Administrative Statement
From the Opatian Federation

It is my sad duty to inform all nations that Old-Government loyalists from the Opatian Federation have left the borders, and therefore, we are required to notify all nations of the incident. Although border-patrol was at full force, the loyalists were armed with heavy weaponry. We do not know the intentions, or the bearings of the loyalists, however we advise you to strengthen your border-patrol forces to maximum strength at this time. Our government is prepared to send troops to nations that may have loyalists in them. Once again, on behalf of our government, I apalogize.

Actually, our new government has voted in favor of a new governmental constitutional amendment:

AMENDMENT IV:
The Federation of Opatia herby releases the right to hold Opatian criminals in their own nation to any other nation, as long as an International Warning is sent to all other nations. Unless this warning is given, the nation must return all criminals to a licensed official from the United Nations, or from the Opatian Federation.

The Opatian Federation has classified this criminals as Armed, Highly Dangerous, and International Criminals (as per the Amendment 4 Act of Opatia).

IC: Hmmm....ponder the Grace Academy President, terrorists, my kind of people, he then sent several messengers in search for them, they all carried a note stating that he wished to make an alliance as long as they'd give him some arms and supplies, and would help if they helped Grace Academy get revenge on South Lizasauria and Umvitz. The note was in case the terrorists killed the messages and looked for plunder. :sniper:

IC: South Lizasaurian INTEL agencies intecept a messenger and begin searching for the Grace Academy camp using elite military units.

South Lizasauria would like to help you in destroying these terrorists, Grace Academy has been causing problems for the Allied States of South Lizasauria for too long!

AMENDMENT IV:
The Federation of Opatia herby releases the right to hold Opatian criminals in their own nation to any other nation, as long as an International Warning is sent to all other nations. Unless this warning is given, the nation must return all criminals to a licensed official from the United Nations, or from the Opatian Federation.

We comply, all terrorists that aren't Opatian will be returned after being intercepted and questioned, however all terrorists from the group 'Grace Academy' will have to be held under South Lizasaurian law.

After Grace's bitter defeat against the superpowers South Lizasauria and Umvitz a new bitterness was spawned, driven by their need to convert all life and get vengeance on those who vanquished their evil plot for dominion over all nations, they created a new plan for gaining dominion. A Grace Acedemy messenger dressed as a civillian goes to a payphone and calls the special forces informing them that the just hijacked two SOuth Lizasaurian airial transports and that they'll collide with important government building in both nations. He then hung up and lurked into the shadows...

The mastmind that gave the President the idea for the plot records himself on a video, this time allied intelligence was on red alert... The man who dropped the tape off at a police station was caught on security CAM, the police then gave the tape to the allied governments so that the INTEL agents could capture him. Yes there will be destruction but the question is whose destruction? Yours or OURS? You cannon use weapons of mass destruction on us, for we have our people amongst your people, some of your towns are now ours. The videocamera moves to the right revealling a female teenage civillain tied up to a chair with her mough gagged. The camera centers on the crooked mastermind. You see? If you use weapons of mass destruction you will only be killing your own people. And our colonies are everywhere if you take out one there'll still be more of us to fight. Only 86% of one colony was destroyed and now our borthers and sisters will avenge them by forcing the infidels to fight face to face with us like men. And the peoples Grace Academy never apololize because they are never wrong! We will unite the freedom fighters and form an all powerful government with dominion over all nat-the televeision was switched off.
The Intel watching could no longer stand it.

OOC: You can't I have several settlements thus only the ones known can be attacked, you have to find those with spy ops and such. The peope of my nationstate are radicals that believe their right and that everyone else must be their slaves. And now allied nations must deal with the plane threat and the conquered towns with civillian hostages.

The Community was not about to renege on its word. Over the next thirty six hours, The activity at The Siapian Intellignce Network increased national electricity prices by about two cents that year. Siapian soldiers were returning from the colonies, and along with them, the Operations Division Epsilon.

Skyetech Industries was awarded the contract to bring up four more reconaissance satelites sixteen hours before the deadline. Twenty minutes after the deadline, the Skyetech sub-orbital spacecraft was returning to Esmund International Airport.

Within eight hours of the deadline passing, every single email leaving Siap contained a latent worm. Every computer network it entered, it installed a silent one way back-door, and then connected itself to every other computer network it could. And as soon as the patch was installed, the SIN mainframes took every bit of data off of them. Anything that was sealed was quickly cracked. Several hundred qubit mainframes, processing a universe of data by simultaeneously having their binary digits on and off.

Satelite pictures, computer records, phone records, phone calls, flights, records, people, lives, hopes, fears, dreams, all stored on magnetic media was streaming through the mainframes. Anything triple tangently (or closer) related to the Grace Academy (ie-event or location a, tied to event/location c, by event/person b)

Two analysts rubbed their eyes after staring at the computers. "Their use of messengers to deliver their threats suggests that they are trying to stay invisible. The flaw in that is that they must not have strong centralized leadership. It seems like they are cells. If that is the case, they will be unable to respond to unexpected events."

"If they do have centralized leadership, and they are communicating, we will find them."

"I bet you we'll find 'em, even if every one of them was workin' for himself."

We have fighters airborne, and we would like to attempt to use low-yield thermobaric weapons to attempt to force the planes to crash land. The turbulence generated should force a sudden drop in altitude, and if we ar elucky, they'll try to pull up and crash land. Otherwise, the only thing we can do is bring them down.

All across Siap, the military was mobilized. While martial law had not been declared, the military was patrolling the streets.

It should be noted that service to the Siapian state was compulsory. Everyone had to serve the state, predominantly in the military, but also as firefighters, volunteers (in the Siapian Equivalent of the peace corps.) or emergency medical technicians. The one thing that they had in common was that at the end of their of their required term, they were issued an AR-10 "Citizens' Rifle" and a .38 special revolver, the "Citizens' pistol", with the instruction to safeguard themselves and what they held dear. Every citizen was trained to use these weapons, and encouraged to keep them, in case "the unthinkable should happen". Every citizen was taught Aikijitsu in school, and everyone in the military was taught Krav Maga. Monks who practice the faith of the indigenous Siapians and members of the Siapian Special Forces learn Vardschirm, a technique that involves defeating an enemy by applying sharp blows to break bones and joints, as opposed to striking soft tissue and using holds. People have died while undergoing training for the Siapian Army. People have killed themselves trying to train for the Special Forces School. People who do not succeed in the Special Forces School often leave with permanent disabilities.

Undisclosed Location

A middle aged man sat in the office, smoke curling up from his cigarillo. A hat covered his balding head, and tan, wrinkled skin mixed with the scars made him appear almost like worn tree bark. Sunglasses covered his eyes. He stood up, and shook the hands of the three men facing him with enough force to make them glad he was on their side. Underneath his loose clothing was a lifetime of scars, and a highly tuned, ruthlessly effective killing machine.

