[ It probably doesn't come as a surprise to many that the city is still up in arms about the attack from two weeks ago. Reports constantly flood the news, alongside press conferences. The fact that many people are having to open their eyes to the fact that Domino is just one part of a much, much bigger world has caused a lot of uproar. One of the many groups caught in that uproar has been OOPARTS.

Onni's firey red hair - tapered into acceptability and wearing a black business suit, sits at a press desk surrounded by microphones. His lips are pursed tightly - anyone can see that he's not happy.

It seems like the conference has been going a while...

...Finally, with regards to the events of two weeks ago at the Duel Festival and OOPARTS' culpability. The attack during the event conducted in the city by Leo Corporation and Kaibacorp featured private security employed by the two companies overseeing the event and making sure no tampering or sabotage occured within the event grounds, with OOPARTS playing a 'reserve' role in case of an attack. OOPARTS' own officers suspected there was a possibility for an attack, due to the visibility of the Duel Festival matching that of the infamous World Riding Grand Prix years prior.

Upon confirmation that an attack was underway, OOPARTS requested permission to send officers equipped to handle supernatural threats into the event zone, but were denied due to the reports of the attackers being human, not supernatural in nature. After a lengthy internal review of the events that occurred over the past two weeks, OOPARTS confirms that the attackers were human. Though supernatural powers of any individuals involved remains unconfirmed at this time, we see no reason, at this juncture, to deny Mr. Akaba Reiji's claim of extra-dimensional terrorism on the city. 

In addition, OOPARTS was rapidly mobilized shortly after the appearance of the massive unknown mechanical anomaly, later identified by the Industrial Illusions' database as 'Chaos Ancient Gear Giant'. OOPARTS officers worked quickly to assist emergency responders in evacuating districts outside of the event zone that suffered massive damage in the wake of the anomaly's attack, as well as coordinating efforts to neutralize the anomaly and prevent further damage to the city from inside the event grounds.

[There's a flurry of camera flashes and reporters shouting over each other as Onni remains stoic in the face of the cameras. A question over 'what will you do now?' manages to be heard over the din.]

In the coming weeks, OOPARTS will be studying the aftermath of the attack to see if there are any ways we can help prevent something of this catastrophic nature in the future. In addition, we will be reaching out to work with related parties to find the source of these attacks and bring them to justice. OOPARTS was founded on the idea of protecting ourselves from the supernatural and extra-dimensional, and is committed, above all else, to protecting Domino City, a notable landing ground from supernatural and extra-dimensional threats.

[Onni stands up to leave as the reporters try to follow, he puts a hand up as he's walking away.]

This conference is over! No further questions at this time!

That could have been infinitely worse than it was, I suppose.

You're insanely proud. We know, dear 'cuz, we know.

If you weren't married to your wife(s), you'd be literally married to work.

You do realize how good I and the people I employ are at scrubbing details and vanishing people, right, honey?

If I want people to ignore you, well. I'll leave the rest to your imagination.
