"We interupt you programming to bring you live breaking news! Emperor Douben declared a state of emergency in Thalent moments ago as the Imperial Palace was evacuated. The HQ building for The Department of International Affairs was bombed. It is unkown at the moment how many people have died but bodies are being dragged from the still burning building. It is also unclear who is responsible for this. The Imperial Gaurd has refused to comment on the situation and tons gaurds can be seen at the few government buildings that were not evacuated. There are rumors that a suspect is in custody but this has not been confirmed..........(silence) ladies and gentlemen we have just received word that there is a suspect in custody. He claims there is one more attack to come within this week. In addition, by Imperial Decree the borders are hereby close and ALL planes have been grounded. On a final note The Thalent National Organization Against Torture (tnoat) is already working to prevent the suspect from being tortured by the governemnt in an atempt to get information from him. We'll bring you more about this story as it developes!"

5:00 News:
"As you can see behind me the fire is now out and the right side of the building has collapsed. The death toll is estimated at 41 but rescue crews are still searching through the rumble to be sure there are no trapped survivors. Surprisingly after a riot the Emperor said the prisoner will be moved to a prison and will not be tortured. Several threats have already been made in an attempt to protect the still unnamed suspect. Also, The Imperial Gaurd is franticly trying to investigate this attack and prevent any more attacks. Because there is a possiblity that there will be another attack the Thalent Military is now on Defcon One and is preparing for an imminent attack on Thalent."

Emperor Douben's Underground conferance room:
"We can't touch him while he's in that prison!" The Emperor said raising his voice slightly.
"But sir. If the prisoner just happened to "Escape" from his jail cell then we could do whatever. Its not like anybody could do or say anything because it would like he simply "escaped" form prison, nobody would even know where hw as!" One of the Emperor's advisors said with a wicked grin.
"I like the way you think!" Emperor Douben said as he stared out into space.

Thalent Center for Dangerous Persons (A prison):
Two men in civilian clothing walked into the prison.
"Hello. We're here to visit a friend." One fo them said.
"Ok please sign onto the clipboard and give your Photo ID to the guard at the door over there" A fat gaurd sitting at a desk said as he motioned to a cliboard and then to a door across the room. The two men did as they were instructed. They emptied there pockets and walked through a metal detector. They were allowed to keep their cell phones when they went into the prison. The visitors opted to visit the prisoner in his jail cell. The gaurd led the two down a series of locked corridors. When they arrived he took out a baton and hit the metal bars to wake the criminal up, and walked away.
"Hello? Who are you people?" The startled prisoner asked.
"We are friends. We've come to help you escape." They lied about being friends.
"Ok what do i do?"
"Come over here. Get as far away from that wall as possible. Outside that wall is a parking lot. We put explosives on the other side. Ou cell-phones can be used as remote detonators." The taller of the two said as he pulled out his cell phone. The plan worked perfectly. They exploded the wall and escaped with the terrorist. But as they were all speeding away from the prison in a black van one of the two agents pulled out a needle from his clothing. It was plastic so that the metal detectors at the prison would not detect it. He turned around and slamed it hard into the shocked person's arm. Less than a minute had gone by and he was getting dissy and begining to pass out.

The 2:00 PM News(The day after the above news show aired):
"Good afternoon everybody! Today the terrorist who is accused of bombing the Department of International Affairs building has escaped from prison. The Imperial Gaurd said they are working to locate the fugitive but they say it is likley he fled the country."

Secret Prison:
"Were will the next attack be?!" The gaurd scream as he whipped the prisoner.
"I don't know!" He cried out in agony. But the gaurd did not stop until his arm got tired. By the end of the day the terrorist was beaten very badly. He was sure he was in hell.
"You! Get started. Boil the water now. We are going to have ourselves a steamed prisoner for a midnight snack!" The leader of the secret prison barked at a gaurd that was apparently bored because he was leaning against a wall singing to himself.

Official Message from the Aissurian Ministry of Foreign Affairs





We are deeply saddened at the news of the bombing in Thalent. We have decided to send an aid package in the form of 3 billion USD. We have a team of experts working to try and figure out who is responsible in the attacks.





