General (Four star) Dmitri Tiger sat at his big desk at the Central Felucan Command complex. The window was open, a view of the mountains visable, forming the horizon.
One little paw lifted up a sheet of paper, which he scanned over, squinting. Then he pressed a button on his intercom. A moment later, a male-wolf Colonel and a female-rabbit Lieutenant walked in.
General Dmitri lifted the paper, "Wot's this mean?"
The Lieutenant took the sheet, read it. "Uh sir. Seems Geneticon 'Black Listed' our nation. No reason given."
Dmitri frowned, scratching at his whiskers. "But wot's it mean?"
The Colonel cleared his throat, "Assumedly we offended them somehow. They refuse to sell us military arms."
The Lieutenant shuffled through her log book. "We don't actually buy any arms from them in the first place. 96% of our military equipment is built right here in Feluca."
Dmitri glowered, "Ten whoi do we care?"
Colonel Gaven smiled at the smoldering little tiger, "They're doing it for political reasons, sir. Intent unknown. It's really nothing to worry about. They lack both the political willpower and the strength to make a move against us. Beyond that, we have allies. Kraven and Willink to point out some."
The young Lieutenant grinned thoughtfully, "I say we 'black list' them as well. According to the records, they've never purchased any of our goods, so it's no harm. We don't ..actually have a black list. It's rather childish. We'd need to make one up just for this occassion."
Dmitri crumped up the letter and tossed it into the trash bin. "Verrah well. Black List 'em! An' also.. call 'em stupid."
Colonel Gaven rolled his eyes heavenwards, trying hard not to laugh. "Yes sir."
The next day..
New Feluca Responds to Foreign 'Black List'
New Felucan military industries have announced today that they will no longer allow the sale of non-civilian equipment to the country of Geneticon. Due to political and security needs, this nation will no longer be allowed to conduct non-civilian business of any kind in Felucan territory.
Also, General Dmitri Tiger has denounced the whole affair as 'Stupid' and beneath the Felucan people as a whole.