"Have you and the men signed the forms?"

He spoke with a suprisingly deep voice that projected instant dominance over the entire room, without emitting any hint of trying to do this.

"We have, and I understand what they say. I have absolutely no tie to any branch of the Siapian Armed Services. I receive no compensation from the Siapian government for any of my activities for the next five years, and as a fromer military officer, involved in paramilitary activities, I am subject under Citizens' Common Law to be held accountable and be extradited to The Community to stand trial for my crimes. Under Military law, Article 5, my activities are harmful to the international standing of The Community, and if I am captured, I can and will be executed, by shotgun blast to the face, and my remains shall be buried in an unmarked potters' grave. My family will have no access to the records pertaining to where I am buried. I accept this. My men accept this." he smiled, slightly.

"You know what you are going to be asked to do?"

"If I have been assigned control of the entire Siapian Intelligence Network Operations Division Epsilon, then it must be something important. And probably pertaining to these terrorists."

"You will go and teach these terrorists the true meaning of terror. You, and all of your men, are to remove the terrorist threat, especially the one posed by the Grace Academy. You will be issued $1 Billion per annum for operating expenses. You have five years. And you have no oversight. You will return to this location after that time with a body count, and there will be no terrorist threat. Intel and money will be at prearrange drop points. Any questions?"

"When is this meeting over?" He said, solemnly.

The man in the military uniform chuckled. "He knows what this is about. Your dismissed, mister ex-Specialist."

His advisors begin whispering to one another but then are questioned by INTEL agents, other advisors were just aghast. This is an invasion where enemy troops are dressed up as civillians we need troops to assist the police.
I would also like to have all special citezens and officials vote on whether or not we should reinstate the strict laws of old, seeing that the old law system was destructive yet effective. Being a meritocracy the groups of people I listed may now vote.

Advisor: I object to this action! It was these old laws that made us unpopular in the first place.

Another advisor: Hold your tongue! It was our agression towards segregations and harsh treatment of the le-

Livid: Silence! We shall reinstate some laws and find ways to have then coincide with the International Relations act, meaning find the good laws that kept criminals powerless and fearful of the police yet seperate them from the laws that encourage atrocities...if the vote is in its favor.

Overhead, two Community Type II Air Superiority fighters approached each hijacked plane. They fired warheads that split open underneath the tail, filling the area with a fine mist. As soon as the fuel was spread, a small bit of thermite ignited, causing a massive explosion. The blast was far enough away to not damage the tail, but the shockwave would force the plane into a nosedive. If the hijackers had excellent timing and a desire to complete their mission, they'd pull up close to the ground with significantly reduced airspeed. From there it would be much easier for the Siapian Pilots to work with.


In The Community, all citizens found to be members of the Grace Academy were tried before the Citizens' Council and then, if found guilty, they were sent north to checkpoint 141 (a.k.a. Camp Snowshoe), the most brutal of Siapian labor camps.

Meanwhile, members of the Grace Academy were turning up dead in South Lizasauria and elsewhere. The majority of the bodies had wounds from bindings around their wrists and had their necks snapped, throats slit, or were shot from under the chin through the head. No group claimed responsibility for these actions.

(The civs being constantly bombarded with propghaganda seem to be in complete control of the government and does what they say without question.) I have failed!!!!!!!! The civs seemed quite surprised yet they eyed him with that brainewashed and confused look on their face. A man in the croud was beaten by the civs for rebuking him in public but the imfamous secret police which were no longer that much of a secret due to their overuse of power just let them proceed on beating him to a pulp. The commander snarled at his luitenant. Next time do a better job! But I- Do it! Even though the luitenant wasn't involved he still was punished. He crept back inside hoping that the next plan he came up with would succeed...

"What happened?"

"The Grace Academy Prisoners rose up and took over Snowshoe."

"Hmm. Pity the timing on that one. We were just about to send fresh supplies up their way. We'll deal with this just the way we were trained to."

A small convoy of trucks equipped with snow chains thundered across the ice. The land was slowly overcome by ice, and soon there was more ice than land. The northern archipelago was completely frozen, and about 100 km south was the final checkpoint for the Siapian military, and members of the Human Resource Management Corporation, the company that managed Snowshoe for all of its privatized existence, before the long torturous path to Snowshoe.. Here were all the survivors from the uprising that could escape and make the voyage back. There weren't many.

"Load up the survivors. I'll do what needs to be done."

He walked out of the barracks, wrapped in a thick parka. As he walked over to the hut overlooking the giant ravine. He spat as he walked, and heard a crunching noise. 50 below. Nice day. He thought. Inside the hut, he yanked a lever, and a whining sound filled the ravine as the bridge slid back about ten feet and then slowly lowered so that it was prone along the vertical wall furthest from Snowshoe. He said a prayer for any loyal Siapians who were still on the other side. He looked out the window, and saw billowing clouds obscuring the last remaining hours of sunlight they would have. This time of year, there were only a few hours of sunlight every day. And it would get less.

"Ice storm comin' Hurry up!"

Ice storm. Great. With the remaining fuel, the prisoners could heat themselves for three days, or maybe some trucks still remained and were intact. Then they could get maybe 20 km before the storm hit, and then become human popsicles inside. Or maybe the ice rain would freeze them with the engines running, and they'd die of carbon monoxide poisoning.

He slowly began walking back. If they were extremely clever, they'd all huddle together tonight without using any fuel for heat in the storm bunkers. And then after the storm blew over, perhaps when the sun rose, they could take the survivors and, if they were extremely conservative and excellent drivers, make it to the ravine with just enough time to drive over the edge. Maybe they'd hit the bottom before the hypothermia finished 'em.

OOC: Will post urban combat later, or perhaps this weekend.

IC: South Lizasaurian troops being more deadly in icy and desert terrain were dipatched to prevent Grace Academy from doing anything else underhanded with their newly ill-acquired base. The mission was to rescue loyalists. If SOuth Lizasauria got the authorization it would build a small based made from snow and ice, trecnhes would also be made from ice, the amount of safe burning material they would bring and ice equiptment made it possible to survive without electricity and construct a deadly base within a few days. A few Grace members dared venture into the sniper's crosshairs and were immidiatly killed, a couple helicopters guarded the site in which the base would be built, building this ice fortress would supress the new enemy's base's activity and it would lasyt until the ice storm passed, thus giving them more then enough time to deal with the enemy and rescue the loyal troops. All they needed now was Siap's permission.

Rescue mission day 1:
An airdrop zone was build for allies to drop off reiforcements and supplies as they waited for permission, so far only bunkers of ice filled with candles and the airdrop zone made from a square hole dug in the ground filled with ice then roughed so no one would slip, the troops would be able to surveive because they wore special heat suits ran by solar panel.

