I have taken into custody today a kindergarten classroom from one of Euroslavias schools. If the people of Euroslavia ever wish to see these children in one piece, they must fuck off and denounce their existence as a country. I hope for your sake that you comply to my wishes. Stick that in your pipe and smoke it.

Diadem Palace, Risban City

"They've taken some school children in Euroslavia hostage?" asked the Emperor, somewhat bewildered.

"Yes, sir," said Alexander Perkins, the Foreign Minister. "They are demanding in return for the children and Euroslavia denounces its government..."

"I see..." said Emperor Scorpius, not really seeing at all.

Grand General Charles Skops grinned with the glee. It was the perfect excuse for a war. "Sir, permission to test our new warheads?"

Scorpius sighed, rubbing his head. "Permission granted. If this is going to turn into another Muru, though, let's try get it over with quickly, eh?"




Imperial Statement

By decree of the Grand Imperium of Risban, the nation of Machinist is to become either a vassal state or a nuclear wasteland should they not return the captured children to the proud nation of Euroslavia.

Until this demand is met, we are taking the nation of Machinist hostage. A carrier fleet has been dispatched towards the ignorant nation, and a classified number of nuclear warheads are also aimed and ready to fire. The nation shall remain our hostage until the children are freed. Every child's death will be met 100,000-fold against Machinist.

We hope, for your sake, you comply to our wishes.

~Emperor R.A. Scorpius~

"DAMN THEM!" stormed the Prince. "They've pulled some stupid shit in their short time as a nation, but this time, they've gone TOO FAR!"

He picked up the phone and called General Sherman's office.

"General? It's me. I want you to launch an airiel bombardment of the nation of Machinst. I want you to attack both government and civilian infostructure. BE MERCILESS, SHERMAN! And when their country is completely flattened by bombs, I want you to land an army group on their lands. That's right general: We're taking over their country! Good luck and God's Speed, General!"

"But they were our hostages first," barked General Skops, who almost seemed like he was on the verge of tears. "They can't just waltz in and blow them all up. We put the gun to their heads first!"

"Oh, do shut up already," sighed Minister Perkins, rubbing his head. "I'm sure some other weak, pathetic country will come along for your war-hungry attitude to be satiated on."

"Look at it this way," said the Emperor. "We won't have the civil liberties loonies, tree huggers, and peace activists bugging us about wiping some pathetic, arrogant nation from the face of the Earth."

"True," agreed Perkins with a nod.

"But I want a war!" insisted the General. He was regarded with rolled eyes, and decided to lock himself away in his office with some tea, some popcorn, and and his very missile button launcher to watch on T.V. as Wilhelmsborough blew up the Machinists.

Subaru was horrofied, and furious. "Spinless creatures! Manipulating innocent children, to get what they want! Take a message:"


As a Royal Offical, and Political Leader, I beg of you abandon your terroist campaing, fight like soliders, not cowards hiding behind little children. If you have any honor, you'll do as you are told by the world. Don't let my age fool you, or the fact that I am female, I have influence, and we have allies that would agree. Rarley would you see me break my pacifistic stance.

{OOC: Do you have Euro's permission to do this?}

[ooc:] I know, this looks suspiciously nonconsenting... I wonder why...

It is non consenting and now our GADF is about to begin attacks on your nation. Surrender now or we will bomb you straight to hell.

OOC: That's a horrible mix of IC and OOC that, really, one would not expect, given the context. You can't have it both ways, eh. Either it's consenting RP and you bomb the guy's nation, or it's not consenting and you leave the IC out of it. How you can appreciate the difference between consent and non-consent and still post that message is quite beyond me.
Anyhoo, Euroslavia might still decide to play it: when BG was new and desperately poor, one of our theatres was attacked by terrorists from a troublesome nation that did not ask permission, and that was pointed out to the player, but then we went with it anyway, and drugged their water. Plus won tonnes of sympathy and support from people we'd later undermine as capitalist swine, but I digress...

OOC: Being a Mod, I seriously doubt that Euroslavia has the time to respond to RP's on top of his / her Modly duties. I expect this to be pretty much ignored.

IC:

DEMOCRATIC SOVIET REPUBLIC OF KAHANISTAN
Ministry of Foreign Affairs

The Government of Kahanistan condemns this terrorist act against the civilian population of the Modified Freedom Forces of Euroslavia. If the Rogue Nation of Machinist has a dispute with the Government of Euroslavia, we advise directing the Machinist Ambassador to Euroslavia to take up these disputes with the Government of Euroslavia.

The Government of Euroslavia will be more likely to negotiate if the children are released, as most nations do not negotiate with terrorists. Kahanistan does not, and we doubt that Euroslavia does, either.

Signed,
Margaret Delray,
Minister of Foreign Affairs

The Nationalistic State of The Last Anarchy Order
Presidential Suite

We, The LAO, condemn your actions. This is considered an attack on the region, and thus, a terroristic act on us. If the children are not released, we will be forced to act on a military accord. Release the children, or face the consequences.

