Doctor's Log

September 24, 2004

This is the fifth day of lockdown. Damn Hawk. Everyone's starting to go nuts, and it's not just because of the ghost. Several Joes staged an unsuccessful mutiny. Wet Suit, Chuckles, Ace, and Shipwreck had somehow organized a small group into a very weak strike. They were marching outside Hawk's office while holding up signs. Some of these signs said "End the Lockdown," "Freedom or Bust," and "Ghosts are Real!" However, most of them lost their courage when General Hawk actually showed up. He managed to catch the ring leaders before they tried to run away. As a result, Wet Suit, Chuckles, Ace, and Shipwreck are also in the brig.

That makes seven Joes in the brig, eight if you count William. Eight people, and probably more to come. At this rate, there'll be no one to stand ready in case COBRA would attack. Everyone will be in the brig.

I hear, I don't know if it's true, but I heard that the Jugglers called Hawk to see what the hell was going on. I also hear that the Secretary of Defense himself called. I wonder what Hawk told Donald Rumsfeld. The Ghost didn't show up at the infirmary again last night. You know in all this time, Dusty still hasn't seen it.

Firewall continued her hacking lessons to the guys. I'm starting to get a little frightened. I even unhooked my computer from the network so they wouldn't attempt to get into it. They were debating on if they should attempt to hack into Hawk's computer, but then decided that it would probably be suicide. For once they show that they actually have the capability for rational thought.

In an attempt to get their minds off the ghost, (and the hacking) I let them watch a movie. Since Firewall was the newest patient, I let her choose. To the guys' dismay, she wanted to watch The Wizard of Oz. They shut their mouths and didn't complain though when they saw me take out a roll of duct tape. I wasn't actually planning on duct taping them again, but I placed it on a high shelf as a threat.

What the hell?! Why did Stalker and Snake Eyes just run into the back room? Oh. Hawk's yelling bloody murder down the hallway. I guess its ten people in the brig now. I better cooperate with the good General, I don't want to be accused of harboring fugitives. Then I'd end up in the brig.
