Highlight what is being attacked when variable is called

I have variable for target.
I have alias for attacking target.
I want to pop up a Blue note saying Attacking: @target

Variable:
<variables>
<variable name="target">s</variable>
</variables>

alias for attacking target
<aliases>
<alias
match="3some"
enabled="y"
expand_variables="y"
group="combat"
sequence="100"
>
<send>kill @target
aim 2.@target
aim 3.@target
treport</send>
</alias>
</aliases>


alias for treport as I was hoping it I use a second alias it would to there coloring part since I need a script in this alias. Can you put a script in an alias and send to world at same time? I think that would solve it.

<aliases>
<alias
match="treport"
enabled="y"
expand_variables="y"
send_to="12"
sequence="1"
>
<send>ColourNote ("white", "blue", "Attacking: @target")</send>
</alias>
</aliases>

treport ends up sending to world with no colour note.

Yes, you can Send stuff, eg.

Well turns out that was pretty simple by adding your comment. Doing the below gives me the message I wanted on the screen and engages my targets. Thanks for your help!

<aliases>
<alias
match="some"
enabled="y"
expand_variables="y"
group="combat"
send_to="12"
sequence="100"
>
<send>ColourNote ("white", "blue", "Mass attacking: %1")
Send ("kill @target")
Send ("aim 2.@target")
Send ("aim 2.@target")</send>
</alias>
</aliases>
