrorist organization credited with attacks worldwide. Advisors will assist global military and law enforcement as well as manage member nations’ detention camps. The demand for outside assistance comes in the wake of the deaths of 54 FBI agents who attempted to apprehend members of the so-called “Akashic Brotherhood.” The cult is one of many fringe cells that US State Department officials accuse of using psychotropic chemicals and biological weapons to fulfill The Nine’s anarchist, apocalyptic agenda.

Es scheint eher so, als ob die Technokratische Union unter dem Deckmantel des FBI\'s gegen den Rat der Neun als ganzes vorgegangen ist und dabei halt auf Widerstand der Bruderschaft gestoßen sind.

Unexplained Solar Eclipse Baffles Astronomers

CAIRO, EGYPT—International authorities were today baffled by what they could only call an “unexplained phenomenon” involving a total solar eclipse seen in the Middle East. No eclipse was expected, since the moon’s orbit does not bring it directly in front of the sun for another two months, when an eclipse is expected to occur across parts of North America. Nonetheless, the event appeared exactly like a solar eclipse and obscured the face of the sun as visible in Cairo, Alexandria and parts of Palestine, Syria and Saudi Arabia. The “eclipse” lasted for just over 20 minutes, and was filmed by numerous media outlets in the region, as well as by members of the Ashuki Corporation. Though explanations have been offered, ranging from orbiting space debris to a close pass by a “rogue” asteroid, experts have dismissed these theories as “highly unlikely.”
