Rena had to fight to keep her eyes awake. It was the end of a late Friday shift... Saturday morning technically. Scheduling had been weird lately, and Rena was getting off later than she was used to. Lots of things had been weird around here lately, in fact. It had started when one of the other DJs quit. Not just working, but quit college entirely... the last time Rena saw her she was ranting about how she'd picked up a stalker and decided it was best to go back home to Iowa where it was safe. That meant Rena had to pick up some slack, of course, but it wasn't the only thing going on, far from it.
As luck would have it, when Rena came down stairs from the broadcast booth to the ground floor she almost walked into what looked like a scene from a crime drama! The lobby area was only a few paces down the hall, and the normal way out of the building she took, but all the tall glass windows had been shattered, now replaced with bright yellow police tape. Several of the tables and chairs in the waiting area were flipped over, and there was a large pile of white powder in the middle of the floor attended by two people that looked like lab techs.
Outside Rena could make out two police cars, lights going, but without sirens. A few police officers stood watch around the area, but didn't notice when she came down the stairs. They looked more pissed off about being up this late than anything, not really acting like they were on an active lookout for anyone. Rena also saw one of the building's security staff loitering about, on her side of the "crime scene". Jared was his name, if she remembered correctly. They were here to make sure no drugged up anarchists tried to take over the radio station again like a stunt that got pulled back in 1992, but more frequently were seen just dozing around in the break room. The whole scene was quite shocking, but Rena thankfully had a moment to take it all in.