Your welcome to look for survivors, although the survivors that made it to our checkpoint claim that all have died. Be advised that there is an incoming ice storm, and in normal conditions winds are at least 60 km/h. so we strongly advise against using aircraft. Also, be warned that there is no naturally occuring life north of the ravine. The local population of polar bears and snowshoe rabbits have been wiped out due to climate changes, industry and nuclear tests not far from this location. Be advised that the proximity to the north pole means that there will be only six hours of sunlight per day, and todays and most of tomorrow's is expected to be blocked out by the ice storm. Highs for the next several days will be -50° F, and the lows are expected to reach well below -100° F, when the storm subsides.

This time for Livid it was personal... His stands on brainwash and propaghanda compelled him to make a Radical decion in handling this threat. He ordered the air force to load flash bombs onto their planes and other air units just to knock out masses of enemy troops, meanwhile a large army of 4 and a half legions began to storm the enemy as air units kept knocking out the majority of enemy troops. An EMP bomb was dropped to immoblize mechanical units, South Lizasauria's towns were their own again, the large army made a foothold in the city preparing to liberate allied towns, however they'd need support from allied nations.

The Siapian forces finally arrived in South Lizasauria. Five APCs entered the first captured town. Each APC had an internally controlled 20mm mount and TOW missiles. As the gates swung open, a team of five emptied out. The soldiers were wearing kevlar with ceramic inserts, with metallic-bonded polymers around the joints. The men were armed with H&K G36A carbines, with a 12.7mm countersniper. If a sniper fired upon them, they were met with 12.7mm shells, or a spray of 20mm fire.

The men entered the buildings, throwing in either flashbangs or BZ (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/3-quinuclidinyl_benzilate) inside the buildings, with the pointman holding a 10mm sidearm, equipped with a laser scope, and holding his knife along the filed-edge of the gun. The sidearm had rubber bullets to subdue any terrorist, and the two men behind him used their P90 submachine guns with armor piercing bullets. The sweep had his G36A.

After each of these teams cleared several buildings on the outskirts of town, HMMWVs with .50 caliber mounts and 5-ton trucks entered the town. The special forces occupying the buildings were replaced by the reinforcements, who garrisoned the cleared buildings.

Encrypted message to allies

South Lizasaurian INTEL has found that their main leaders use tactics similar to those used in WWII Germany. The leader would appoint more than one person to the same jobs, thus if one rebelled the rivals competing for greatness in the leader's eyes will immidiatly report him. It turns out the lower levels of leaders are usually competing for a higher stature. They also have an imfamous secret police which according to the research has employed "shirt ninjas" Going in with brute force may result in another abominable attack like the one we just settled. We must think up another strategy, that would be slick, fast, effective and we must also make sure we aren't detected.

The urban assault units used the garissoned buildings as cover and opened fire on the infantry pouring into the street. The Humvees and APCs created fallback positions for all the soldiers on the street. Counter-snipers took to the rooftops with the 12.7mm anti-armor rifles, and fired anywhere they saw the flash from a stinger launcher.

The Community delivered no official response to the threats.

The managing general had been relieved from his command. Specialist Paul Kesson was assigned to personally command the situation. On that same day a package was dropped in front of one of the Grace Academy controlled compounds. Inside was a folded Siapian flag and a pair of expensive, long silk gloves containing a pair of severed arms holding a card with beautiful calligraphy that read "Never".

Meanwhile, that day there were over one hundred seperate attacks on controlled towns and recently discovered Grace Academy's compounds. They were primarily sniper attacks, although several bombs went off in Grace Academy compounds. A video appeared on the internet. It showed a group of three men in unmarked uniforms wearing balaclavas entering a room with several Grace Academy members. The men ruthlessly shot them all, except for one who held up a female civilian, holding a knife to her throat. One man walked forward and shot the woman between the eyes and then shot the man in the stomach. The camera zoomed in on the man as he bled, and boots began to stomp on his face and his wounded stomach. Eventually blood stopped pouring from the mutilated and disfigured corpse. The camera then focused in on one of the men in balaclavas. "This is what happens to members of the Grace Academy. We don't care where you are, what you have done, which side wins the war. South Lizasauria could die, Siap could fall, you could rule the world, and we will still come and kill you. Kill every single one of you. None of you are safe. You can crawl deeper into your hidey holes, but they will only serve as your coffins. We don't fight for any side. We don't care who wins or who loses. We just kill you because its fun."

The Siapian Army stormed further into the towns the Grace Academy held. The Special forces teams began pursuing the retreating forces deeper into their terrain. When the Grace Academy forces regrouped with greater forces than the special forces teams, the MLRS systems brought from Siap fired shrapnel and hydrobaric explosives at the massing armies.

Over a hundred cells of the countriless soldiers began following the path from where the Grace Academy soldiers were coming from. Using satelite imaging, they were able to fan out from the main trails. They used the satelite images to scout out paths of their own. Their goal was to secure a pathway within 4 km of a main population center.

Siapian soldiers were aggravated by the arrival of the new units.

The countersnipers took to the roofs of the buildings with the 12.7mm anti-armor rifles and began firing at the tail rotors of the helicopters. Soon men with stinger anti-aircraft launchers began firing at the helicopters as well.

Operations Detatchment Gamma spread out, advancing sideways from the village. The minigunners had created a veritable wall of steel, forcing the Urban Assault Division to pull back with heavy casualties.

With the advent of the tanks and the airforce, The Community responded in kind. First came a wave of Community Type-114 stealth fighter bombers. The allied forces listening to the radios would hear the occasional "Magnum" as AGM-88 HARM (High Speed Anti-Radar Missiles) were fired over the Grace Academy's captureds settlements. Any radar system operating in the area would soon be blind. The second wave consisted of modified A-10 warthogs, which fired their gattling guns and dropped AGM-154 cluster bombs onto the tanks, turning them from armored war machines into very expensive sieves. Community Type 2 air superiority fighters took to the skies, and began engaging the enemy air force high over their own sky, which was now deprived of its own radar system. Cruise missiles and launchers were imported from The Community and soon would be used to destroy the airfields where the aircraft was coming from.

The new armored units were commanded by the Urban Assault division, which began flanking the recently captured Grace Academy settlement, APCs taking point with their 20mm cannons ready to destroy any attackers.


Grace Academy Homeland

The countriless soldiers had been watching the construction of the new defenses. Apparently word of their arrival go through. It didn't matter. They still had a pretty good idea where the population centers were. And Rapture was weapon that did not require precise accuracy. They set up the W54 cannon several kilometers outside of the main population center and hid it under camoflage nets. They then set up the warhead for Rapture.

