Time Travel RP (Closed Jamesian Republic - Insaanistan)

[The Jamesian Republic]

In the year 2021 on Gaia and Earth The Jamesian Republic has established diplomatic relations with the United States of America. With these new relationships has created new enemies and worries. One of the The Jamesian Republic’s enemies is Iran. In 1953 on Earth the C.I.A. overthrew the democratically elected parliament led by Mohammed Mossadegh. This event has caused the creation of a dangerous enemy that threatens to destroy life on Earth as people know it. President Scott Lewis has created a plan to return in time to undo these events.

President Lewis waiting anxiously for the Insaani Plane that transported Nura from Insaanistan to Gaia. President Lewis also had Konrad and The Shah of Farisa with him to help with a plan that President Lewis came up with. After meeting President Biden it was like looking into a mirror of what will be in 28 short years. Scott Lewis had denounced Russia China Iran North Korea and Saudi Arabia. This put the Jamesian Republic and Gaia on their enemy list. It was then after communicating with Dr. Alton about his research that Scott decided that he could perhaps undo the events that lead to the rise of the current Iranian government. That is why he summoned Nura here to Earth.

Nura and Soraya were hurling periodically as they arrived. Something about the warp did something weird to their stomachs.

Nura and Soraya were hurling periodically as they arrived. Something about the warp did something weird to their stomachs.

“I heard that the warp can cause some stomach upset and nausea and vomiting.” Scott said.
“Here, is some nausea medicine to help.” Konrad said as he made a bottle of medicine materialize from mid air.
“We need you in healthy condition to do this. It is very unconventional but it is possible if we apply our selves.” The Shah of Farisa said.

They all piled into a car that returned them to President House.

“Follow me into the Executive Office, I will explain why I summoned you.” Scott said.

After taking the medicine, the two followed Scott to his office, still unsure of why they had been asked there.

The Shah closed the door to the office. Konrad set up a slides projection. “Good now that you are here I will now brief you on why you are.” Scott said. Konrad turned off the lights. A slide of Joe Biden and Scott Lewis. “In July I met with President Biden. During our talks we discussed the similarities between our planets. During this we talked about Iran. You two know about the situation.” Scott explained. The slide switched to Mohammed Mossadegh “ In 1953 He was deposed by a British and American coup. This led to the Shah gaining full power. Then 1979 happened. Now your world is one step closer to war.” Scott continued. “ Iran has also called Jamesia their enemy.” The Shah said. “We believe that we can prevent this from happening and you can help us.” Konrad said. “We can do this using time travel.” Scott said.

Nura, still a bit sick, said nothing.
“Go on,” Soraya said.

“Similar to the Quantum Device that opened the portal between our worlds we believe we found a way to travel backwards in time. Now the machine has been prepped to go to Iran in 1953. Now we must find away to make the Iranian Parliament try to sit down with the British like what happened in our timeline.” Scott said. “We must convince them to make a treaty that will nationalize the oil and the British and other prospective countries will follow this. Our treaty allowed Farisa to own the oil and regulate who gets it. We must make it happen in your timeline.” The Shah said.

Nura finally spoke “But I barely speak Farsi.”
“I can do the talking,” Soraya said. “We’ll do it!”

“I don’t speak it either but I know we can hire a translator. Me and Konrad will pose as reporters from the United States since they are still allied with Iran it won’t be an issue. We have arranged for an interview with Mossadegh. The Shah of Farisa will stay in 2021. Now me and Konrad have packed supplies now both of you need to switch to clothes from the 1950s.” Scott said. Konrad brought a suitcase. “Me and President Lewis are covered since our world is aesthetically stuck between 1947 - 1964 on your planet.” Konrad said. “I will tell the scientists that you are getting ready.” The Shah said.

Soraya nodded and looked at Nura. Both were anxious and curious about the events to come. Nura had been in Gaia once, but accidentally and only in Jamesia. Soraya had never been.

After the two got ready they went to the Rectangle and met with a group of scientists. They were led to the basement. Computers which to Soraya and Nura were primitive but to Gaians were the epitome of technology. A scientist typed into a computer and a glowing blue light shined from a doorway. “Now once we go through this tunnel we will exist in 1953 Iran. It will be very different than it is now. Don’t suggest to anyone that you are from a different time. In the folders I gave you there is a dossier on The 1953 Farisan Oil Agreement, Mohammed Mossadegh, The Shah of Iran, and the Tudeh Party.” Scott said. We will be teleported to a few miles outside of Tehran. We have a car waiting for us and it will take us to a hotel in Tehran. The meeting will be held at 9:30 A.M. Tehran time August 10 1953. We will be transported two days before then.” Konrad explained. “If there are no questions then let’s go.” Scott said. Scott went to the portal Konrad followed. “Well, just take the first step.” Scott said.

