Vernal-Equinox is on the repository now. They didn't even bother to mix their mixtape!! I feel ripped off.

Now the story can be told.

Spoiler (Rollover to View):
I helped rescue Kelvin. It was a harrowing adventure, but we survived.


But I did not partake of the meaty bloody mary.

It was a special OPS mission and I believe you know where to find information about those.

All I'll say about that day, right now, is that it was a good thing we brought a ninja with us.

Another rescuer checking in.

We figured The Hollow Heads were going to release it when the time was right. It was a super sekrit under cover mission after all.

Those we replied to the recruiting posting in the repository and were selected for the event all got emails and put on a mailing list. We got our instructions, arranging transport ect.

We showed up at the appointed time and date. Jenpop recieved a text message with a code. We followed to chalk to the box and unlocked a hatch that had the map and message that you can now find in the repository.

We followed it down into the storm drains. The walls were chalked with bits and pieces of we can only assume was the algorithm. Also chalked with Look Behind You which cause us all the have minor heart attacks.

As we got further down at the end of a muddy tunnel with no natural light we began to hear,"Hello?". We called out our safe word til we hit a dead end. Kelvin Williams then crawled out of the muddy drainage pipe and we told him how long he had been in here and who sent us. He showed us the oscillator.

We then got him up and out of the tunnel to a grassy hill. His ride showed up and he ran off.

We spent a good two hours under ground in mostly dark and wet tunnels.

Then found a bar with half naked women and Bloody Mary's with more meat then I've ever seen in my life.

Kelvin is safely with the Hollow Heads and the JeJune Institute's grubby hands can't get the crystal that is the key to the algorithm.

(UPDATED)

(And SD is right...bringing an urban ninja with goat feet is a good idea on missions)

1. @MrEricSir Razz The instructions for the tape were vague. VAGUE, I SAY! Since there was no information about how the files were supposed to be transmitted, and the files tended to be large, we attempted to minimize file sizes by sending our selections individually. And what do you want? A crossfade? Just tell iTunes to do it for you. :{P <-now with handlebar moustache

2. I do not speak for the other members of Vernal Equinox.

3. That op looks like it was a lot of fun! I mean a lot of serious business and fun!

4. I'd like to see Thrill Kill Kult, but will be at ARGFest (Sponsored by Nonchalance!) and will miss it.

Hmm.. been looking through the videos on the repository... I have a question/theory

Spoiler (Rollover to View):

In the media section, there is a a video of a ghost-like Eva breaks into the induction center of the jejune institute.

http://www.thelostmixtape.com/repositoryofsquadrons/media/BREACH.MOV

What do you think it means? In all honesty, it looks like Eva is planting something into the side desk, such as Induction Cards? Not quite sure really.

Maybe the hollow heads know something about it?

Wobblese
Kelvin's squadron!?

Kelvin Williams, in addition to being safely out in the world (and sending we OPS rescuers postcards), has seen Elsewhere! And then traveled the world!

I'm happy to see the resolution of this bit of business. And to learn that there was a little romantic Stockholm-syndroming going on!
