Biography:
Location 5 is a relatively large field of grass that is used by local organisations, small football teams, schools and children as a football pitch. Location 5 from the outside doesn’t look particularly paranormal, however tests performed on the soil, grass and local plant life showed a high amount of Reality Bending Particles or RBP, in addition Location 5 also has some type of temporal loop placed around it which was resulted in 10 individuals being forced to repeat the same 90 minute football game over and over again. The trapped individuals are for the most part unaware of their situation and continue to repeat the loop without the need for breaks, sleep or even basic hydration, however some researchers have noted the individuals becoming temporally lucid which has resulted in hysterical crying, fits of frustration and even self harm, in addition these lucid states have only been seen lasting for around 6-8 minutes. Finally it has been noted that either the RBP levels are seeping inside the 10 individuals, or some type of unseen paranormal force is controlling them, the reason for this notion is because the individuals have been seen continuing to play the game despite being unconscious, critically injured and even when they have died.
Information:
Location 5 first came to our attention when a video was shared with the title, “They have been playing the game straight for 4 hours and with no water”, the video itself showed Location 5 and the 10 individuals trapped within. Quickly The Department of Analytics took the video and also distributed standard level brainwipes to those who watched it, in addition a team of agents were deployed to investigate Location 5.
As soon as the agents arrived they were greeted with a chaotic crowd with cries of pain, shouts of frustration and looks of bewilderment as onlookers were confused as to what was happening, in addition one of the agents commented that a hound was looking and growling at something that was above Location 5, however nothing could be seen by the agents or any of their scanning equipment. As an hour passed the crowd began to increase their worry with them practically begging the trapped individuals to listen to them and stop playing the game, however sometime later one of the individuals managed to become lucid the tone shifted as the individual turned towards the crowd and said, “It won’t let me leave, why would it? We weren’t made to be free. Our birth was a mistake, so it’s only right that the master’s sons be able to play with their toys” before returning to the football game, after this the crowd was escorted away from Location 5 and given T level brainwipes. After an additional 4 hours had passed the situation immediately appeared to be much more paranormal then was first thought as one of the individuals trapped with Location 5 had broken their, and yet despite this they continued to play the game as if nothing had happened, this result in additional breaking, muscle damage and the individuals foot slowly undergoing necrosis.
After another 5 hours the agents sent out an emergency signal and requested addition T.A.N.K support after witnessing a completely horrific event which the agents are currently unwilling to comment on. Additionally all of the agents sent to investigate Location 5 are currently on medical leave due to PTSD induced by the horrific event, all agents are receiving full pay, mental health assistance and will be reassigned to “site activity” for 1 year once they come back.
Containment: With Additional Notes
Location 5 containment consisted of us purchasing the land Location 5 is on and setting up a no trespassing zone with barbed wire, electric fences as well as gates and security cameras, in addition a number of camouflaged B.W.D.U’s or Brain Wiping Drone Units were tasked with patrolling the area and taking care of any “exploratory individuals”. Additionally we have constructed a research site not too far from Location 5 that is tasked with monitoring and studying Location 5 for any noteworthy changes.
Additional Notes:
After 10 years in containment one of the individuals trapped with Location 5 suffered a cardiac arrest which was fatal, despite his death the individual’s body rose up and began playing the game if nothing happened, in addition researchers who watch the even take place described the individual’s body movements like, “a puppet on strings”.
It has been reached via consensus between The Department of Malformation and The Founders of T.I.M.ER that there is a 0% chance of rescuing these individuals from Location 5, instead efforts are now being shifted to find a way to erase these individuals from existence and hopefully put an end to Location 5 and their suffering.
