OOC: I hope to make this the catelyst for a military build up and War with North Korea. but did they really do it?

Who know, Who cares; all that can be known for sure is that Japan will call for blood and blood they shall get; this will probably become the war thread

Sea of Japan 22nd September 2008, 8:00PM JST

The Japanese Hatsuyuki class Destroyer was on standard patrol in the Sea of Japan a long boring and relatively mundane patrol used for cadets in the maritime defence forces to train them up. A young cadet no more than 18 stood propped against the hand rail as the sea wind blew through his hair, he was in his Navy whites; cap held just under his arm. The symbol for Ensign on his shoulders.

"Fresh out of the academy Eh?" said another sailor coming up to rest alongside propping his arms on the guard-rail.

"Yeah" came the reply;

"Me too; its hard to believe were sailors already; just seems like yesterday we were entering basic doesn’t it"

The other sailor smiled; "Kaneda, Sea Man first class?" he said holding out his hand

"Testuo; Ensign" he said with an equally bright smile as the two shook hands. It would be the start of a beautiful friendship; or at least it would have been…

There was a large explosion as the ship shook violently making waves crash against the side; "What the hell was that?" there was another explosion this one smaller as smoke pored out of the destroyer and fires spread from compartment to compartment.

"I don't know" Tetsuo replied.

"Abandon ship. All hands, abandon ship!"

"What the…" before Kaneda could finish his sentence there was another explosion this one similar in size to the first; the fuel or ammo magazine was ignited and the ship exploded from the stern forwards. Secondary explosions ripping through destroyer's hull turning it into a flaming skeleton on the water as debris showered sailors who had jumped into the ocean.

The Destroyer sank promptly; its sleek and powerful frame quickly disappearing below the waterline.

2 US warships will head to the area promptly to search the area for survivors and a salvage ship should be sent. With permission, the USN will set about a search.

The US will work with the Japanese on this, and will follow their discretion.

Diplomatic Response

The Maritime Self defence force thanks its US allies for there support and help in this difficult time; though we must ask for the united states to report any submarines in the area around the sea of Japan. As we will be conducting Anti submarines warfare and does not want unfortunate accidents. We believe this to be an open act of aggression by North Korea against the people of Japan.

The Japanese people will show restraint in light of such a hostile act however our patients is no infinite any more such attacks by North Korea will be met with force.

Signed
Secretary of the Maritime Defence forces.

9:30PM Japanese Standard time, Sea of Japan. 30 minutes after the message sent to the US

A Japanese Passenger ship is steaming ahead to South Korea for a standard cruise; it’s a luxury liner pure white and pristine, the decks are covered with tourists and deck chairs and sailors serving rich business men and holiday goers alike. The moon light shines down in the clear cloudless sky as the stars shimmer like a thousand diamonds overhead it’s a beautiful sight.

A woman in a red silk dress is stood at the front of the ship; her long blonde hair blowing back in the wind ever so slightly. She looks happy when a little girl no more than 6 years old runs to her "Mommy mommy!" the girl shouts and hugs onto the woman's leg.

"What is it honey", the woman asks gently.

"Can I have some money for strawberry Ice cream mommy its my favourite" the little girl beams.

"Of course sweetie" the woman says reaching into her purse and taking out some Yen for the little girl. The little girl smiles ear to ear and runs off to the ice cream shop. It would be the last time that either of them would see each other again.

a huge explosion occurs sending a wave crashing over the guard rails; obviously a hit below the water line the water throws the woman over the edge and under the ship into the propellers of the ship leaving a powdery red in its wake the first of many deaths as more explosions rip through the ship throwing more people overboard; men women and children indiscriminately are killed. Blood splatters once pristine white the fine red patterns would be pretty if not so graphic. Body parts lay all around; others scream in pain from there injures. A mixture of burns and lost limbs

one poor man lays up against the wall screaming after being blown in half; children scream at seeing the dead some of which only children themselves. Fire and smoke billow out as survivors try to get to the escape boats the little girl is picked up by a business man in a suit and hurried onto one of the boats. As another explosion causes the entire rear of the ship to disintegrate and shower the escapees with debris impaling some too close killing them outright others merely have shrapnel wounds.

The little girl watches the ones mighty Cruise ship sink below the water line aflame and lighting up the night sky an image that will stay with her for the rest of her life…

sic: A cruiser shall be dispatched with a submarine to the Defense force ship. If any other occurances should occur, we shall deploy Sea Stallion helicopters to provide anti-submarine assistance. Is Japan sure this is a North Korean attack? Could it not have been an accident>

(OOC: Sorry Busy week anyone actually going to be NK in this?)

Japanese Airbase
The silver and black F-15EJ's were taxiing onto a run runway fully armed with Air to Air and anti shipping missiles as the taxied down the runway there engine exhausts lip up the night in graceful blue hue around the rear. One by one the 12 F-15E's shot down the runway and into the air forming a delta wing shape as they headed towards North Korea's nearest airbase under strict orders of radio silence.

“Commence Operation, phase 2” came the order

“This is Viper Leader, all units report in, we have a go, Copy?" Said Viper Leader.

“Viper One copy.”

“Viper two copy.”

“Viper three copy.”

“Viper four copy.”

“Viper five copy.”

Each of the Black F-15's checked in each as scheduled

“All Vipers prepare to break formation and head to your area of operation.” Viper Leader listened as they all sounded off. “Commence operation”

The 12 F-15EJ's broke formation and started there attack run on the Navel complex they believed to be home to the offending warship first came the bombing run, each carried two 250lb Bombs. The strike aircraft targeted Air defence towers, barracks and other command and control buildings as well as the hanger to limit retaliation of ground forces or fighters. The bombs whistled as they free fell from the wings, impacting the ground below in fiery explosions. In a matter of minutes 6000lbs of explosives was dropped upon the navel base distributed at various locations. Next they deployed there anti shipping missiles; each F-15 carried up to a maximum of 4, the missiles fired at various ships in the harbour streaking into the sea below the waterline causing explosive waves as they appeared hit there marks

“This is Viper Leader, All Ordinance has been deployed, Return to base all vipers"

what is SOuth Korea doing? We have no evidence of North Korean involvement. American troops along the DMZ are raising the ThreatCON and all American civilians are being evacuated. Due to the pullout of American forces in Iraq and redeployment to Afghanistan, units shall be sent to the DMZ.