Soraya was wearing a 1950s shirt and shorts, while Nura had chosen to wear a black hijab and black abaya. Soraya stepped in first, followed by Nura.

Soon the quartet was in the Iranian desert. “You know once you leave the city it is just desert and hot, unbearably hot and this is some one who grew up in South Aprica.” Konrad said. “The car is just over there. We used the machine to send the car here. A borrowed 1948 Ford Deluxe.” Scott said. He took out the keys and the group went to the car which was covered with dust. Konrad used his powers to get rid of the dust and dirt. They got in. They drove into Tehran. “The Shah of Farisa looks like the twin of Mohammed Reza Pahlavi.” Scott said. They passed pictures of him. “Listen we have 1 month before the coup begins. We don’t have time to waste. This article we are to write must convince the Americans that the British are being greedy.” Scott said

The two sisters nodded understandingly.

They arrived at a hotel. They got out and thankfully the staff spoke English of course heavily accented but English none the less. They checked in and had two different rooms. Soraya and Nura knocked on Scott and Konrad’s door. Scott let them in. “Now that we are here we must go over our plan.” Scott said. Konrad took out his folder and told them the plan. “Step 1: Arrive in 1953. Step 2: Check in the hotel. That we have done. Step 3: We must prepare for the meeting. Step 4: I will create false press badges and hypnotize the Associated Press in America to run the story. Step 5: Once we charm Mossadegh we convince him to sit down with Britain and help him draft up an agreement that both Iran and Britain will be satisfied with.” Konrad explained. “Any thoughts?” Scott asked.

“What if Mossadegh refuses?”

“Well then we have failed our mission. However perhaps the idea that the Americans could possibly be involved with the British could sway him. He already knows their stance on communism and the Tudeh Party does have some communist sympathizers. The idea of American interference would tip the scales a little Perhaps if we allude to it then perhaps he will listen. Whether or not this is possible remains to be said.” Scott explained.

“The interview won’t be for a few more days. Until then we should enjoy what time we have to spend in pre revolutionary Iran.” Scott said. “It’s so much like Farisa.” Konrad said “Except of course well Farisa is not about to go through a coup which will lead to an authoritarian monarchy which will then lead to an authoritarian theocracy.” He added. “To many people like you both this nothing more than some nostalgic picture from another time. However it doesn’t have to be this way. Surely a more moderate government will slowly make Iran like the west without the doing away of your traditions.” Scott said.

OOC: Once we get to the actual interview I want you to do the part of Mossadegh. Also since Qassim is from Farisa perhaps this can be the time that his grandparents learned about what will happen but because they were too late so they came to stop what will happen after the coup to Iran but they obviously failed. So in a non-canon way Scott and the others will do what his grandparents couldn’t.

(Got it).
Nura and Soraya went back to their rooms. However, they heard the athan.
“I’ll go find a mosque to pray at,” Nura said.
“I’ll stay and pray in my room, thank you,” Soraya said.

“I guess it must be time for prayer.” Scott said “While they do that I must use hypnosis to get the AP to give us press badges and to run the story.” Konrad said. “Do be careful when it comes to this story Konrad it is still the 1950s McCarthy is still running rampant in Congress.” Scott said. “Don’t worry. I will make sure that nothing happens to me. I am capable of more than mere parlor tricks. Remember that if there is one thing you should know is that I am much more powerful than you think.” Konrad said as he disappeared to do what he needed to do.

[Insaanistan]

Nura walked to the nearest mosque and entered, taking her shoes off.
“Salaam,” she said upon entering. Everyone was lining up for prayer.
That’s weird she thought. They’re putting a stone on a tissue in front of them.
The muezzin called the iqama, but something was different. He added something to the iqama.
Finally, the prayer began as the imam said “Allahu Akbar!” Nura crossed her arms, but everyone else had their arms to the side. Nura then remembered something:
Iranians were almost all Shiā Muslims.
Horrified, the lady on her right scooted away from her like Nura had some sort of disease. The one on her left stopped her prayer to begin yelling at her to get out of the mosque. Nura tried to concentrate and continue praying. Just her luck, she thought. She was sandwiched between the two most Sunniphobic people in the whole mosque.

Konrad returned from the Associated Press in New York.

“So what happened?” Scott said.
“Here are the press badges and our credentials. They agreed to run the story. I don’t know how much of an impact it may have but it will make the news.” Konrad explained.
“You didn’t make to much of a fuss did you?” Scott asked.
“No. Using my mind I was able to hypnotize the receptionist and the editor I spoke to. They didn’t resist that much. Now we must review our interview questions.” Konrad said.
“Very good then. You will go in as John Stone. That is your alias and you will do the questions. Also here is very small listening device to put in your watch. I will listen in.” Scott explained.
“Got it. I know what I need to do.” Konrad said.
