ATTACK ON DMC

Posted date: October 13th, 2015




Earlier this week, a terrorist attack destroyed the Devil May Cry building via use of explosives. Though no TASK officers or civilians appear to have been hurt by the blast, the DMC suffered massive damage. Civilians and staff who resided there were forced to relocate to the TASK Building adjacent to the Town Hall. At the time of this writing repairs where already under way, but the damage done to the hearts of those involved will take far longer to heal.

With reports of monster producing-demonic fog spreading through most of Twisted City it seems that there is no end for the troubles plaguing our home. When interviewed, TASK's newly appointed director, the enigmatic Kotal Kahn, had this to say about those whom he has dubbed 'enemies of the state'

“I will flay the flesh off their bones!!!”

Shortly after storming off, another TASK employee approached this reporter and introduced herself as Minu, Kotal's personal assistant. She had this to say in regards to Kotal Kahn's comment.

"Our director is very passionate about the job at hand and equally passionate about seeing justice served for all of Twisted. There are coordinated efforts in place for the identification of persons of interest. We will of course keep the media apprised of any pertinent information that would benefit the public at large.”

Despite the assurance for information to be made public, details about the attack itself are scarce - however eye witness reports outside of TASK point to the illusive Joker last seen almost two years ago after the destruction of the original Integra's Arms building. An attack which at the time of this writing he has still not been brought to justice for.

After our interview, the following information was posted publicly across TASK broadbands regarding suspects being sought for involvement in the recent attacks:

FOR INFORMATION LEADING TO THE ARREST AND CAPTURE

  • Harley Quinn - $10,000
  • The Joker - $50,000
  • Mileena - $100,000

TASK RETURNS

TASK has returned with a strong presence spearheaded by resident Dante Sparda. Some residents have questioned this move, however with the recent uptake in crime, those questions have been fully answered. The recent blotters by the officers of TASK have been welcomed by many.

One Jay Kerr has this to say on the subject: "Well, as a long standing citizen of this realm I have to question anyone who puts on a badge and starts touting that they are here to protect us when everything is rather fine. I mean, it's not like we have homicidal maniacs kicking in doors, while promising puppies and instead brandishing chainsaws. That's madness! Things are just fine as they are. Especially since the bat problem has been taken care of."

This reporter however disagrees with this, and welcomes TASK back. The following is recent blotters that have been posted for the public to see, and be made aware of those who would seemingly disrupt the peace Señior Diablo has brought to us.


Harley Quinn from a Gotham Police lineup

Harley Quinn - Subdued in the process of armed robbery, and charged with disorderly conduct, vandalism, assaulting an officer of the law, and resisting arrest. Later released on probation and given a sentence of Community Service.

Prinny #4572 - Taken into custody after threatening to detonate explosives if they were not taken more seriously. Sentenced to counseling and anger management.

Bob Llewellyn - Arrested and charged with kidnapping, assault, and an overall a bad smegging attitude. Remains in custody pending trial.

Good morning ladies and gentlemen of Twisted. This is your new news correspondent Miyamoto Takashi, filling in for Trilby Trang while he's out on location with an upcoming story. As you know his absence left a considerable impact with the Twisted Gazette, reducing us to our normal fair of yard sales and weather reports. As such I've been asked to step up and try and bring you news at least half as exciting as what many of you came to expect from our fine paper. Let me kick this off by saying this is an honor for me and I hope I can be here for a long time to come.

COFFEE OF DOOM UNDER NEW OWNERSHIP

Coming out of nowhere Coffee of Doom, our favorite local coffee house known for its unique attitude towards customers, has been placed under the ownership of local citizen Tina Guzmán. Tina formerly ran Mucho Mocha before being displaced along with many citizens in the Hell embargo back in what we now refer to as 6 DT. When asked if she would be keeping the store policies of Coffee of Doom Ms Guzman responded, "We'll see how it goes. I didn't come here just to change everything."

SUSPICIOUS ACTIVITY IN THE WASTELANDS

Reports have begun coming in about monsters and fighting in the chaotic wastelands which surround Twisted. While this comes as no surprise to residents, the numbers of these reports have increased dramatically over the past month. Be cautious when traveling outside the city everyone.

TASK TO RETURN TO TWISTED

Our demon in charge, Señior Diablo, has started plans to revitalize TASK as a police force for Twisted. Previous TASK was tasked with monitoring the portals of connected worlds and trying to prevent cross-world contamination. In a statement released earlier this week by Gegoshi a new method of 'moving' portals has been used to create a tower from which TASK can carry out both sets of duties without one interfering with the other. It is not known yet if previous members of TASK will be welcomed back under the new regime but many are already calling for the reinstatement of Satyrn who hasn't been seen since Diablo closed the doors on the original organization.


MEDICAL MACHINA RUNNING MEDICAL EXPERIMENTS? MAYBE!

Article By: Trilby Trang
Posted Date: September 11, 2011



Medical Machina has come under fire for refusing to answer why it has opened its doors to disorientated time-travellers free of charge, despite stong public demand for their agenda to be revealed.

Over the last few weeks addled humans and non-humans have begun to appear without warning in Twisted City, most with no idea of how they got there or where they came from.

However, almost as if expecting this event, Medical Machina instantly opened their doors at the Integra Arms Apartments - offering free lodging to these troubled time-travellers.