It was loaded. The men lay prone. One man quickly made several calculations and entered it into the computer of the Davy Crocket. The calculations were based on a range finder and basic trigonometry, so countermeasures could not stop it. Then one man flipped the switch, and the small warhead was airborne. It screamed overhead the buildings. Inside, a small detonation charge was in the center of hydrazine. The hydrazine was quickly forced through a platinum mesh, causing it to ignite at several thousand degrees. The outer layer of the warhead was several thick layers of depleted uranium and a ceramic composite consisting of graphite, zirconium and several dense lanthanides and actinides, which broke off as the warhead approached its target. When the hydrazine had been ignited, it broke into the layer that was previously under the uranium shell. It was Californium-252 Oxide, a powerful neutron emitter. The Californium was heated so fast it became a plasma, and spread out all over a several kilometer radius high in the sky. As the metal plasma reached higher altitudes, it cooled off and became more of a liquid. This liquid rained down over a radius of about half a dozen kilometers. Other parts of the plasma precipitated into a particle cloud that became immersed in the natural moisture in the air. The entire area around the population center was bathed in neutron radiation. All life, in and around the population center, including the team that fired the weapon was dead instantly.

The first Siapian troops on the ground approached what looked like a major population center, but all of the plant matter surrounding it was dead. The men's skin became slightly more red. A large, billowing cloud of soot was in the air. Finally, one man fell to his knees and began vomiting. Other men's skin began peeling rapidly. Blood flowed forth from their eyes and their skin oozed purple blood as it came off in layers. The soldiers quickly pulled away from the village. Nothing inside there could have been alive. The entire area was bathed in radiation.


Message to all forces:

It would seem that a third party has detonated an extremely powerful radiological if not a nuclear weapon in the Grace Academy's homeland. Our intelligence suggests that this is the same force that mentioned its desire to eradicate all members of the Grace Academy. This shows a complete disregard for human life; a completely twisted mind beyond the worst psychosis, much worse than any of the terrorists we face now. We hereby propose an immediate end to all hostilities, and that the Grace Academy widthdraw from the lands it has taken, in exchange for humanitarian aid to the Grace Academy.

You have caused Siapians to die. Your expansionist and bloodthirsty actions have roused hatred in others. Now that they express violence against you, now that you know what the horrors of terrorism is, you were offered peace. You have shunned peace. You have shunned help. You have shunned aid for your own people, and in the end, the only ones who suffer are your people. There are terrorists hiding in your nation, striking your homeland, and yet you neglect that threat and continue fighting outwards. These terrorists obviously posses weapons of terrible power. This is the end. The Community, in its vast but finite capacity for forgiveness asks that you stop fighting now and come to your senses. If you do not stop this, you will be considered by the Council of Ten to be an unstable threat to the world's security. And what will flow from that is something that no one wants. But, I point you in the path of peace. It is up to you to travel that path.

This is the South Lizasaurian INTEL commander, I'm currently at the South Lizasaurian archives...I looked up previous history, these unidentified terrorists might be the remnants of the old South Lizasaurian republic which was mainly communist, eventually after we were invaded by rival countries the right wing took over not only making the founding of Godhaven possible but also stirring up bitterness between present day South Lizasaurians and these communist loyalists known to us as "first wavers". If these are the culprits approach them with caution, they feel no pain, do not value life whatsoever, and they have a longstanding fued against baptists.(almost all South Lizasaurians left or right wing alike)

A well publicized address was made on TV. Paul Kesson stood, facing the camera. His face was slightly pale, moderately long black hair flowing back behind his head. His black cargo shirt faded was tucked into his green BDU pants. Sunglasses obscured his eyes and black gloves covered his hands. His face was like stone, but his gesture was one of patience. He spoke carefully into the microphone, facing the cameras.

"My name is Paul Andrew Leoluca Kesson. I am a soldier in the Siapian Army, and I have the designation of 'Specialist' in the Siapian Intelligence Network, and I command all of the Siapian forces on the ground, and I make one last final appeal to the Grace Academy. I urge you to listen and to listen well. The Community is a patient and reasonable nation. We have tolerated your torture of innocent civilians for a long time without issuing any serious retaliation. Unfortunately, you have pushed our patience to its limit.

Grace begins using special propaghanda withing all its forest settlements and homeland that subliminally tells anti-Grace people to openly express their hatred, the hateful terrorists hearing this will then believe that openly showing their hatred would help their cause thus making it easy to identify them. They also tighten security and put survaillance everywhere to make it easier to control the population terrorist or otherwise. The whole poplace is ordered to wear uniform under pain of terrible torture to ensure that forighners will be immdiatly detected. Helicopters were armed with rockets and patrolled everywhere on their territoy to find this "rapture" and commandeer it against the infidels. Meanwhile without Siap knowing the leaders discuss how to handlt this hail.

Camp leader: The Siapians have fought us longer than any enmy has besides South Lizasauria, we know South Lizasauria's weaknesses and how to combat them, but we can't go up against Siap until we learn more about them...I suggest we back out for now and wait for the oppurtune moment.

Secret Police cheif: Hmph! Surrender you mean? Mr. President complying to their demands would be like having every member in our holy nation commiting suicide.

President: We shall debate this further, hopefull Siap intends on giving us time to consider....

OOC: The Grace people believe its their purpose to convert all life and that those who don't don't deserve to live. So surrending and giving way to peace would be like suicde to them, which in their eyes is an unforgivable sin against God.

South Lizasaurian INTEL has found that the only way to make Grace accept the demands is by destroying their leadership, we've hacked into their digital archives and found tons of personal stuff from civs against the war, or how they go along with it in fear that a leader might torture them, going in with brute force won't work because there'll always be a vally or a nook to hide in for these ill leaders, if we could subtlydestabalize their leadership system and replace them with a good leader maybe Grae could become a free nation more than a cultish terror group.

Encrypted response to INTEL: Do you have a plan to get to the Grace Academy leadership? We have our own plans for dealing with the situation at hand. Let us know if you can reach the leadership. Also, do you know if the terrorist group you told us about has access to radiological or tactical nuclear weapons?
~Spc. Kesson

The countriless soldiers cleared the area around one of the propaganda speakers. Once they were able to get close to it, a hacker overrode the security and converted the speakers from a receiving station to a transmitting station. Soon, all of the propaganda speakers were playing David Bowie's "China Girl".

Kesson faced the cameras. "This is an update. The Council of Ten is deliberating as I speak. Their decision about the threat posed by Grace Academy. Today is the last day for this debate, and their debate ends at the official close of office for government agencies. Grace Academy has only six more hours to respond. As we speak, our special forces and air force have begun softening targets to prepare for invasion."


Over the Grace Academy homeland, Type 114 fighter-bombers were clearing radar stations, disabling electrical substations (via cluster bombs that contained graphite ribbons, shorting out equipment), and communications facilities with standard and EMP bombs. Type-2 fighters mangled the patrolling helicopters. Cruise missiles were fired at every major airport, detonating 50 m above the ground, creating an airburst effect that literally swept everything, from planes to hangars, off the ground.

