William nodded his head, smiling, he was telling the truth, at least from his point of view. "Yes, we could, we're better than they are, any of them, and we have more men overall, then all of them combined. Our technology too, it's great, and anyway, our soldiers have so much more training and experience than they do, they're basically civilians compared to us. Anyway, if things got too hot to handle, we have loads of chemical and biological weapons, failing that, tactical nuclear bombs."

Alec couldn't help but laugh. "I can see it all now," he said. "When we're all dead, God will hold you responsible for the destruction of mankind. It'll be fun seeing you and your holier-than-thou family burn for your crimes."

"We already have, Mr. Somoza will you support us? Not only us but Sevaris and Masspwnage as well?

"Well, RB doesn't have an army at the moment- our nation is still occupied- but we have about 500,000 troops in Nicaragua, in addition to about 50,000 Guardia Nacional members there. Plus, we have about 150,000 in Thailand and about 200,000 in the Philippines, plus a few million Thai and Filipino troops. Unfortunately, we have no weapons, and no vehicles, so I don't know how we can help."

OOC: I don't plan on bordering SA or even threatening it, I just want to build a buffer zone in northern Mozambique to protect my main african colonies.

"If you can provide weapons and transportation, I'll do what I can," Somoza said.

"Weapons and vehicles are not a problem at all, our biggest industry is arms manufacturing, what do you need exactly? We will supply it to you."

William grinned before saying to a guard, "Bring the Xhosa commando here... Show them what will happen if they try anything against us..."

The guards brought the man into the room, and walked him over to a section of the room where something was in a covered crate. They pulled the sheet off of the crate and opened it; it was a sealed, air-tight chamber of some sort.

William nodded his head at the guards; they promptly shoved the man in and sealed it up again.

He then turned to the others present, "Look here you all, this is called the V-Virus, because it if it were in revelation, they would call it the Fifth Horseman... Anyway, watch..."


He nodded his head again and the guard activated a pad that released a small amount of green dyed gas (dyed so it can seen) into the chamber.

The man immediately started to cough and hack, throwing himself against the sides of the chamber, but to no avail. Within ninety seconds, he was slumped against the side of the blood-covered chamber, lifeless and still.

William clapped his hands before saying, "Who wants that to happen to their nation?"

Alec murmured, "Dear God..that's disgusting."

Somoza calmly strode over to William, and peered deep into his eyes. "Are you threatening us?" he asked, in a very low voice.

William shrugged, "You're smart figure it out; or wait, aren't you the guy who got his degree in dumb?"

Is it too late for me to join this conference?

Czar Sam Fabus

William shrugged, "You're smart figure it out; or wait, aren't you the guy who got his degree in dumb?"

"No, last time I checked, my name wasn't William Fabus," Somoza said, grinning.

"A very nice virus you got their, one major problem though, it kills to fast. Their is no chance of someone with it spreading it meaning when released it will be fairly isolated so if you wanted it to have any real effct you would have to use it in mass quantities, something that isn't always a possibility. Don't forget that all of us here have weapons like that, nukes, gases everything, we all have a WMD arsenal and can repond in kind to whatever you throw at us."

William smiled widely as he said, "Guards, put Mr. Mannerheim in the other chamber... Let's see how long it takes him to die, or perhaps, how well he can beg."

Two guards seized up Alec to keep him from running away or resisting, and they dragged him to the second covered object, another crate, which was promptly opened. They shoved in hard against the side of the chamber and immediately sealed it.


William walked over towards it, proudly pacing back and forth as he asked, "Who wants to wager on how long he lasts..."

William shook his head, "How wrong you are, that was in the most lethal quantities... In minute quantities, it will take one to three days to kill, more than ample time to spread far and wide. You lose."

Is it too late for me to join this conference?

Czar Sam Fabus


"Yes, but hurry up and get here, the fun has been going on for a while now."

William Fabus

Alec smiled and said, "If you want to sign the death warrant for Mississippi, then leave me here. If you don't, then let me out."

"No, last time I checked, my name wasn't William Fabus," Somoza said, grinning.


William immediately drew his Walther PPK and as he aimed it at the man's right kneecap, grinning while he said, "Perhaps I will teach you some manners, eh?"

Alec smiled and said, "If you want to sign the death warrant for Mississippi, then leave me here. If you don't, then let me out."


William snapped his fingers and the guards immediately opened the chamber and took Alec out. One of them smashed his pistol hard across his back, saying, "Oh dear me, how'd that happen!"

William immediately drew his Walther PPK and as he aimed it at the man's right kneecap, grinning while he said, "Perhaps I will teach you some manners, eh?"

