Previous ChapterA day or so after the meeting, Celestia and Luna had organized a Emergency press conference, which they decided they would use to also broadcast the Evacuation orders. As the last of the news reporters and journalists, which ranged from Ponies, Griffons and Canines, as well as other species, took their seats, Celestia, Luna and Cadance stepped out onto the stage.
Celestia's hair has been pulled back into a bun, which is still waving in the air, sparkling in the sunlight. She steps out on the center of the stage, taking position behind a podium and placing her hands on its sides. The crowd hushes down, waiting for Celestia to speak.
"I am going to cut straight to the chase here and make this clear. The entirety of the Griffon and Prench border, and zones beyond it are being declared a unsafe area for travel, work, and habitation. The reason for this may seem far fetched , but it is true. " The crowd stiffens in anticipation. "Aliens have landed on Equus, and have established numerous bases of operation in these regions now declared unsafe. " Many in the crowd became curious, some looked confused, others just looked unamused.
" We want proof!" One of the Griffons says, standing out of his seat.
The crowd agrees loudly, calling for proof. Celestia waves to Luna, who steps inside the building for a moment, before returning holding dozens of pictures, papers and even one of the Wonderbolts. General Flash Sentry also follows them out, his gold and white uniform covered in medals and ribbons. Celestia begins handing the pictures down to the people in the crowds and the voices begin dying down. Each person who examined the photos, as well as read the papers began to drop there angry and accusing expressions, exchanging them for worried and concerned ones.
" In addition to this news, the following will be happening. The Military is being mass mobilized, and all major cities are to be put under marshal law, including Canterlot. The Military will be doing there best to ensure our safety, but i will not lie to you, there is no Guarantee. " Celestia lowers her voice, before adding "This meeting is over. " and walking off the stage.