Operations Division Beta, Gamma and Omega slipped across the border and began sabotage operations of weapons and fuel depots. Terrain variation indicating a bunker was met with a B-113 surface penetrating warhead, delivered from the heavy bombers that began lumbering over the sky. In six hours, there would either be peace, or the largest invasion The Community had ever undertook.

Grace troops begin seeking out other minority groups and attacking them in hopes to draw them out, with the streets as an urban war zone between various gans, terrorist organizations and other cults it would be hard and even lethal to ovoid engaging the others. However South Lizasauria without a shadow of a doubt would be difficut to attack in this way for they "bash-out" all minority groups" Grace members are really good at manipulating people and turning them against each other, so all they need to do is pretend and lie a bit to these groups and before you know it bullets are everywhere. All they needed to do was make fake movies with reenactments day they're real and depending on whats on those tapes will spark this urban war. Meanwhile Grace settles another trade colony, and tell all its secret allies to meet there.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Subliminal_message (READ THE EFFECTIVENESS PART AND LINKS ON THIS). The type of propaganda you have needs to be incorporated into an everyday part of their lives, and for suggestion to be truly effective, it needs tor be done while the brain is still forming. Boradcasting it on speakers to foreign soldiers will do nothing, except perhaps prevent them from sleeping, if you have them surrounded in a bunker (See: US involvment in Nicaragua). But it won't change the way they think. It would be entirely plausible for the people in your nation to be fanatically patriotic because of the propaganda, but you haven't had sufficient time to indoctrinate your occupied terrain (unless you took the children, children are easy to brainwash. I learned this working in a shelter for children removed from their parents custody by the State). If you want more information on propaganda and indoctrination, google it. Its terribly fascinating stuff, but is subject to overhype.

In general, as an NS etiquette thingy, if your technology is challenged, you should generally provide reasons as to why it does work instead of demanding reasons as to why it doesn't work. (Not terribly important, but people will respect you more).

Also, don't forget that your propaganda speakers, or at least the ones you set up in the forest, are playing Bowie's "China Girl". But this may be worse than subliminal messages.

"It begins."

The first wave of men crossed the border into Grace Academy's territory.

"Our first objective is to control what comes in and out of this nation."

The first 400,000 men entered the nation and did not advance across the border. Instead, they created fortifications several klicks past the border, creating tank traps, minefields, razor wire and the like. Sonar and seismic blasts were used to search for tunnels, and if one was found, it was immediately demolished. Mines were placed across the ports, cargo ships were sunk in the harbors, and patrol boats took to sealing off all of the exits. Paratroops were dropped onto the recently captured air ports, which allowed men and material to be flown directly in.

"Now comes the hard part." Kesson sipped his tea, sitting with his commaders, looking at the maps on the desk.

one million Siapian soldiers crossed the border or were flown in. A sheer wall of soldiers entered the nation, and spread out, enveloping it like tentacles, surrounding the cities. Refugee camps were built outside of the cities. Instead of taking the city by absolute force, the soldiers moved in parties, quickly collecting any citizen that could be removed from their homes. Those who fought back were killed. Then, either the soldiers occupied the buildings or demolished them outright. Any child age fourteen or under was taken from the families the soldiers visited, and immediately sent out of the Grace Academy territory.

"Here is my rule. All of the Grace Academy citizens that are in our camps will be provided with food and medical treatment. At least 2500 calories for each. Offer them the opportunity to work. If they work, offer them 3500 calories. Allow them to gain weight. I want no killing in front of them, I want no violence in their lives. I want their current existence to have no stress. As for the children, we shall send them to The Community. Preferably, the colonies. Its nice there this time of year, and they will have room. I am using my operations budget to pay for what I know to be the best child shrinks to come in and work with them. They may have been exposed to propaganda their whole life, but I assure you that we will be able to bring them back to reason. Let them know luxury and give them an existence free of stress. Do not overly tax them. Then, slowly, introduce them to the responsibilities of being a Citizen. Let them see Reason, educate them. With time, we can show them what a 'terrible existence' they had. If they so desire, they can remain members of The Community, or they can return to this land after we have saved it."

The man with the dark skin and scars across his face stood with his black uniform stood in a clearing in the border forests. A small unmarked helicopter touched down. THe man looked around and quickly opened the side door of the helicopter before getting in and shutting the door. The helicopter lifted off and thundered low over the trees until it reached the ocean and remained fairly close to the surface of the water. "I have to say that I am impressed with your work and I am sorry about the unexpected fallout of Rapture. You did not completely stop the terrorism, but you gave The Community a reason to fight. And that will solve many of our problems. Albeit, intel shows that the enemy is on the move. While they have lost the manpower they had before, they are still a threat. Those who have strength and fortitude* have taken an interest in your operation, and are willing to fund you out of their own pocket, allowing you to extend your operation time. Whaddya think, Cyrus?"

The man grunted. He knew it was being done this way so his country could wash their hands of him in a hurry. Using Rapture was taking it a little too far in hindsight, but it got the job done.

"Listen, you get this done, and you will be a made man. You will be an untouchable. If you do the wet work for them, then you are..."

Cyrus tuned him out.

*A reference to the organization called "The Immortal Nine". Similar to the Mafia in post-WWII Sicily in that they are all powerful, but no one acknowledges them by name or reveals anything about it. Siap collapsed into anarchy some time ago, and nine incredibly wealthy and powerful families pooled their resources and defended Siap from internal and external threats. They created the current government, and have moved out of sight, but they still retain a lot of power.

OOC: I do not see a forseeable end to this. I can live with this, but I do not want this to simply die. I am willing to keep fighting, but all parties should begin thinking about what they want and what they are willing to compromise. Grace Academy, I know I will not be able to completely obliterate you, and this is not my intention. I also realize that it wouldn't make very much IC sense for your leaders to compromise. If you want your organization to disappear and go underground and slowly rebuild its power, I am fine with that. (there is a mobster in Siap who, among other things, helps organizations do this). All parties involved feel free to telegram me with ideas.

OOC: In treating people with severe trauma, you usually have to redefine "normal", as the intense situations that they are subjected to becomes "normal", or expected. The system the Grace Academy citizens lived in placed extreme demand with little return. The way you respond to this is by putting them in a situation where they get a lot without return, so that they learn how to trust again. Once they learn how to trust you, you slowly place demands upon them. This is based off personal experience.

Also, how do you know that rapture was used? Rapture was a clean neutron bomb developed in Siap, and there is a rather long story behind it (it has passed through multiple hands). If you did more investigative work around the blast site (ie-studying the fallout), I might tell you that it was rapture, and whose hands its passed through.

OOC: INTEL agents in the area had hearing outpost set p to deal with enemy stealth missions. INTEL always brings all the neccessary equiptement, they overhear this man saying "we need field exp*static*rapture" then there was a large explosion that killed off everything, INTEL having all equiptment seretly hooked up to the nearest intelligence center computer was able to find out. There are also sencors that read atmosshpere,temperature,ratiation,ect.