Suspiciously the same courtesy has not been offered to natives of Twisted City - the free lodgings only offered to those of a confirmed otherworldly background.

"Medical Machina has authorised Integra's Arms LLC to offer housing to the refugees of time or space who have been displaced on or have arrived on Twisted," Medical Machina spokesperson Debbie said to the Twisted Times.

"Medical Mechanica cares about the life of Twisted's citizens. Medical Mechanica understands the needs of those new comers who arrive in our little town."

However when asked about why a medically financed cooporation has so much interest in the new arrivals, Medical Machina simply repeated its statement.

"Medical Machina claims ownership over this (the Integra Arms) and most of the buildings in Twisted... we're been given the run around! What are they up to?" A concerned citizen, Senior Diablo, told the Twisted Gazette. "Who in the hell *is* Medical Machina? This whole thing doesn't feel quite right."

The Twisted Gazette warns any newcomers to be careful to read all paperwork and forms before signing up for free accomodation at the Integra Arms, or else you might find yourself tied to a chair and undergoing electroshock therapy.

TWISTED CITY WARZONE!

Posted Date: January the 25th, 2009



PERFECT CHAOS: The beast identified as "Perfect Chaos" lived up to its name, destroying several skyscrapers in the Twisted City area. Just one of many photographs of the beast in Twisted City Central from Twisted Gazette, on scene.

Twisted Residents are no longer safe in their last bastion of civilised life, as Twisted City has become a warzone this week, devastated in a series of horrific sweep attacks.

Twisted City, while designated ruins by the Council, is the home to thousands of citizens who seek out to live out their daily lives. It also had, until recently, a thriving shopping district.

But two days ago a massive water serpent rose in the centre of the city, destroying dozens of structures and flooding hundreds of street blocks.

The water serpent was eventually thwarted by a group of several vigilantes, from furred creatures to teenage girls, who fought to keep the situation under control.

However, the city was attacked by a skull-faced man named "Skeletor" and his panther only a day after, causing serious injuries to a handful of different vigilantes.

They were able to thwart his rampage. However, several buildings were damaged and two collapsed due to the skeleton man's assault.

This comes at a time when hordes of zombies, vampires, demons and other nightmarish creatures are tearing up Twisted's streets.

Both incidents in Twisted City lasted up to a hour with no response from either TASK or Twisted's Council, much to the confusion of those involved.

Vigilantes on scene were overheard voicing disgust over both bodies lack of inaction on the recent chaos to lash Twisted's citizens.

Individuals who showed up on scene were uncoordinated, and were seen frequently arguing amongst each other while trying to coordinate their efforts.

"Wh-What kind of horrible name (for an attack) is that? ... silence your inane attack names, woman!" One black hedgehog was seen yelling at an individual only known as "Sailor Moon".

"I can't, it's tied to vocal commands!.. Starlight-Honeymoon-Therapy-Kiss!"

While heroism was witnessed on the day, individuals are beginning to ask if the incident should have occured at all.

"I don't believe the incident could have been resolved with a shotgun, no matter what that journalist (Twisted Life News Glen Slin) says," a Twisted City resident and chef, Akito Tenkawa said to the Twisted Gazette.

"They're not going to get me to fight as a vigilante, damn it! I'm just a cook!"


CHAOS RULING TWISTED'S STREETS!

Posted Date: January the 22th, 2009



Devastation Everywhere: Twisted Resident Genma Saotome is just one of countless everyday people who have been forced to live in unimaginable hardship, due to TASK and the Twisted Council's inaction.

Terror is gripping the hearts of Twisted's already troubled citizens, as new horrors are now stalking its once stagnant streets.

What was once a rare occurance is now becoming more than commonplace. Zombies, vampires, demons and half-demons, black feathered angels, gargoyles, dastartly elves and humans are now plaguing the lives of the innocent.

Hundreds of sightings of these creatures have been reported across not only the Twisted City ruins, but also along the various streets from Another to Atrophic way.

Twisted's already abysmally high injury and mortality rates have tripled over the last month, with no relief forthcoming from either TASK or Twisted's Council.

Both organisations refused to respond to calls from the Twisted Times regarding the chaos now plaguing the streets.

The chaos comes during a time when citizens are begging for intervention and the formation of a crime fighting force to deal with the issue. Twisted Resident and father Genma Saotome said it was "absolutely ridiculous" that TASK and the Council allegedly cared more about residents not even aware of Twisted more than residents like himself.

"Me an' my boy are tryin' to carve out an honest day's living here without getting harrased by zombies and nutjobs, we had enough of that back home!" Mr Saotome said.

"Now we've got to fight every day, and that just isn't what the Anything Goes School of Martial Arts is all about! It's about honest living and integrity, and we can't do that right now.

"Because of these wackjobs harrassing us everyday citizens at every turn, I've been forced to steal- for my very survival- meals from others like me!

"Now this TASK or Council or whatever better give us compensation for our suffering, or I'm going to write a formal complaint!"

Twisted's Council is currently at conflict with Hell's Council after a mysterious gate to Twisted's underworld was discovered several months ago.

The inter-council conflict followed rumors of its numbers being decimated by unknown assailants.

Rumors also persist that a mysterious message travelling around Twisted is the source of the street's recent sufferings.

Is this is a concentrated and organised outbreak, another ploy of Hell's council or simply a coincidental surge of dastardly arrivals to Twisted's streets?
