YO HO HO I WILL NOT GO
TERRORIST ARRESTED
Tuesday the SCPD arrested Sammy from Sinners after admitting that she'd stolen the radio station. It's still unknown HOW she managed to steal such a large building but supposedly was high at the time. According to SCPD, she also admitted to murdering Tupac, Elvis, and Biggie. She was arrested and hauled off to SCPD. Shortly after, gunfire could be heard coming from Sinner's Headquarters. Come to find out, the SCPD was attempting to arrest more Sinners due to their speculated terrorist activities. The raid was unsuccessful and the terrorists are still at large.
TERRORIST BANK HEIST
During the day Wednesday, four armed and masked terrorists attempted to rob Syn City bank. Thankfully their attempts were thwarted when one of the Officer's called backup. The robbers managed to slither away with minor wounds so were not captured so unfortunately, the identity of the terrorists is still unknown at this time.

***********************************************************************************
*******************************************************************************
This week in Who's Who, we have Eva Smith, Boss of the Oso International Corporation. Eva lost her parents at an early age and was left alone except for her two brothers. Since her arrival in Syn, she's lost both of them and is now alone. She is not married nor has any kids and it seems she doesn't plan to anytime soon either. She was appointed Boss when the last one retired having worked her way up from Security Guard within the Oso Corporation and is currently working on expanding into other parts of the City hoping to make the rest of the City as "safe and clean" as the uptown area. When she was appointed Boss, she knew there'd be challenges and chose to view them that way rather then let fear set in. Eva is currently running for a seat on City Council hoping to help keep the city safe. She doesn't foresee any issues with time constraints or conflicts of interest with her being Boss of the Oso Corporation but believes she can do both jobs fully and efficiently stating that her goals "as the boss of Oso and of being on the city council are nearly identical, helping this city remain safe from constant fear and make its businesses and people prosper". She plans to support any laws "making the city a safer and more prosperous place". When asked about her plans for the city Eva responded, "If I am elected I would first propose a bill to increase the welfare checks citizens are living on, the amount now not high enough for people to start businesses and create desperately needed jobs. I would also propose any law to give harsher punishments for those who assault our police, firefighters, emts, and other government employees."

Synizens, have you been asking yourself what has the counsel done for this city over the past year? Did you even know there was a counsel?
I am Dina Ormidale and I am running for the Syn City Counsel to ensure that your elected officials do their job! This city needs to curb crimes against our small businesses. This city needs more protection against the snakes that claim to run the streets and less for the hoes that our current snake heavy counsel seems so insistent on protecting while lining their pockets with the profits.
Syn City deserves better than what our current counsel has given us and if elected I will make sure we get it!
Vote for Dina Ormidale for Syn City Counsel

❖ Rumor Has It
**Have you heard a rumour you want to share? Send it to us.**
1. Oso are the ones that called the SCPD accusing Sinners of being part of the terrorists cell. If this is true...this could mean bad news for not only Sinners but Oso as well. Was it an individual acting alone or more to it? xoxo Gossip Girl
2. Sinner's VP and Crisis' wife, Cel is supposedly pregnant according to local hearsay. Be sure to congratulate the happy couple!
3. Sinner's has been seen shooting one of their own that works for them.
4. Kitty apparently had some fun Friday night with Psycho. She was overheard Saturday saying "I got drunk outa your ass last nite".
5. Esta told Crisis she was pregnant before she told Wulf. Perhaps Crisis is the Father and not Wulf? Esta has been drinking again...perhaps problems in paradise? xoxo Gossip Girl
6. Dire's been caught sneaking out late at night with a female NOT his wife.
7. A frustrated Boss has been seen chasing after some Sweet Dick.
8. Alister is trying to impregnate women all over the City from hoe's to member's of council.
9. Alex is dating a female who is the dominant one in the relationship and Alex see's to her every desire both in the bedroom and out. Gift them some whips and chains to congratulate them.
10. Kylie finally agreed to go out with JJ and it's official...they're a couple!

Anther Lonely Night
Written by: Dan Venom
I sit in my room alone again no one is here not even a friend. As I look through the windows, I see the sun is shining bright and heavy again but when I look in my room it's dark and dim, there is no light or any sunny trees, there is only a atmosphere of a cold dark breeze.
I look around in my room seeing jeans on the bed and a knocked over broom that almost hit my head. I look around seeing things dark and clothing scattered everywhere I thought to myself I will just place it on my bed and move it elsewhere. I stood up thinking this would be fine then something crazy drove inside my mind.
As I place the clothing on my bed I soon felt a little dizzy in the head. One eye blinked the other winked I soon fell on my bed like I was a ship that sank. I stood up after a few moments had passed I looked around as if it was the past. The rooms was dark, the place was quiet although outside I could hear a riot.
I looked out my window too see that it was raining, it also gotten darker too. I then shut the window tight so no water gets in tonight. As i shut the window and closed the curtains near the bed, I wondered to myself what happened to myself so I rubbed my head. I looked around the room it was dark and dreary there was no sign of life in this house it was quiet as a mouse.
I laid in my bed thinking someone was here. I was down in the dumps I needed a cheer. I looked around the room from side to side. I even got up and duck my head to look outside. Since it was raining no one was around I even looked around the street where there was a shop called Fresh Meat, but as I looked around it looked like a ghost town.
I sighed then closed my windows back yet again wishing someone was here like a visitor or friend. I then sat at my desk thinking in my head what I could do since I was hungry I wanted some food. I got up and stood I walked out of my room and then to the kitchen door, I opened it and then looked at the floor, it was dirty, dark, and the color was gone like it faded out.
I walked to the fridge I opened it up and grabbed some bread. I took it from the package then place it on the table after grabbing a knife off the side shelf I go back into the fridge and reach inside the top shelf. As I did to grab peanut butter, although there was no jelly but it had to do. I then sat back down and spread it to, as I sat there in the dark kitchen with the rain of outside dripping. I could hear it go thump, thump, thump as if it was a mildness drum beating my head till it was numb.
I thought to myself what I should do next I sighed and rubbed my chest. I then got up after I ate my bread, I wash my dish then headed back to bed. No one was still here no one has came I signed a bit then went back to my room. as I did the rain went Boom. I ducked for cover thinking it was a earthquake but it was only thunder, I was happy for that I thank god for my sake. I headed back in my room still feeling bad. I flopped back and grabbed my pillow on my bed I then said to myself "why am i always alone in this bed?" I sigh then close my eyes tight wanting to end this lonely night.
