SEC #3
There was a bit of time , a good 10 minutes, Ellen, but this time, had Dallas news on a Vidscreen. while Lyri was scanning teh Fuji news links waiting to see something that was 'new".
Beth watched botht eht eVid board and the screens, as she talked , half focused on what she was saying,..EUP is independant..which means they looks for stuff to make everyone happy, whether its attackign a hero of the Fleet, or shopping Vids of Lady V naked on a beach...The APF netwroks, feed the Whole of the Balck, though i will bet heavy creds there isn't much of thier feeds reaching Earth... The ESN news ship...
she looked at Izzy then back to the screens,..is supposed to be on our side....and by that..I mean doing what the Admiral wanted..pure footage...upfront voice overs and narratives ... Let's say that Kase guy would have been brought up on charges for helping Besserman escape the hearing he was supposed to have had?..Anyone beating up on him for
his war records, would have been reaching, unless you count he resigning and goign EVOL?...That would have made things very rough for the LT and he would have had to been sent to Aqra, or Astra... heck..maybe even the colonies..all because some one with a mic would have wanted to make a name for themselves.
Webdy has been out here a long time?.,.... why didn't she go after Dixie..there was a story? and who knows how many lives that might have saved.. he waves her hand,..there are a hellava lot of stories to be told on this boat, but reporters seem to like to see if they can hang folks out to dry..maybe get the URA..Universal Reporting Award..no human has even come close.. she was about to say something else when the earth news broke in..
The live Vid showed civies with weapons running for cover one knocked over a Little Girl.. the Little Girl was on the road pointing up at an Apartment..Earth SEC troopers were pushing the armed civies out of the way.. one of them , a rather fat man was sitting behind a car holding his legs and crying.
A young male reporter came up,..this is Andy Jinns..of ESN news!... following a report , not long ago, Earth SEC has sent troopers to this building in Dallas Texas... an Anti-War protest was being held by armed civis as they chant..'bring them home'.. and 'home first'... this excitement was caused when one of the civies raised thier weapon and a Black uniformed man shot him.. the protesters broke and ran.. as the Earth Sec troops arrived...
A Earth SEC Captain stood Next to the Reporter and said,..Thanks to the Tip from an unknown source , we have the EDT cell trapped in the apartment Building 7th floor... we do have a Name of of a person who was willing to sign off on the report, her name is Kendall Maxie... a sister of Wendy Maxie... however.. reports have come through, that the brave woman is either dead, or in the hands of EDT, because of her involement with the raid...
shots where being Fired as an Earth SEC trooper got the little gril to cover, several of the protesters were dead in the streets, other where running , some of them throwing away thier weapons.
...................
Lyri says..'Fuji!'
there were Fire techs arriving on scene in the uppers, a Reporter sitting behind a desk said,..Good after Noon.. this is a breaking story here on Fuji.. the house you see in the back round is the Home of Mr and Mrs, John Maxie...of Maxie Containers, makers of shipping containers used around The Black.. reports say
Balck Uniformed men entered the home jsut a few minutes ago, killing the security guards... a Tip was sent to Fuji SEC and the attackers are now under siege.
a Gresh's face appeared,..Yes..I do not have much time to talk, but i will give you this statement.... it appears, that SEC recieved a Tip of an EDT cell near the Docks in the Lowers... That Cell was taken with most of the terrorists killed....According to one of the surving members, the Maxie Family had dealing with the EDT, and sold out the Cells they knew about , here on Fuji... we can only assume, this attack on the house is payment for them turning away from the EDT.... This is a hard cold lesson..you can join the EDT, but you may never leave.... Now.. there is another situation we have involing a friend of the Maxie Family?.. I believe he is the mate..or will be the mate of Ms Wendy Maxie?.. there have been shots fired at his home in the lowers... we can only assume there is more attacks because of the outing of the EDT..
Gresh looked at the Camera,..this is a sad day on Fuji , but...EDT is nothing to mess with, from Civis...the upside, there will be at least... 3 less cells on the station..
Lyri laughed ..good old gresh..huh?... can't bneat that old Sanri for stuff like this!
..the second wave is coming, but it should take a while...nothing like dealing out cards and letting the game play on... Beth giggled happily.
