Debriefing Operation LAZARUS, J-Cell, December 29th to 30th 1998
1. J-cell met as per instructions and picked up the envelope at the Post Office. From there we went to the Green Box and made our way to Baughman's apartment.
2. The apartment was already relatively clean. A gun was found and removed from the premises, and a room full of paperwork was carefully investigated. No incriminating documents were found.
3. We did find a few invoices and electricity bills for a cabin, along with a set of keys, with one of them labeled "cabin".
4. The garage and car were checked, all was clear there as well.
5. We made out way to the cabin at Tupper Lake (address included). The whole place was also clean, apart from a footlocker (contents listed), including a letter asking whoever came to clean up to take care of something in the septic tank. He called it his "last and unfinished Opera" and told the reader "not to look".
6. We proceeded as quickly as possible and moved the footlocker to the car, and started pouring gasoline. We heard a woman claiming to be Clyde's widow from inside the tank. Given the fact that his wife died years ago, and that no-one had been here to water/feed the woman, I didn't believe her to be mortal/human. I ordered the rest of the cell to continue.
7. The thing was able to escape from the tank and in doing so wounded Jude severely. With some trouble we were able to overcome the creature, and proceeded to burn it in the septic tank. In the course of this, the knife from the locker went down into the tank and was destroyed.
8. At this stage we left the scene, Jagger had given medical assistance to Jude, and we made our way back to the Green Box to drop off the footlocker.

This and the burning of the re-animated corpse concluded Operation LAZARUS.

However, further events unfolded at the Green Box.

a. We found the padlock cut. I ordered J-cell to go in and investigate. Inside we found 2 persons, who identified themselves as Oscar and Oswald (severely wounded).
b. As I was unsure about what was going on, weapons remained trained by both cells. We were joined by Oliver, who kept a weapon on Jude.
c. Jagger assisted by giving Oswald some first aid. I asked Oscar if there were others and he said there was a woman in the back office. Something in his voice told me that matters weren't right. I told Jagger to assist her.
d. Upon his return Jagger informed me that she was heavily pregnant, although she hadn't been 24 hours ago. We had found out that they had just returned from an op that had gone wrong. No-one from O-cell went into any details, but I had decided that if there was any risk here, the situation needed to be solved.
e. I joined Jagger and Oscar, after making clear to Jude and Jasper to be ready if anything went wrong. When I saw Ophelia, it was clear something was very wrong. Oscar refused to see reason and didn't want to sort the situation out. At that moment he went for his gun, and I shot him. Simultaneously there was a noise in Ophelia's room. Jagger and I investigated and found an arachnid creature hanging from the ceiling, shedding its human skin. Jagger left the room, while I engaged. After a few shots, it was able to bite me. I blacked out.
f. When i regained consciousness, the rest of the cell had dispatched the creature and Jagger had contacted you. We continued to clean the Green Box, All paperwork has been collected and is deposited in the Springfield Green Box, together with the footlocker from the cabin. The garage was thoroughly doused in petrol, and the remains of the creature were covered with rubber tires, on top of the grenade we had found. I feel that this explosion, along with the fire, would have been enough to destroy any evidence.
g. The bodies of O-cell have been disposed of, along with their vehicle. I dropped Jagger and Jude off at the airport, and asked Jasper to stay with me, as I am worried that the creature may somehow have injected me with something that could overtake me. He is under instructions to neutralize me if in doubt. We are keeping a low profile at the Morning Dew Caravan Park, Catskills Mountains.
h. I plan to call in four days time and mention the code-word FIVEHEAD. If no email is received, and you have not heard from Jasper, I think i have been overtaken by this creature and will probably have infected Jasper as well (undoubtedly, he would have contacted you otherwise).
In that case, I recommend to find and terminate Agent Jasper with extreme prejudice in order to avoid further contamination.

The creature looked like a man-sized arachnid. It injects poison through bites and had sucked the eyes and brains from Oscar's skull.
Hope this helps identifying it when cross-referencing the database.
