[Voice, locked to residents] --EMERGENCY--EMERGENCY--EMERGENCY--EMERGENCY--

[malnosso]

[At 2:15AM, the journals suddenly blare out an alarm, followed by this message.]

EMERGENCY. EMERGENCY. This is an emergency.

The following occupants of the Luceti enclosure must report to the teleporters in twenty minutes. You are required as reinforcements in Region 13. Bring all necessary armaments with you. You will be teleported directly into combat.

Anyone who fails to comply will be forcibly escorted to the teleporters by droids.

This is not a drill. I repeat: this is not a drill. You have twenty minutes.

[The message repeats twice more, the alarm continuing until the twenty minutes has elapsed. No questions will be answered.]

[tea_lover64]

A silver sandwich? What does that even mean?

[Yes, you most certainly did]

[lordhotman]

It's... uh... a Water Tribe delicacy.

[... Yeah that's convincing.]

[tea_lover64]

You know, if you are going to lie to me, you should probably not make it about food.

[Just going to bring up the obvious flaw there]

[lordhotman]

[Zuko cringes.]

Just forget I said anything!

[Teleporters!]

[lostinmyway]

Yes, isn't it? They're all so good.

[Transporters!]

[lostinmyway]

You're welcome!

Are you going to be protecting the village with a friend?

[Teleporters]

[lostinmyway]

Oh, spice cake sounds delicious! I'll make sure to find a good recipe.

[Transporters!]

[whiskytraitorfirefight]

['The only friend I have is staying in the village.' There are certainly people she knows, people she'll fight beside and defend with her life, but they aren't friends. They're allies and there is a distinct difference.

But that's not something easy to explain so Ginia only nods.]

[gunkonmyboot]

Looking forward to it. [His curious pings as well. Did they ever introduce themselves?]

[Teleporters!]

[ledbythewind]

They are indeed, which is why you should choose whatever flavor you want to make.

[whiskytraitorfirefight]

[Ginia gives a small salute and manages a grin. As long as she can smile, even if it's fake and forced, then things are okay.]

When this is all over, drinks on me.

[amonglions]

Do you need anything else? Anything you don't got in here?

[He shouts it over his shoulder as he unceremoniously goes into the kitchen and grabs several bowls to set on the floor and fill to the brim with food for Nemo. The pup goes a little crazy, running around excitedly without any idea of what was going on before diving headfirst into a bowl.]

Don't eat it all at once, genius.

[It's about all Booker can do as he fills up the same amount of water, because everything needs water, right?]

[Action]

[voidseeing]

You got it.

[He gives her hand a reassuring squeeze, dropping their joined hands down to their side. It's been a while since he's been in battle, and unlike Elizabeth, he's geared up for it.

But he's wise enough to keep his excitement under wraps for now simply because he knows she doesn't feel the same way. For this fight, his first priority is keeping her safe, whatever that may take.]

[tearmeanewone]

Uh--! [Elizabeth is still rushing around, trying to pack the rest of her things before getting clothes on. Would she need spare clothes?] Rosalind and I practiced shooting a little, I suppose I'm going to need ammunition for a pistol!

[lastfonmasterguardian]

[It was rare to see the Colonel this serious, and it kind of scared her. But, she'd worry about that later. For now, she'd focus on being able to protect Ion.]

[She didn't care who came after him; they wouldn't be able to get through Anise Tatlin.]

Roger that, you can leave it to me!

[yourfononsarewhack]

[It's wartime. That means serious business. He's seen firsthand the pain that these drafts could bring, and he practically died in battle with a Cultist once in the past. So he's intent on doing what he can to prevent any other tragedies.

He knows very well that the people living with him have suffered more than enough.

Jade gives her a light smirk.]

I knew that I could trust you, Anise. Now try to finish your preparations as fast as you can. Speak with Tear or I before you leave to make sure that you have everything. [He's said his peace, and they have limited time. It's time for him to move on.]

[spellfeather]

No, it's not all that great. [She'd add onto that sentence, but it would put her into quite a somber mood.] Though, would it be sad to say that I'm actually used to this sort of thing?

[fashionably_strong]

(ooc: I think they did introduce themselves. If I'm mistaken, we can handwave them knowing that much. And then Seventeen can find out whose daughter Bulla is during the battle thread )



Hopefully we'll be able to deal with the problem pretty quickly in any case.

[Bulla looks thoughtful.]

I think it must be a real emergency if we got woken up with such little notice, though. I haven't been drafted before, but the people who were drafted for the last one got like...two days notice as opposed to twenty minutes.

[fashionably_strong]

[Bulla frowns and looks down, thinking on that for a moment.]

You might be right, Thor. I hope you're wrong and that they realized the Third Party were moving in before anyone was hurt, but...

[Well, if they were under siege and had been attacked by surprise, it does explain having to call upon people at two in the morning with twenty minutes' notice.]

[Teleporters]

[stopmjolnirtime]

And I shall greatly look forward to enjoying it upon my safe return.

[Action, Graces House to the teleporters]

[musubi]

Heh... Thank goodness I don't have to deal with that.

[It's a failed attempt to lighten the mood.]

[House 22]

[yourhatred]

Then we should be going.

[He's already cleaning up so he can take care of last minute arrangements.]

[Action]

[spohkh]

[Spock grabbed Jim by the arm...]

Do not leave.

[No, no... anything but this. Send him instead. Why was this happening? The Vulcan's mind was buzzing with panic and worry. He couldn't lose Jim.]

Re: [Action]

[universal_charm]

_{[ Kirk looked at him and smiled a bit sadly. He twisted his wrist and twined their fingers, squeezing. ]}

It's okay. Besides, if I don't go of my own free will, they'll just drag me out instead.

Re: [Action]

[spohkh]

[Spock practically bared his teeth.]

Then I will fight them off.
['I am in control of my emotions, I am in control of my emotions.' Spock had to remind himself over and over that he would not lose it here.]

Do not leave me behind... please.
