A loud beeping sound resinates from televisions, radios, computers, and other such communication devices throughout the nation. A government sponsored speaker comes to the podium. He is middle aged, and is wearing civilian clothing, but obviously shown by his demeanor and the several markings on his jacket that he is a military official. He announces the following:
"My fellow countrymen, the Emperor regrets to not be announcing this but is in council as we speak. It has been sent down from the heirarchy that it is time for our military to mobilize." he gulps for a second and looks back at the telepromptor and continues, "This comes about as the recent terrorist attacks throughout the globe promise that at some point or another they will come upon our great country. War has yet to be declared against a country inparticular, but as soon as our intelligence locates a country harboring such groups it shall be declared. All reserves are being called to their respective bases for re-outfit, all active personel on leave are required to return to their bases as well. Any able body man willing to become a national guard member please go to your recruiting station, you will not be asked to fight but will be expected to guard your nation if it comes to such things. We thank you for your time." the man bows his head and leaves the room flanked by military personel.
Throughout bars and lounges cheers go up. The national pride has kicked in, and the patriotic men of the nation head towards their respective locations. Active personel rush to their barracks, and reserve members board military transports to head back to their bases. Transports filled with national guard troopers move into locations where police officers are drawn thin by the many reserve members in the force.
