12:45, House of the Republica. Presidential Office.
President James Miles is currently shuffling throughout papers reviewing which would be helpful to the country and which wouldn't.
"no, no, no, no, no, mmmmm maybe-" A knock is heard sounding from the door the office. "Come in", President Miles says. A board but smart looking man enters the room, "ah Director Louis of the Weather Emergency and Relief Department" the president exclaims " what do I owe to this visit?"
"Mister president my team and I have found something that you may want to look at", The Director says as he brings out a small tablet. "We have found something very unusual in the ocean under us, it seems that a large storm big enough to cover the entire country will make landfall by tomorrow at 10AM!"
The president, not being a stupid fool, took those words very seriously.
"Then we must prepare the civilians for the oncoming storm as we have no idea what or how long this is going to last", the president stated calmly but with a sense of urgency. "That's not all sir" the director confessed, "the storm also seems to be putting out some type of weird signal that none of our machines can process or produce". The Director stated with a sense of confusion and concern.
"Hmmmmmm, we can look into that later. Right now we need to get the people ready for the oncoming storm". "Yes sir, right away" And with that the Director left the Presidential Office. The President, still staring at the tablet, wondered 'just, what is the storm? and what will it do?'
[The Next day]
President Miles still just waking up noticed the time, 9:25
"...SHIT!" Miles shouted, throwing on his suit and running towards the Presidential Office. As President Miles burst through the doors he saw 3 directors of different departments. "Sorry for the scare gentlemen, I overslept tonight." He said while walking and taking his seat. "Director, Louis, Director Xavier, and Director Avalon. How may I serve your departments today?"
"If you haven't noticed the storm I mentioned yesterday has now covered 80% of the country, we have lost contact with those who are inside the storm" Director Louis explains. "It has also come to our attention that when the storm passes over people will need immediate medical attention" says Director Avalon, Director of the Department of Health and Safety. "And we may have to reopen or build new powerplants incase of them being moderately to heavily damaged" Director Xavier exclaims, Director of the Department of Energy.
The Power then goes out
"...I think the storm, covered the country now... Yeah we'll need to build new powerplants, and electrical infrastructure.". President Miles said as he turned on his flashlight.
[Three Hours Later]
the backup generators in the building finally started working turning on the lights and some other appliances in the House of the Republica.
"Well it seems the storm passed, see if we can contact any of our allies for rebuilding efforts and supplies" James said to one of the staff in the house. "Lets head outside shall we, it would be useful to see the damage that was done from the storm. Would it not? He said to the directors with them agreeing to head outside.
[Outside]
"huh... There doesn't seem to be that much damage when it comes to buildings, aside from the older ones that have a few walls and roofs caved in". "Yes it seems like that Mr. President but from what I can see the entire power grid is down and we may need to ramp up the repair of the power plants and the grid". "MR.PRESIDENT, WE HAVE AN EMERGENCY" yells a house attendant running outside. "Woah, woah, woah calm down, then tell me the news" the Miles replies.
After the attendant catches their breath they then explain the situation, "Mr. President we are not able to contact any of our allies in North America or Europe. But more importantly we have lost contact with all our satellite's orbiting the planet!". The attendant said in a tone as if they were to go to war against America. "I'm sorry, WHAT, HOW, a storm cant be so powerful that out satellite's get destroyed!". The President then pinched the bridge of his nose knowing the answer to the question and but still wondering what happened.
Sigh "Anyways get the space program to launch satellite's orbit, we need to get communication systems up and running again. We do not kno- do you guys see that?" the president inquired. "See what?" the directors and the attendant ask. "Those flying...creatures, plus the equator seems to be on a slight angle" the President explains. "Hold on, I think I can see the creatures, they look like something out of a fantasy world. Oh it looks like its leaving the country now..." Director Louis explains as the 2 flying beast start to head away from the country.
"Anyways, I want the Space Program launching satellites, the Energy Department repairing the power grid, and the Weather Relief and Health and Safety Departments to give aid to anyone effected by the storm. Understood?". "Yes/right away/on it Mr. President!" and with that all 3 directors left the House of Republica to deal with the ongoing national crisis.
"What were those things, and were they real?" the president inquires, "if they are indeed real then we may have been transported somewhere off planet..."
