Unknown Enemies, 2; Us, 0
6 September 2011~
It was back to Supers this week, and things started rolling right away with Craig and Kevin getting kidnapped, and Brian only narrowly avoiding that same fate. Kevin's martial artist was approached at his dojo after class by a new student who apparently drugged him with some sort of injection. Kevin could struggle only briefly before succumbing to unconsciousness and being hauled off in an ambulance we later discovered to be stolen. Craig was apprehended on the set of his latest movie, first feeling sick and then passing out. Brian was called in on an extermination job, only to find himself growing rapidly fatigued while talking with his "client." He managed to move away a little, then hopped in his van and drove off. He was pursued by some rather persistent generic dark sedans, then got to a location where he could escape by flight, whereupon he did escape capture and warn the rest of us- although he didn't get much of a look at his attackers.
We deployed fairly quickly, but discovered that Craig and Kevin were missing. Searching their apartments yielded nothing, and another search of the "job" that Brian was looking into led only to our discovery that there was some kind of electronic device on the business's phone that seems to have routed an external call through their phone lines, so that it would appear to have emanated from their location. More dead ends.
We decided to call our FBI contact (who Brian has now dubbed Dana Mulder) and ask for help, which he graciously provided. We also decided to have Jeff try sorcerous traces on our buddies. The net result was that we discovered that Craig and Kevin are in some sort of truck, apparently sedated, and moving south and west toward Nevada or California, and that the government might have a very secret counter-supers group forming up to look into beings like ourselves. Mulder claims not to know any names or details, but rumors have evidently begun percolating through the Bureau, and that certainly seems to fit our (admittedly sketchy) facts.
Hopefully, we'll be able to develop some actual leads soon, before we have to resort to the rather unpopular plan of dangling Brian out as bait, and waiting to see who snatches him up.
