Hey, anyone in Chicagoland read the Northwest Herald? There were some interesting articles today. 5 local houses were hit Monday night, all residents were apparently killed.

We have addresses. All 5 places were in Crystal Lake. 4 of them were home to religious folks (a rabbi, a priest, a minister, and a Wiccan, plus families where applicable). The 5th was apparently a city judge--reportedly a devout Protestant--and his family.

Police, of course, have the details of this one on tight lockdown, but this reeks of something being more wrong than meets the eye... We'll be looking into it as soon as we have the opportunity.

Once again, you show you darkness demon. I will catch up to you and destroy you.

Gabe...? Please tell me you didn't...

Oh...oh my god.

GABE, WHAT THE HELL?!?

Anyone here disagree with me now that Gabriel needs to be put down? I told you he is a fucking monster.

Cry out, and let loose the dogs of war!

Yeah, I'm thinking this is one of those "all hands on deck" things. Whatever i can do, I sure as hell don't want to be left out of this one.

Ahh, yes, again everyone assumes everything is done of free will, once again no one asks what lever is being used to move the earth, or where it's fulcrum lies.

You call yourselves investigators, I dub you assassins. At least Sheldon was honest about it.

Gabriel was of great help and a true asset at one time was he not? Has anyone even bothered trying to find out what changed his tune to the point that he would accept an offer that he denied not once, but thrice?

Don't get me wrong, Gabe will fail, but it appears that I am teh only one one who gains satisfaction in accomplishing a goal withouth having to shoot, beat, or blow up whatever may be the symptom of the problem.

Oh, sure. NO ONE else is willing to look at this your way.

Kei, I'm about as willing to kill someone as I am to pick up a puppy and punch it in the face. But you've got to admit he's being messed with by someone who's GOT to be taken down if he's ever going to start acting normally again. I doubt the death threats will stop, but can't we at least take out the source first, THEN see if he's still about to fuck us up?

Hey Kei, I usually don't develop a problem with women, but I swear to whatever being or force is out there, if you dont stop jumping to fucking conclusions, I am going to make you my problem.

Assumption is the mother of all fuckups and you as a supposed scientist and investigator should know that.

Dude, she pointed out that all y'all are jumping to conclusions... She's suggesting holding off until Windner's dead to assume anything about Gabe.

So...why are you attacking her, again?

Myself... ...Gabe's spilt innocent blood. I can't ignore that, for any reason. I don't know what it's like to not have a soul, but I can't imagine that keeping mine would be worth the deaths of everyone who died Monday night... I don't judge him; more like, if I see him, I feel the need to put him out of commission, just because he's capable of doing that...

I hate this.

I'm going to see Windner drawn and quartered for this.

I dont give a fuck what Kei thinks. You werent fucking there when Gabe and his pet Strigoi were going to kill me, were you? You didnt have your mind battered and then seeing what you think is a ray of hope turn into the darkness that we all know as Gabriel! He will pay for this. I will see to it that he and anyone that stands by his side die. That includes Windner.

No, its more like I'm tired of her assuming that all Society Members are gun-toting, shoot-first, slap-happy wack-job 'assassins'.

I've about fucking had it.

Gabriel, this is Shade.

I know your secret~!

Don't worry. If I get to you first, I'll make it fast and easy. Just like what you did to those folks. If I don't get to you...well, I have a feeling you'll get what's coming to you, no matter what.

You made the coroners sick, by the way. Amy's dad was here, talking to us about it. Trying to figure out who we can send your way, and how. Without sending them after Josh. Since you look kinda like him and all.

He was talking about the coroners. He was there in the lab with them. This guy kept looking at the meat chunks. And then at the picture of the folks that lived in that house. He had to leave. Amy's dad said he kept saying "four years old". Probably talking about the daughter.

I guess the coroner had a daughter too.

I've seen worse, Gabe. Not much.

I have the feeling even if I don't find you first. You'll get what's coming to you by your precious Halloween.

I'm onto you. <3

Amy, here.

We've all decided. We wanna help. Any way we can.

Even if Mitch is designated as just coordinating radios, he wants to help, too. If need be, we'll put jobs on hold.

Seems like if everything falls through, and Windner wins, there won't be people to pay our bills, anyway.

Not to mention, we remember Windner through Jake. He never trusted the guy, and always went out of his way to make sure we were out of harm's way.

But he's not here anymore...and we want to help take Windner out.

For Jake Bloodbane!

Welcome aboard, guys.

Razor, who else has asked the questions? Who is everyone targeting? Is Windner not well known for manipulating others into doing his bidding, and normally by some extreme form of leverage? You guys go ahead and go after the victim, again. I will be going after Windner while most of you are off messing around with Gabriel. I wonder, think that might be a part of Windner's plan? Go ahead and go after Gabriel, I am after bigger game that casts a larger net.

Pendragon, you gathered the information about the Ba'Al, and still you don't understand these kinds of games of manipulation? I thought better of you after reading those files you got out, they showed a meticulous tracking of teh chain of command, enough to disrupt operations in several cities, what happened to change the man that I can see in the professionalism of thise files?

Angel, you were one of the very few people that was not meant to be "in the feild of fire" on that comment. I respectfully ask your forgiveness for my oversight, and your confusion.

Hannah, send me a message when you have the time, you seem to care enough to ask the right questions, perhaps we can find the right answers in time to accomplish your goal of "making it right" as best as can be done.

I am very dissapointed in how fast the people here are to terminate anyone manipulated into fighting against them without even trying any other way, so go ahead and get get to your killing, add me to whatever blacklist you people have. I can no longer, in good concience, work with the majority of you.


Kon Thaak, I understand your view, talk with me soon, alright? I have some information for you.

Kei, let us see if you feel the same way about Gabriel when he comes after you!

Taking out Gabe will be a blessing.

Taking out Windner without taking out Gabe will leave an opening for Gabe to assume more power. I wont let that happen.