"Oh, please," Somoza said. "I've known rabid gorillas with better manners than you!"

William snapped his fingers and the guards immediately opened the chamber and took Alec out. One of them smashed his pistol hard across his back, saying, "Oh dear me, how'd that happen!"

Alec writhed in pain for a bit, then stood up again. "Let's get back to the meeting, shall we?"

"Oh, please," Somoza said. "I've known rabid gorillas with better manners than you!"


William immediately pulled the trigger, and then moved his aim to his other kneecap and fired as well, saying, "Good, then maybe one of them will help you walk for the next... REST OF YOUR LIFE! That'll teach you not to respect my country and my position you asshole."

He then walked over to Alec, pressed his hand on the gun, and then took it back carefully with a piece of cloth. He handed it to an SRG guard and said, "Breaking news, Alec Mannerheim in a drunken rage, shot the RB diplomat in South Africa... Go get the presses rolling."

Somoza howled in agony as blood spurted from his kneecaps. His legs buckled and gave way, as he collapsed like a flimsy house of cards. The pain was searing, excruciating. Gritting his teeth, struggling to retain his sanity, he glared up at William, scowling at him contemptuously, his eyes burning like embers with livid hatred. "Goddamn you," he said.

William grinned at him before chuckling, "I hope that lesson taught you something, never insult a Fabus... Well you can insult a Fabus, but never expect to get away with it."

Before he could reply, William ran up to him and gave him a swift kick to the temple.

Before he could reply, William ran up to him and gave him a swift kick to the temple.

A sarcastic, callous remark would have normally been Somoza's reply; not this time, though. This time, he responded by promptly passing out, as blood gushed across the floor.

"This is the flight carrying the Czar of Kahta requesting clearance to land."

Somoza slowly awakened, in a daze. "Wha...where am I?" he asked, blinking, looking around.

"This is the flight carrying the Czar of Kahta requesting clearance to land."


The air defense command replied with just one word, "Granted..."

Somoza slowly awakened, in a daze. "Wha...where am I?" he asked, blinking, looking around.

Alec said, "You're still here, at the confrence, in Cape Town- William basically tried to kill you, I forget why, though." He then turned to William, "However, he tried to make it look like I did it- even though, if he knows his security is as tight as it is, how could I have gotten my pistol in here?

Somoza turned to William. Due to the severe concussion William's devastating kick had afflicted him with, he had no knowledge of his quarrel with William earlier. "Is what Alec says true?" he asked.

William shook his head, "Not at all, you can check the gun for prints, you and Alec got into a major argument over Rhodesia, and the brute attacked you, but you managed to push him out a window before you fell over unconscious... He did manage to shoot you though, but don't worry, we can have our doctors patch you up, good as new."

He did manage to shoot you though, but don't worry, we can have our doctors patch you up, good as new."

"Alec, you retched bastard!" Somoza shouted, and lunged for Alec's throat.

Gerald glanced at his huge guards. 30-06 AP barely even pierced the Lizardman's tough hide, much less William's pitiful PPK. The Imperial Guards were armored too.

This was turning into some bizzare fucking circus.

"Alec, you retched bastard!" Somoza shouted, and lunged for Alec's throat.

Surprised, to say the least, Alec managed to roll out of the way, then used his walking stick to block Somoza. He shouted, "Get ahold of yourself, man! Fabus is just trying to do this to eliminate both of us and get Africa for himself- do we really want that?"

Gerald got up, grabbed Somoza in one hand, and Alec in the other and slammed them both together hard enough to knock them into unconciousness.

"Alright, alright, EVERYONE STOP THIS, ALL OF YOU ARE BEHAVING LIKE DAFT FUCKING CHILDREN!"

Then he calmed down.

"Alright, let's just work this out, shall we?"

Jake simply shook his head, and felt comfortable in the fact he was an expert in judo, and his bodyguards were big, burly guys that knew all the major pressure points on a man's body.

He simply sat back and and thought to himself: "This conference is a farce.....theiving Mississippians, theiving Fabuses, Billy's arguments are about as good as those of a housebreaker......."

I call Godmod! Standard procedures, all guns are taken before diplomats are allowed in. You ought to know this by now...

Will be edited, forgot about that. :(

One of William's guards trained an MP-5 on the bodyguards, another trained his G-36 in their direction.

William smiled before saying, "Ah, some shrimpy looking guards you have there, eh? Can either of them bench a thousand?"

Jake simply said, "Sure. They can bench a thousand. They just don't abuse steroids, that's all, that's why they look so scrawny."

