"Oh, I could always get some molerats to tunnel into their silos, and have em munch on something important...But I understand your sentiment." Lyn said as she smoothed out the dress she was still wearing from the wedding. "It's good to see you okay though. You looked pretty rough back there."

Alex pointed to his chest. "I got shot by an anti-material rifle. I was lucky not to be blown in half. Anyways, thanks for seeing me. If you ever need to gamble or whatnot, come to my casino. I can allow your animals in."

Mieux was in the beating heart of his empire, the generator room accessible only from his penthouse, in here was the what kept Arcadia and it's residents in it's Pre-War safety. He was clicking various consoles, the loud clang and pump machines as he siphoned power from old NYC power grids, an old Vault, and the reactor he had installed shortly before the War. All in all, he had enough electricity to run NYC as a whole for 100 years, meaning Arcadia had more than enough electricity, but he was being miserly with his power, rationing it evenly to his little city. He tapped the keys on his terminal at a steel bolted down desk, typing out where to direct power, turning on more power, this time to the 'refugee quarter'. Mieux's generator room was his final fallback point should his defense be breached, so he had an additional wall of monitors down here too. he flcikered one to where the Director was. Mieux could be barely heard over his generators, so he shut the soundproof doors. "Mr. Williams, is there anything I can do for you?"

Acting President Alan James Sutler

Sutler had been receiving worrying reports from the eyebot scouts, worrying indeed. Large scale armies on the move, battling each other; now what was it Adams had said... Sutler grinned, Stupid Fool he smirked. [i]Still I guess he may be right on some fronts, maybe the wasters do have something to offer the Enclave, if only for now.[i] There was only one person in the wasteland he knew that might be of some use to him. [i]This was going to be painful. Sutler left his office and proceeded to the command center deep in the bunker and approached the PoseidoNet visual communications array which Miuex had already proved he had access too. Sutler opened a line to Arcadia. [i][censored]s sake, here goes. He smoothed his hair.

"Mr Miuex? This is Acting President Sutler of the Enclave of the United States of America, I was hoping we could have a talk."

Before he could let Williams speak, Mieux saw a communication the monitor labeled 'Posiedonet' "Oh christ, it's the Enclave." Mieux, audible to Sutler, called out "switch monitor and audio access to monitor six." When he was sure he was firmly established with the Enclave, he spoke in a rushed but tired tone, trying to multitask alot of work in the past two days since the assassination attempt, "Yes Mr. President? What can I do for you?"

Miuex's face replaced the "connecting" screen. Sutler saw a tired and possibly stressed Miuex, different from the host he had seen a few days ago, almost like himself really; Sutler smiled.

"Miuex, my eyebot scouts have brought me troubling news, large-scale armies have being going to war nearby, I lack the local knowledge to know what has been transpiring over these last few days but I have... reconsidered a possibility of a pact between us. An alliance, of a temporary nature of course, whilst these factions threaten both of us. I know little about them however, perhaps you could fill me in?" Sutler cleared his throat. "This is an alliance of necessity, I won't apologise for my previous behaviour, the slate between us will be wiped clean, a fresh start as it were. I donate a squad to aid in your defence, perhaps your friend the Colonel will volunteer when he's better, and you... well we shall see. What I am proposing is open communications between us... for now."

"An anti-material rifle? Damn, I should have picked that up while we were in there..." Lyn said jokingly. "Thanks for the invitation though, but I'm not exactly rolling in caps. I also doubt anyone around here takes ring pulls like they do back home. Wonder if there is anywhere I could earn some caps, with my skill set." Lyn thought for a bit before continuing. "Oh, and I went to see Frank before I came here. He wasn't as lucky as you were. He's still alive, but he's going to be out for quite some time."

