News Broadcast: Attacks on Atlantis and Wakanda
Staggered and vague reports are coming that Dr. Doom has now followed his unprovoked aggression against neighboring Symkaria with attacks against Atlantis and Wakanda. As both of these nations are insular and isolated, these reports have been difficult to confirm, and no public announcements have been made by any of the governments involved. There are even rumors that the respective kings of Atlantis and Wakanda are missing in action.

Even though all the reported victims so far have been isolated or marginalized nations, the U.N. and various governments around the world are reported to be in an uproar trying to decide what action to take.

	Kelly does still occasionally watch the news. It occasionally fills in for the old mission briefings. "Doesn't make a lot of sense, Doom has to be expecting retaliation at this point. We ought to be hearing from my half-sis soon, Symkaria is going to need some more guns." (Reply to this)(Thread)

	"We'll be ready to go when it is, babe. Though, I gotta say...I always heard Doctor Doom was smarter than this. It's one thing to go after a neighbor, but then to kick the beehive and piss off other people, too? Just sounds like bad business to me." Melissa says. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

"Oh, there's definitely something wrong here. You need short range ground forces to occupy a neighboring country... long range, rapid assault capability deployment to attack a mid-African nation, and undersea assault deployment to hit Atlantis. The whole region around him will be on alert now, including a strong probability of the Winter Guard stepping in. Doom either has a trump card, or he wants to get attacked by someone."

"Hey, he's been kicking around awhile. He's probably planned this out and gone over it a million times with his Risk set. But you're right...we're not seeing something here. They say Doom's no slouch in the brains or brawn department.

He's already jumped his nearest neighbor, a country that's never been conquered and the king of the frickin' sea, who everyone knows will be on our assess because of his next summer." Melissa says, letting the situation play out in her mind and trying to follow it to a conclusion.

"So, far he's attacked countries with monarchies, right? Where do you think he'll hit next?" she asks.

	Well damn. One attack was a headache. This is going to be a full on constant migraine. Time to get on the phone and prepare an official statement. "Gio, I'm sorry, going to have to cancel dinner again. Can you make arrangements for delivery and lots of very strong coffee?" (Reply to this)(Thread)

	"Of course." And she'll get right on it. "Is there a pattern I'm not getting, Andrew?" she asks. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	burnwithlight 2010-10-06 03:40 am UTC (link)
	She listens and nods. "Last I heard, Latveria and Atlantis have lately had very cordial relations. As cordial as Latveria gets, anyway. It seems out of nowhere." She nods again. "I'm sure I'll be hearing Father's opinion of it soon." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	The reclining figure next to him turns her head to him. "Well?" Lisa inquires. "You've got your game-face on." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Kristoff Vernard watches the television in silence for a while. Then it's nearly ripped out of his throat. "What do you want, Master?" He goes to the communication systems. SHIELD first. (Reply to this)(Thread)

	Communications coming into SHIELD from other teams and persons-of-interest were channeled through the head office first. Valentina was usually the one to speak to the caller. This was one of those times. "Dr. Vernard." She moved to stand in front of the vidcomm screen in her office as his image appeared. "What can I do for you?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Ms. Fontaine," he says with a polite nod. "I am sorry to interrupt at what is probably a busy time, but I...apparently have family business to attend to, and do not want to blindside SHIELD or operate at cross-purposes." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	nextgen_parent 2010-10-06 04:48 am UTC (link)
	"Would that family business be in Latveria?" Valentina asked the question to be sure, but she'd been monitoring the situation since the first report broke. The UN had yet to decide what to do and SHIELD's hands were tied until then. Not that the UN stopped Nick Fury when he wanted into a fight, but that was not the party line.

	Akilah narrowed her gaze at the report. She couldn't sit idly by with her country under attack. She was going to have to return as soon as possible. (Reply to this)

	Angelo watches the news intently, jotting down notes to share with Mother and Father when they get home. No doubt they'll be significantly appraised of the situation directly from Magneto, but every bit helps. And he has to be doing something. (Reply to this)

	His stomach is one giant knot, but Vincent finds his way to Kristoff, having been forcing himself to watch the pertinent news updates. "Phral... I'm ready." (Reply to this)(Thread)

	Kristoff nodded solemnly, then called Andrea. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	awesome_andrea 2010-10-06 09:55 pm UTC (link)
	It did not take Andrea long to report. "I assume you wish to go to Latveria?" she asked, not wasting time. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	quitethecharmer 2010-10-06 10:08 pm UTC (link)
	"No." Vincent answers sullenly. "But we're going anyway." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)
