AS THE WAR THAWS...

[When the imPorts open their comms, they will come face to face with an uncharacteristic image, ensuring that even imPorts who attempt to ignore broadcasts at large will see it. This is, after all, relevant to each and every imPort.

The image is nothing more than a black screen with white text superimposed on it: STATE OF NATIONAL EMERGENCY.

After a moment, the image will be quickly replaced by one of L. Chases, seated at her desk, hands folded in front of her. Her expression may be grim, but it is firm, and there is nothing but ferocity behind her stare.]


Attention all imPorts, [she starts off, voice crisp and clear.]

We are now in a state of national emergency. As of January 20th, the USSR has officially declared war on the United States, effectively endangering not only the people of America, but the world as a whole. In this time of need there is a strong chance we may have to call upon you, imPorts, to do your duty in protecting your own.

As a part of this declaration of war, the USSR has abducted approximately fifty imPorts, a number which may yet continue to grow. We do not yet know how this was accomplished, but you have our word that our intelligence is active and ready to uncover what form of technology could abduct you from afar.

We are currently in talks with foreign aid and the UN. Retaliation is a risky prospect, but I assure you, we will retaliate. That time draws near, and when it does, we will be asking for your assistance.

Until then, stay aware, alert, and cautious, imPorts. We cannot afford to lose any more of you, and more importantly, your fellows cannot afford it.

[And with that, her broadcast ends. There will be no replies.]

Dunno. I kinda assumed they would? They've been doin' space travel back in my world an' I imagine that's how the astronauts did it.

[ But then again, Rick isn't studied up on this. He doesn't know a damn thing about space travel. He's just a retired sheriff from Georgia who fights zombies for a living.

Really his experience in being helpful with regards to this situation is pretty minimal. ]


But sure would like it better if they ain't in space. Would make it a helluva lot easier to get to 'em.

Well... I don't know. I hear they've never gotten very far into space, so I assumed their technology wasn't ultra advanced, either.

[Though he doesn't really know anything about it either. Even back home, Gummi ships have gravity. He doesn't know whether that's a property of the Gummis themselves or something that has to be added in, though.]

Yeah, seriously. Guess we'll just have to... take in any clues we get.

Yeah...

[ Rick agrees. It's glum agreement. He really feels so helpless right now. ]

I'll jus'. I'll bring you his clothes. You'll let me know, won't you? If you got any luck trackin' him?
resipiscent: (melancholy so please tell me you're joki)

[personal profile] resipiscent 2016-01-27 05:23 am (UTC)(link)
Yeah, of course. I'll message you when I figure something out.

Good.

[ A beat. And then a more meaningful: ]

Thanks, Riku.
resipiscent: (thoughtful)

Don't worry about it. You can thank me once we've finished this.
