Welcome to the CERES! You are now under arrest!
Did you think the glitches were over? Boy, were you wrong! Through the last remnants of the digital kerfluffle, the latest batch of recovered code has manifested in CERES' computer systems as the guilty parties. Yes, that's right, all incoming arrivals are now placed on the wanted list, accused of having committed the heinous crime of creating and releasing the gorg0n virus all over Cerealia. These vicious twelve have been working together all along and conspiring against CERES, and it's now up to everyone to figure out if the new arrivals are truly guilty or if they are as innocent and confused as they claim.
In the meantime, CERES has dispatched assassination droids to stop the accused and bring them to justice via disembowelment. So while CERES rushes to stop the droids from committing murder, characters are perfectly welcome to a.) soil themselves b.) fight off the droids c.) run while soiling themselves or d.) cry a lot. e.) ask for assistance!
"ASSASSINATION MODE: ONLINE
OBJECTIVE: ELIMINATE THE ACCUSED
TIMEFRAME: 24:00 HOURS
JUDICIAL UNIT-00345 DISPATCHED"

//SCENARIOS.EXE
PHASE I [ 00 01 ]
It's a minute passed midnight, and the newest sets of recovered code are being spat out of ViViD and into Cerealia. Before the joyful reunions begin, an announcement starts blaring through everyone's computer screen, TV sets, devices, billboard screens, and so on. The image flashes with twelve names and twelve pictures along with a list of crimes each person has committed. They continue to flash again and again throughout the colony, alerting everyone of these heinous criminals. It's up to anyone if they want to engage them or stay far, far away from these perverts and miscreants.
As the arrivals begin to explore, they will see themselves plastered on just about every screen imaginable.
PHASE II [ 200 ]
It's still dark outside, hardly anyone out and about. It's the perfect time for an assassination attempt because that's when the information is received and processed by Cerealia's judicial system, but this isn't a job for any ordinary donut-eating cop. No, this is far greater than that. They bring out the big guns.
Twelve assassination droids, clad in armor and carrying katana, are immediately dispatched and sent to take out each of the accused at any cost. Characters are welcome to do any of the above choices while veterans to Cerealia can assist the arrivals, assist the droids, or just sit back and watch others suffer. It's completely up to you. They can also run into the droids on their search and try to interact with them.
PHASE III [ 700 ]
Your friendly CEO has finally gotten his ass out of bed, but by then, who knows how many people are left alive? After hearing of the kerfluffle, he decides to issue a cease and desist on the assassination droids, and instead, has his investigation units step in to confirm that the new arrivals are not guilty of any of the crimes and charges listed under their name. They will be pulled aside for painful, painful questioning before being released to explore as they wish.
To make up for all the damages and trauma incurred from the near-death attempts, Julius will also be giving the new arrivals a settlement of 20,000 credits each, so go out and party.
PHASE IV [ 1200 ]
By noon, the incident has been cleared up with little to no blood spilled (hopefully). New arrivals are welcome to explore and enjoy their new living arrangements or possibly lie in bed and just cry some more. Either way, welcome to the magic that is Cerealia. The CEO will announce that the last of the virus has been officially cleaned up and taken care of, and he'll be issuing a video with a public apology for all.
BONUS [ whyo'clock ]
Among the police droids dispatched, there will be a rehabilitative droid in a dinosaur suit, looking to cure the criminals of their improper behavior and their moral indiscretions through the power of LOVE and HUGS. It was developed after the researchers in CERES did extensive research on other worlds and found that this mystical creature was capable of creating worldwide joy and cheer. It will be chasing those who are on the Wanted List exclusively, but it will not stop at just them. Your character will be accosted and hugged whether they like it or not.

no subject
[there are totally conditions to this promise, so she's staring at his back with her arms folded. she knows he probably won't and that he's just trying to get rid of her faster... she's not his problem and she isn't wanted.
she gets that, so elle knows she probably also shouldn't drag it out, but she still thinks it's better to be safe than sorry. and maybe she doesn't really want to admit that she's tired enough to actually want that sort of treatment.]
no subject
[ He's not moving from his spot, still waiting. He's like three times the girl's height, so what's she afraid of? He's always been pretty good with physical stuff, so he wouldn't trip over his feet or let her get hurt.
And he's sacrificing himself to help her. The brat could be a little more grateful to him. He doesn't have to carry her or care about her well-being or any of that. He just doesn't want it to be on his hands if something does happen to her. If he makes sure she gets somewhere safe tonight, he'll actually be able to sleep more soundly. ]
no subject
[it's not that she doesn't appreciate the help, it's really just that she can't help but handle things with a sense of self-preservation. she's been in a lot of dangerous situations before, she was taught pretty much from the get-go not to trust people who encourage her to go with them without good reason....
and, well, she's still a scared eight year old in a strange world, having just been pulled away from an important, life-altering decision. she's bratty for sure as a result of being spoiled rotten before things got crazy, and it's not easy to turn that off.
she'll show it at some point, but she's not the best at this. for now? she complies with his request, latching on tightly enough to indicate that she's a lot more scared than she's letting on. sure, she puts on a brave face, but elle's not as fearless as she's acting.]
no subject
[ Talk about whiny. What a brat. Either way, he's a man of his word -most of the time. He keeps her hoisted up on his back and carefully runs with her towards the apartment complex. Though the weight does start to get a little cumbersome after a while, he continues to hold onto her and run with all his strength.
Hopefully, this kid will find some way to adapt here or maybe even find someone she knows. He'd feel much better knowing she had someone around. It's not easy, and at least, she can hold onto her memories like most of the people here. He hasn't met anyone yet who's affected by crystals outside of him and King come to think of it ...
Ah well. First thing's first. He's getting her to her new place and get her settled in. ]