Jake then got up, smiled and said, "As for me....I can bench 500lbs, and can do judo, I was the top judo expert at Virginia Military Institute."

Alec woke up, and stumbled to his feet again. He shook his head, and said, "Gentlemen..can we PLEASE go five minutes without threatening to kill someone?"

Alec woke up, and stumbled to his feet again. He shook his head, and said, "Gentlemen..can we PLEASE go five minutes without threatening to kill someone?"

Jake said, "Mr. Mannerheim's reight, you know. We came here to talk, not to crack skulls.....that is the purpose of a conference, no?"

The lizards shook their heads and sighed, those guards looked pathetic.

"Apparently not..." snarled Gerald. This convention was nothing more than a showcase of William Fabus behaving like an ass.

Jake understood what Gerald meant...this was turning into a mess.

Jake then said to William, "Mr. Fabus.....perhaps we should call recess, give people time to cool off, so that they can actually concentrate on dividing up Africa, not each other?"

A loud "bang" sounded through the room. Dieter Thaller was holding a smoking pistol, aimed at the ceiling, a hole had been blown through the ceiling. He shouted, "Enough! Act like men!"

William nodded his head and reluctantly said, "Okay, everybody, let's go get some dinner and sleep and then we'll meet back here in the morning and discuss your claims..."

Jake then nodded, and walked out.

His first stop was a bar, to get several shots of Glenlivet scotch and then, next, to the restaurant in the hotel, where he could get a decent steak.

He walked up to the bar, and sat at it. He called to the bartender and, sure enough, ordered several shots of Glenlivet scotch.

Somoza had just re-awakened. "Claims? Oh, yeah. RB claims Mali, Ghana, Ivory Coast, Sierra Leone, and Liberia."

Gerald was at the same bar, sipping on a maotai (I'm an East Asian Nation), frustrated in the extreme.

Somoza- a devout non-alcoholic- joined the others the bar. Except, instead of booze, he drank root beer.

After finishing his scotch, Jake then saw what Gerald was drinking. He then said to the bartender: "I'll have what he's having, and a Jack and Coke."

The bartender provided, and he sipped on the maotai. He smiled and thought to himself, "Damn, if tomorrow is like today.....I'd better get a lot of rest."

Somoza- a devout non-alcoholic- joined the others the bar. Except, instead of booze, he drank root beer.

Jake then said to Somoza, when he saw him, "Hey, how's it going, Dr. Somoza? I presume the wounds are not too serious...."

Jake then said to Somoza, when he saw him, "Hey, how's it going, Dr. Somoza? I presume the wounds are not too serious...."

"Hello, Jake," Somoza said affably. "I'll be fine, thanks."

Gerald apologized to Somoza:

"My apologies for slamming you face first into Mr. Mannerheim. Meanwhile, I suggest we have all have a private chat somewhere in a place where the Mississippians aren't listening."

ooc: I suspect the general area is bugged.

"No worries," Somoza said. "Say, how about dinner, the three of us? I'm buying."

"Hello, Jake," Somoza said affably. "I'll be fine, thanks."

Jake drank some more of his maotai, and said, "Well, let's hope things stay that way.....I just want to get some rest. And maybe a decent steak-nah, better than decent. Exquisite."

He smiled and chuckled to himself, with a slight tinge of bitterness but mainly with a sense of tiredness, like he had been working hard-which he had been doing.

"No worries," Somoza said. "Say, how about dinner, the three of us? I'm buying."

Jake's spirits brightened, and he said, "Cool. Thanks, Doctor.....I'd be honored."

Gerald shrugged.

"Anyway... know places where the SRG won't follow us?"

Gerald apologized to Somoza:

"My apologies for slamming you face first into Mr. Mannerheim. Meanwhile, I suggest we have all have a private chat somewhere in a place where the Mississippians aren't listening."

ooc: I suspect the general area is bugged.


the whole place is bugged. Indeed street corners have hidden cameras, overt cameras, bugs, etc. We have satellites which can listen in on anything in our territories. Even inside cars, we just aim the laser at the window and pick up the vibrations of the voices hitting the windows.

Jake's spirits brightened, and he said, "Cool. Thanks, Doctor.....I'd be honored."

"Great!" Somoza said. "So, where shall we eat?"

"How about we fly back to MassPwnage for a couple days (implied: To plot out how to deal with DA)? This entire place appears to be bugged."

"How about we fly back to MassPwnage for a couple days (implied: To plot out how to deal with DA)? This entire place appears to be bugged."

"Sure!" Somoza agreed.

