That Time Twitter Fucked up (Again) The story.
@RebeccaWho sensed something was wrong so she thought she would go to twitter to find out what the problem was. She heard a shout from @thesophiew
“ What the hell was that. Massive purple letters and tweeting random nonsense?! ARGH.“She realises that it’s safer within the confines of Hootsuite and pays a visit to the wise elders @SophieBradshaw and @CheShA to find out what’s going on. Apparently it was an XSS attack. Those cheeky hackers!
“This is all because if the new, forced t.co link system, brought in so they could datamine even more. Serves them right”

@CheShA explains
@harrybailey @simonwebbon and @rebeccawho, the three great warriors of the Twitter Apocalypse, meet in the confines of Hootsuite.
“I've yet to see any of this malarkey first hand...but I'm impressed in principle” Says @SimonWebbon
@RebeccaWho nods. “A worthy adversary”
@harrybailey exclaims that he is going in... "I never usually use the Twitter website, but today I am because I enjoy living life on the edge. "
“Like your thinking. As Baz would say ‘Do something everyday that scares you’” @RebeccaWho replies. But she makes no move towards Twitter. He mocks Rebecca who for staying in Hootsuite. “Buck buck buck buckaaahhhh” and runs into the battle zone, followed cautiously by @RebeccaWho and @SimonWebbon
He is instantly attacked. @RebeccaWho grabs a stretcher and calls for help. but it’s too later for him. “It’s no use" he says "only one bullet left and that's for me. See you on the other side." BLAM.
*THAKA THOOOM* Thunder rips through the air
@RebeccaWho kits herself out for battle. Puts on her helmet and puts her guns into their holsters. And walks towards Twitter with @simonwebbon.All around her people are dropping. @TheEvilFrog shouts over to her: “what's happening?”
“Hackers” she replies “They're all over Twitter.”
Someone nearby is hit.
”GET DOWN!!!” she screams as she commando rolls away shooting at the attacker
BLAM BLAM
Meanwhile, in the midst of war the young warrior @iloveedna prepares to make his way to find his sensei, @rebeccawho as she lives in a safe position within Hootsuite.
His friend and sparring partner @_Cabble fears for @Iloveedsa’s safety:
“adopt the fetal position Jake and hope you make it through, god speed”
“Should I hide under the stairs”
“stairs, table, bomb shelter preferably , if you get withdrawal symptoms you can recreate twitter using pen & paper”
But there was no stopping Jake, so they set off together to find @rebeccawho
@rebeccawho sets up her sniper rifle in a suitable position on the edges of Twitter.
All of a sudden @RebeccaWho sees that her friend, @Kelsey_feed has been hit multiple times by the Hackers. She runs over to him.
“I broked the internet” he says as he stands up. Knowing the real source of the attack, RebeccaWho shakes Kelsey. Why isn’t he with his son, @Iloveedna, why has he come to battle? She worries about @iloveeda’s safety.Get off Twitter - as fast as you can. It's not safe there. *Pushes Kelsey out of the way of a hack attack and dives to safety*
“That was very selfless and brave. I thank you.”
@RebeccaWho Reloads a gun and throws it to @Kelsey_feed
“Watch your back.”In a safe area of Hootsuite, the members of #fluclub (@MissJayneLouise @deshannon and @RebeccaWho’s sister, @MeredithSimpkin) are arguing about who is to provide what for the first #fluclub meeting, Oblivious to the carnage outside:

They are suddenly attacked. @MeredithSimpkin calmly calls the meeting to an end. She knows what to do. She makes her way to the nearby home of her sister @rebeccawho. Covered by @simonwebbons expert gun weilding skills Rebeccawho bravely gets out her semi automatic and runs *in slowmotion* straight into the battlefield.@_Cabble turns up in time to watch @RebeccaWho get attacked by the hackers.. He runs towards her shouting “MEDIC! MEDIC!, we need a god damn medic over here!”@Kelsey_Feed is at the scene, he kneels by @RebeccaWho.
“Noooooo... I've been hit!” She says
“There was some sort of retweet going on, it just happened so fast. take care of @iloveedna for me.”
