    Atlantean General Behind Laval Attack, Arrested; Elections to Be Held in 2 Weeks

    PANAMA CANAL – In an abrupt turn of events, a rogue Atlantean General was arrested for staging the Laval attack on the Atlantis-Pacifica meetings, and King Morn A’Ganor has agreed to holding an election for Pacifica’s independence two weeks from now.

    With the aid of Adonis, Titana, and Micro-Man, who’s been in hiding during the investigation into the attack, Atlantean and Pacifican forces joined together to arrest Jor Q’Rell, a high-ranking General in the Atlantean military.  Suspicions that Atlantis was behind the attack had been bubbling for some time now, and using his diminutive size, Micro-Man gathered evidence on Q’Rell’s activities.  The General wanted to use the Laval attack to sabotage the meetings and unite both sides under a common cause.  He did not think the Lavals would be able to kill six Atlanteans and two Pacificans with the Atlantic and Pacific Guards protecting the meetings.  When confronted by King Morn and Viceroy Parr’Ell Montae, Q’Rell surprisingly surrendered without a fight.

    At this point, accounts of what transpired become muddled.  Everyone present in the meeting rooms of the Panama Canal all have multiple accounts of what happened with many similarities.  One account suggests that Q’Rell didn’t surrender but fought the King and Viceroy when confronted, and this spilled out into a full-blown battle between Atlantis and Pacifica.  Another account suggests that a battle ensued, and one of Q’Rell’s soldiers detonated a bomb, killing hundreds.  There were more accounts, but they all ended with a white light and with a reset to the moment Q’Rell was confronted.

    According to ATOM Labs, these accounts are all telltale signs of time travel.  “My guess is that someone either traveled back in time to prevent the battle,” said Professor Simone Givens, spacetime scientist at ATOM Labs, “or someone showed them possible futures in order to prevent the battle.  Either way, time travel shenanigans.”

    “And yes, that’s a technical term.”

    Whatever calamity was supposedly averted, Q’Rell and his forces were peacefully arrested and will be charged with several crimes.  The General’s forces will likely receive a variety of punishments, but Q’Rell will certainly receive the death penalty.  Their trials have yet to be set.

    After the arrests, tensions between the two sides eroded.  Atlanteans were just as upset over Q’Rell’s actins as the Pacificans, and King Morn and Viceroy Montae hammered out an agreement to hold an election to grant Pacifica its freedom.  It’s a startling turn for King Morn who was staunchly opposed to Pacifican independence.

    “Whatever he saw must have been worse than giving Pacifica their freedom,” said political observer, Luis Mendoza of the University of Panama.  “I can only speculate what he saw, but it’s not hard to imagine that he saw a civil war tear apart his kingdom.”

    The election will be held in two weeks.

    PANAMA CANAL – Adonis and Titana mediated a meeting between Atlantis and Pacifica today, by request of King Morn, after a rumor emerged that Atlantis staged the Laval attack from last week.

    During a meeting regarding Pacifica’s quest for independence from Atlantis, a small army of Lavals (lava monsters from underneath the ocean floor) attacked the proceedings.  It’s thought they saw an opportunity to eliminate both the Atlantean and Pacifican leaders at the same time, but they were forced to retreat after a fierce battle.  All but two Lavals escaped, however, and these two have been in Atlantean custody since the attack.

    Sometime during an interrogation by a Pacifican offical, that official supposedly caught on to a larger plan behind the attack.  A few days later, suspicion among the Pacificans has grown that Atlantis may’ve staged the attack.  That’s when King Morn called in Adonis and Titana.

    “I understand why King Morn called them in,” said political observer, Luis Mendoza of the Univeristy of Panama.  “On the surface, so to speak, they are third parties, very strong third parties, who will help make sure things don’t get out of hand.  But they also have a long-standing friendship with King Morn, and that can only escalate the situation.”

    “I just hope we don’t have a civil war brewing underwater.  That would have drastic consequences for everyone in the world.”

    Sources inside the meetings reported a noticeable rise in tension when Adonis and Titana arrived.  They are keeping out of the discussions, though, and have only stepped in to break up fights before they had a chance to begin.

    King Morn assured everyone that Atlantis was not behind the attack and that Adonis and Titana “will not pick sides in this matter.”  “We will resolve this, seaperson to seaperson, with our feet firmly planted into the seabed,” he said.

  • Lava Monsters Attack Atlantis-Pacifica Meeting

    PANAMA CANAL – A small army of lava monsters from the Ring of Fire attacked the Atlantis-Pacifica meetings today, killing six Atlanteans and two Pacificans before being defeated by the ocean-dwellers combined military might.

    The lava monsters, known as the Lavals, have long been enemies of ocean-dwellers the world over.  They have been vying for territory above the lava vents, and that territory has largely belonged to Atlantis.  Many Lavals and Atlanteans (and Pacificans) have died over the centuries in multiple wars.  Considering King Morn A’Ganor and Viceroy Parr’Ell Montae were both in the same location, it looks like they were seizing an opportunity.

    The Lavals burst up from the Pacific side of the Panama Canal, breaking through rock and creating a new lava breach.  Their molten bodies evaporated water at a tremendous rate, creating a blinding sheet of bubbles to conceal their movements.  The Pacific Guard was the first to engage the Lavals, but they were caught by surprise.  It didn’t take long for the lava monsters to breach the underwater conference center.

    Once in, the Atlantic Guard joined the battle and fared better, but not much.  The Lavals melted everything in their sight, looking for the world leaders.  The Pacific and Atlantic Guards battled for several minutes with the Lavals as King Morn and Viceroy Montae were moved to a safe location.  King Morn’s Special Guard, thankfully, was prepared for just such an occasion.

    The Special Guard always carry around a super-cooling chemical mixture in bullet and grenade forms on their belts as they must combat any given situation.  They were able to end the battle by freezing most of the Lavals in the conference center.  Realizing the tide had turned, the small remaining Lavals fled back underground.  Six Atlanteans and two Pacificans died in the battle with several dozen more injured.  King Morn and Viceroy Montae were uninjured.

    The meetings were called off indefinitely so each side could mourn their fallen comrades.