And the part about getting them to trust again is apt, that was what the pchyciatrists would try to do first, convince them that they are a person not a slave.

My sountry knows how to make multipurpose protection suits that guard against radiation and chemicals and they are bullet proof.

Neutron shells immidiatly kill off all organic life in a small radious but the ratiation quickly wears off so that allies can capture vehicles.

IC:
INTEL begins sending agents into Siap of course all have ratiation/chem suits on. They set up their special ops stations listening to phone calls reading mail and listening and watching for suspicious activity. The Sotuh Lizasaurian Military tightens up on the border, more nuke cannons guard and wai so that if any "rapture" comes withing range they'd be able to neatralize it. A South Lizasaurian guard at the nuclear lab goes up to the commander.

Guard:Sir! The neatron shells are ready Sir!

Commander: Good...very good...

Guard: Permission to speak freely sir?

Commander: Granted.

Guard: What happens if we do capture it?

<snip>

OOC: My only qualm with this are the suits. The reason neutron bombs are so effective is that the neutrons themselves have a decent penetration capacity by themselves, but when they strike atoms, they also create a burst of gamma radiation. The deal with neutron bombs is that they are generally designed with about 10 times the amount of radiation required to kill someone, so that the targets are killed instantly. If it was any less, they'd die eventually, but still have time to wriggle around before succumbing to radiation sickness. The compounds I used in Rapture have a half-life of 55 days. That means in 55 days, there will be only 5 times the amount to kill a human. To insulate yourself against the just the gamma radiation, you need either 1 cm of lead for a 50% reduction of intensity (or 6 cm of concrete). In short, it is impossible to send people into areas with gamma or neutron fallout. But you could send vehicles or perhaps robots...

IC: In response to the suicide bombers, The Siapian forces used tanks and bulldozers to clear captured structures, and if a heavy presence of suicide bombers or enemy forces, the structures were simply leveled with thermobaric weapons.

To deal with the construction of the new base, the newly created MLRS system was brought in from Siap. It had the same principle as a shaped charge, with a 50% RDX-TNT mixture in the warhead, with several thin sheets of copper and depleted uranium ball bearings coated the warhead. When the missiles were fired at the base, the explosion would super heat the copper, forming it into extremely high velocity pellets or strings of copper that would cut through steel like a hot knife through warm butter. The depleted uranium ball bearings, while not dense enough to pierce reinforced armor (ie-tank armor), compensated for their density and would have the same effect on a human as a magnum round would. Anything inside those new bases would be holier than a sieve.

Operations Detatchment Alpha was deployed to clean up the mess. They formed a wide perimeter around the base and began picking off anyone who emerged. They then moved inward to the base, and placed charges on any equipment not disabled by the rockets.

Enemy blockades on South Lizasauria's border

South Lizasaurian troops began advancing on the border using mainsly snipers and armor to advance. An army jeep that resembled a lightly armored bunker on four wheels with rocketeers and a sniper inside made short work of enemy tanks as allied ones obliterated their structures. It wouldn't be long until South Lizasaurians were able to help Siap on the front. Snipers would be able to take out suicide bombers once they're identified.

OOC: Rapture is the reason that there is the big fallout cloud. Its exploded. You won't be able to recover Rapture itself. But you can possibly recover fragments of it. But you would have to wait a while before humans went in there. If you had had a robot that was completely self-contained, self-propelled (no solar panels, no outside power), and was wrapped in a giant lead box (about 1 cm around any wiring, at least 10 cm around any transistors) and was able to gather samples from the ite without receiving any form of transmission during its time in the irradiated area, you would be able to gather some of the fragments.

In responce to the snipers Grace began taking all bullet proof materials and placing them on cars and rigging them with explosives, these cars would wait for enemy troops to come near in masses before it would run over the troops or explode in the croud. The Snipers wouldn't be able to penetrate the bulletproof glass placed on the cars or the extra metal they just welded on at the nearest arms dealer.

After sustaining casualties from the cars, the troops adopted a different formation, maintaining wide intervals between themselves. Counter snipers with 12.7mm anti-armor rifles were on point looking for enemy snipers, or cars. The rifle men kept a slightly tighter formation around the center man, who carried a modified RPG-29 (Armor piercing). The soldiers continued their advance into the cities.

The Siapian soldiers pulled back and took cover.

The converted A-10s flew over the battlefield. As soon as they approached the site of engagement, they ascended to 10,000 feet, and approached with speeds in excess of 600 knots. As they passed over the field, they dropped CBU-97 warheads. The warheads fell, they split open into ten individual armor-piercing warheads, composed of shaped charges. When the bomblets exploded, anything exposed, vehicle or human, was perforated with high velocity droplets and spindles of copper.

Just as South Lizasaurian troops guessed Stinger sites were littered across the battlefield and even had cammo netting. Meanwhile most slave drones were sent more inland to make an even stronger defensive base until of course the capitol was reached where there was a defensive structure of some sort every five feet, however they were positioned so "normal" life would not be interfered with. Some slave drones remained to repair and build up the outermost base which was apparantly about to be besieged.

It makes a slow wide circle around the battlefield attracting the fire from the stinger sites, which are then struck by the airburst rockets from the MLRS. Artillers is brought in, and begins to flatten the defensive structures constructed around the perimeter of the base. Over the entire battlefield, another cargo plane, a C-130, is carrying a 23 ton MOAB. The cargo bay doors open slowly, and the massive device is dropped over the base.

OOC: I don't want this to die off without some kind of closure. Lizasauria and Grace, you both have been on fairly recently.

This next part is long and applies to Grace. If you don't want to read all of this, then skip past it to my summary.

Grace, you created that storefront where you traded your people as slaves for weapons. You should realize that you have been spending well beyond your means. Also, I have dropped easily over several thousand tons of thermobaric weaponry on your cities. I am advancing asymmetrically, placing your citizens in relocation camps, even moving a healthy sum out of your nation. Those that resist are killed. Those cities that offer too much resistance are levelled. You still have a lot of fallout in one of your cities. I can say with a certain security that I am operating at a kill:loss ratio of 1 Siapian soldier per 100 Grace Academy insurgents/citizens (conservative estimate). I have over 1.4 million soldiers on the ground. With the amount of people you have been sending to fight me, your economy would already be in a grave (1930s) recession. With the amount of relocation, dislocation and collateral damage, as well as my wholesale bombing of your communication and transportation infrastructure, you would not be able to produce anything, and you would be lucky if you could coordinate any attacks. Your leaders may still be alive and well, but they are powerless without the people. If you continue this fight the way you are, you will not be able to feed your own people, even if they have already grown the food.


