Really?! I don't think so! This is not the Loch Ness monster. This is a great disappointment if you ask me! All this is...is some giant worm or snake. I want to say it resembles a snake more then anything. Talk about a let down. People get so hyped up over things and are so quick to label it when there's not enough proof to back it up. And they say our paper is a tabloid.

This is as bad as the zombie apocalypse running around the internet. It's pretty bad when the government has to come out and make an actual announcement over it and then deny being involved. Typical.

What's next guys? I think it's time to bring out the dice and roll out my fate.

HaHa!Ha!Ha! It sucks to be you all! I have to say it was quite entertaining watching the chaos unfold and for once not being involved! However, the damn community has demanded me to make a post....so in turn you to get to be graced by my presence. Amazing, I'm still here.

I'll admit that having retired from working on the Lone Gunmen paper....things have been pretty dull. It's hard sitting back and watching others take over the work you've spent a good portion of your life on. Sometimes I miss being part of the action...digging out the truth and bringing it to the surface. Knowing that all the hard work was worth it in the end. I certainly don't miss the jail time or the obnoxious cops.

I guess I'm going to have to figure out something to fill that void. Playing World of Warcraft or Skyrim till the wee hours in the morning isn't cutting it. Have any of you managed to reach a point in life where you got to do what you wanted....what do you guys do? It feels strange to even ask something like this. I never thought I would get this far.

Has anyone noted the lack of viruses of late? It's starting to make me paranoid. I'm not counting the cupcake or the golden apple.

[OOC: Here is a birthday log . The event can continue on there. ]

[There's a small furry hamster staring into the screen. It appears to be in distress. There's part of a half eaten golden apple near the hamster. Unless, you're an animal all you get is a bunch of squeaking.]

Someone, help me! I don't want to be cat food!

Mark your calenders, folks, December 21st 2012 is your scheduled D date. How many of you actually follow that nonsense and believe in it? I caught my friend Jimmy trying to stock up for the possibility of the end of the world and hit him upside the head with our paper. That sort of thing is for a tabloid. I may believe in a lot of strange things, but this is not one of them.

Granted the Mayans have been correct on a few things, but to mark the end of the human civilization? I don't know about you, but we're expected to have the alien race come and invade our world. Water or foiled hats aren't going to stop them. What strange prophecies do you guys have? Have any of them come true? Were you able to change them?

Speaking of aliens... HEY DIB! I decoded your message you left me. Sorry it took so long! I've been pretty busy between supervising the Lone Gunmen newspaper and my own job....I was lucky to squeeze that in. Sadly, I had cancel a few D&D sessions much to my friends' amusement. Oh, the mockery I had to deal with later for it. Have you learned any more about that particular invasion, since then?

So, what's all your theories on what happened and who caused it? I'm all ears. I turn my back on the community for a day or two and we're given a whole new place. Not that I'm complaining! What else did I miss?

First of all...many apologies to those who witnessed the last video. I wasn't aware that the community was recording it. In ways, I'm actually glad the community interfered (for once). A big thanks to Kefka! Let me know, if there's anything I can do in return! Crocker won't let me leave just yet. He has me staying at his place for the time being.

As for the rest of the team...The gangs alright and the paper is suddenly back in buisness! Thankfully none of them remember what happened. It would have been really difficult trying to explain a nonexistent community and a video game villain coming to the rescue. I think it's safe to say that things will be okay for now. Although, we're taking the back seat in this. We're letting our friends Jimmy and Yves continue our work. It's time we moved on.

Remember, the truth will always be out there. It's all a matter of looking for it and how you go about telling it.

The video turns on and it seems to be blurry. One can still hear the sound of scuffling feet as a group of people are running down an empty corridor. "Guys, he’s over here! Yves!" repeated shouts can also be heard. The video finally clears and Langly appears to be running, shouting for Yves. Two other guys are with him as well. One is dressed in a business suit (Byers) and the other who is the smallest of the three is wearing a leather jacket (Frohike). They appear to be out of breath and calling for Yves as well.

The three of them stop and appear to be cornering a tall guy also dressed in a business suit. He’s smirking and telling them how they lost. The airborne virus will be unleashed and their effort was in vain. Langly looks at the other two members and the three of them nod.

"Whatever it takes," Byers says in a soft, but firm voice.

Frohike then hits the fire alarm sending causing the fire doors to descend from the ceiling and barricade them in a small section of the corridor. Their only access is a small window where they can see their friends running toward them.

Their friends, Jimmy and Yves show up in time to watch helpless as the guys are barricaded in. Jimmy struggles to open the door, but is told to stop. They step aside to show how their captured party member, had collapsed. His body was trembling and purple fluorescent ooze spilled out onto his chest and down the floor.

"It’s over, Jimmy. We fought a good fight. It’s now your turn to finish our work. Don’t give up. The people need you and Yves."

Jimmy and Yves look at them in despair. Helplessly, Jimmy places his hand on the window. The video ends as they each place a hand where Jimmy’s hand rests on the window.


[OOC: This is the final canon move for Langly. It should be backdated to around a few days after the 18th of November and Crocker's rescue. Crocker will have returned back to his world long before this happens. Technically, in the episode, the Lone Gunmen die. However, Kefka will be doing a little changing, in which they will be spared from death. Icly the responses won't be till a few days after this takes place. Here is the original oost If anyone else still wishes to help. That option is open as well!]

