Our urban jungle has a sensational new arrival: a shiny, beautiful aerozep! Until recently the property of the NUS Army, the powerful machine now lies securely in the hands of Dogtown’s residents.
This zep's a freight model; it won’t do you much good in combat, and the cargo in its hold also turned out to be pretty disappointing. That is, unless you really, really like chairs. Our sources say there were over 400 folding chairs on board! So why did the fine men and women of BARGHEST take it upon themselves to intercept the craft? The answer lies under the hood! The aerozep uses a unique atomic fission engine and concealed turbines to vector thrust. I asked a local expert what that means for us in practice.
”A fission engine’s nothin’ but pros,” said Bert Zelinsky, the lead techie tasked with putting the machine to good use. “Now, you could go and turn it into a bomb and blow everything to fuckin’ smithereens. But we wanna use it to power Dogtown. I mean shit, we’re gonna have power up to, like, here,” - said Bert, gesturing high above his head. When I asked if it was safe, he just gave me a strange look.
So, dear readers, don’t be surprised if one day you see two suns rising over Dogtown.
