“Got any 3’s”
“Go Fish”
“Ya know what man...this is a load-”
WHOOP WHOOP WHOOP
The two technicians shot up from their seats at the sound of the alarm. Chairs clattered to the ground as they ran over to the central monitoring station which, with the help of a few key presses, brought up a 3d display of a small island in the pacific.
“No fucking way...”
They both looked at the map in shock as a massive Hurricane rapidly took shape.
“Based on these readings it’s at least a category 3 but...with no warning? It doesn’t make sense”
“Jeremy, It’s moving, fast...”
Another series of keystrokes zoomed outwards and displayed the projected trajectory of the storm.
“Based on the speed and direction it’s gonna make landfall in Millenium City at 0800 hours. Put in a call...NOW!”
The submarine was filled with silence that was occasionally disrupted by the rhythmic beeping of empty radars that were being carefully monitored by a small collection of soldiers. One specific soldier, whose name tag read Dawson, was struggling to keep his eyes open.
He let out a long yawn and leaned over to the private to his left.
“Hey, you wanna play rock paper scissors or somethin?”
“Fuck it, why not.”
They turned to face each other and readied their hands. In unison they whispered “Rock, Paper,-”
They were cut off by an off kilter blip on their radar. Both of them turned their attention to the display which showed something coming. At first it was small but, with every go around it got bigger and bigger.
Dawson reached for a phone and placed a call while the other soldiers began to react.
“This is the USS Topeka. Our Systems have picked up a Category 4 Kaiju in the pacific ocean. It appears to be heading for Millenium City. Estimated time until landfall...”
He looked at the central console with horror.
“...6 Hours.”
The call from the government would come swiftly and the City of Heroes would no doubt spring into action. Alarms would begin to blare around the city broadcasting the same message across all major frequencies.
“ATTENTION CITIZENS. CATEGORY 4 KAIJU DETECTED. PLEASE PROCEED TO THE NEAREST EVACUATION POINT IN A CALM AND COLLECTED MANNER.”
By the time it was 6 AM powerful rainfall would begin to beat down on the City of Heroes. One could only hope they were prepared for what was to come.
OOC- Standard Rules Apply. The monster hasn't made landfall yet. Sell the weather effects and such. Gonna keep the pace of the RP pretty high so feel free to join in but I plan on posting for this at least once a week. Feel free to try and take it on under water or do whatever setup you wanna do to try and stop it from reaching land.