The Supreme Chancellor

"Never thought I'd say this, but I fully support Gyrobot in this endeavor. If you do not surrender, you will not only incur Gyrobot's wrath, but ours, as well."

--Generalissimo J.L.--

I am the official noobslayer, it is my godgiven duty that and succeeding char as the Ped Comet.

[OOC: pfffft, Euroslavia is used to this. Their children are born from their father's head, sword in the right hand, and shield in the left. They are trained to kill from the day they are born. They are taught so well they can teach the art of war to all other petty nations in the first year of their existance - it is to say, each baby is more capable than Jesus. Sorry my friend, but you have screwed yourself over.]

OOC: Lovely mix of OOC reactions into an IC storyline.

If you could be slightly more specific as to how many men are in the school, and what type of school it is, I'd appreciate it.


IC: After what had seemed like a reversal of the international policies held by Euroslavia, the nation returned to the world scene after a long period of maintaining isolationism, in an event that shocked not only the nation, but the world. It had been a countless amount of years since Euroslavia has ever been threatened by a terrorist attack, and now, it had resurfaced; though this time, it had occurred in an area of which no one expected it to happen, a school...


The sun had begun to stretch it's way across the horizon as another day came forth. The time of daylight increased slowly per day, until it would reach the point of the longest sunlight, and from there, the temperature would begin to decrease. The dreaded long, winter nights were tiring for the typically active Euroslavian people. On a normal day, one could easily spot every park across the nation being filled with citizens and tourists alike. There was too much going on to stay inside the house and do nothing. Along with that came the almost non-existant fear of any sort of terrorist attack.


Lady Destra nos Thiendrel extended her eyes over towards her door. She felt it. Something ...different was happening. Almost immediately, her second-in-command, Lady Marona walked through the door with a grim look upon her face. She knew something was up. Marona wasn't the type to look down. It was almost as if she were on some sort of medication that made her smile 24/7, and that got on Destra's nerves; but at the same time, seeing Marona frown must mean that something very serious either had happened or is happening.

"It seems we have a ...situation on our hands, Destra. A school full of children has been ... taken over by a group of terrorists. They demand that..." as she trailed off and turned deep red.

"What? What do they demand?" asked Destra with a slightly noticeable anger within her vocal cords.

They both paused for a few seconds as they stared into each others eyes.

"They demand that we denounce our existance as an independent nation."

Another awkward silence filled the room. Euroslavia denouncing their own independence? What kind of idiots did they take the leader of Euroslavia to be?

Immediately, Lady Destra walked downstairs towards the entrance to the Palace, expecting loads of press and media waiting there for some sort of government reaction. She was correct. Hundreds upon hundreds of reporters waited there. Destra ignored all of the reporter's questions and began to speak.

"Good evening, citizens of Euroslavia. This is a disheartening day in learning that a bunch of grown men would take it upon themselves to threaten the lives of our innocent children. As you can see, the world is an ugly place, and people will do absolutely anything for attention. I'm going to keep this short and sweet, because when it comes down to it, Euroslavia itself is known for it's quick and decisive actions, which have come to define the nation as to whom it is today. We have our own ways of dealing with these terrorists, as we do not negotiate with people who would take the lives of innocent children in order to offer an unacceptable proposal."

She stepped off the podium, looked to her left, and nodded. It was time.

We support any measures taken to stop this nation.-Lone Alliance

While any aid provided by the Aequatian Republic is more than likely unnecessary in the solution of the current situation within Euroslavia, we still offer our support in the form of the newly-activated and elite 1st Marine Special Operations Combat Detachment (http://forums.jolt.co.uk/showthread.php?t=469073) (1st MARSOCOM-D) who could aid your authorities greatly in ending the situation and detaining the terrorists who have performed such a horrible act upon your citizenry.

General Arnold Saltzman,
Aequatian Head of State.

OOC: More or less, I'd like an opportunity to try RPing these new guys out.

The call had been recieved. Sickened by what he had just heard, Captain Sean Aron turned and looked at the room. All of the men in it knew that something was going down. "Attention!", yelled the captain. Everyone in the room turned to him, snapped their feet together and saluted.

"We have a situation on our hands. It appears that a nation has taken children as hostages in Euroslavia. The Supreme Chancellor ahs ordered we go in in case there is action needed at the site. We move out in 30 minutes flat."

The perfect lines of soldiers stared at him, in almost disbelief.

"What are you waiting for? Move your asses!" The troops scattered, readying their gear, preparing for a fight, even death. This is the first time in a long while conflict has arose them from their routines.

The long line of black S.U.V.'s left the non-discript warehouse on the outside of the country.

Tensions were rising. The parks of Euroslavia were getting rather close. Captain Sean Aron loaded a clip into his Heckler & Koch G36 Assault Rifle and stared at the road ahead.