Signed,
Auguste Aldridge
Current head of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs

OOC: is the building underground or above r both and are there security detail outside?
"Ok what do you want! I'll tell you everything, but i what to get out of here and have guaranteed protection from them!" The suspect yells.


"killer7 are you there is Birdsnest."
"Killer7 here, what do you have."
"Sir, We have followed Ivan after he "escaped" from his original holding, we had tracked him down to this building."
"We can win the hearts of the people if we can give proof that this is a building where they conduct torture."
"Have advanced teams 1,2 and 3 secure the building." The soldier says.
"Great we move at dark. have team 5,6,7,8 secure the streets to choke off reinforcements. Over and out" 'Killer7' turns off the radio.

OOC: There is a building above ground. This building is just supply rooms, hallways, offices, ect. Then there is a blastdoor covering a long stairwell leading underground where the prisoners are held/tortured.

IC:
A meeting with the Emperor and his advisors:
"Sir, we don't think this man knows anything else. Last night we poured boiling water on him and then whiped him. Nobody has ever keeped secrets after that." The head gaurd of the secret prison said through the video conferance terminal set up at the table.
"Very well. Make sure he is unarmed. Nock him out and place a tracker under his skin. Release him onto the streets a few miles from the blast site. Follow him until he is near, but not in, a crowd of people. Then go in, make a lot of noise and arrest him in front of the public. They will think that we have simpy recaptured him. And then I will order he be hung in public as a warning to any other terrorists." The Emperor spoke with a chill in his voice that troubled his advisors. He was usually a very kind and understanding leader.

The Secret Prison:
A messenger walked into the room where the terrorist was being tortured and handed the lead guard a scrap of paper and left. There were only two people in the room.
"I.....uuhh.....mmm....He is being released." The guard said as he looked up at the man tied up and hanging by his hands from the roof. The two graurds led him to a room where he got dressed and then took him to a military helicopter that was waiting outside. The helicopter took the still handcuffed prisoner to a military base just outside of the capitol. The man was handed over to a black car. He was driven to an alley just off to the side of a busy shopping complex.

A few blocks from the blast site:
"Leave now. Do not make us sorry we are doing this." The driver of the car said as he took the handcuffs off and let the man walk away down the street. The driver had clear instructions. Follow him. If you does anything shoot him. If all goes well he would go to a payphone, call and tell the police that the fugitive they were looking for is just across the street from him.

To: Auguste Aldridge

Greetings,
We thank you very much for your kind and generous offer! Once this situation is over I would like to establish deplomatic relations with your fine nation! Pherhaps a treaty or embassy?

Long live Soviet Aissur and Thalent,
Emperor Douben

"Killer7! Killer7! they have released Ivan, i have called off operation Hearts and Minds for now."
"Take his face off encase he gets back to the safe house."
"He is in a alley but a car is following him, to bad they don't know we have a eye on them."
"Your man have a silenced SVD?"
"Correct, I will give him the order."

A man dress in citizen clothing aims his rifle over the ledge and targets Ivan's (Just clarifying Ivan is the suspect you questioned) head and fires. "Sorry buddy can't have you screwing up the rest of the operation." the man says after the the guy's head explodes. The man drops the rifle and then runs into the building and blends into the crowd.

Letter enclosed to new station: We are not terrorists. We are here to help save you from your oppressive government. do not sit and do nothing, take to the streets and fight for a better tomorrow in Thalent.

Letter enclosed for thalent government: I am instructed to issue one warning for your government to step down before they all die.

The car down the road:
"Shit!" The driver the said to himself as he put the gas pedal tot he floor and ran straight through the crowd towards where he had seen a man run.

"Mayday mayday! This is Special Agent 442. Suspect being watched has been shot multiple times, assumed dead. Another suspect is on foot and i am in pursuit! Requesting...(shots heard)....immediate back up! Shots fired! repeat shot firrr....." Came over the police coomunications center.
"Calling all available police units. Officer in distress. Possible terrorist is being
persude on foot! One person assumed dead. Shots have been fired. Suspect is armed and very dangerous. Attempt to arrest but do not hesitate to shoot." The rado operator said. Within minutes over half of the cities police force was racing towards the area.

