Sorry for the silence on our end

Things have been a little hectic here. I was going to update on the 17th, but some stuff came up. Here's a bullet-point list to explain what's happened so far:

• Four indoctrinated with clubs and knives tried to break in the other night. We managed to kill them all, buried the bodies in shallow graves out back. We're not exactly in the suburbs, here, so nobody should find them easily.
• A member of my team was injured. B5 is resting up after our medic shot him up with morphine and made sure everything was alright. He'll be back on his feet in a matter of days.
• Beat Fallout: New Vegas, got the NCR ending(FUCK YEAH, NCR).
•  Also, Nightcrawler has been telling me not to update until just last night; Specter's orders, apparently.

Nightcrawler's at his wit's end. The Indoctrinated have been sent against us like this before, but usually we deal with individuals trying to capture a member of our little group that's been seperated from the rest of us, or trying to kill off a runner before we could get to them. A group of four is the largest we've dealt with at any one time in at least six months.

Also, we spotted someone poking around at a distance, with a rifle. Red jacket, mohawk, about six feet, had a set of binoculars. Ran off after a while.

Not Indoctrinated. Not Indoctrinated at all.

Hunter Squad still hasn't reported in, and the blinder's effectiveness will wear off in another week or so. We're mostly packed ahead of schedule, and everyone's back on alert after the attack two nights ago.

As for Lusk, well, Nightcrawler's not talking. After the Wyoming Incident, I can see why Specter would order him back. Took us ages to keep the whole thing under control three years ago; Had to kidnap a bunch of people, put hackers at work for days, impersonate a large group of people at once online, and a few haven't been taken off the 'undercover' job quite yet. It's tied down some resources indefinitely. Nightcrawler poking around Lusk, Wyoming wouldn't have been good. But, that's all in the past; we passed it off as a failed ARG, and it worked out for the most part.

Anyways, mohawk-guy hasn't been spotted a second time, but we're keeping our eyes open. A camera network's been laid out. Multiple overlapping fields of view with a real-time feed can't be avoided if he comes poking around again.

Being an ex-Marine has some perks

Nightcrawler here. Hurt.

I was on my way to the safehouse, and got attacked by two Indoctrinated with knives. One looked to be no older than sixteen. Had to kill them and keep moving, but one got a good cut on me with the knife. Cops are all over the place, now. Never let it be said that military training isn't useful in situations like this.

In the safehouse now, and it's secure. I know that thing won't be after me personally anytime soon. I've got sufficient countermeasures in place to keep it away for at least a month. The Indoctrinated may attempt to break in, and since it's just a house we've kept aside (won't go disclosing the location here in case federal agents are observing the blog - We all saw what happened to Mr. Strahm), the Indoctrinated stand a good chance at doing so. But between the countermeasures and its already-expansive target list, it'll be too busy to come after me.

For now, I'm safe. Which means I can begin laying the groundwork for the next phase of my operation. Basroil and Hunter squads are out of the picture. Either dead or cut off from me. Either way, I'm on my own.

I'm so glad that the basement has a small armory stashed away, here.
