New Moon, Old Blood

Report (verbatim) from Walker of incidents which occurred during our minding of Ogura at a safe-house in an unremarkable suburb of Raleigh, North Carolina.

===

been asigned to go to Reileigh North Carolina, to baysit Ogura in witness propection, while the event of sept 11th happen.

Gravity girl and the other superheros were involed in proting the city?
and have been seen now tv.

4am a disturbance happens outside noticing a whilte van from Georgia plates.
ford 1995 4 bodys in the van 3 men and 1 woman great NeoNatizs

after investgaing the van and the surrounding area the next day we started to researches in the area we come up with werewolfes, some local missing persons and a few murders in the area.

the following day an indvinual arrived at the front door of the safe house demanding to let in because we had his book??? He I’d himself as smith?
after telling him we didnt have his book, he said that he could smell thqat it was here?

(he was of a larger build, bald head. however we didnt get to notice anyother feathure as this time.)

he then procedded to charger the door, which we attempted to open before he reached it. We were mostly sucessful, he lost he balance as he came charging in,as we started to fire 2 two warning shots to deter him from any more agressive actions.

we told him that his book wasnt here and that agent clive probly took it with him to the libery

However he was not deteredby this and he was shot twice by two agents,which seem to have little to no effect on him, before running out of the safe house and departing in a jeep type vercal. Proberly togo to the libery to find this book.

We proceded to persue, after an inital headstart we managed to disable his verical by shotting out one of the tyres.

the chase then proceded on foot after the suspect rolled down an enbankment,
agent walker quickly following behind them.

Agent Delbert stayed at the top of the enbankment, while agent Gus drove the SUV round to the lower level.

Walker shot the suspect with a shot gun at close range to middleing results, but Smith started to change form into a golden wolf like creature.

walker shot him again disabling his arm, but not before reciving a blow from his claws which torn in to walkers arm.

Agent Delbert remembering that clive has a trunk with all sorts of kits and oddititys for dealing with monsters and ghosts and our alien gun. however this was located in the SUV with Gus.

As the fight was begining to turn in favor of the beast agent gus decided to runover the creature to try to subdue it, however she lost contol of the verical hitting both the creature and walker pinning them both.

this gave Delbert time to get down the enbankment and recover the a gun with silver bullets the first shot jammed the weapon, so delbert had to use gus,s revolver to shot the creature in the head before it freed its self fome being trapped by ouy verical.

The second shot to the head killed it, which then reverted to its human form, walker was heavly injured again.

the recoverly and clean up crews arrived to sanitise the area. cover story being a large dog ran into the road causing an accident an injuringa cyclist.

end.

Missing Reports

In my brief absence, no reports were filed by the “team”. From what I can gather, there have been a few outings:

Guardians of St Bernard
Delbert and Gus prevented relics from the Church of St Bernard falling into the hands of members of Les Trieze Corbins. While Dimitri has been somewhat cagey as to what exactly has been retrieved, I suspect he and Gus are up to something. Also, there is a gargoyle after taking up residence at the end of the entrance hall.

Beating Heart
The Chief tasked the team with investigating an unlikely streak of good fortune experienced by Captain William Rock. After discovering sandmen had interfered with his heart replacement device, they infiltrated VentureCorp’s HQ, Venture Tower. Therein they killed both the surgeon who had been installing the devices as wall as a fraal who we suspect was the device’s creator.

Distant Signals
During the above assignment, the team took a minor detour to deliver some equipment to a movie set.

Dire Wavelengths
Due to an outside influence, the team intercepted an actress to prevent her attending filming. A news report later confirmed that the lighting equipment on set had been sabotaged and her attendance would likely have resulted in her being injured or worse.

A Head for Business
The Chief assigned me as mission lead to investigate the failed hijacking of Flight 315. While I will file a separate report in detail, the summary is as follows:

  • A joint coverup operation by the FBI and CDC to hide sandmen presence and prevent any spread of nanite infection.
  • Knockoff sandmen needler-pistols being drip-fed into the blackmarket by Karuo Ogura.
  • The team protected Ogura from a squad of sandmen and took him into protective custody
  • Ogura was in possession of a partially preserved sandmen head, which is the Institute has secured for study.

