Ninja EDIT: Wait a tic, three direct hits from a pistol to take one down? Either your aim sucks or these things have heavy damage resistance. Or no vital points. which it melting would sorta suggest, as that woul imply no internal organs.
Why's every one running anyway?

On the bright side, the small ones are a .45 and a boot away from goo.

I can't wait till morning.
That makes sense. I can't really do that, seeing as it's below zero here, I don't have car, and live on campus. And I don't think that the buses are running anymore, if you get my drift.
Also I think I know 320978wieorulgkdln
EDIT: HOLY SHIT! THESE THINGS CAN SHAPESHIFT! Or something. Seriously, I was hanging out downs stairs, chatting as I posting and one of these shadow things came up to the door melted and flowed under the door! Once it was inside, it unmelted and turned back into itself!
Fortunately, several people had bats on hand. One clubbing later and one disintegrated shadow thing. This kinda lends credence to my theory. I don't think these things are normal. My money's on them being some from another dimension. Is my knowledge of anime making me think crazy, or do we have some actualy smart people on the board who can figure this stuff out?

Looking for a good spade. When it gets daylight the rest of you guys need to go raid nearby places for food and weapons. Get Flashlights also you'll need them.

Seriously, one guy came out of a dark corner that was surrounded by lighted areas there's no way that it could have snuck into the corner. We're aiming flashlights at the edges of the room that we're sleeping in.
I don't know if it's right, but it can't hurt yeah?
I think I figured out what these things are.
The ghosts of Civil Rights Activists.
Considering they appeared a few days before Martin Luther King Jr. Day, and their color, as well as the fact they are appearing exclusively (or mostly, I have no idea where the Moorheads is) in the South, it's possible that these are the ghosts of activists and or oppressed people killed in the time before MLKJ.
Though why they're attacking now is a mystery. Someone must have pissed them off...

Zero, you're alive. How'd you make it here?
And what do you mean, make it here? I haven't had any problems where I'm at...
Edit: Scratch that. Phone doesn't work. Though that could just be its generally poor reception acting up again.
Wish me luck, i gotta leave the dorm to get some food in an hour. Going by my theory, I SHOULD be safe, but I'll bring something heavy, just to be on the safe side.
Okay civil rights activists ghosts.
That makes about as much sense as my mutli-dimesnional theory on what the hell's going on. Just to let you know though, Moorhead's on the North Dakota and Minnesota border. It's also been below zero all week. Dawn probably won't come until a little bit past seven local time, so I've got about eight hours to go until it's safe to go outside the building.
Seriously, you couldn't pay me to go outside now. Not only is dark, cold, and icy, but these shadow things? Their numbers have gone up. A lot. They're swarming in the streets. I'm starting to freak out. And with my nice view of the parking lot, I've gotten to see them take down the people who thought fleeing in a vehicle would be smart. The worst part? There is no corpse. Isn't that freaky? These things don't leave anything behind. Just a little shadowy smear. That's all that's left. That's it. I'm wiggin' out here. I think it's safe to say these things are really dangerous.
Still freaking out. We've organised some shifts to keep watch here, and everyone's going to sleep in the lounge so we can keep watch over everyone. The buddy system is in effect for the bathrooms.
I'm getting seriously freaked out here people. I probably won't even go to sleep. Which is stupid, cause I'll REALLY need to be awake tomorrow.

Seriously Zero, be careful, I've heard stories about the people that the shadow-brats attack. They say that the victims are pulled into a corner and when the brats are done there's nothing left of them.
NINJA Edit: Okay Shade, thanks for confirming my nightmares.... Shit, I'm just gonna coffee it up tonight.

Nah, too much to do in the daytime tomorrow. I'm going to play cards with some of the guys here and then try and catch some z's. I'm putting my touch to charge, so unless anything dramatic happens this is going to be the last post of the night for me. I'll talk to everyone in the morning.
Stay Safe,
Manny.

Guys, I'm in mid-Califlornia, suburban area. They're starting to show up here. Seeral of the neighbors are gathering in houses ours is hosting three other familes, mostly cause our front room's empty and it's easier to keep track of everyone without stuff in the way.
My grandpa's handed out some of his guns and I have a sword/blade collection I'm sharing at the moment. Watchin a bit of TV and these things swarmed the mall earlier in the evening. I can confirm that they don't leave corpses.
I'll report in later, everyone stay safe.

Shit, this is getting out of hand. I've been hearing gunshots from the Navy base about a mile away, and occasionally screaming from the buildings around us. Me and some of the others in my apartment have decided to group up for protection. One of them has been hiding a 12-gauge shotgun but the landlord doesn't care anymore.
I've got an old compound bow and training arrows with me, and two piddly little knives. If people have been beating them to death(?) then maybe my blunt arrows will do something to them.
I don't know guys, this is seriously getting freaky.
I'll try to update, but if I never do: they got me.

Well, I'm on the way to any store that's open. I got to my friend just in time, since his damn car was being shoved around by three or four of those damned things! Took one good whack in the face with the crowbar to turn 'em to mush, not to mention Fritz about ripped one of them apart.
Huh...they like cats, but not dogs..This means they're evil.
I can see a Wal-Mart now. I'm gonna sign off from here, recharge my laptop, and stock a backpack full of food, batteries, and medical crap.
..and Fritz wants dogfood.

Has anyone else seen the cult websites that have been popping up? It seems a lot of people think thi is the sign of the apocalypse/the awakening of their Dark Lord/etc.
Um _DOH_, people. I can officially say that Berlin's getting its share of whatever the hell these things are. Other than small, mean, and seen swarming like some damn Xenomorphs.
Somehow survived the night, and several moments of batshit crazy. Through several moments of batshit crazy. Go me, amateur arsonist. Managed to get a supply of high proof booze on the way out of the dorm ... I don't want to even think why so many of the doors were open, as the answer was self evident once I and a few others got out. At least I won't be running out of burnables anytime soon, which is nice as harsh enough lights seem to be the only deterrent that works.
I feel really bad for whistling that one REM song right now.
Doing this from a IT stand at a mall. Wonder how much longer 'they' take to figure out landlines. That's going to suck.
It's a clear day out, so I hope to be able to crash somewhere ... considering the last I saw of the dorm it was half a click away and covered in a mass of undulating _black_, I'm not going anywhere. Public transportation out of the city seems dead too, or else I'd have been on the first train outwards bound.
Fuck, why'd I have to be in a major city during a bughunt scenario? Streets are creepily empty. Don't want to think too much about that right now.
Need coffee badly.

It creepy quiet in the dorms. Given that a lot of them were probably out drinking... it probably oesn't have a happy ending.
