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.]

[At first, Kaneda's eyes widen, because it's all too familiar to how Tetsuo connected to him through telepathy. Hearing a voice in your head? Of course it sounds crazy! And it does now, since he knows Rick or Carl don't have that power.

But when he points to the tattoo, he looks at his own, registered written across it with red, blotchy skin surrounding it. As if Kaneda had tried viciously rubbing at it thinking he could make it go away.

Someone's not exactly proud of it.]


It can..call people?

[ There might have been a time when Rick would judge Kaneda for his choice to register -- when that tattoo would cause him to grimace and point out that they couldn't trust the government and that they would just be made into war tools in the end. But here they are. Being made into war tools. And Rick has nothing to say because his only concern is Carl. So to Kaneda's question, he nods once. ]

Connects right to the network. Jus' like if you had your communicator with you.

Then what's the point of the communicator...

[Well, nevermind. it at least gives him an idea.]


...Rick.


I've got to make a few calls.

[ He nods once. ]

I won't keep you. Stay in touch. I'll be in touch, too.
