Well I guess folks should be scared and stuff, but...
The person who should be most scared, is the man who is pulling Tragedies strings and making her act as though she's on some righteous crusade to wipe mankind of the face of the Earth.
Why?
Because when she finds out that she's been used --for the second time--
Boy... I wouldn't want to be in his shoes.

The more things change, the more they stay the same. One step up and two steps back.
Mankind reached far and high, each time he streched out his hand he found there were that many more wonders there for the taking. Mankind indulged his appetites beyond reason as he rendered the natural checks upon them moot, and his tribes were fruitful and multiplied.
The tribes of humanity grew and grew, only to keep growing as the advantages of such great numbers made themselves evident. As Tribes grew stronger they made war upon themselves, as is natural. As the Pack and Herd challange one another over territory, so to do Tribes raise arms for land and resources, made all the bloodier by Man's genius.
Thus did the Tribes of man swell in numbers and in power, some at the expense of others, but always ever growing.. untill they grew too much.
Mankind, for all his great wonders of steel and plastic, is but flesh and bone himself. Mankind could create a computer that could track every object which passes through the heavens, but his own brain could no longer keep track of his tribe-mates, they were so many...
And so it all began to un-ravel. Mankind, who by his nature will sacrifice all for his own tribe and deny all for his rival tribe, grow more and more selfish as individuals retreated from the Tribe. They had become each a Tribe of One. Fewer babies were born, more died of the neglect of their brothers, still more died at the hands of the smaller Tribes who still knew a Tribe's meaning. All the while there were those who yearned for a simpler time, a Better time, a better Place, a place where nature ruled benevolently and all things lived in harmony with each other.
...they too died, without ever realizing such a place never existed.

It never existed. In reality Nature dosn't promote balance by getting the birds and bees and flowers and trees etc.. to play nice and live in blissfull harmony.. she gets it done by being a stone-cold bitch. A wolf culls the sickly from the herd only because the healthy are too strong to take down. When a stallion mounts a mare made insane by her heat is it really an expression of life-affirming passion or more analogous to a roofied-up date-rape? The same pride of lion that patiently endures the playfull rambunctiousnes of his own cubs and makes you go 'Awwww' on nature-shows brutally killed the cubs of his rival when he took-over the pride.
In the final words of Tragedy's speech one might say that she is becomming that which she claims to fight against. The truth is, she always was.

That's what I was thinking.
In all honesty, I still think my favorite metaphor for nature is a Mother Earth with post-partum depression. It just, explains so much.
That or the kid in school with lice. Sure, everyone feels sorry for her and she gets her own shampoo and all. But not even Saturn will use her brush, and she's the system's tramp.

*Crackling static, pirated signal, a voice with just a dash of Aussie accent speaks up* Ummm, ma'am. Not to rain on your rage parade or anything. But speaking as a member of the Platypie species, as a card carrying voter in the Monotreme Union, and of course, vice president of the SMMA (the Surviving Marsupial and Monotreme Alliance)... I'd just like to say that we still remember what you and your placental brethern pulled.
Remember Pangea?
I mean, for gods' sake woman, it happened at least twice. All I'm saying is that we don't have the best track record when it comes to maintaining paradise ourselves. No need to cast stones.
In closing, have yourself a fine g'day and... screw you. *end transmission*
*Another crackle and fizz* He.. hello? Yes, this is the green slime. Ignore those silly egg layers. You go right on and do what your doing. Psh, Mass Extinction is just nature's way of saying, "shoulda worn cleaner underwear." Also, after the humans are gone and you all kill one another as you seem so very prone to do, can we have your stuff?
... again? *crackle, static, sssssSssssss*
_____________
*ahem* Looking like a really interesting read so far. ^,^

So, another one who wants to kill of mankind, another one who dreams about the World Domination? What makes it so facinating to rule over others?
Well, you wont find it out. Did you looked outside? They have guns out there, a lot of guns, pointed at you.
You should have tried it like Gandi and Martin Luthor King did, they changed things with peace. You will be soon forgotten.
Do you really thing you guys will make it better then we did? No, I dont think so.
Besides that, there are always people like me, who are there toi stop people like you.
Why, yes......my name is Bond, James Bond!

They had literally CRUCIFIED her before.
Conflict often is needed to cause a change of this magnitude Humanity have kept the anthros in submission for so long and its time for the order to change.
What would you want to have her be a Zeon Daikun? Only to be offed by a madman who'd pervert her ideals.
Humans seem to willingly ignore the lessons of the past and it is long overdue for a reminder of what happens to when you enforce oppression.
Just be glad she doesn't have 5th Luna or Axis.

Nervous....no. As history has stated many times before, though life has always lived with fear of either losing their dominance over all else or anger at being dominated by a foreign race, and let their appetite for new wonders with which to either prevent that loss of dominance or overthrow those who dominate, there always seems to be some core part of basic humanoid psyche that stops us from allowing the balance of nature to be irreversibly upset.
This does promise to get ugly, but will it result in outright extinction? I'd like to remain optimistic and think not.

The human-half of her agrees with the wolf-half and begs to snarl and bite at the ones who prevent her freedom. But what she fails to understand is that the world where she grew up is NOT everywhere.
Animalkind at this stage of existence is still simple-minded. Animals had nothing to think about except food-sleep-sex and with the expanded brain, they found a new capacity for hating humans and their condition. They just needed a leader to say that which they were thinking the entire time.
Unfortuntely for Mankind, her speech will motivate every anthro on the planet

Always interesting to see a genocidal fascist as a sympathetic character.
*****And on BBC News 24, we've just heard that some nut case has hacked every broadcast, satellite, and cable channel in North America. However all channels outside that continent seem unaffected. Apparently the hacker seemed blissfully unaware that they exist. More as we hear it.*****

Nice work VnP! Love the facial expression.
I bet I'm one of the only ones here who actually remembers that kind of test pattern being on the air though (right after the station ID announcement and the playing of "The Star Spangled Banner" at midnight). That was back when TV stations actually went off the air every night...
Great job!
