The East PacificBoard

Akachi responded. "Y-yes ma'am! Will do!" Soon after responding, she begins to click some buttons, which makes a small, holographic dial pad to appear. She clicks on the numbers, in an attempt to contact the leader. After doing so, she presses a button, which puts the communication on dial with the leader. But instead of the number leading them to Kagamiri, it is instead directed to a reception bot. "We're sorry. The person you are trying to contact is not available."

"Wh-what??" Akachi would say. She looked back to the commander, who had a stern look on her face. "Now what?"

"Isn’t it obvious?" the commander said. "This alliance is far too important to be put on hold. Head over to the landing platform and take one of the vehicles with you. Deliver the news to Kagamiri in person."

Akachi responded. "Yes ma'am!" In which she immediately gets off her seat and walks into the elevator right behind her chair. She presses one of the buttons on the elevator as the doors begin to close. Immediately, the elevator zips down to the requested floor. Upon arrival, the doors to the elevator open and Akachi heads outside. She makes it to the landing platform, which was loaded with several aerial craft. She heads over to one of the vehicles, gets on one of them, but before she could fly it, one of the guards stopped her. "Hey. Where do you think you're taking that vehicle?" the guard responded. Akachi spoke. "It’s urgent news to the leader! I have to give it to her personally!" She then closes the hatch on the vehicle and boots it up. The vehicle's engine revvvs up and before long, Akachi flew out of the landing platform.

She began to fly the aircraft over one of the villages of the nation, the foxgirls looking like tiny ants. She started to get the city of Vulphina into view, and began to make her way over there. But suddenly, a missile than seemingly arrived out of nowhere smashed into one of the wings of the vehicle, causing it to quickly lose height. "What the?! What in the world is going on?!" Akachi screamed.

The aircraft immediately crashes into the grass plains, the vehicle itself in bad shape. Akachi had somehow survived, abeit somewhat dazed. She starts to come to her senses, noticing the smell of smoke. She tries to open the cockpit, but it was stuck. She began to panic. "No. No! No, no, no! This can't be!" She yelped. Suddenly, the comms on the vehicle booted up on its own, and a familiar voice started to speak.

It was Kagamiri. "I'm sure you're wondering where, why or how that missile came to smash into your vehicle. I personally ordered it to be launched straight at you." the leader said. Akachi responded. "Wh... what?! What do you mean?! Kagamiri?!" The leader responded with a cold tone of voice. "I know about the so-called "alliance" that you had discussed with the nation of Awqnia. I heard it personally through my own comms network. I sent that missile at you for two reasons. One, I do not wish for alliance with that degenerate nation, filled with pathetic humans and impure foxgirls."

"... And what's two?" Akachi said. Kagamiri responded. "Two is because I can’t any witnesses who know about the proposed alliance." Akachi, realizing the true nature of Kagamiri, responded with a tone of fury in her voice. "Well, I'm still alive! And I'm going to find a way to make it out of this!" Kagamiri chucked quietly, a cold tone to her laugh. "I'm afraid such is not the case. The vehicle you are in, just like any other government-owned vehicle, has been secretly rigged with a self-destructing device, and in your case, your vehicle should blow up in about... Five... Four... Three..."

"W-what?! No! Please!" Akachi began to bang her fists on the cockpit as Kagamiri continued counting down. "Someone help me!!" she would say. Kagamiri continued the countdown. "... Two... One... Aaaaan-"
