Worlds war 1

This is your anchorman ijffdrie with an urgent update.


At 7 AM this morning an unidentified object the size of the moon was spotted in a geosynchronous orbit above Indonesia. This object appears to have earth-like gravity and massive bodies of water on its surface. While unconfirmed, there is already speculation this world-like object could support life. Or, possibly, is already supporting it.


News update

At 7:12, we started receiving several radio messages from the world in orbit. While untranslatable, it is clear that this world has intelligent life on it. Telescopes in Australia and Japan have confirmed several cities on the surface and, although there have been no signs of aggression so far, the world is preparing for the worst.


News update

More news about the world above has been made public at 7:24 this morning. It appears there have been several satellites spotted around the world in orbit. This confirms the presence of an advanced alien race. Still, no intelligible messages have come from the world above and the tension here on earth rises. 'Who are these people? why have they come for us?'


News update

It has been three hours since the planet first appeared in the sky and still little is known about its people. Are they like us? are they friendly? In the meantime, the US government has been preparing to launch a space shuttle, garnering much concern from the international community

Despite international complaints, the US is not planning to share the honors of first contact

News update

In response to the US, several other political fronts have started preparing a space flight. The south-american union, the european union and japan have pulled their resources together to organize a flight as well, while both Russia and china are preparing their own space flight. Meanwhile, riots have broken out in large parts of Indonesia, the Philippines and Papua new Guinea in response to the alien phenomena.


News update

Disaster strikes the town of Gibboroth, Russia, as a spacecraft of north-korean origin has come plummeting down. It seems that Kim Jong Sun also attempted to reach the world above, but overestimated his country's technological advancement. Where Gibboroth once stood, there is only a crater now. Death tolls are estimated in the hundreds and a cloud of radioactive debree is still present, indicating that North-korea has been attempting to build a nuclear drive.


News update

Russia has finished preparing its space shuttle for launch, and, in a move that stunned the world, has invited several countries in the world to provide a diplomat for the mission

Meanwhile, sattelites have been listening closely to the world above, and it seems they are broadcasting a single message. While the message is untranslated, the tone seems to be friendly

ijffdrie's note: The american comment is not meant to be offensive to anyone except one particular american politician who previously held the job of governor of Alaska. Apologies if your feeling have been hurt

 

Guys, I translated the message:

...if this had been in The Arts, I absolutely would have taken this much more seriously.

 

Hilarious translation. Sadly, its wrong.


Try pronouncing it.

 

ROAR!!! I can't get it. And I'm sick of saying "the cage's new metal."

 

It's just two of the words. one is a person, one is a place.

 

Kanto?

 

Woah this is an interesting read!

 

...

 

News update

As the spacecraft descends unto the strange world, new data becomes available. The world appears to have 0.9 g in gravity, having a dense core despite its small size. The atmosphere is earthlike with slightly more oxygen. About 85% of the world is ocean, the remainder consists of densely forested islands with mountainous terrain.

 

It's Earth, post-icecaps melting.

 

I didn't realize the Earth would lose most of its size if that happened.

 

A lot of its matter was lost in the time stream?

 

Can we just establish the Kanto guess was right?


and the associated name was Red?


All this time travel nonsense is making the ships all wobbly.

News Update

At 6 AM this morning, on a day which will go down in history, man has not only stepped foot on another planet for the first time, but has also had its first contact with intelligent alien lifeforms. As soon as the space vessel Tarin landed, we were greeted by what appeared to be an official reception. Communication has thusfar been impossible, due to language barriers.
Basic facts about the alien species: Thusfar, we have sighted three very distinctly looking kinds of intelligent beings, at least one of which appears to have humanlike distinction between male and female. The kind of which we have sighted both genders appears largely human, with bleaker skin, larger eyes and has facial and bodily features which are far more angular than those found on humans. The two other kinds could be racial variations, two genders of another species, or even both unique species. The first kind appears human-sized, shaped largely like an earth-female, with a white dress-like and green hair-like fleshy protrusion as part of their bodies. Of the other kind we have seen only one creature, who was 7 feet tall and had a body covered in yellow and brown fur. He had claw-like hands and feet and giant ears. Footage of these beings will be made available after clearance from the military.


News Update:

Even as the planet is still reeling from first contact, researchers at Ukaupa observatory have discovered that the world above is not alone. There seem to be several other objects, none more than 15 miles across, in orbit around our world. Due to the shocking arrival of the world above the arrival of these objects has gone unnoticed. The origin and nature of these objects is thusfar unknown, but scientists are already analyzing the first images.

 

gardevoir and pikachu? O.O what are the other planets?!

 

I'm sorry, since when is pikachu 7 feet tall?

 

Raichu? I dunno...

 

There aren't that many pokemon that are easily mistakable for human-like intelligence. Besides, ol' ally is way smarter.

 

i didn't realize he was 7 feet tall...
