Ziege IX breaks loose!


Karl Fischer, second in command at the Lange Okkulte Einrichtung burst into the main laboratory "Professor, Professor!!"

Professor Lange looked up from his microscope and snapped irritably at his assistant "What is it now Karl?"

Karl was red-faced and puffing for breath - Lange estimated he must have run the length of the facility.  "It's Ziege IX..."

Lange slowly pushed his glasses up his nose as he cast his mind over his many experiments... which one was Ziege IX again? No, not Totenkoloss... not die Schreckwelpen... not Ursula or Genähtermann V... Oh, Gott... not that one...

Karl continued, stammering with nerves "it b-broke out b-before we could terminate..."

"Gott in Himmel Karl, you had one job!! Where is it?"

The Professor's assistant looked sheepishly at his feet "it is headed towards Forlaas..."

Lange went white as his lab coat - after the debacle at the Okkultefabrik and the embarassment of his capture and subsequent rescue his reputation with high command was in tatters - he couldn't afford another accident.  There's nothing else for it, I'll have to owe Mayer yet again...

"Leave Karl, I'll take it from here."

"Of course, Professor." Karl closed the laboratory door behind him as he left.

Professor Lange removed his spectacles and pinched the bridge of his nose tight before rubbing his right temple.  "I just can't get the staff..." he muttered to himself before he reached for the telephone and dialled one number, "put me through to Mayer."

Yes, the story of Professor Lange continues! If you read Trials of a Casual Wargamer (if not, why not?!) then you may have seen that a bio hazard has escaped... well this here is the Okkultekorps perspective on recent events!
