The Game
a.k.a Play for Your Life
Origin: Unknown
Parties involved: Unknown
Interests: Unknown
Suspects could be anyone.

History and Profile

Has been linked to a series of murders dating back to June of 1998. The Game is considered to be a myth, but recent insurgences of crime have lead us to believe otherwise. Testimony from one suspect allows us to piece together the following information: The Game follows a specific set of rules, which are known only to the players. The people behind the game choose the players. The players do not know their opponents. The object of the game is survival.

Information on the people behind this event has reached a dead end. A briefcase containing "player" information was recovered from the suspect. The briefcase gave us a lead for one, AKAT Corporation, which does not exist according to the Corporate Registry.

The suspect has revealed more information during interrogation regarding the rules of The Game. Subject is also showing increased paranoia. Suspect claims that nowhere is safe and that he must "keep moving"; however, a warrant for his arrest was issued at 10:00am this morning. –No Bail: Flight Risk-

Documentation: [The Game: Rules]

-Once you are told the rules, you are playing the game. Your indication ring will be shipped to your most frequent residence.
-Player information is given to you via parcel transportation, or through indication rings for higher level players. [It should be noted that higher level players seems to indicate people who have committed multiple counts of murder. Number of potential suspects unconfirmed but believed to be in the hundreds]
-Player information will contain the name of a target, which player is supposed to "eliminate" from the The Game.
-Whenever a name is sent to a player's identification ring, their name is sent to another player. [and the cycle continues. Apparent players are kept under constant stress]
-Players get 24 hours reprieve for a successful "elimination", which should be used for relocation. [Suspects are constantly on the move. Send not to profile department of this development]
-The Game does not end. The only way to leave is to be eliminated. [If this is true then the people behind The Game may have hundreds of unwilling assassins. While suspects are committing murder, the file should note that a larger threat may exist]

[Case Update #2]
Date: 12-24-2010

Suspect was killed in holding cell last night. Shot twice in the chest with a .48 by a police officer from the local precinct. The offending officer escaped incarceration, but was caught on serveilance footage. A.P.B has been initiated for Kakashi Hitake.

Of more intriguing note: a package was delivered to the Bureau this morning from AKAT Corp. I found it on my desk, delivered to me personally. Apparently I have entered The Game. My participation will be completely investigative, but the ring has been sent to the lab. With luck some trace of its origination will be found.

[Case Update #3]
Date: 01-23-2011

First note of new agent in charge. Agent Minato was K.I.A. on Christmas eve by subject unknown. Subject is believed to be a participant in "The Game". No further information has be discovered at this time. With the death of Agent Minato's suspect, and his own subsequent death, the trail has grown cold. The indication ring [documented as evidence #400132] that was attached to this case file was missing at the scene.

[Case file should note: Agent Minato did have chain of evidentiary command for item #400132, but had failed to file it before his death.]
