Doujin announces Mobilization of the Navy

Doujin

For unknown reasons, the Doujin Navy has announced it will activate and mobilize Assault Fleet Invasus, Batalia, Atlantis, and the Doujin Main Fleet to 15 nautical miles North of Pauldustllah Outpost.

The Doujin Navy has refused thus far to explain the reason for this mobilization, and activation of all her attack forces.

Aboard the DN Doujin

"Ensign, signal the Fleet. We've been ordered to rendeveuz with the entire Navy at Pauldustllah Outpost."

"Y..y..yesss, ssir.... the entire Navy?"

"That is correct, Ensign. Signal the allied ships and tell them that we have been mobilized for war, and that they may not want to attend. Get any foreign ambassadors still onboard off this ship immediatly."

"Yes, sir."

The Ensign picked up a receiver and radioed for Colonel Dannon.

"Colonel Dannon, this is Ensign Apero. Admiral Miller has put in the order to remove any foreign ambassadors from the ship. We are mobilizing for war and are going to rendevuez with the entire Fleet."

"Understood, I will get on it immediatly."

Colonel Dannon immediatly hung up the receiver and yelled at the two nearest guards to follow him. The helicopters were warming up to transport the Ambassadors back to Doujin, where they will take flights home.

Aboard the Bridge

"XO, take the ship to Alert Status. That's Code 2."

"Aye, Admiral."

The XO picked up the ship-wide radio and blew his whistle.

"All crews, Condition 2.. I repeat.. Condition 2.."

The crew of the Doujin scurried about, getting into their proper place to be ready in case an attack were to occur. Similar proceedures were being taken throughout the Doujin Navy as it prepared to enter possible conflict, with who has not been released yet. It would take weeks for the entire Navy to all get to Pauldustllah Outpost, and the Admiral wondered what was going on.

OOC: 3-5 RL days.. Atlantis Fleet will be there by tomorrow night, RL time.

An exited Intelligence officer ran through the hall and bursted into the office of Admiral Nevar. "The Doujin has set sail." He threw some photo's on the desk as evidence of this statement.
"Do we know why and where she is going?"
"Uhm well no but Doujin has mobilized every ship in their navy so they are probably preparing for war. Although we don't exactly know with whom..." The man was beginning to realize that he should have knocked first.
"As long as you don't know that I fail to see a reason to get so exited. You are dismissed and next time don't forget to salute."
The officer hastely left the room.

With a worried ear hovering near the intelligence reports flying in, President Mike Sarzo called his cabinet into an emergency meeting.

"Here's the deal," Sarzo said with a quiet tone that belied the worry apparent in his eyes. "Doujin is mobilizing their navy. Thus far, they have refused to explain their actions to the world community."

Mark Lorber, the Senior Vice President for External Affairs, gasped audibly.

"We haven't given them any reason to be hostile toward us," John Newman, the department chief of the navy interjected. "We have four ships at the moment with a possible four more coming in. That is hardly going to make a dent in Doujin's military."

"All the same, we need to be careful," Lorber said. "We can't afford to get involved in a war that will decimate our people."

"I'm not suggesting that we go to Parliament and declare war on Doujin," Newman said. "Believe me, that's the last thing we want."

Lorber gave an indignant scowl, then snapped "then what DO you want?"

"Please, gentlemen!" Sarzo interrupted. "I don't think anyone here is suggesting we declare war or even involve ourselves in a war that we haven't provoked. What I think John is saying is that we need to protect our people and keep them from needlessly getting themselves caught in the crossfire."

"That's exactly what I'm saying."

"Why don't we try this," Sarzo said. "Give all of our merchant ships orders to steer clear of Doujin's military operations. I'm going to ask Parliament to declare neutrality, but begin military exercises in the event that we are forced into war. I've asked our ambassador in Doujin to put the people there on high alert and I've sent two helicopters there to evacuate the staff if necessary."

"Good move," Senior Vice President for Internal Affairs Dave Forrest said.

"We can hope against hope that a diplomatic solution can still be reached, but in the likely event that it can't, we can still be prepared for the worst," Sarzo said.

The Cabinet disbursed, leaving Sarzo alone with his thoughts and fears.

OOC: Heh, I find it funny that more nations are worried about Doujin's mobilisation than the actual "war". :P

[OOC: I don't think the "war" has officially happened yet. If it has, my mistake.]

WOODSTOCK (ASP) -- Responding to a mobilization by Doujin, the Incorporated States of Sarzonia have announced that all merchant ships within 200 nautical miles of Doujin were ordered back to port immediately until further notice for "emergency retrofitting."

"This is absolutely not the course of action we want to take, but in light of an unstable military situation, we need to be able to take all possible precautions," President Mike Sarzo told the Associated Sarzonia Press. "We will be monitoring all events within their region in the event of any direct threats to the Sarzonian people.