Summary: Your people, realistically, no longer capable producing anything. They are lucky if they can feed themselves. You have no economy. If you want to claim that all these tanks were sitting in some underground bunker, but if they were, they would probably need a tune up, if they weren't destroyed by my bunker-buster bombs. Continuing this fight the way you have is pretty close to Godmoding. Your leader-person and his inner circle should think about skipping town soon and rebuilding his power base.

Advise to Grace: You probably shouldn't use the N-9X.

The Community has imported forty C-36 cargo planes, converted so they had a massive bomb rack in place of a cargo hold.

They targeted bunkers, roads, rails, highways, water facilities, power plants, comms centers, large abandoned buildings, factories, mines, sewage facilities, and aquaducts.

Spc. Paul Kent responded. "The pacification of the Grace Academy terrorists is succeeding. The terrorists derive their power from the populace they rule over there, and we are doing our part to bring the terror-fueling infrastructure to its heels. Intelligence suggests that they have very limited outside support, except for a recent attempt to purchase biological weapons. At this time, however, we feel it is safe to say that the threat has been contained, and since the majority of their support came from their population, most of which now resides in displacement camps we control, we feel that the threat has been significantly reduced."

"The green area has confirmed no activity from terrorists," reffering to the green color which engulfed most of the map. "And the red area has confirmed terrorist activity." he said in a small voice, sad at the significant area of red on the map. As he said this, the others could see a female member of staff bursting into Matt's office. "Sir! I've got some bad news," she began.

Several medics began working on him, trying to stave off hypothermia. If they were lucky, he would live. A man in a black suit stood over the unconscious survivor, studying him with his cold expressionless face. "Matthew?" He said under his breath. He turned to the medics. "Listen very carefully.

I know both Soviet and German techniques. Tell them they can keep that land. Theres more than one Grace Academy in the Grace Ministry alliance, I shall flee to the one near America, they won't dare follow me there, and I will learn how to better them there. Note this down my slave, I shall return with a powerful and modern empire, the phenix they hath slain will rise up from the grave! More powerful! More technological! Better than ever before!

Combat drone: As you wish master. You can always get some more.

(in the war)

Meanwhile allies move onward liberating all stolen lands, Grace forces begin collapsing on all fronts. However the myriad colonies are still out there intertwined with superpowers's territories. And that nuking them or using weapons of mass destruction would only widen the confrontation and bring more carnage to humanity. And the United States is known for neglecting the presence of funy terrorists even after they become a serious threat so moving forces in would be illegal in US terms.

Paul Kesson stood before the Council of Ten. He was wearing his sunglasses, and stood, dressed in civilian clothing, with his hands folded behind his back. His face revealed nothing. On the table was a Dossier, penned by himself, titled "Analysis of the Pacification of Grace Academy Homeland and General Report on Terrorist threat".

"From your abstract, we understand that there are no longer any Baptist Terrorists in the land occupied by the Grand Army?"

"That is correct, sir."

"Would you mind summarizing your proposed follow up to this council?"

Damned Politicians he thought. "The Siapian Intelligence Network has tracked the leaders of the terrorist organization. When the terrorists first struck, their power base was the industry of the people where our troops are presently. Essentially, it was a semi-centralized terrorist nation-state. For the time being, we have splintered the organization and have decimated its power. Unfortunately, due to the nature of its leadership and centralization structure, we know that there is a large network in existence, one that does not manifest itself in the form of a nation-state. When the terrorist leadership fled the homeland, we were unable to intercept the leadership, but we were able to track for a briedf period of time. It seems that they have fled in the direction of North America, and my sources indicate that they will probably seek shelter in the United States, as there is a large Baptist movement there."

"Very well. I will contact the head of SIN and have them forward all of our intel on these terrorists to Langly."

"With all due respect, the Baptist movement in America has a strong political clout. Undoubtedly the US took an interest in this conflict. It is entirely plausible that the NSA was watching this. I also believe that some of our officers may have been contacted by the DIA or the Marine Recon, but I have no reason to believe our security was compromised."

"You do not trust that Langly would cooperate?"

"For all we know, Langly may be giving them protection money so that what happened in South Lizasauria doesn't happen to them. I am sure you remember that Mossad ran into similar difficulties when they were tracking Black September."

There was an uncomfortable silence for a minute.

"Can you summarize your proposal?" The Councilor asked.

Read the damn report yourself. Thats why I wrote it.

"On Page 71, you will see the abstract of my proposals. The indicated Appendices contain pertinent intelligence and a list of objectives. This will be a multi-tiered assymetrical operation, with the objective at turning the public against our enemies and eliminating would-be supporters of the Baptist Terrorists in Washington."

The Council of Ten looked over the Dossier. Some maintained calm demeanors, but others could not contain the horror that was inspired by the Dossier.

"Do you realize the implications of this?" An elderly woman asked.

"Yes. I realize also that the entire initial cost can be paid out of my discretionary operations fund. The money I receive as a Specialist."

"We cannot have this. I will not permit you to cause more civilian deaths. Your pacification has already tainted us too much."

"My orders were to neutralize the terrorist threat by any means necessary. I am a soldier. I must follow my orders. What we have done now is equivalent to what the Myceneans did when they fortified the Isthmus of Corinth. The threat of the Doric Barbarians was eliminated temporarily, but not stopped. Remember that the same barbarians later obliterated that tribe." Kesson said without changing his facial expression, only moving his hands to enhance the message he was conveying. As the room fell silent, Kesson's patience had exceeded its maximum limit. Anyone who looked at him right there would have said that he was completely unaffected. The only telltale sign of his anger was the barely audible sound of him grinding his teeth that quietly echoed through the silent halls.

"Your orders have changed. This council orders you to install a passive monitoring network, and try and track the movement of the Baptist Terrorists, and continue your investigation of the Opatian terrorists. I understand the first class of children you had reclaimed will be entering their compulsory service. We will continue your original plan. They will serve The Community, go to University, be made into fit leaders and sent back to rule their homeland. That was very wise on your part. I shall repeat your orders. Begin passive monitoring and continue investigation of Opatian terrorists."

Passive monitoring won't do shit.

"I understand and accept my orders."

He walked stiffly out the door.

Later

Kesson stepped out of the subway station at Esmund International Airport. He showed a military ID to a man in uniform and was escorted through a door that, because of its paint scheme, blended almost seemlessly into the wall. After navigating through a series of tunnels he came out on the tarmac. When he stepped out into the sunlight, a small plane was taxiing towards the terminal. Kesson attatched his military ID to his shirt. Upon seeing the ID, all uniformed personnel around the aircraft stepped aside and saluted. The man in the black suit stepped out and saluted. "Sir! Our survivor has been recovered. He has been given pain killers for the time being and is unconscious, but he will make it. We have forwarded his medical report to Opatia, as per his requests."

"Very good, but don't tell them anything else for now. Get an ambulance here, and take him to the Esmund University Medical College's Surgical ICU*. I want fake papers, fake ID, non-uniform protection, off the records. No one talks to him but us, anything he says gets a confidential seal on it. And nobody asks questions."

