TRANSCRIPT OF A LIVE BROADCAST
21st July, 2013
"Greetings and welcome to Shazbotdom news Network's News at 3pm. I am Thomas Vercetti and today we have a special show for you as we are going to bring you live to a special military operation that is being conducted within the Empire by the Shazbotdom Marine Corps' SCS Division. These highly trained troops are the Shazbotdom Empire's most elite division of the Marine Corps. Trained in several secluded facilities that are spread throughout the Empire, they are the group that is called in to perform anything from special protection of a dignitary to helping the police raid buildings and criminal residences. But before we go to that, first we have some local news to go over..."
20 Minutes goes By...
"...thank you for that weather report, Ken. Hold on," he touches his ear like he's listening to something. "Our producer says that the SCS marines are on the move. Lets go live to them in the field."
The camera image changes to the view from the back of a WH-03 Troop Transport Warthog as it drives across town. In the background you can hear the voice of Special Segment Reporter Samantha Cortez. "Currently the SCS Marines are on 94th Street, but we are heading to the residence of someone who is currently wanted by Law Enforcement Agencies within Shaz City. They became wanted due to special circumstances surrounding international happenings," she says as you can see an SCS Marine checking his weapon.
"According to our sources within the Imperial Palace, the circumstanes are that by order of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, all those associated with North Defese were ordered out of the country within a 24 hour time frame. No documentaton was found this morning on one Defesian who came into the country on a 18 month work visa last year leaving the Empire." The camera bounces up and down as they hit a speed bump along the road. "This SCS Marine fireteam is heading to aprehend the man and transport him to a military holding facility until a Tribunal is convenied for him to stand charges of violating the order."
The camera angle adjusts sligthly. "There's the suspects house in the distance. We have, under authorization from the Ministry of the Military, been given authorization to place a small video camera inside the helmet of two of the SCS Marines so we can see what they see.
The vehicle then turns down a street. "I hear now that we are approaching the place of residence and that police have been watching the house from an undisclosed location and they reported that the suspect has arrived home from work just 40 minutes ago." The vehicle then turns again as it's front right wheel bounces up onto the curb and comes to a stop.
"We are now switching to the helmet cameras."
The video changes to that of inside two helmets with the polarized glass in front of it on either side of the television. One SCS Marine is running towards the front door of the house while the other jumps the fence on the side of the house and runs to the back door. Each looks at the team of two that is assembled with them then back to the door. Two feet are seen, one on either side of the TV, as the doors are kicked in. The house is rather large, a three story bicentennial, for a man who makes his salary.
The two camera's turn quickly but the High Def camera's keep up with all the tracking as the barels of the guns are seen, tracing each room that they go through, looking for the suspect. A hand motion is made as each marine moves room to room looking for him. After a while they reach the last door in the house, which leads to the attic. Both helmet cams are pointed towards the same door. Slowly an SCS Marine's hand moves it's way forward on both sides of the television and it grasps the handle of the door and opens it.
The SCS Marines then slowly make their way up the staircase into the attic to find the man standing in the opposing corner of the attic grasping a shotgun in his hands. He fires quickly at the SCS Marines, of whom duck and take flack from the shotgun in the shoulderpads of their armor. One of the SCS Marine's guns trains on the man and you hear three shots as flash comes out the barrel of his weapon. The mans leg flies backwards as he is hit with the tripple shot from the XR-01 "Crimson" BattleRifle and he loses his grip on his shotgun.
The man falls face first to the ground as the other SCS Marines are seen on both sides of the television moving in on the suspect. He tries to reach for the shotgun but the armored foot of an SCS Marine moves forward and kicks the shotgun across the room towards the camera-clad marines.
The video feed on the television then switches back to the camera outside that was in the Warthog. Samantha Cortez was now standing in front of the camera. "What powerful footage of a military excersize."
The video then switches to a split view of Samantha on the left and Tom on the right. "Thank you for that Sam. Is there any word on where he is to be taken before the Tribunal can be conviened?"
"Not as of yet. From what I can understand, he will most likely be held at the detention facility at Fort Wood until the Tribunal"
Sam then disappears off the side as Tom takes up the entire television. "Thank you again for that special segment Sam." Tom then rotates in his chair and camera angles switch to compensate. "Now time for weather. From the weather desk here is..."
