-Beep Beep Beep-
All screens with holonet news access would suddenly change to a droid standing in front of a camera. “With a heavy heart, I must announce that an attack has been made on our dear leader. A lone assailant breached the government grounds and attacked the president, during a morning inspection.” The droid spoke with a tone that almost sounded sad. “A warrant for the assailants arrest has been issued, a bounty is also in talks.” He continued to speak. Behind the droid, a door opened and out walked the president, clearly alive. The camera and the droid both look into the direction of the door. “I can’t believe my eyes, our dear president is still alive. Sir, How did you survive the ordeal?” The news droid asked of the president. “Well, it is simple. I was never destroyed. Rumors of my destruction are greatly exaggerated. But before I go into detail, I want to make it known, that Salem Ames; a lethan twi’lek, is wanted for attempted murder and we are considering the banning of lightsabers on the planet. Though the most important thing is the warrant and bounty for Salem.” He explained, before leaving once more. “Well you heard it here first! The leader survived and there is a warrant for the arrest of Salem Ames the lethan Twi’lek. Be safe people, and good night.” Good afternoon people of Talus, we were there for the conference held by X3-QTR as he gave his opening statement; *a recording of the mentioned statement cuts in* "Hello those in attendance, both physically and those who are watching the live recording and the later recorded message. "With the recent incident, I would like to first state that though I am a droid, I do sympathize with those who have lost their lives. The incident was a tragedy, and we are putting all our efforts into rebuilding and preventing something like this from ever happening again in the future. I understand that many are weary of my kind at the moment, and I can assure you that there is nothing to fear. The signal's affects on us was ended by the brave souls who destroyed the device producing it. "That said, your medical facility has had its upper floors rebuilt and is in the process of being restocked. These floors will remain closed to the public but your local medical facility shouldn't want for anything in the future. And with progress made on other factories, and the income it is generating for the planet, I would like to announce that we are reducing taxes by five percent over the next three years. Meaning that the working being, will keep more of their income. "I will take questions now." *the recording stopped, reporter’s voice continuing* After several rounds of questions, the speakers lifted up and flew at X3-QTR but they seemed to be deflected at the last second and they flew apart, hitting the walls. X-Three stuck around a little longer for more questions before heading back behind the gate, a small squad of droids stepping out to prevent any riots that may raise from the attack. At this time, there was also a disturbance between a few people in the crowd in reaction to the speakers and a ...Ssi ruu? Who had been trying to start a riot among the people. It seemed there were several working against him. We picked up that those involved had been at the scene of the rogue signal’s destruction and seemed to disagree on its source. After the recent issues with droid kind, the citizens are left shaken and distrustful of the droids in power. Claims that the signal was an inside job are one of many conspiracy theories being passed around. Due to the unrest, X-Three has decided to hold a press conference of sorts to give what assurance he can that he was just as much a victim of the strange signal as the others. The date for the conference will be [Friday the 8th at 5 pm SLT] in front of The Boneyard. Presumably in time for the Medical building's repairs to be complete should they keep to their punctual nature. As seen below, they've even made it top priority to get our medical building's structure back up, stable and restocked. Luckily, the main floor wasn't affected, just storage, office and conference floors. So if you've been avoiding the building for any reason, both droid and organic alike are on staff ready to help out.