Wot we did in sewers and why we needed help.
The bug man got a lead about something in the local sewers about his job he’s trying to set up here and also might be a bit iffy/ funky, we got a truck some work overalls and went down into sewers, (yes it stinks)
Followed a trail for slime, which lead us to some homeless people living down there manged to get them to talk to us. They told us something was further on down the tunnels we were on they wouldn’t go any further it had teeth turn out to be a big albino gater, it got the bug guy good but I managed to put it down so out we went with a job done. (Turns out that’s not what we’re were after.)
Love the heath care system we got.
End one report.

Report 2 lizard people!!!!
So we go back down again, this time with bigger guns! We decided to enter the sewers from under an apartment building, to cut down on time. To we pretty much started where we found the gator. We continued south from thier past a heavily reinforced door with some impressive security on it. No way us two bozo’s could crack that so we left it , so we continued further down the tunnel then we stop something or two somethings they looked like lizard people but dressed up Egyptian garb, a fight broke out they started it honest. They had powers could take over your mind, we managed to overcome them and push them back down a side tunnel and there was a god dam portal to who know where so I threw a few granades at the thing as a (I shit you not a fuking mummy) came from the portal also in Egyptian gear maybe this thing was cloiepatra or something I don’t know we killed it again?? The portal closed we left to attend to our wounds as usual.

The Kindness of Strangers

With Agent Smith and I busy elsewhere, his recently-formed team were sent on a routine extraction. Of course, there’s no such thing as a routine extraction. Walker was kind enough to avoid using crayon when filing his report this time. [Note to self: Set aside time to familiarise him with the standard case file report form.]

Contributor: Agent Clint “Walker” Gibbson

Date: 2001-05-13

Participants: Agent Clint Gibbson, Auxiliary Delbert McClintock, Auxiliary Gus (last name not on file); Field Agent Jose Sanders, Professor Veña Sanchevandez

FIELD REPORT:

After arriving at the target location, we had to hot trot out and back to the extraction area. As we came under heavy fire from parties unknown, agent heavily wounded. Needed to employ the help of a local medic to help stabilise the agent from site.

On the trip back, we were attacked by a “force” which killed both pilot and co-pilot, the plane began to fall. I tried to stabilise long enough for the team to jump out with parachutes; only myself and the prof stayed with the plane as she is terrified of flying and had a bigger phobia about jumping out of one.

THE SWAMP:
After “landing the plane” all team members landed able to continue on mission, while avoiding the local wildlife. Set up camp but local wildlife was extremely hostile to our presence. We were approached by two brothers who were alligator hunters from the area. We went with them the their home for shelter as they told us they had a working CB radio.

THE HOUSE:
While we using the radio the first two brothers transformed/morphed into some kind of alligator creatures. A gun fight ensued and we neutralised both of them. We began to explore the house, when we were ambushed by the other two brothers. After tacking some serious wounds we killed one of them but the other escaped. We noticed the remains of a plane and a pickup truck, we decided to evacuate the location by using the truck but we were once again assaulted by the last of the brothers. The target was finally put down and we proceeded to trunk but we noticed a satellite dish on the side of the plane. I decided to investigate the plane.

THE PLANE:
I made entrance to the plane and proceeded into the cockpit to check the controls, then began to investigate the rest of the plane which had been converted into a living space and laboratory for a xeno being. We persuaded them to comply to our authority, and got his name, how he got here, and that he had created the 4 brothers from the local fauna. Gus gained access to the computer and put out a message for extraction but it look like our message was intercepted by the same Sandmen who assaulted the prof and her team in South America came to extract the prof again. By using guerrilla tactics and guile and a lot of dynamite we terminated the first 3 Sandmen. The forth, who tried to escape in their chopper, was shot down by myself with the help of some well aimed shots to the rear tail motor and fuel tank.

THE EXTRACTION:
After all threats were eliminated to the best of out knowledge we awaited extraction by the Hoffman Ins. or other friendly forces.

SUMMARY:
2 team mates heavily wounded, during mission and local hostiles

1 agent heavily wounded, prior to mission and return to home base.

The Asset “prof” wounded with a broken arm from the crash of the plane.

One xeno biologic extracted for debrief.

