Petition, Preparing for War, WTH

It was peaceful on the island of Etouos, the sea was calm and the sky was sunny. The General of the OWLs was pacing around his private office in Ossyria's Town Hall. He had been itching for ALL OUT WAR FARE for ages! "I know! I'm going to send a letter to Ryba if he wants to attack us!"
( I badly wanted to attack someone or be attacked. I wanted to see how my army would fare against a large force)
Ryba replied peacefully saying he would attack in 24 hours 'cause he wanted to pick on some helpless noob.

The General was EXTREMELY happy about this.
(Yup)
"CUT FUNDING FOR A 3RD COLONY! PREPARE THE TROOPS! BUY MORE UPGRADES! BUILD MORE SHIPS! WE'RE GOING TO KICK RYBA'S AS- I mean...ummm....NECK!"
( I went into crazy Military Operation mode during this time)
The town of Ossyria was preparing for an all out fight to the death. Upkeep rose by hundreds. Hundreds of people were being recruited and becoming dogs of the military (not really).

"ALRIGHT MEN! PREPARE FOR BATTLE! RYBA SHOULD START SENDING HIS TROOPS IN ABOUT 6 HOURS! GUARD THE WALLS!"
(coughcoughIdidn'tdothiscoughcough)
*the general starts ranting about how Ryba could attack at any time and some other inspiring crap*
(Nope)
12 hours later.....

"Ummm General sir? They're still not here...."
"WHAT!? ARE YOU CHICKENING OUT ON ME?"
"No...it's just that we've been standing in this same spot for about 12 hours..."

(I was waiting all day at school to come home and see how Ryba attacked me)

*diplomat dude runs to them*

"SIR! WE HAVE JUST RECEIVED A LETTER FROM RYBA! HE SAYS HE DOESN'T HAVE ENOUGH MONEY TO ATTACK US! HE IS SORRY!"

(Maybe he really did run out of money, maybe he's scared, or maybe, he has no men. I don't know.)

*OM*G!!!111oneone!1!!1eleven!1!! WTH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!*

(Yes this really happened)
