DELHI, INDOCHINA, Dragon Empire:
It has been an embarrassing day for Wahaha Food and Beverage company today as the main bottling plant in IndoChina exploded. Located outside the city of Delhi, this large bottling plant is responsible for 93% of all Indo-Cola products sold in IndoChina and 13% of all Indo-Cola products sold elsewhere in the Dragon Empire. This controversial cola product, carbonated with carbon monoxide instead of carbon dioxide, proved its inviability when the carbon monoxide exploded, lit by a careless worker's oversight. That worker, and the 4 other workers sitting alongside him, were instantly incinerated as the factory suffered a deliberating explosion. The initial blast set fire to flammable elements of the factory, which then breached the other carbon monoxide containers and turned the entire factory into a blazing inferno.


Thankfully, emergency forces recognised their incapability to fight this large fire and called in the state and national guards. These forces, totalling 5,831 fire-fighters and volunteer airmen, put out the fire 16 hours later, at 4:00AM. Apart from the 4 fatalities, no one else was killed or injured. The entire IndoChina region is expected to be without Indo-Cola for about 5 weeks.

Chairman Biao is given the order by the Council to investigate the explosion and determine the cause in order to improve Empire wide fire and production standards.

Chairman Biao replies: "Its really simple, actually. Bottling carbon monoxide is cool because it gets people high, but its really flammable."

"We'll begin legislation to ban smoking in such facilities then as this is really absurd. A few people can't control themselves costing this much in damage and injuries... just.. so wrong."