Mieux, yawned, not out of disinterest, but in tiresome awareness. "Forgive me Mr. President, but I've slept maybe three hours in the past two days, I've been rushing to take care of refugees from small settlements outside New Rabbiton and New Manhattan residents fearing it will be bombed, I could only take in 100 of them, the rest are squatting outside my gates, but I'm still feeding them, the stresses of such sudden resource allocating is very frustrating and very delicate. Either way, I won't mind troops, but I dont want your hardliners here, five of the refugees I took in were ghouls, very valuable for their pre-war knowledge, as to our relationship, Adams said no, I'm not going to attempt any more behind your back offers. I can see your distrust and I don't blame it. Also, this is the beginning dossier on what happened." Mieux hit a button, and heard a printer spooling out a 50 page file on Sutlers side. " To vaguely summarize it, Williams got married two days ago, and was targeted for assassination, and through sheer chaos effect, this well known mobster in their town was shot, Williams, being in an uproar, launched an assault and raised New Rabbiton, then he marched on someone called 'The Lake Federation'. I havent much data on them, seeing as their in the area of New Jersey, or, back in my day it was New Jersey." He rubbed his eyes with one hand then said on a more personal note, "Mr. President, I won't apologize for my actions either, and nor do I expect you to, perhaps we are both to proud and set in our ways, to old dogs who refuse to learn new tricks," Mieux chuckled in a friendly way," But either way, if you're willing to forgive my rather underhanded attempt, I'll be glad to work with each other if you're willing to forgive and forget."

"Well, if you need some quick caps, I have some jobs that need doing, mostly delivery of packages. For more caps, you could be a caravan guard a couple of times."

"Oh, and I went to see Frank before I came here. He wasn't as lucky as you were. He's still alive, but he's going to be out for quite some time."

Alex nodded. "He got hit near his lungs and heart. He is tough though, I know it. I am sure he will make it through."

OOC: I thought it said Rabitton was a colony on the edge between NYC and Jersey, and that it was owned by Lake Federation. (Is so confused now :unsure2: )

Sutler glanced to his right at the document slowly churning out of the printer, he listened intently.

"Williams... he's the Director of the Gauss Project correct? Yes consider them sent as soon as possible, your "refugees" will not be harrassed thought I must ask, 100? I didn't know Arcadia had the room. As for trust," Sutler's tone darkened. "Do not cross me again Miuex, I will never put any trust in "your kind" but I will work with you, the Enclave has in the past dealt with wasters even if we were screwing them, but know this, I have done things too cruel to possibly comprehend, acts of barbarity on individuals who crossed me simply by existing; the destruction of Arcadia wouldn't even warrent a snort of derision, it would be an everyday occurence. But as long as you don't betray me, we'll be alright, I'll forget. Do you understand?"

Mieux shrugged it off, "Before? No we wouldnt have. But I was born before the war, I have a dream of reviving New York, as such, I've aggressively expanded my empire. Still am." Mieux took a sip of coffee," As to your threats of reprisal, relax Sutler, had I been sore about Adams turning me down, I'd have killed him, no, I have no want for war, war is bad for business, I am to see to it I can hold my rightful claim over everything I have rigorously preserved and rebuilt." He paused a moment," as to where I stand, I won't help monsters, but I'm willing to make a neutral business pact with anyone if they arent scum of the earth. Perhaps you will come to understand that I am merely a relic of the past, no mere Waster could build what you or I have built. As well, if you ever wish to visit, we have a Vertibird now, courtesy of your....'friends' the Brotherhood. Of course, they're sore I took it, but, they don't deserve such beautiful tech. Hell, I was one one of the investors in the Vertibird project before the war, I'm PROUD to see something I more or less paid for given to me by my loyal agents. The point is Mr. Sutler, I'd be glad to give you a ride here my newly painted Vertibird, not that you need a Vertibird ride, think of it as Pre-War Limousine service, if you know what that is I mean."

Dagger 210

"Dagger, change course to GP bunker. We have found an old forgotten entrance into the sewers. From there, blast your way into the bunker. Then, capture Sonia. IF she resists, kill her."

"Alright Capone, on the way now."

Within five minutes, the team had managed to find the entrance, get into the old tunnel, and found the wall. "Lock and load." The head of the squad attached some C4 on the bunkers wall.

"Push the button."

Lake Federation

"So Mr. President. This leaves US at a winning point doesn't it? I recommend you simply surrender. If you do, the Federation will be simply annexed into the Gauss Project and all the citizens will be spared. If not...well I don't have to repeat my promise do I?"

The president turned around, and pushed a button. Suddenly, the wall opened, showing a huge crowd. "Look people of Laketon, the GP leader!"

The entire crowd laughed.
"This [censored] wants us to surrender!"
The crowd laughed again.
"What do we say to him?"
"[censored] YOU!" The crowd was riled up.
"Now dear people of the Lake Federation, fight for the MOTHERLAND!!!"
"FOR THE LAKE FEDERATION!"

The president walked over to the hologram. "My country did not become great by surrendering to the first wussies in a bunker we faced. We became great by persevering. Now William, how about you surrender, before WE kill you?"

