President Weis was taking a quick glance out the train window when he noticed something that shouldn't have been there...there was a white smoke trail going through the sky towards downtown (in UKN). Just then it hit him, it was a cruise missile! "HIT THE DECK, WE GOT INCOMMING!!!" he screamed at the top of his lungs. Seconds after, a fireball was seen billowing upwards in the sky.
