"Cleaner" Squad, code name designated Cerberus Unit
Briefing on the 270 Incident
At approximately 2400 hours, we were alerted to a situation located within the rural town of Hanley in Eastern Canada. RPC-270 had already been active for several days, influencing most of the towns people. MST Echo-34 was sent in to take control of the situation and de-activate RPC-270, as well as administer amnestics to the towns population.
Unbeknownst to us, RPC-270's influence was too deeply seated within the towns people's minds, they could not be restored via amnestics. Echo-34 was beset by subjects under RPC-270's control and had to resort to shows of force before eventually being ordered back due to the sheer number of subjects in the area.
Repeated attempts by the Task Force to enter the town were thwarted, the mass numbers too much to handle.
The townspeople under RPC-270's influence began engaging in violence among themselves, purposefully tearing open and widening their ear canals so they could "become a true listener".
Certain subjects began this process on their own children, as a child would not be strong enough to perform this action themselves. Most children of the population seemed unaffected by RPC-270, the younger in age; the less effect. A counterattack was ordered and MST Echo-34 was sent back in to retrieve the unaffected children and bring them to Mobile Base Charlie for medical treatment and study.
With the removal of the children, more attempts at administering amnestics to the remaining populace were made as well as the use of Extergito Glyphs to no avail. RPC-270's power over the townsfolk was absolute. A mass of subjects began congregating on the outskirts, moving to make an offensive on Mobile Base Charlie whose resources were already stretched thin by this point in time.
Therefore, a vote was called amongst Directors and a decision was reached to enact the Hades Protocol.
Cerberus Unit was activated and inserted into the surrounding area, its mission to Search and Destroy all subjects under RPC-270's influence and to regain control of the town for Authority personnel's safe travel and mobile base set-up.
Cerberus Unit inserted into the town at 00:00 hours, starting from the west end on Morse Road, proceeding to do a sweep of the entire town from there. All hostiles were terminated and their bodies set up for disposal, the bodies of the mayor, the chief of police, and the bodies of the family who brought RPC-270 into town originally were set apart for study.
The town of Hanley will be converted into OL-Site-70 following the 270 incident. EG-2 INAN and EG-3 MUTA Extergito Glyphs will be administered on the small number of civilians who are dotted around the area of Hanley to help smooth the transition, every mention/referral of the town will also be wiped from public record. Hanley will no longer exist; and is not to be mentioned ever again following this report.
-DIRECTOR VOTE TRANSCRIPT-
"All those in favor?"
"You're all going to regret this, we are all going to regret this."
"The longer we wait, the more the situation gets out of control ; we need to act.
"This completely goes against what we stand for, I won't be apart of it. That damn protocol is an ancient relic that should have been ripped up ages ago, it made sense back then but this isn't back then.
"Are we absolutely sure there's no other way?"
"The town and its inhabitants are lost, I'm not doing this lightly. I've examined every angle, I've had teams brainstorming possible ideas but nothing concrete. The longer we wait , the worse things get and we do not want this spreading to other areas or we'll have another Jonestown. I am enacting the Hades Protocol, gentlemen. What say you?
The vote is cast and is made to be 6-for and 4-against
