The employees of Pharaoh’s Bookshop had gathered for a simple celebration of the success of their business late Monday night at Lulu’s.  Pharaoh’s owner Keiran MacClawden was busy tossing back drinks and sharing a few laughs with employees Amber Knight, Erica Najarian, Vie Bearsfoot and Jennie Irelund when the joyous gathering was brought to a screeching halt by the sight of Asylum Doctor Roisin Fitzgerald wielding a knife and without hesitation, plunging it into the backside of Kyo Niimura, owner of Lulu’s Bar and Grill, who happened to have the misfortune of being the nearest person to the entrance.  Heroically jumping into action, Keiran leaped over the counter and managed to restrain the crazed doctor while the women of Pharaoh’s tended to a very injured Kyo until police arrived.  DEPD officers quickly slapped cuffs on Dr. Fitzgerald and hauled her down to the station.  Despite receiving a stab wound himself and with blood dripping down his stomach, Keiran quickly called upon his EMT training and attended to the Kyo, sewing up the diminutive man’s punctured posterior right there in the bar.  One shudders to think just what horrors might have befallen poor Kyo had the employees of Pharaoh’s not chosen to have an outing there that very night.

Further questions remain as to Dr. Fitzgerald’s motive for the attack.  It was noted on the scene that her pupils were dilated in an abnormal fashion suggesting she was on a psychotropic drug of some sort which may have caused her viscous and quite public attack.  Then again, this reporter was close enough to the scene to pick up the doctor shouting this phrase while restrained “I failed her.  Let me go.  She’s going to come for me!”  Who the “she” is in her drug filled rant, is uncertain however, the naughty doctor has been previously linked to the ruthless cult known as “Adherents of Belial”.  Perhaps “she” is cult co-leader Alice Lambert and Dr. Fitzgerald was merely carrying out orders handed down by her psychopathic cult leaders hell bent on tormenting the citizens of Dead End.  The question then becomes, was Kyo himself a target and if so, for what reason?  Or was he merely at the wrong place at the wrong time?  Perhaps Dr. Fitzgerald can spend her time in jail giving out that answer.
