The White crown of Toopoxia fluttered across the screen as the usual music played in the WPNC Live announcer who faded in from the image of the Flag, attempting to appear both sorrowful and unemotional at todays headline, an image of the former Dictator appeared behind the desk and the jet black haired man sighed.

"Doctors announced today that David Gaius Du'Font passed away today aged 62 from periocarditis(sp?) a viral infection affecting the heart, unfortunantly he left no name to take his stead."

The image displaying Du'Font suddenly changed to a picture of men wearing balaclavas marching down the street, unlike the normal stereotype of man wearing similar clothes this man was clad in the uniform of the Tooopoxican Police forces.

"In related news, thousands of Police brigades have began the march on the streets to stop any plans to take advantage of this situation by Anarchists, a curfew has been put into place and there are reports of Military personell joining as volunteers to boost numbers and stop any potential riots."

The news announcer stopped to let the article settle in and for the film to play announcing this double tragedy, the announcer suddenly let out a breath of relaxation as he was informed of his being off air.

"Was it alright? Are you sure I didn't let the people panic?"

There was a murmer of reassurance from the technical crew, the announcer let out another breath, he sat waiting for the music to bring him back in, opening his mouth for the first word when suddenly the doors to the studio shattered open and Police forces ran in.

An air of panicked calm washed over the studio, the announcer stayed seated, planted by fear into the ground, a man in formal uniform marched in he brushed off his hat from the splinters of the door.

"I'm sorry for the rude entry but perhaps it would not have been needed if you would have only let us in."

The announcer stared at the camera hoping that the feed was still live and that this was all being broadcast live.

"Oh do not worry about the camera Mr Markovic, we made special arrangements to allow us time to prepare, right now the people are being assured that this is a minor technical glitch."

Markovic the announcer looked back suddenly in confusion.

"Pre... Prepare? For what, I have no idea what you're talking about..."

Markovic raised his hands for fear of being shot and as an attempt at cowardly announcing his want to survive more than futily struggle.

"Please, there's no reason for panic, you are in the presence of your new national leader, I Leonovic Gardus will tonight announce my plans to fill the space left by Du'Font."

Leonovic handed over a sheet of small cards.

"You are to ask these questions, any deviation from doing so will result in you being the first executed under my reign."

The wannabe dictator sat in the seat to the right of Markovic who sat stunned looking at the camera.

"We have live feed back, Markovic..."

Markovic suddenly brought himself back to composure and looked down at the first cuecard.

"Ummm, sorry for the technical difficulties, it was the result of atmospherics, I have here with me Police Lord Constable Leonovic Gardus, who wishes to make an announcement to the nation."

"Thank you Mr Markovic, I do not wish any citizen to panic, this is not a cause for alarm but simply a measure at preventing our civilisation from crumbling, I will not however be surrendering my role as Police Lord Constable as I beleive that it would be detremental to our efforts in reducing crime, the current Curfew will be over shortly and life will soon return to normal, I intend in my reign to assist the forces of order in the fight against crime, to make the lives of people much better and to remove this rediculous tax hike that Du'Font made in his time of power, My new friend, Markovic Aurbellius will keep you informed, for now that is all."

OOC: You never asked any questions to your new dictator. It was all one statement.

Anyways, Free Bump.
