Looking to add some spice to your blend sexual desires? Tired of the every day, used up hookers who prowl every nook and cranny of our City? Well rumors have been surfacing for years of an elite bordello geared towards the lucky rich of the City. No one has ever been able to prove its existence…until now. That’s right ladies and gentlemen; I bring to you a conversation with a man who has experienced all the goodies the bordello has to offer first hand. He is now ready to confess all the juicy details.

I have agreed to withhold the man’s name for security reasons. He will be referred to as “informant”

**********************************************
Thank you for agreeing to meet with me. First off, does the Confessional truly exist, or is it a myth?

Informant: It may exist, it may not, but more then likely it does, assuming you want it to.

Then it does exist! I knew it, now tell me where is it located?

Informant: It may be above ground, or under, but if you think it’s above then your wrong.

For years the bordello has been considered a fabricated fable created by the horny and hopeless. Today it’s a reality that will become a breakthrough in modern prostitution for our fair City. Why come forward now?

Informant: Because I’m broke, lonely and desperately need to get back in.

You mean to tell me you’ve been denied access back into the Confessional?

Informant: Yes! Damn it! I lost it all, my money, my wife and children. But worst of all, my access key…

**My informant began to shake and cry. I’ve seen emotional break downs like this before, from drug addicts. Never had I seen a man plead to get back into a whorehouse**

You mean to say you access key to the bordello was taken away?

Informant: Yes you moron! Please, if you’re out there reading this, I love you! I need you…I will devote me life to you, just talk them into letting me back in.

Who is exactly do you mean?

Informant: None of your business asshole! She needs me just as much as I need her. I know it. I’ll be her lion again.

So by “Her” you mean a prostitute at the Confessional. Do you refer to yourself as a “Lion” in a sexual fetish sort of way? Why were you denied access?

Informant: I spent it all on her…everything I had, because I need her. Now I’m out, and they won’t let me back in. I threatened to go the media! They said they’d kill me and I know they will. I’ll never be able to touch her again! I can’t breathe without her…

**********************************************

My Informant proceeded to jump out of my fifteenth floor office window to his untimely death. Luckily I had uncovered the truth of the existence of the Confessional before his quick suicidal demise. Stay tuned as I follow the lead left by my informant, and attempt to uncover the truth.

Landlords around the City Center have been lodging complaints of tenants not paying their rent for months. When entering their tenant’s apartments no trace of them has been found. “Their clothing, appliances, and even their furniture gone without a single soul seeing them pack up and leave!” says one landlord of an upscale complex. The landlord union released a startling statistic. Ten percent of the renting population have been declared missing over the past two years. With rumors of alien abduction , the Urban Chronicle thought it best we contacted the government directly. Unfortunately their helpline was busy, so we sent them a letter by mail instead. Six weeks later we received this response.

“Rest assured citizen, the notion of an alien abduction is ludicrous. We’ve investigated your claims and found them to be entirely false. Our own investigation proved that normal citizens are now making enough money to afford purchasing their own property. The decrease in rentals is a direct result of this. We implore you not to worry other citizens by writing any kind of article about this subject. “

Thanks for your concerns
An unidentified government official”

There we have it, an unofficial statement that nullifies any E.T paranoia. Sounds like landlords will just have to install cameras outside of each apartment if they want to get paid.

Back alley murders are a common fear for the City Center population. Police warnings not to enter the outer alleys have been in place for years. With the government promising a cleaner, safer place to live, it’s to be expected a crime fighting initiative would have to be in place. My informant (who will remain nameless) has secured a secret government stamped document. Inside he claims it reveals the existence of an organization hired to create exactly that; super powered beings.

“The organization plans to release its secret weapons into the slums any day now,” said my informant. “Secret laboratories are setup everywhere. Renowned scientists have been chosen specifically for this project. Don’t be surprised to see the homicide statistics lowered by next year!” my informant told me sounding very excited.

It turns out that the statistic of murdered citizens has already started to decline. One police official, who would also like to rename nameless, had the following to say, “It’s as if the criminals are holding a convention and went on vacation. I bet they're off some where warm and tanning.”

Could they have left us for a relaxing summer vacation? What would sway them away from the extremely profitable drug market. Perhaps super powered government agents are already walking the streets, pacifying every criminal in sight, cleaning up the filth that has plagued us for years. Would you be comfortable knowing that they were already among us? If this is true, then I commend the government for spending our hard earned tax dollars on something that actually benefits us.
