TIME UPDATE
DATE: Monday, June 22, 2009.
WEATHER: The skies finally open up with a constant, steady rain. Scattered thunderstorms through-out the day.
EVENTS: Sunday experienced an unprecedented raise in crime, and the community is abuzz. In the early morning Sunday there were several small explosions in the woods (exact location not being released), though it is clear that no one was hurt. An arson team is investigating.
Early this morning, the body of a young white male was found under a picnic table at Scarlet Oak Community Park. Local medical examiner Dr. Forsythe was called to the scene, and ruled the death a homicide. Details were later released, indicating this was a stabbing death, and does not appear to be a robbery. The victim has not yet been identified to the public.
And finally, a 25-year-old man named Vol Callahan was killed last night, and this is the one that's making waves in the area. Why? Because this is the first death Scarlet Oak has ever had as a result of a vampire attack. Callahan was attempting to protect his young nephew from what is described as a pack of vampires, and lost his life in the process. The nephew is reported to be fine.
This is causing a bit of an outrage, as a lot of the human rights activists are sitting up and going 'SEE? SEE? WE WERE RIGHT ALL ALONG! THEY CAN'T BE TRUSTED!' A horde of protesters descends on Heme hours before the bar even opens, making it difficult to get in or out. Despite that, the bar opens anyway – the owner is quoted in a telephone interview as saying 'To not open would mean that there is truth in their arguments. In this, and in nothing else, I and my patrons have nothing to hide. We have every hope that the murderers in question will be brought to swift justice, and we will do everything in our power to aid in that search.'
Tonight Shimmer, formerly "just" a flashy gay bar, is hosting an extravagant party to publicly open it's doors and collective heart to supernaturals of all kinds. No matter what your race or ability, feel free to come dance, drink, and be open about who and what you are.. The microphone's open if you feel the need to shout out your race after a few drinks, and free shots and alcoholic drinks are handed out to anybody who "comes out" as a supernatural.
All day leaftlets have been hung and passed out and every internet networking site has been utilized to pass out invitations to everybody within a fifty mile radius. At the eight o' clock opening the owner in charge of this shebang, Hamish, is waiting on the front steps with an absurdly giant pair of scissors in his hands. He's dressed in a bright purple suit that seems to be covered in glitter and he grins at the crowd, even the protesters, announces that he as a were himself he hopes everybody has fun and drives home responsibly, then cuts the ribbon and ushers everybody in for the booze and dancing, leaving an increased number of bouncers outside to keep the agitators from harassing anybody coming in or going out.
Finally, tonight is the new moon!
