CHAPTER 3: The World Conference 1

 

UNISON CONTINENT

At the Unison City Conference Center. All the Presidents of each continent, all head scientist, all Headmasters of each District, and all the heads of O.W.O.C., including Captain Jenkins attended. The world President, Mack Devoy, was in the center.

Mack: Good Morning ladies and Gentlemen, it appears that we have a few issues going on around the planet that needs to be addressed. First off, let’s start with Hurricane Heather. Can I have meteorologist Nate Benson to update us.

Nate Benson stepped to his podium.

Nate: Thank you Mack Devoy. As you know Hurricane Heather formed over Reid Continent in most polluted area. Causing the storm to have spots of acidic rain. The cause on why this storm formed so fast is still being analyzed. Nothing has ever happened like this and we were totally unprepared. Right now, the storm is in the middle of the Ried Ocean and is expected to make landfall on Northeast Monochello Continent. Fort City, and many of the towns and villages are doing a good job on making sure everyone is evacuated before the storm hits. The wind is now being clocked at 300 miles per hour. We had to send in a bunch of Photo Probes to get information because a lost a team in the storm earlier today. We will continue to give updates as this storm continues its path.

Mack: Thank you Nate. Now can I have Geologists Bryson Jones to update us?

Bryson Jones stepped to his podium.

Bryson: Thank you Mack Devoy. There has been reports all around the planet of mini quakes shaking cities, towns, and villages. The quakes seem to be getting stronger and more frequent as well. This has also taken us by surprise and we have everyone we can looking for answers on what could be causing this. What makes this event special is the fact that we have been seeing activity coming from all volcanoes around the world, including the dead and dormant ones, especially Mt. Finine. Ladies and Gentlemen, I don’t have to tell you why we need to keep an eye on these volcanoes. We have many members of my team analyzing the volcanoes to see if an eruption is possible. We will keep you informed as well. Thank you.

Mack: Thank you Bryson. May I have Captain Leroy Jenkins of the Outer World Observation Center?

Jenkins walks to his podium.

Jenkins: Thank you Mack Devoy. We have seen major fluctuations in the air temperature and the core temperature as well since this morning. The ozone over Industry City is now 70 percent gone which is causing the huge heat wave over the area. As far as if that was a factor for the hurricane is yet to be determined. This took us by surprise also and we don’t have many answers as well. I'm sorry. We just don’t know why our planet is acting crazy right now.

Mack: We will hold another conference tomorrow night and I expect answers.

Mack got up and walked off with his bodyguards. Headmaster Johnson was looking at Unison District Headmaster Sean Peeples.

Johnson: Look at that bastard. Yeah, his army may be better than mine but once we get those diamonds, he will be on his knees begging for me to accept his surrender and I will make him suffer.

Headmaster Peeples was with General Larus.

 Peeples: Why is that frigging idiot staring over here?

Larus: He's still bitter about the surrender. Especially since he will have to announce the peace treaty at the conference in Monochello City tomorrow.

Peeples: Well, he should have thought about that before he killed many innocent people on a power trip. Guys like him don’t deserve to be headmaster of any district. Guys like him don’t deserve to be a leader of anything. We did a good thing interfering with his civil war. So, if he’s bitter he can bring his punk ass over and I’ll whoop his ass personally again.

Larus: (Chuckles) that would be funny.
