Breaking News Report

“We’re interrupting your current broadcast for a special report.”



“This just in: There has been altercation near West Hollywood involving the controversial militia 76 Eagles and local residents which left three people injured, and the militia is now occupying a former Toys R Us, and the police currently has the building surrounded.

If your commute passes that way, we have a list of alternate routes to take. The LAPD has strongly advised all citizens to take those detours and avoid the area entirely.”

The scene cuts to the aforementioned Toys R Us, with shelving and debris rammed up against the glass front doors to act as a barricade, the squad cars have it surrounded, but the body language from some of the officers don’t seem as tense as one would expect from the situation, before it quickly cuts back to Cadance, then to another person: Hunter Caruso - political Pundit



“Hold onto your britches, Candy.”

“It’s Candace.” The anchor woman’s placid smile tightens.

“Nothing wrong with saying how sweet you are, and look it here: We just got an Exclusive! A Skype call right from the Militia themselves! Seems this guy’s a big ole fan of mine and wanted to give his two cents. Let’s roll it! It’s a recording, so no answers today, but we’ll give you more when we get it!”



It was clearly the inside of the store, in the background, several members of the group can be heard whooping doing chants that sound less like military cadence and more like scout troop songs while waving their guns in a manner that didn’t seem too safe, but they weren’t loud enough to drown out the man in front, dressed in full camo and face painted - the olive grab is split by a bright white smile. Despite his youthful appearance, his voice sounds more typical of a middle-aged man.

“Hey there, people of the broadcast media, and citizens of Los Angeles. Never thought I’d be on TV like this. This is a call to rise up against those complacent to the criminal element lurking in our city. Do you really think a bunch of thieves are going to give you justice? They’re thieves for God’s sake!” He toss his hand up and laughs. “You might be hearing rumors and stories about what went down, but I will say this: We were provoked, they were just foolish enough to bring fists to a gunfight.”

There was more laughter from that.

“Citizens! We ask for your support, for we are the ones who are going bring in the real scums of society, join our cause!” With that the video cuts out, and Hunter Caruso starts to hype up the apparent ‘siege’.
