Left late last night outside the Leaky Cauldron, the entrance to Diagon Alley, are the dead bodies of a full grown stag and a medium sized, black, long haired dog. No one was seen coming or going, the nearby lamp posts found previously blown out, and everyone inside the popular Wizarding pub at the time were later discovered lifeless, eyes wide open and slumped in their seats or crumpled on the floor, the familiar signs of the Killing Curse. The Dark Mark can be seen floating in the sky overhead the pub, the only clue left behind as to who could have done this.

Outside of different Agency locations, including the main London headquarters, a few dead bodies can be found on the steps of each one, left some time during the night and found early Sunday morning. There's nothing concrete to indicate who could have done this beyond a shadowy figure all in black with their facial features obscured on the security footage, no signs of any struggles or exterior wounds on the victims that would immediately suggest a cause of death. The bodies are simply lifeless on the ground, eyes wide open, almost as if they've been scared literally to death. None of the victims are reincarnates, they're all mundanes, killed and left at the steps of the only reincarnate organization to openly work with and protect the non-reincarnates of the world. Above the slain in the sky is the familiar symbol of the dark mark, and scrawled in red on the front of every Agency building with a dark mark floating over it are the words:

DIE, MUGGLES.

"... Park employees and police officials were shocked and horrified to discover the bodies of several people this morning inside the Wizarding World of Harry Potter theme park, recently opened in Orlando, Florida just last year. The bodies of seven people, including an infant, were found dead and strategically displayed at the scene when employees of the park opened the gates Thursday morning. The bodies have yet to be identified by the coroner, and there are no leads yet as to who could have been behind these murders. The way some of the bodies were dressed and displayed as well as the immediate surroundings of the victims, including a theatrical imitation of what experts at the park are calling 'The Dark Mark' floating over the heads of the deceased, suggests foul play. People are already musing that the killer, or killers, could be a reincarnate... or just a sick fan. We'll keep everyone updated as the investigation continues."

[ooc: No close-ups of the crime scene are shown, but more detailed pictures of the deceased can be found on some sick corners of the internet taken by onlookers.]

At approximately 6PM EST, a link to a video shows up in every person's e-mail inbox. The sender is anonymous, with no way to trace back to the original source, and when you open the e-mail the video is on autoplay, with no 'stop' function. The video will play through until it's over.

The video is a computerized voice over against a black screen at first, giving the viewer no clear picture of the surroundings.

"They want you to believe it's over. It's not. Reincarnates are still being hunted, still being locked up and experimented on like lab rats."

The black backdrop fades into what is clearly a cam recording, someone taking a video camera through a long, dank, empty hallway that eventually spills out into a room that can only be described as a torture chamber, with tables full of barbaric instruments, an electric chair, a tub full of ice water, and much more.

"We haven't seen the last of these reincarnate experimentation wards. They're everywhere. There's more of them then anyone has let on. More reincarnates are suffering under the hands of anti-reincarnate profiteers every day, and no one is doing anything to help aside from shutting down a few measly operations and making a PR spectacle of it."

The scene fades out and the camera angle leads you down another narrow hallway, showing you the room 'patients' are put in that are little more than jail cells, except with no beds, not even toilets. The state of the floors suggest reincarnates are forced to go without them. There are no people in sight, which suggests this particular facility has already been cleared out by someone.

"You want the truth? Here it is. Reincarnates are still at risk. Every day. And the danger will always be out there. We have to fight back. The Resistance will support the liberation of any reincarnate being held captive at one of these inhumane centers for science, we plan to bring that fight to these places now. And anywhere that makes it their business to exploit and endanger the lives of reincarnates. Join the fight with us, and make history. We will not back down."

The camera goes dark, before a scrolling list starts moving up the screen of addresses to known locations of other reincarnate experimentation sites. The implied message is simple. It's time to take action.

Another interruption in regularly scheduled programming. Half way through Channel 4's late night news broadcast, the feed is abruptly cut short with a screen full of static. The next thing confused viewers see is two people tied to chairs in the middle of an otherwise empty room. They're hunched over so their faces aren't immediately recognizable, but when they finally raise their heads the faces of Mark and Ariana Scott are unmistakable. The girl's entire body is convulsing, wracked with tears as they both plead with someone off screen. "Please - please stop this - please! You can't do this to us. NO!" They're hit with bolts of electricity that sends them both into violent seizures, Ariana's screams are loud and piercing through the air feed. The spell caster is out of sight from the station's viewers but you can hear her maniacal laughter in the background, her own shrieks of delight adding to the sounds of pain and anguish. The torture continues until the victims visibly pass out. The feed cuts to static again, and the horrific scene is gone.

Half way through Channel 4's evening news broadcast, the feed is abruptly cut short with a screen of static that eventually switches over to an empty room. Empty, except for the person tied to a chair in the middle of it. They're hunched over so their face isn't immediately recognizable, but you can tell the person is crying. The man's shoulders are shaking and from the camera's angle there's some blood visible dripping down from the sides of his face and ears. The man, a known news reporter in support of Camelot and reincarnate rights, is pleading with someone off screen. "Please - please don't - please! No - AUUUGGHH!" The man is hit with a bolt of electricity that sends him into a violent seizure, the spell caster out of sight from the station's viewers but you can hear her maniacal laughter in the background. The torture continues until the victim visibly passes out. He's not dead, he's just another example. If you stand against the Resistance, you'll end up just like him. The feed cuts to static again, the victim and his tormentor disappearing in the blink of an eye. Until tomorrow. A new example must be found.

Early Sunday morning, London citizens will be met with a horrific shock. Two bodies can be seen hanging from the symbolic arches of King's Cross station, stiff and lifeless with identical looks of terror frozen permanently on their faces. The identities of the dead are Scott Sullivan and Gillian Forbes, two known members of Camelot in their early twenties, having been reported missing since Camelot's last attacks against the Resistance a few days ago, but the state of their bodies says nothing about their actual deaths. In truth they died of intense, psychological torture and a killing curse, their persons wracked with internal scars and negative magical energies, the cause of their deaths completely untraceable by any form of modern medicines. The identities of the killers are also unknown, there is only a note attached to the chest of Scott Sullivan reading this:

Camelot killed them.

They killed them when they sent children in to fight a grown up's war.