Well, by my standards, some peoples posts run at different times. Since I'm not doing any direct combat, and mainly paperwork and relocating refugees, it's not much of anything I need to RP in, the time frame seems reasonable IMO too. As I said before, I seldom ever use time, and this is why. Unless I'm wrong, I took it as two days for Williams and them to gather his army and raise Rabitton.

OOC: Hmm, just thought of a twist, what if this new camp is a Federation camp that's undercover? And they're going to use the ghouls against New Manhattan? (Only a few members, namely those four I've given names are Federation members.)
Would that be okay`?

OOC: I've been writing the characters name wrong. :ahhh:

Artemis Hyperion & Elaine De'Chant

Dawn brew over the horizon. Artemis had lied awake for the past hour just staring up at the tents ceiling while Elaine rested on his chest. A slight moan could be heard as she stretched her arms and opened her eyes at Artemis. "Hi." She smiled. "Morning" Artemis answered with his deep voice as Elaine felt vibrations from his chest as he spoke.
"So." She stretched again. "Should we get ready for morning?" Artemis nodded as they both got up. Artemis put his cargo pants on, it's left leg was trashed up to his knee. "shouldn't you get a new pair of trousers ey?" Elaine pointed at the pants left leg. Artemis smiled. "My size isn't very in right now." Elaine chuckled as she tied her boots. After they had dressed themselves they stepped out of the tent. The sun was as strong as ever. Artemis covered his eyes as he squinted his eyes and scanned the area. Elaine looked back a little puzzled and noticed he rushed over to Arzt's tent's shadow. "Not a fan of the sun I take it." Arzt stepped out from behind the tent in only his green trousers closing his zip. "No." Arzt walked out into the sun and faced the sun head on while closing his eyes and taking a deep breath. "Too bad, it feel extra warm today." He opened his right eye and sneered down at Artemis. "Does it have to do with your..." Artemis looked up a little annoyed. "Yes." Arzt laughed as he walked over to a chair with a white truck top on it. "Well I'm sorry for being so forward but yknow, I haven't seen your kind around before so I'm a little intrigued." Arzt proceeded to put it on, his body was in shape for his age but the truck top was still loose, maybe even loose enough to fit Artemis. He tucked it in and scratched his chin a little. "So, have you given any thought to the whole ghoul deal?" Artemis had thought about it all night. "Yes, I'm willing to help." Arzt grinned like never before as he squinted his eyes and laughed. "Good! Good. So, you wanna go today?" Elaine came around the corner with a couple of water bottles with surprisingly fresh water. She handed the larger one to Artemis and the smaller one to Arzt. Artemis opened up the cap and started drinking heavily, water was not something he had the virtue to drink most of the time. After finishing the bottle and letting out a big satisfied "ah" he looked back at Arzt, "Yes." Arzt started jogging towards his tent "Great, wait here." Elaine sat down next to him. "So, we're actually gonna go through with this?"
Artemis smiled and gave a nod.

OOC: The points of events happened like this. As William and Sonia were about to be wed, an assassin from the Federation tries to kill William. He fails and accidentally hits Frank in a vital area, sending him to the med-bay to stabilize him. William is outraged and rallies much of the New Manhattan area to attack the Federation head on and promises in one year, Laketon will burn. As for time...probably a day and since the wedding was early...yeah, about a day passed.

Sonia

Sonia watched the New Rabbiton "massacre" as the New Manhattan news called it. Obviously, it was supported by the Gauss Project so nothing was said that would upset any GP citizens. The news reporter looked at the scene of the carnage and nodded at the camera. "This morning, Director William Snowe has been officially cut off by the Lake Federation assassins. More on this story later but for now, our Director had attacked New Rabbiton with a mass equivalent to 1000 units and promised that every city in the Lake Federation will be burnt to the ground by around the clock bombings."

Sonia smiled a bit reassuringly at the newscast. That's my William... She thought to herself, also wanting revenge on the Federation. The Gauss Project bunker was to be an impenetrable structure specifically taken from Vault tech specs and was built to specification for Robco board members. Then suddenly, a massive explosion rocked her off her feet while the alarms rang throughout the miniature bunker and the turrets all activated.

"What's going on?!" She yelled before ten soldiers rushed to Sonia. "There was a huge C4 explosion near the entrance...I think the west wall blew up!" The soldiers all lined up next to Sonia while the small band of MK 1 Securitrons all formed another ring around her. "Your call Mistress Snowe, should we stick to you?"
Sonia nodded, trying to speak properly at the turn of events.