All team members survived…

Of Ghosts & Goblins

During a personal trip to Fort Worth, Texas, a team of HI assets got involved with related murder and smuggling cases. Regulations are a bit vague on this, but the Chief has asked me to make a few notes…


Abbreviated Case File: 01-DFWXX-0010943
Date: 2001-03-04
Location: Fort Worth, TX
Participants: Agent John Smith, Recruit Clint Gibbson, Auxiliary Delbert McClintock, Auxiliary Gus (last name unknown), Doug Nichols

Participants investigated whereabouts of freelance reporter Rachel Pewit. Discovered her death had been orchestrated by Columbian drug runners. Same mercenaries were working with Orrin Wray of Wray Information Systems. WIS also had some involvement with extraterrestrials known as Goblins. Participants decided to infiltrate WIS facility.
Agent John Smith was rendered unconscious during the infiltration. Recruit Clint Gibbson managed to deliver the following oral report once sufficiently recovered from his concussion:
“Infiltration was red; we were noticed. Health was red. Heavy injuries to team. Ammo was green. Civilian casualties were amber – dead guards. Enemy combatants amber – some escaped. Intelligence gathered was red – lost the ship and crew. Exfoliation of the area was green – we escaped with notes a safe and alien equipment.”

Mission Outcome Evaluation: DEA Agent Devin Hembree was rescued during the course of the mission. He rallied local law enforcement to take down the Columbian gang. Currently building a case against WIS.

Participants: Agent John Smith, Agent Bobbie Wu, Agent Dimitri, Agent Ignatius, Recruit Clive Gibbson, Delbert McClintlock, Auxiliary Gus

Description: Mission to investigate cause of mysterious explosion at Illinois of Research Institute.
———————————————————————————————————————————————————————————
———————————————————————————————————————————————————————————
Conclusion: 7 students, Doctor Verd, Assistant Greta were involved in an experiment called H.E.C.R.A (High Energy Cosmic Ray Accumulator) the goal to create a infinite energy source. As if any endeavor mistakes can occur the power source exploded sending reaction particles & radiation outward, oddly the explosion didn’t have any shrapnel and must have had high heat as the window upon inspection had melting from the inside out. We claimed we we EPA (a good call from recruit Gibson) although not dressed for the part when one of the students stirred. Although irradiated it wasn’t enough to pose a threat to us, after speaking to the student we learned 2 students were missing Veronica & Edward. This is where Greta stirred and we learned more about what they were trying to demonstrate. Searching we found odd traces of yellow green sludge trail behind a air vent & scuff marks leading to another door possible the 2 missing students? Medics were called, while searching outside we ran into a cryptid its eyes glowed, had low arm appendages its skin charred black with shiny metallic crystal spots. It charged seeming as if targeting Greta & the Doc, we fired on it (it seemed to be resistant to our gunfire) it tripped but running on it fours beastly like it had increased speed and ability to leap around 8 meters easily it escaped over the building. While facing this cryptid I noticed it was wearing an old Casio watch, at this point the assistant Great seemed to have recognized it as the watch one of the missing students named Veronica. It would seemed the crytpid were in fact the two missing students perhaps changed via the burst of Hecra energy radiation. After escorting several students to a secure storage room we set upon trying to locate the crytpid assuming they might although beastly continue some habits as if going to their dorms or vising areas of the institute. Heading back to the lab battle ensued with the charred crytpid formally Veronica. Gibson & myself were wounded greatly in this combat encounter, while downed from wounds we were informed from the others the cryptid was going to charge the Doc but somehow in the moment Greta started producing a High gravity field on the cyrptid (maybe the blast somehow mutated some of the students but gave Greta this ability?). After trapping the creature under a projector we coup de gras it, searching the vents we have the body of Edward it looked like his innards were squeezed out, following the trail it lead into the local sewers (precaution advised for possible sightings). While we were in surgery it seems somehow Doctor Verd & Greta managed to elude our watchers, leaving me to hypothesize maybe the Doc has also gained some ability?.
———————————————————————————————————————————————————————————
Mission Outcome Evaluation: The cause of the explosion was unforeseen from the Doctor’s statement, unknown if the device was tampered with. Research documents have been secured & video/camera footage. Recruit Gibson although giving a very military aura was helpful although the odds were stacked against us, our mish mash group is definitely under equipped for missions where the unnatural are prevalent. I have requested some gear resources from Dimitri, additional to be decided on our team members individual skill sets

