THE SUN RETURNS AFTER NEARLY A WEEK
___________________________________

SEATTLE, 06:33:51 PST- The rain that has lashed Seattle for six long
days has finally come to an end, giving way to a dim but encouraging
sun. The temperature is rising, while Puget Sound is still one meter
over the safety highwater mark; the river's flow should come back to
normal in about twenty hours, eliminating the risk of floods.



GANG VIOLENCE CAUSES EIGHT VICTIMS
__________________________________

SEATTLE, 10:09:42 PST- The horribly mangled remains of eight persons
were found on the banks of Puget Sound, not far from the entrance to
the Seaport Commercial Zone.
Sean Holland, a Lone Star officer, noticed a troll-sized arm jutting
out of the mud gathered by the river after six days of uninterrupted
heavy rain and figured that some poor wretch had been caught unaware
by the flood: careful investigation revealed a much more frightening
truth, however. Holland discovered the remains of no less than eight
individuals, which had partially sank into the murky soil.
Detectives exstimate that the victims, perhaps gangers of some sort,
were assaulted and killed by a large group of rivals; apparently the
murderers didn't stop and heaped further abuse on the corpses before
they dumped them into the mud, a fact which would explain the rather
unusual amount of broken bones and tissue lacerations.
Investigation is under way. Two notorious gang leaders are currently
being questioned at Lone Star HQ.



RESTAURANT GUEST SIGHTS PARANORMAL CREATURE
___________________________________________
SEATTLE, 20:15:20 PST- Robert Hayden, a young Renraku executive, was
enjoying a meal at the Eye of the Needle with four of his colleagues
when he catched a brief glimpse of something emerging from the Sound
and rapidly soaring through the sky. Until now, no one has been able
(or willing) to confirm his sighting. Renraku has refused to comment
on the matter.



SAEDER-KRUPP PROPERTY ON FIRE
_____________________________

SEATTLE, 23:53:18 PST- A seemingly unstoppable fire is consuming the
top floor of the local Saeder-Krupp subsidiary and menaces to spread
further through the building.
Franklin Associates, Inc., the firm that manages the Fire Department
in the Everett-Seattle-Tacoma metroplex, is deploying reinforcements
to speed up evacuation procedures and has concentrated on preventing
collateral damage to nearby buildings. At present time, there are at
least five casualities and one individual with severe burns has been
carried away by paramedics; in addition, many Saeder-Krupp employees
are experiencing symptoms of mild intoxication and dramatic, twisted
hallucinations (UFOs, a great skeletal dracoform, meteors and so on)
because of the dense, churning smoke produced by the flames.
Although the mechanics of the disaster are still unknown, the corp's
management dismisses the eventuality of a pre-planned strike against
the Seattle subsidiary as mere rumors.
