Operation Log
- Raid of Adamant Corp. as a joint operation of the CIA, FBI and U.US Postal Inspection Service
- The mental state of agent Ray is suspect?
- Startled by something only he saw
- Our team under the code name BLUE HAWK, allegedly working with the FBI
- The target information was about a Millennial suicide cult
- Agent Raphael was recognized by one of the members of law enforcement present, his former colleague in the military
- Agent Raphael tripped some kind of alarm in the data center
- Everyone except agent Ray left the building without an incident
- What happened to Ray?
- There was a change of plan as Cell E requested medical aid and transport for a wounded female suspect to New York
- She had been shot into her chest with a shotgun
- The suspect was stabilized and moved for transport
- Due to agent Raphael's protests that it could be stolen, the laptop with the target data was not left in the forest for pick up
- During the night the suspect's state was weakening
- The van was surrounded by a swarm of moths on the highway
- Agent Raphael claimed that the species did not normally live that far North
- Also the bats following to feed on the moths were too far North
- The swarming concentrated on the van
- The suspect had tattoos, which according to Agent Ray formed a magical pattern
- Ray succeeded in shutting off the effect and dispersing the animals by cutting the lines of the tattoo with salt from Mc Donalds
- The patient died soon after this incident
- While stopping for supplies to preserve the body a local sheriff got interested and we had to explain the body transport and show our IDs
- From within the sleeping bag acting as body bag movement was detected
- A weird looking insect (a coleopteran) in the bag was the cause and it was captured
- In New York Laura packed the insect in a bio hazard container wrapped in foil and taped with religious symbols an wetted with some fluid
