30 Minute War

The 30 Minute War was the first war that took place since the start of the new chapter, happening in the Better Watch Out season. The war resulted in the defeat of the Ball Sack Society (BSS) and the dissolution of the Gas Station Society (GSS).
== The Oil Reserve ==
Shriek850, a key member of the GSS, needed a fuel source for his contraption dubbed the Earthmover. With how resource intensive it was, it would need a suitably large amount of fuel for it to work.
When Shriek had found out about the oil reserve that the BSS had been sitting on, he began scheming on a means to obtain it. 
== Declaration of War ==
On 22:27 EST of December 29th 2023, Shriek officially declared a state of war against Faknocker, owner of the BSS. Members of the GSS were taken aback by this sudden declaration, criticizing Shriek for his pettiness and willingness to start wars for so little. 
Roughly 50 minutes after the announcement, Faknocker shared an image of him standing at the entrance to the GSS underground, where they keep all of their machinery and most important resources. Members of the GSS soon learned this was not a mere threat but a before image of complete disaster. They found many of their machines in total ruin and their chests robbed of all items. 
Sometime after the wrecking of GSS, Shriek and Faknocker arranged a duel. This duel ended with the victory of Shriek850. 
In response to Faknocker blowing the underground up, Shriek visited Faknocker's home and gave him the same treatment by blowing it up. This further angered citizens of both GSS and BSS. 
== Diplomatic Alternative ==
During the war, a more peaceful solution was offered, in which the conflict would be resolved through a trial of law. Leo Genesium was appointed the judge of the trial, with Shriek and Faknocker searching for an attorney to represent them. 
This idea had not gotten far before the war ended abruptly with agreements between the citizens of GSS and Faknocker.
== An Unsatisfactory End ==
With the agreement between GSS and Faknocker settled, the war came to an end. Many critical members of the GSS had left it to its ruin, parting ways to now do their own things. Faknocker dissolved the BSS, now living with Yamper1163 in their new nation. FireCode125 now runs New Year Industries.
Shriek now solely maintains GSS, having achieved what he wanted the whole time, which was to seize control of GSS and rule it for himself.
== Trivia ==
