2038
The news soon reached the Original hiding place in the vesuvio thanks to the GI's. (Guardie Imperiali, Imperial Guards) The secret police service which worked like a mix between fbi, cia, and what-not. And obviously, it was something which did not exist in neo-italy.
The clone who gave the news trembled in fear and run away screaming when the Original raised his hand, it was hardcoded in their genes after all, they all feared him, like rats fear the snakes. The only problem being that the snake was also their leader, their father, and they also loved him. Miracles of genetics, aren't they?
So, when the Original was left to cool down the news, he flipped a switch and started speaking to the scientists in charge of the production of the ships...
"so...were are our survey ships?"
"sir...they are still bein..."
"nono, i'm asking, were are they now? are they in the docks? ready to fly in space?"
"sir we are still doin..."
"now then, let me be clear as possible. You will have them done fast. Or i will make sure to personally have you moved to the Practical Research section, the one were the mortality rate is unluckily of 98%"
"b..b..."
"NO BUTS. NOW GET TO WORK YOU DIMWIT!"
"yes sir!" and the intercom buzzes off.
The rest of Neo-italy population receives the news without showing whatsoever response. Since they are waiting for the original to show one, so they can have the same. Otherwise they have their everyday life in front of them...why should they care?
...there is the new tv program though "Scientifical evaluation of cellular beings" so they are hyped for it to begin...
This is no Aurora event and has no influence on the actual game just Rping within Neo-italy