Date: 21 January 2001
———————————————————————————————————————————————————————————
Location: Kenosha, Wisconsin United States
———————————————————————————————————————————————————————————
Participants: Recruit John Smith, Auxiliary Delbert McClintlock, Auxiliary Tony Cheng, Auxiliary Clive W Wilson, Auxiliary Doug Nichols, Auxiliary Gus
———————————————————————————————————————————————————————————
Description: Mission was to investigate possible supernatural phenomenon from the Desmond family in Kenosha (grandfather was part of the Hoffman institute and had innate psychic abilities). We were to pose as news crew to interview the family and investigate cause.
———————————————————————————————————————————————————————————
———————————————————————————————————————————————————————————
Conclusion: When we were leaving in the van to Kenosha a straight signal sounded from the radio, Gus summarized it was morse code and for some odd reason it wanted us to go local toy store and pick up a Bun Bun? The message indicated it was time sensitive and indicated we must come together (smells like a trap of some sort to me) Against my better wishes the group wanted to follow up on this, after spotting the doll. Another individual well built and had some sort of tattoo and claimed he had to have this doll, a scuffle incurred he was definitely trained, taking about the doll it seemed to be have a dead end.

Auxiliary Clive W Wilson was abducted via UFO (if he returns will need to be watched). No signs of supernatural phenomenon this case was innate psychic ability from Jerry Desmond been amplified by possible alien technology a crystal & circuit board combination (sample & photo enclosed) this caused his uncontrolled powers during the night and one case while we were interviewing them an outburst happened causing minor injuries to some of the group. The ex-wife Heidi Rammock Desmond apparently had psychic ability to influence you, as she displayed this to make Clive step back into the UFO’s tractor beam, I suspect this ability was given to her somehow maybe from her alien allies. Heidi had surgery it seems to change her face & colored her hair she was posing as the history teacher named Amanda Jernigan (photo & footage enclosed) as the history teacher she seemed to have planted multiple hidden crystal/circuits several of which we found in trophies in the Desmond household. The Men In Black were spotted outside the Desmond home and immediately left when approached but they were present during the Highschool Football game, my guess is they are either an organization under perhaps and alien or in disguise (photo & footage included).

Jerry Desmond after experiencing all these events I chatted with him and gave him a card to Hoffman Institute (possible recruit for a later date if he decides another course of employment).
———————————————————————————————————————————————————————————
Mission Outcome Evaluation: Successful discovered why supernatural accounts were happening in the Desmond household, although Clive W Wilson was abducted in the end he displayed a charismatic personality to talk to individuals, along with his partner Doug Nichols who handles the cinematography they seem willing to put themselves in danger to get the scoop. Delbert McClintlock has knowledge in alien lore & conspiracies along with his profession will be useful for any missions with his skill set. Tony Cheng competent in physical prowess although he has made it clear he’s unwilling to continue working with the Hoffman Institute. Gus seems a tech wizard with street smarts and her small statue allows her to possibly infiltrate harder to get to areas. As for myself I feel I need to train in some investigative skills although it isn’t my forte, I’m more training in combat skills & lacking in personal and finer details.

deskbound

I’ve been here a few weeks and, as suspected, looks like I’m benched for a while. The Chief has me mostly filing paperwork. Former police detective. Seems straight-up. Said he didn’t know the details but figured I’d screwed up and got landed here to cool my heels. Told me to keep my head down and not cause either of us any more trouble. On with the paperwork…

Now, I need to go pull case files for some Recruit I’m told is flying in from the West Coast to herd a bunch of rookies on their first gig. I almost feel sorry for the poor sap. Almost…

Reassignment

As a result of my last assignment’s admittedly disastrous outcome, the powers that be mandated an involuntary transfer to the Administrative Division. While I’ll retain my rank from Intelligence, with the suggestion that this may only be a temporary reassignment, I suspect I won’t be let out anytime soon. I am to report to the Chicago branch next week.