As soon as the both of them had worked it out that they would leave to discuss how to "deal with" Mississippi, six SRG guards burst into the room, led by a lieutenant. All of them had their MP-5s raised, the lieutenant had a pistol hanging in his left-hand, holding down by his leg though as he arm swayed with each step.

He shouted, "You two! You're under arrest for conspiracy!"

Alec, who had fallen asleep on the couch, was woken up. He was rather confused by the SRG busting in. He stood up and asked, "What's going on? Isn't this supposed to be a PEACEFUL conference?"

The air defense command replied with just one word, "Granted..."


The aircraft came into view of the runway, and then effortlessly, glided down, touching down on the runway. A car then came over, and the Czar stepped in, quickly, knowing that he was late for the meeting. The car then sped off. Later on, it approached the hotel, and Sam stepped out.

OOC: Is it alright that I sort of skipped through that?

"We meant, uh, we were going to go get cups of coffee," Somoza said.

bump

occ- I am busy RPing, and then I'm going to sleep for a bit, I'll be up in a few hours and will likely post then.

"We meant, uh, we were going to go get cups of coffee," Somoza said.


The guard shook his head, barking, "Not good enough! Now up! Up!"

It's fine


Ic- William was waiting to greet Sam, he patted him on the back and immediately bombarded him with more than a half-dozen questions, "How are you doing Sam? Say, is Victoria with you? How are the kids doing? Are you staying here at the hotel? Did the flight take long? How was the weather in Kahta when you left? Say, do you want something to eat right now or later? Do you have any special dinner requests? Can I have them get you a cigar or a brandy?"

Alec rolled his eyes, and muttered, "Double standards- he can kill any of us without compunction- yet he treats that MacDonald bastard like a demigod of sorts." Alec then sat down on the couch, opened his briefcase, and started working on his laptop.

One of the guards immediately snatched up his laptop and smashed it against the wall before dropping it on the floor and stomping on it, shouting, "Spying is not allowed! No transmissions!"

ooc: DA, your last post was pure gold, I could just sense the overreacting, raving guard smashing Alec's laptop while foaming at the mouth.

"And you plan to arrest us for what KIND of conspiracy? I may enter and leave Mississippi of my own free will, and so may the delegates of Roach Busters and Virginia."

The guard walked up and shoved his pistol into the man's face, shouting, "You'll do as you're told! You're under arrest for conspiracy to violate anti-privacy laws! You were sneaking about and talking in whispers!"


As he was talking, two other SRG men, each with a double-barrel rifle, caliber 470 nitro express, walked into the room, they were there in the event the lizards tried anything...

The lizards cursed, they should have killed the first few SRG men before the other two came in.

Oh well, now it was time to get arrested....

Fucking nutless rednecks will pay for this... thought Gerald.

William shook his head and made a downward sweeping motion with his hand, saying, "Stand down... These men had my assurances the conference would be peaceful... Let them remain or leave in peace, as they see fit..."

Jake said, "Thank you, Mr, Fabus."

OOC: Is Moroniycka a part of this conference?

OOC: I'm here. I just haven't been posting much because 1. I've been a bit busy 2. I don't need to talk about what I'm doing in Africa, just do it.

BTW, get back on the Nigeria thread :)

The guard shook his head, barking, "Not good enough! Now up! Up!"

Not knowing what the guard meant, Somoza slowly raises both hands.

(OOC: I don't care too much about Somoza. You can do pretty much whatever you want with him. As a matter of fact, I'd prefer that you did do something to him, and framed somebody else for it. Once I get my sovereignty back, it could set the groundwork for a nice RP.)

William took out a document and an old-style quill pen. He sat the paper down in front of the RB delegate and said, "Here, sign this, it'll sign over Rhodesia to our control. We've been told your government is willing to do this..."


He then handed a similarly looking paper to the Moronyickan delegate, saying, "Here, sign over Swaziland to our rule..."

Somoza wrote:

To Whom It May Concern:

I, Dr. Pablo Francisco Somoza, on behalf of the government-in-exile, do hereby transfer the Republic of Zimbabwe to Mississippian sovereignty.

He then hastily scribbled his signature, and with a curt bow of his head, handed the paper to William. "Here you are, Dr. Fabus."

William immediately swept with his hand and snatched up the paper, pulling it tightly against his chest as he stroked it. He was muttering under his breath, "Yes...Yes... Excellent."

Jake then got a call, and nodded, hung up, and said to Dr. Somoza, once he finished his parley with Fabus, "I just got word...Cape Verde's capital, Praia, has fallen to the Combine, and we shall subdue the rest of the islands and Enlighten them within weeks."

William immediately swept with his hand and snatched up the paper, pulling it tightly against his chest as he stroked it. He was muttering under his breath, "Yes...Yes... Excellent."