Director William Snowe

William stood silent as the President showed off his minions to the Director. The President turned to William. "My country did not become great by surrendering to the first wussies in a bunker we faced. We became great by persevering. Now William, how about you surrender, before WE kill you?"

The Director stood silent for half a minute before turning to the massive crowd. "People of Laketon! Your rivers will boil, your houses will burn, every soldier will be butchered, every woman and child will be sold to slavers, and all of the Federation will die!" William turned to the President. "Your General decided to send an assassin on the happiest day of my life, the wedding day...so I'll be sure to be there on your worst day of your life...the day you are hanged by my Securitrons. Cheers."

William disconnected the line and then called the army, who was steadily advancing onto the first frontier of the massive Lake Federation. "Open the Securitron bunker!" With a push of the button, the legion of 300 Securitron MK2, best of the class, all piled up, ready for the first attack on the Federation home.

OOC: I thought that your army was in New Rabitton, not in the middle of Michigan. Lansing/Laketon is located smack dab in the center of Michigan.

Dagger 210

"Advance!" The squad of four had the best weapons the Federation could muster. A group of guards was quickly cut down. "Keep moving, kill everything in our path!"

The squad was wearing Chinese Dragoon Armor, and were almost totally invisible. They rounded a corner, and tackled a guard. "Take his passcard!" One of the squad moved in, and took his passcard.

Dagger 210 went into a back closet, and shut the door. "Where do you think this broad is?"
"Well, maybe on the "Top GP people floor?"
"Duh."

The squad cut a hole in the air vents, climbed in, and started to head toward Sonia.

President Fairfield

The Director stood silent for half a minute before turning to the massive crowd. "People of Laketon! Your rivers will boil, your houses will burn, every soldier will be butchered, every woman and child will be sold to slavers, and all of the Federation will die!" William turned to the President. "Your General decided to send an assassin on the happiest day of my life, the wedding day...so I'll be sure to be there on your worst day of your life...the day you are hanged by my Securitrons. Cheers."

"Go to hell."

William cut the line, much to the dismay to the crowd. "Get him!" "Yeah!" "Death to the GP!" "Arrogant idiot!" "Lets torch William at stake!"

President Fairfield walked over to the podium. "People of the Lake Federation. Do not worry. These wussies use robots, instead of attacking us with flesh. They are cowards. So, in the name of peace, justice, and democracy, I call for a draft! For the Motherland!"

"For the LAKE FEDERATION!"

"Join the army, defend your country! Fight the invaders! Kill them all! Deny William and his aggression!"

"KILL THEM ALL!!!" A large GP flag was dropped from the Laketon Capital building. People teared at it, stomped on it, and destroyed it. Most of the crowd soon enlisted in the army.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"Alright generals." The head general said as he smoked a cigar. "They outclass us, but not outnumber. We have a total domination in terms of ammunition, and troop numbers."

"But they will slaughter us head on. We need to bog them down somewhere."

"Exactly, we can't fight them head on, but we need to. I want every single troop you can muster to head down into Ohio, and just wipe them out with numbers."

OOC: The attack on New Rabbiton was a quick and decisive battle. The moment after the battle, the main force of the army marched to the Lake Federation and they had Vertibird transport and APC transport.

Director William Snowe

"Are the MK 2 Securitrons ready for battle?" William asked to his new head scientist after he took the role of being the decisive ruler of the Gauss Project. The scientist nodded. "Yes sir! We just need a target and they'll be shelled with 600 rockets and 40mm grenades."

William smiled. "Alright, are the mobile SAM silos ready?"
The scientist nodded. "Yes of course, we just need a target."
William headed out of his fortified tent and ordered a hundred rockets to be shot at the first military outpost of the Federation. The outpost went up in flames. He smiled as the flames went up, although in the cities will be much harder to take than regular outposts.

He pressed a couple buttons on his terminal and the satellite shot down another hologram. Before the strike team was sent, he needed to crush their morale as much as possible. William knew they outnumbered the Gauss Project 10 to 1. But what's so good about numbers when it's the equivalent of a bunch of men running around with rifles going up against somebody with robots with armor plating.

"Mr. President...my army has finally met your army. And crushed it in a second with a rocket barrage. I was not kidding when I said I will bomb your cities 77 times a day."
