"Well, that was messy." McTavish watched the screen as the Japanese ships dealt the final blows to the NSRA fleet. It had been a chaotic battle, in which he had struggled to determine the alliagances of most of the smaller forces.
"Yessir" 'Roach' McShoutout nodded solemnly. "Could have been worse if we'd been involved though." He said, guesturing in the general direction of the watching Papal ships. "Nobody would have known what to do if that happened"
"Well we weren't, so It doesn't matter. How are things going back home?" McTavish shifted his attention back to the general situation now that the madness before him had come to an end.
"Reports indicate all good Sir, the Japanese are vacating the Islands without a fuss"
"Good. Nice to know the fleets back home aren't getting shot at either."
"Seemed Pretty clear-cut to me sir." McShoutout shrugged "If they were going to protest the Islands their fleet wouldn't be all the way out here, would it?"
McTavish nodded. Soon he supposed the Japanese would turn for home, at which point the Predator would break off from it's task of shadowing them and return to the Madagascar area, to examine what he was certain would be an almost as chaotic scene on land as the one here had been at sea. Not that he minded, since he doubted this new situation would be seeing all-out combat, so he could afford to take it easy there.

With the Pacific situation settled, The UKNZ now turns its attention to maintaining the current state of peace and stability in the region. With this in mind, we offer defensive pacts to both Japan and Indonesia.
