Panic Aloft as NullSig Turns Transit Loop into Terror Track By Daxa Vurn, Staff Reporter
A strange and sinister affair unraveled in the early hours of this morning as SkyRail Line No. 7—one of Veridion’s oldest and most relied-upon commuter routes—was seized by unknown digital saboteurs. At precisely 4:13 A.M., the maglev’s guidance system fell prey to a remote override, redirecting a dozen passenger cars into an endless loop above Sector 12’s eastern air lanes. The cars hovered with eerie grace, trapped mid-sky like steel birds chained to invisible wires.
The hacking outfit known as NullSig swiftly claimed credit, transmitting a pulsing cipher across the city’s public holoscreens bearing only the phrase: “We derail what you ignore.”
While no injuries have been reported, commuters spoke of vertigo, seizures, and mounting claustrophobia. VCT Officials assured the public that “no lasting damage has been done,” but passengers stranded for over two hours may beg to differ. Some are now calling this not an act of vandalism—but terrorism.
