Author Note: What if the Commander in Red Alert 3 for the Allies was American? What if he were an American Patriot? This is a one-shot, maybe a multi-chapter.

Foreign and Domestic

Mount Rushmore, The United States of America

1986

"It looks like the President's gone rogue on us - this is so hard for us to believe! Nevertheless, we have a job to do. Take out the Communications Tower before he transmits a code to fire."

The words of Lefttennant Eva led to the feeling of bile rising in the throat of Brigadier General Xaiver Jones; graduate of West Point, Commander of the American 8th Army, Hero of the United States. "What?" He said simply as he listened to her broadcast, the Lefttennant's face lit up on the display. She stared at the Commander quizzically as though confused.

"No." The General said as his command car screeched to a stop. "I am a citizen of the United States of America, and I am soldier in the United States Army. My President's command is absolute. I am loyal; and as per my oath; I will defend him and this nation against all threats; foreign and domestic." Silence consumed the line as the Lefttennant reeled back as though struck, shocked.

"You're a member of the Allied Forces!" She retorted and the Commander shook his head. "I am Brigadier General Xavier Jones of the United States Army, Commander-General of the American 8th Army. I am an American; and it is my solemn oath to protect my nation and my president from all threats. You all who threaten him, you are my enemy."

He then turned to his communications device that led to his men in field. "This is General Jones, to all American forces loyal to The United States; President Ackerman is under assault by the traitors of the Allied Coalition. It is our sworn duty as Americans to protect him. Battle stations!"

The Communications HUD flashed again and Warren appeared on screen, a United States Marine more than anyone should've understanded! "Warren." Jones said pointedly as the command collumn came to a stop.

"Jones." The Marine began before he continued; "I always knew he was a little wound up but I never seen this coming. ...Alright, lets get moving - we got to stop our crazy president."

Jones blinked as his jaw clenched hard. "You fucking traitor." He said bluntly causing the Marine to blink. "We took an oath!" He screamed as he pointed angrily at the Marine's projection. "We took an oath to defend this country and all it's citizens from all threats! Foreign and domestic! You; a United States Marine would turn on the President of the United States? You're a fucking traitor!"

Warren's image flickered and the Marine responded. "No, Jones. Ackerman is the President, yeah; and I took that same oath as you; but listen to it again. From all threats, foreign and domestic." The Marine said bluntly. "The President is going to cause the death of hundreds of millions of Americans, and that I will stop; even if I have to bowl you over to do it!"

Jones knew the Marine was serious; the deadpan look and rage in his eyes told him so but the Commander was loyal, both of them stood on equal ground tactically, both of them knew the outcome of the coming storm.

"Contact President Ackerman." Jones directed the computer manually to do so; the screen flickered a few seconds later to the President's face. "None of you have the guts to do what needs to be done, so I'm going to wipe the Soviets off this planet myself, and you can't stop me! Should my heart stop beating, the weapon fires."

The Commander nodded solemnly. "I will ensure that does not happen, Mister President. I am an American, I took an oath to defend this country from all threats, foreign and domestic. You are the President of the United States; Commander and Chief of the Army and Navy. I await your orders, Sir." Jones saluted stiffly much to the President's apparent surprise.

"Alright Commander, set your forces up in a defensive perimeter around Mount Rushmore, lets show these godless bastards what happens when you screw with the good ol'USofA!"

"Sir, Yes Sir."

Author's Note: Okay, I suppose I just turned RA3 into a civil war. Hah. Will be multi-Chapter and much longer and of quality next installment.