"Yes sir." Clarke saluted.

*The most advanced hospital in The Community.
....


Matt was slowly awaking inside the hospital bed. Several machines bleeped, indicating that he was recovering well. Kesson sat in the far corner of the room. Upon seeing Matt wake up, he placed set down a small device that emitted a barely audible high pitch whine. "Sir, UI first must assure you that you are safe. You are in the Esmund University Surgical Intensive Care Unit, in Esmund Siap. You have been administered pain killers and have had some reconstructive surgery, so your memory may be a little fuzzy at first, but it will return. Do not try to move too much." he stood up slowly, folding his hands in front of him, speaking as softly as a soldier (and sometime profesional assasin) could. "My name is Specialist Paul Kesson, and I am the man who has been assigned by The Community of Siap to handle the terrorist situation. I will need to ask you some questions, but first would you like anything?"

Matthew attempted to sit up, sucessfully. "No, thank you, I am fine for the time being," he began. "However, I would like to inquire about the state of my nation. Has General Atlus taken control?" he asked.

"Yes. He has taken control and has declared Martial Law. SIN has sent another specialist to monitor the situation." Kesson's phone rang. "Excuse me for a second."

Kesson attempted to speak into the phone. After speaking louder and enunciating his words several times, he deactivated the device he had activated earlier.

"Charlie Victor Romeo? The CVR? Whats it say?" He listened. "Good. I want you to run a photospectral analysis on the fragments. Look for remnants of dense plastics or thickeners. Come to think of it, run a test for RDX and aluminum oxidizers or platinum. Right, anything that could be rocket fuel."

Kesson's mind was racing. He turned to Matt. "We recovered the black box. Apparently there was some cockpit chatter about being attacked. From what we can tell about the cockpit chatter and the initial ballistics studies from the fragments, the plane was brought down from an outside explosion. Meaning it may have been shot down. What also makes no sense is that we were told that the terrorists were on board the flight you were on board. The flight was destined for our capitol, but fearing for our nation's safety we told the pilots to divert to Castle Atoll. We were going to create the pretense of a customs inspection, but in actuality we had a team standing by that would disable the craft and board it and capture the terrorists. It was strange that your military had wanted to simply destroy the aircraft, with nuclear weapons especially, when it would have made more sense strategically to allow them into Siap and capture them for the sake of intel. This whole thing stinks."

He turned away from Matt, took off his sunglasses, rubbed his eyes and put them back on, and faced Matt.

Fucking hell. I think we were just used. It makes sense, actually. We're given bad intel, leader is out of the picture, crazy general declares martial law. We were just manipulated into aiding a coup.

Kesson composed himself. "I think something big just happened. Something weird is going on. Would you mind filling in the picture for me?

Esmund International Airport

The small Gulfstream V sat on the tarmac as three men in suits, military IDs, approached a younger man with a black suit and red shirt, with no military ID. They handed him a briefcase.

"You are looking to meet with a General Atlus. You will need this." He handed the man a black passport. It was a diplomatic corps. passport. The name read "Quentin Luchesse". "You know what to do from there, Mr. Luchesse."

"Thank you." The man smiled, taking the passport. As he walked up the stairs to the plane, another one of the men shouted, "You pull this off, Ty, we will triple your operations budget."

The plane taxid onto the runway and took off for Opatia.

Matt looked angry, and began to curse in Opatian. "We have a problem. Atlus has had many connections with Loyalists. I began to suspect he was one, myself. Do you have a flight number on the aircraft that attacked me? If so, then let me see," he said, as the specialist handed him the intel. "Damn. This is an Opatian Military Flight." he said.

Back in the Opatian Military De-Briefing Room, Atlus began to talk to his computer. Not really to his computer, but to another loyalist. "The plan is going perfectly. I have sent an Opatian Military Flight to down the president. I now have full control of the government. Down to the basics we go."

Matthew stood up, and, ignoring the pain and the doctors, walked straight to the specialist. "I want you to send a fully military flight to bomb the hell out of the Capitol. We can rebuild. I just want that idiot out of office, now. I would also like you to send a covert-ops team to Capitol City. As soon as he is ... forced out of office, there will be an election."

"Sir, please sit down." He said trying to calm Matt down. His phone buzzed again. He lifted it to his ear and stepped out of the room. After less than a minute, he returned. "A specialist has been sent to monitor the situation."

...

The man in the suit stepped off the private jet. His smile shone, no matter what the lighting conditions. He approached the airport guards that approached him. "I am a diplomat from The Community of Siap. I have a proposition for General Atlus..."

"Calm down?! What are you...," he began. Suddenly he calmed down, and looked a bit scared. "You say you sent a specialist?"

Back in Opatia, the full military force was at the airport where the specialist has arrived. General Atlus was at the front. "You are under arrest under Federation Marshall Law Regulation. You will be detained here, and your country will be notified. I would also like to tell you that Siap is considered an enemy by our government, now." the corrupt General told them.

Matthew was sitting down. "Damn. This means that your government will declare war. Look, I need you to contact your government and tell them everything!" he said.

"The Community sent him. He's one of our younger ones. Frankly, I think he's insane. Always tends to leave a pile of bodies behind..." Kesson trailed off. "Anyway, I have arranged for you to make a deposition before The Council of Ten. They shall convene the day after tomorrow."

...

The man in the suit stood, clutching his briefcase. He stood perfectly still as the soldiers approached him. When one soldier grabbed his arm, he thrust his body into that soldier, positioning his center of gravity under the man, whilst twisting his arm in a painful position. The soldier was forced to hunch over the man in the suit, preventing him from being shot. He then stood up promptly thrusting the soldier off his back onto the ground, still holding his briefcase, producing a small device that had a blinking red light and beeped. The frequency of the beeping and the blinking increased. He held the device in the air, placing his finger over a button, screaming "Stand down your weapons or everyone dies!"

He looked around, patiently waiting for the soldiers to obey.

"I am going to attatch this device here..." He plugged it into a small wire coming out of his shirt. "...And here. If my heart should stop beating for whatever reason, or my brain activity be stopped for whatever reason, or this device or any of the other devices attatched to my body be tampered with, everyone within a fifty mile radius will be promptly released to their maker. And if I am not returned to my home within two days' time, a war of a thousand suns shall be waged upon this land."

He held a gloved hand up to his mouth and coughed lightly. "And here I believed you were people to be reasoned with."

"My leaders are prepared to offer General Atlus a deal. It is an excellent deal. My charge is only to present him with this deal, and then leave. I come in peace, and I will leave in peace. No one shall die needlessly."

He looked around at the guards. "And before you get the idea, searching my briefcase will yield you nothing but the paperwork of our proposal and the clothes I have brought for tomorrow."
