Black Out

5:30 pm Wulfgar

Its been ten minutes since the power went out. Things seem to be stedily getting worse, and there is no sign of the power coming back on.

5:35pm

Team leader just radioed. Have to get downtown to the warehouse. Traffic is thick as lead though so it will take me a while. Then again he was coming from the ridges of Renton overlooking the city.

5:50pm

All hell seems to be breaking loose here in the city. Grid is out, power is out. Nothing seems to work in any area. I think the entire city is down.

6:00pm

Radio is set for the emergency band now. This should help me avoid the worst of the accidents and trouble.

7:15pm

held up by traffic, even on foot traveling is hell. Subway and monorail down, some girl at the station I tried said the train derailed with her boyfriend on it upstream from us. Highways are practically a no go for motor traffic due to the dead grid and accidents. Hell its not even safe to ride a bike.