Press Conferance with The Emperor:
The Emperor looked pissed as he walked up to the podium.
"Good evening everybody. There have been threats to the The Thalent governments. Death threats. And death Threats to the government are death threats to me. As of now anybody who any police officer suspects to be a criminal of any kind will be arrested. The police now hae authorization to shoot and kill anybody who resists. A curfew is also now in efect as well. It will be considered treason to be outside after the sun goes down unless you are a part of law enforcment or military. Road blocks and check points are bein set up all over major strees and all reserve miltary and police are hereby being called in to duty. I am sorry to the citizens who have done nothing wrong. It appears thee are selfish people in this world who feel the need to terrorize the general public. Thank you and long live Thalent!" The screen then cut to a video of hundreds of soldiers standing in a grid formation chanting "Long live Thalent" while saluting the Thalent flag.

<Battlehawk Vice President Steven Harrlolsons Motorcade>

"Mr Vice-President" A Battlehawk Secret Service agent sir as he turned around in the front to look into the back "All flights in and out of the country have been stopped and the borders closed"
"Always the bringer of bad news Tom" Steven commented.
"Theres also one more problem sir" Agent Tom Garrison added.
"Oh?"
"They, don't exactly know were actaully here, we were just passing through"
"Tell Agent Brom that I will kill him if we get out of this" Steven commented.
"In his defence sir, we did get clearence to use the freeway to pass through on the way to our destiantion, now we're stuck in the capital"
"And we couldn't use Air force two...why?"
"There was a malufnction on Air Force One, they're checking all the jets"
"So let me get this straight" Steven said "We are stuck in a nation that has just been bombed and has gone on red alert, we've got enough weapons to occupy Paris...ok bad example...but how is that going to look when we get stopped which we eventually will"
"You'll think of something sir" Tom grinned. The Secret Service agent driving tapped his sholdour and pointed out the windscreen. They we're coming up on a blockade.
"Err, sir, you've got about one minute to think"

OOC: thalent do not godmode his arrest/death like ( the police find the suspect, but he pulls a gun and fires at the police so the police return fire and he dies in a hail of gunfire) and try to stop in the future.

As the man races around in the crowd of running civilians he hears gunshots. He gets notices the shots did not ring out towards him so he kept running with the crowd he speaks into his watch microphone "The target is down. They are pursing me, but i don't think they have a fix on me or even a positive id. if they find me i will bite the pill". he then rips off his watch and drops it.

Official message from Macgruber to Thalent: We have heard that there have been recent terrorist attacks in your country. Our intelligence suggests the group is part of a Macgruber based group bent on chaos and death. With your permission we would like to send in a task force to rid the group of your country.

OOC: I dont see how I was doing the whole godmod thing but im sorry if I did. Could you please explain to me what exactley I did? If you meant me saying I assumed "Ivan" was dead I thought you said that.

To: Macgruber

Greetings,
I thank you for your offer to help get rid of this group but I will have to decline. If it isn't too much to ask I would however like to have any information you have on this group (member names, leaders, chain of command, ect.).

Long live Macgruber and Thalent,
Emperor Doubem

The Battlehawk Motorcade rolled to a stop in fron tof the Police Blockade

OOC: well godmoding is controlling something you don't have the power to. Like you telling me what my guy tells you or doesn't or does.

Official message to Thalent: You have no idea what this group is capable of. if you do not let us act soon, they will be in control of your country. Your country simply doesn't have the power to fight off the oppressors. I can have troops there within hours.

OOC: I'm sorry but I still dont see how I was doing that but I'll try to be more careful.

The Police Roadblock:
An Imperial Gaurd wearing a bullet proof vest and a helmet and carrying a standard military rifle walked up to the driver's window.
"Sir. This road is closed. I can let you through if you can provide an ID and a passport. You must also have a good reason. Such as, your a diplomat, or an emergency worker. If not I'm going to have to ask you to make a U-turn and take that lane back the way you came." The gaurd said while motioning towards a lane where people were turning around. There was a bright blue tent on the side of the road just after the roadblock. There was a giant sign on the side that said "ALL FOREIGN DIPLOMATS COME HERE FOR EVACUATION!"