Jedo looked at him strangely, he knew they were up to something.

He took his paper and wrote:

On behalf of the Kingdom of Moronyicka, I transfer complete control of Swaziland to the Mississippi Federation.

Singed:. King Drake Jedo .

Jake then got a call, and nodded, hung up, and said to Dr. Somoza, once he finished his parley with Fabus, "I just got word...Cape Verde's capital, Praia, has fallen to the Combine, and we shall subdue the rest of the islands and Enlighten them within weeks."

"Congratulations!" Somoza said.

Jake then said, "My claims on Nigeria and Burkina Faso still stand, King Jedo. You have violated my claims of Burkina Faso and Nigeria, and I demand that these be recognized....."

ooc: I'm just going to make an ooc comment because it's relevant.

Hurry up and follow Gerald back to MassPwnage. (i'm ready to make a new thread)

(OOC: Nigeria's been claimed.)

OOC: I know that, but I wanted Nigeria. I think I was the first to call Nigeria.......and IC, Jake really wanted it as part of his Enlightened Virginian Empire. If necessary, he'll go to war over it.

(OOC: MassPwnage, please post all your African claims. I'm working on the map right now.)

Somoza said, "Jake, Gerald, may I have a word with you, please?"

Ethiopia, Somalia, Djibouti, Eritrea.

Somoza leaned over and whispered to Gerald and Jake, "While I have nothing against Mississippi, we must claim Sudan before they do. That way, each of their African possessions will be surrounded, and we can contain them from spreading further and engulfing the entire continent. We can at least check their growing power."

"Let's talk about it in MassPwnage."

"Let's talk about it in MassPwnage."

(OOC: Sure. How about a new thread?)

ooc: sure.

"Let's talk about it in MassPwnage."

Alec nodded, and whispered, "I agree. MS is not all that safe."

Jake then said, "My claims on Nigeria and Burkina Faso still stand, King Jedo. You have violated my claims of Burkina Faso and Nigeria, and I demand that these be recognized....."


"Not an option!" Jedo snapped at Jake. "We will do whatever we must to connect Togo and Gabon. That requires Benin, Nigeria and Cameroon."

Alec nodded, and whispered, "I agree. MS is not all that safe."


Immediately after he said that, two men in suits quickly walked up to him, took hold of him, and hauled him out of the room. One of them handcuffed him as they pushed him along. The other man said, "Spreading seditious lies against our nation, we are totally safe, you are trying to kill our tourist industry, we won't allow that!"

The other man said, "Spreading seditious lies against our nation, we are totally safe, you are trying to kill our tourist industry, we won't allow that!"

Alec shook his head, "Can not one speak without getting arrested, or have you totally eliminated freedom of speech? Besides, you really can't arrest me- I am acting as a diplomat, and therefore have immunity- I apologise for any disturbance I may have caused, but I meant no harm to the South African tourism agency."

The officer shook his head, "Sorry you are wrong, we never extended you diplomatic immunity, you should have read the forms you signed before coming here a bit better, eh? Anyway, there is no freedom of speech, you ought to know that by now."

They both the lifted him up off his feet and carried him into a waiting car.

It's fine


Ic- William was waiting to greet Sam, he patted him on the back and immediately bombarded him with more than a half-dozen questions, "How are you doing Sam? Say, is Victoria with you? How are the kids doing? Are you staying here at the hotel? Did the flight take long? How was the weather in Kahta when you left? Say, do you want something to eat right now or later? Do you have any special dinner requests? Can I have them get you a cigar or a brandy?"


"I'm doing great, William, its great to see you. I'd like some brandy. How are you doing." Sam then looked over, watching Alec getting pulled out of the building. "What's that loser doing here?" He asked William with a notable tone of disgust.

William grinned, "He's being arrested for conspiracy..." He said.

The officer shook his head, "Sorry you are wrong, we never extended you diplomatic immunity, you should have read the forms you signed before coming here a bit better, eh? Anyway, there is no freedom of speech, you ought to know that by now."

They both the lifted him up off his feet and carried him into a waiting car.

Alec smiled, and said, "If I don't report within 72 hours, Madrid will assume that I'm dead- and we will begin hostilities. Now, release me, or, I assure you, it won't be pretty."

"Not an option!" Jedo snapped at Jake. "We will do whatever we must to connect Togo and Gabon. That requires Benin, Nigeria and Cameroon."

Jake, who by now left, had one of his bodyguards act on his behalf and say, laughing and saying, "Look, I can give you a land corridor and travel rights over those areas.....but bear in mind, I will not budge!"