Rest assured, we are not girding toward a war that we have no chance of winning," Sarzo said. "We are taking what we believe are sensible precautions in response to a tumultuous world situation."

Admiral Ilek aboard the Revenge Class Battleship 'Sir William Issem' watched the incoming satellite images from Fire Control. With Phyrric's navy currently engaged elsewhere he thought it best to do the bit of traffic cop.

*Encrypted comminque to Doujin Naval Command:

We are relaying our satellite feeds to you that will give positions of friendly and enemy ships that are likely in you path, please take careful note of the thermographic images as they show enemy 'stealth' submarines that are currently active in the area. We also have a large convoy of troop transports being escorted by 4 Battlegroups and 4 Carriergroups, they will very near to Pualdustllah's outpost at about the same time you arrive. Other naval forces are also gathering in the area. We can give you contnious satellite feeds so that we may best manage the heavy traffic in the area.

We already have 3 Battlegroups and 2 Carriergroups in the area, we will make sure that you have as much room as you need.

If you require any assistance, or information I will do my best to provide it.

Admiral Lassander Ilek, Ilek-Vaad Naval Guard.

WOODSTOCK (ASP) -- President Mike Sarzo announced the most drastic measures that Sarzonia has taken in the escalating conflict between Doujin and Pauldustllah.

"We have instructed our Embassy staff in Doujin to evacuate," Sarzo told the Associated Sarzonia Press. "I have asked Parliament to consider severing diplomatic ties with Doujin and eliminating trade between our two countries.

"We understand that sometimes, war is unavoidable," Sarzo continued. "We are not about to involve ourselves in the affairs of other countries, particularly countries as powerful as those two countries. However, we can not support a regime that will suddenly mobilize an armada in secrecy."

Parliament voted overwhelmingly yesterday to sever diplomatic relations with Doujin and passed legislation that would eliminate all trade with both Doujin and Pauldustllah.

"This threat to the peace of the world cannot continue," House Speaker Hap Baker said. "We can not say for certain whether the mobilization is unprovoked, but sending a fleet of that size endangers all the world's citizens."

"We're not playing favorites here," Senate President George Thomson asserted. "We hadn't begun any overtures toward establishing diplomatic ties between Sarzonia and Pauldustllah, so there were no relations to sever. We will not be sending any kind of aid to either country, humanitarian or otherwise. That's what this legislation is designed to accomplish."

We would like to note to all nations that Doujin and Pauldustllah are allies and we seriously doubt that Doujin is going to attempt any form of attack against them.

So instead of actually jumping to conclusions perhaps you should ask them why...

WOODSTOCK (ASP) -- After angrily pacing around his shiny wooden desk for 45 seconds, but to the nervous Intelligence Chief seemed like an hour, President Mike Sarzo banged his fist on the antique desk, shaking the cup of pens for a split second. Sarzo then scowled and shot a withering glance at the Chief before finally sitting down.

"We nearly got ourselves into a war with Doujin and all you have to say for yourself is 'I'm sorry Mr. President'?" Sarzo shouted.

"But sir,"

Sarzo quickly put his palm out in front of him [OOC: in "talk to the hand" style] and said, "You've had your chance to explain the intelligence screw up. It's my turn to speak now. Why were we not informed of Allanea's declaration of war as being the reason for Doujin's mobilization? Why were we led to believe that Doujin was the sole aggressor? Were you TRYING to get millions of Sarzonians killed?"

"No sir."

"If we had gone to war with them and we lost a lot of lives, the blood would have been on YOUR hands because of YOUR mistake! You have until the close of business today to clear out your office."

Sullenly, the now-former intelligence chief stood up and left the office, not saying another word. The next sound Sarzo could hear was a faint sob emanating from the outside of his office in the Gray House. All Sarzo could do was shake his head and look out the window at the John Paul Stevens Building in the distance. Sarzo knew he would be seeing the inside of that building soon enough.

[OOC: This is similar to the role play I was talking about that got completely wiped out].

In the meantime, Sarzo called a press conference.

"We have been made aware that our intelligence reports regarding Doujin's mobilization of its naval forces was in error. We apologize to the Doujin people and are prepared to take whatever steps are necessary to correct our end of the situation."

Parliament passed a bill that called for an apology letter to Doujin and its allies for the miscommunication.

Sarzo also announced the dismissal of the intelligence chief.

"Such an egregious error can not be brushed under the rug, especially when it could have had disasterous results," Sarzo said. "We screwed up, plain and simple."

There are no laws governing territorial waters, and since UnAPS claims the entire Haven region, UnAPS likewise claims sovereignty over the Straits. The Allanean situation has been escalated because of two similar cases, we aren't about to put up with strangers doing the same. Now, can your ships make their way out of the Straits on their own or do they need an escort?

[The 20km rule has no bearing in NS as the UN has not passed any resolution governing what can and can't be claimed as territorial waters.]