Imperial Telegram:
From: Emperor Douben
To: Macgruber

Greetings.
I must accept your offer of help. However, without sounding to demanding, I do not want to wake up and have a hundred troops marching into town to get rid of this group. I would however like a somwhat small team to come in to help. If it isn't too much to ask I would like the leaders of the group brought to me alive. If your group suceeds they will be awarded The Medal of Imperial Gratitude. Thank you very much for you help and support.

Long live Macgruber,
Emperor Douben

7 C-17s take off from Macgruber air guarded by 10 F/A-18E/F Super Hornet on there flight to Thalent. Addition Planes begin taking off after that.

Because of the very high police present in the area where the sniper opened fire, several dozen Macgruber soldiers (Not carrying any Marking of it) take positions in apartment rooms and set up there weapons Ak-47s,Ak-74s,RPks,RPG7s,Pk machine guns and two Barrett M82 rifles. They began to open fire and anything resembling authority, targeting high profile targets and working there way down. one door man guarded each apartment door with a Spaz12.

OOC: By the way what is your standard military rifle?

[OoC:]I just noticed this thread and i dont see the reason why are you Macgruber bulying the newbie?

OOC: I don't really have a reason besides just being bored and how he started this thread sounds like he would be fun to try to topple his government. anyway as far as i know he is probably having fun so far.... i hope.

[OOC:] Thats ok,i just hope that you will give him a chance to win,etc.dont send a mega expeditionary force to crush him as that wouldn't be very fun and probably someone larger will crush you.Have fun and play nice boys.

[OOC:I wouldn't recommend sending a huge force, or I will come in on the side of Thalent.]

OOC: There will not be a huge force in thalent, anyway if your trying to help him wouldn't provoking a nation with millions of troops in a small country cause in the death a millions of civilians? but don't worry i won't send in millions of troops. if i was it would of already happened.

The Secret Serivce driver siad "This is VP of The Battlehawk, we got ourselves caught in here when that bomb went off"

I didn't even doubt at you Mac =)

Police Roadblock:
"Ok go pull up next to the blue tent over there. Diplomats are being evacuated by helicopter to a neutral country," The Gaurd said as turned towards another gaurd that was controling the gate, "Hey Dave! Diplomat commin through!"
"Ok!" Dave said as he unlocked the gate and pulled it open.




OOC: I'm sorry about this situation with your troops. I have been awake for over 24 hours and I am very tired. I am going to delete that post and go get some sleep. When I wake up I'll try to sort everything out. =D

OOC: thats cool, we all make mistakes when we stay up for 24h i should know that.

"Sir, we have reports of a conflict in Thalent."
"And?"
"We think it's the perfect time to strike the Macgruber forces and blame it on the locals."
"Send four companies by air. Use some no-name civilian aircraft."

OOC: What is the general climate of Thalent?

The Battlehawk Motorcade pulled over and the VP, his staff and his agents all got out

"Sir, you know how you wanted to know whats going in and out of Thalent?
Well theses unidentified planes that originated from Cuborg."
"What do they want?"
"I don't know I'll have planes intercept them and if they have hostile intend we will shoot them down."
"Do it."



A pair of F-22 raptors speed towards the target. Unfortunately for the Cuborg planes the raptors wouldn't show up on there radar. "You are not cleared to pass. turn around or we will be forced to shoot you down." the pilot says.

"We are shipping cargo from Cuborg to Thalent and back and have every right to enter Thalent. Back down, unidentified aircraft."

The Cuborg minister sends this message to Macgruber:
We are sending four companies of mercenaries to protect Cuborg's interests in this conflict, and to survey the Thalent people and their forces, lest they become an future problem.

"I will not allow you to interfere, but you can refuel at a airport and return to your country." the pilot says.

"We will land at the following coordinates..."
