OOC: Wonderful. Just peachy for me.:rolleyes: I'd personally been hoping we could all iggy this but now we're stuck with it...

"We are on in 5..."
"Díos mío..." Chief Anchorwoman Poliana Bárique of WIBC News was having one of the worst days of her 20-year news career. All because of a hopped-up king in Zanski declaring war on communism-in-general, and a worse teenager claiming to be a communist and assassinating the worst possible foreign dignitary as "proof" of his convictions.
"... 4, 3..."
Do these kids even read Marx before they pull these sorts of stunts? Poliana couldn't help but guess not. Even many other Socialist governments themselves out there seemed about as refined as this late kid...
"...2, 1... and LIVE!"
"Good evening Comrades and viewers the world over. I'm Poliana Bárique, and this is WIBC News. Although reports are unconfirmed, word of the assassination attempt on Lord-Governor President Daniel Pearce of Vetaka has reached our correspondents here in Tailville DR. Although he could not be reached for comment personally, Secretary of State Rilir Alárion nós Carthir had this to say by phone after we contacted him for comment."

Official Statement From the Wagdoggie Government on the Pearce Assassination Attempt. Broadcast Courtesy of WIBC News
"The Wagdoggie government, and myself above all among its members, condemn this act of murder wholly and unconditionally. Vetaka has proven itself a friend of progressive causes the world over, especially the fight against slavery, despite tensions of late due to matters of alliance between our two great nations. And Lord-Governor President Pearce has proven himself to be a most decent and friendly statesman in our estimate; again, especially my own.
I speak not merely as an Edhellen, nor merely as a member of the Greenwood Coalition and the Wagdoggie Government, but as a person when I wish for President Pearce's swift and full recovery. And for Pearce's family to be reassured that this juvenile murderer has reaped what he sowed in his death; that he does not even qualify as a terrorist, for may they be safe from fear in this dark hour. Thank you; and again, our prayers and best regards to President Pearce."

The audio feed having been played out, Poliana wrapped up. "Although we must break for a moment, we shall continue our coverage of breaking developments in this matter. As Always, I'm Poliana Bárique, and this is WIBC News." Somber music played as the WIBC logo swooshed over a recording of the Wagdoggie flag waving against the sunset, to reflect the tragedy of what had occurred in Vetaka scarce time before...

Official Dominion of Vetaka Press Release:

It is my sad and tragic duty to confirm the reports that President Lord Govenor Daniel Pearce leader of the Dominion of Vetaka and its people was shot 3 times by a male. The incident took place at around 4:00am this morning within the Grounds of the Presidential Palace. The President sustained 3 gun shot wounds from a 9mm Semi Automatic Pistol. The attacker we have identified to be Psychopathic Communist of which the Vetakan State was aware of. We do not believe he was part of any Communist or Socialist nation or group. We belive the attack was inspired by the attackers mental health.

The Presidents condition is serious. He was stablized at the scene before been taken to Theeb Capital Hospital where he is currently undergoing emergancy theatre at this time the outcome of which is unpredicatable. The Dominion of Vetaka would like to make it clear that it blames NO NATION OR GROUP this incident was carried out by a very unwell individual the Vetakan Mental Health unit failed to aid the man and as a result a Review of the Vetakan Mental Health system has begun. With the current international situation on Communism The Dominion of Vetaka will not allow any nation or group to use this attack as a pre-text for any possible International Reaction.

At this time this is all the information we have. A Press Conference will soon be made by the Acting President Vice President Roxanne Wright by the end of the day. Our thoughts and prayers are with President Pearce and his family we hope he pulls through.


OOC: The Fighting Stars TG'd myself literally 5 Minutes before the post was made. I decided to accept it. I am unsure as to whether he will live or Die
