1. Prologue

Colby Agoosetus heart pounded as the sound of thunderous applause, shouting, and cheering thundered around her. She shakily made her way across the enormous stage, the bright lights from above and camera flashing nearly bringing out the tears that had been threatening to break through since night before. This was the biggest moment of her career so far and she wouldn't screw it up because of a silly crush. She reached her place and gave a tight smile before beginning the introduction she had been born to give.

She began with confidence and poise "Hello delegates of 2016 Democratic National Convention!"

The room erupted into cheering even louder than before. Colby looked down, smiling with a laugh before continuing.

"I began my career as an ER Nurse 6 years ago, I never expected to be here in front of millions of Americans introducing the woman who is about to speak to you. This woman is my mentor, she helped me become who I am today and I have been honored to serve with her in patient advocacy for the last two years. She has worked tirelessly over the course of decades to fight for patients across this great country and helped President Skywalker work toward affordable healthcare coverage for every American. Today the people of the Democratic Party have spoken. Please join me in welcoming Leia Organa Solo, friend, mother, sister, Surgeon, Senator, Secretary of Health and Human Services and your nominee for President of the United States."

Colby stepped to the side as Secretary Solo made her way across the stage as the sound of the crowd became deafening. The spirit in the room couldn't have been lighter, the entire convention had been infused with a sense of unification and hope that hadn't been felt for years, but Colby felt like a block of lead.