Yves explained what happened. She's been chasing after a couple of guys who created a deadly virus. Once airborne it can spread and kill everyone in the area They are considered the carriers of said virus and are willing to do what it takes to spread it. She managed to kill one of the men and had to remove the infected cartilage. The only way to do it was by burning it. The guy we interrupted turned out to be a decoy. They were trying to mislead Yves away from them. We figured out where the actual guy is going and are heading there now. Hopefully this helps clean up the mess we caused and free her name. We could even get a story out of this!

Good news:

We found our friend. No, she's not a super soldier. I can't believe they believed him. Tch.

Bad news:

I think we made things worse...

How dare they?! I can’t believe they had the nerve to bring him here! Fletcher Morris. He used to be part of the Men in Black as he used to say and dealt with the paranormal activity. He also helped create false stories to decoy people away from the real thing. He’s also a liar and a con artist. 95 percent of what he says is not true.

Fletcher is also a big reason why we aren’t doing too well. He had our friend, Yves taken. We’ve used the last of our funds to track her and try to find her again. Unfortunately, that hasn’t gone well. Our friend Jimmy arrived shortly after Fletcher to tell us that the search hasn’t gone well. He suspects she may have killed someone and was rather upset by the knowledge.

Currently, we’re trying to track her down to show to Agent Dogget and Agent Reves that they’re wrong. And that she’s not a Super Soldier as Morris claims she is. Morris had told them that she was a Super soldier as a way to gain their attention. Yves a Super Soldier? I would like to know what he was smoking.

[[OOC: This is just part one of the canon move Langly.This is referring to the episode Jump Shark in season 9 of X-Files. It's only about to get worse from here on out for Langly and his frieds.]]

I saw that secret. I appreciate the jester. We will make it. We always do. Right now it's just a slow time for us.

In the mean time...how many of you celebrate Halloween? What does it mean for you?

[The video turns out with out anyone noticing the fact that it's on. It shows a very empty office. A few photos are hanging on a string and a poster here are there are still on the wall. Save for an old couch, an empty table with an old model of a computer on it....the place is empty. It finally focuses on three men standing near the door. One of the men, with long blond hair and glasses, is holding a small laptop protectively. He doesn't look too pleased and shouts back at them.

"What do you mean we have to sell this computer?"

"Langly, come on. We need to make the rent. We pretty much sold everything else. And we still have the old computer to use if necessary!"

A tall thin man dressed in a business suite claimed. He looked nervous and kept looking to the shorter older man dressed in a leather jacket for back up. However, he didn't appear to be interested in wanting to help.

"No, you're not selling this computer. Sell that old thing. It's a beast. We have everything on this computer. It would put us back even further." Langly shouted back. "Not to mention you would be taking my life away!"

He clutched the computer protectively and slowly stepped closer back towards the door.

"You know when I agreed to join this little news paper....I didn't think it would end up this way. I could be doing a lot more on my own with out the two of you dragging me down!"

The other two gave exasperated looks at each other. The feed ends abruptly.]

[[OOC: Langly will respond a few hours later after he manages to save his computer from his friends. At this point in the series, The Lone Gunmen are not doing well and have been slowly selling their equipment in order to survive. They are too proud to ask for money or to force their F.B.I. friends to pay for their services, when in a sense their cases provide them stories. Since, Langly only knows English and binary he's not really affected by the current virus. He will be having a hard time reading responses and other people's posts.]]

[[OOC: Handy translator]]

Curse this place! What is with this community for dragging me back? Didn't it have enough fun of torturing me for a year? It's bad enough my co-workers think I'm crazy when I tried to show that this place existed.

Fine.

I'll make use of this place. Tell me community, what are your theories of how this place operates? Has anyone ever gotten close to figuring it out, since I was last here? While we are at it, humor with your conspiracy theories.

The name's Langly for those who don't know me. I work for a newspaper called the Lone Gunmen. One last thing...who here plays Dungeons and Dragons?

Can I get a world hopper to pick up Tim and bring him to my place? Let me know what I can do in return.

[The video clicks on and you see the Lone Gunmen's dimly lit office and loud music in the background playing, but instead of seeing Langly sitting in front of the computer there's a tiny hamster, who doesn't look very happy. In it's paws is a tiny sign that looks like it was chewed around the corners. On the sign it reads HELP ME! in barely legible letters. It's hard to type let alone write in tiny paws.]

Reference here

[[OOC: This is all due to Eris who decided that Langly would be her new toy to play with.]]

I don't think this question has been asked. I'm bored, so amuse me with your stories and explanations. How many of you believe in mythical creatures like the loch ness monster, sasquatch, and other oddities? Those from different worlds and cultures, what stories would you have that fit in to this category?

Byers, you need to invest in clothing that's not a business suit. Maybe some color too. Browns, grays, dark greens, black....they're so boring. Thankfully, I invested in some contacts a while back so I had those to rely on. Freaking virus. At least this is a tame virus compared the last few.

[Langly can be seen holding a baseball bat. He has a frightened look on his face as he's trying to swing the bat at the on coming zombies. Some zombies can be seen on the ground. His home an office are in shambles. One of his roommates, has pulled out a fire extinguisher to put out a fire that started.]



As you can see the zombies didn't spare my world and managed to break through our security. Can someone world hop us out of this mess? On a good note we have an interesting story for our paper. Zombie apocalypse, front page, baby.

....Don't say one word, Tommy.
