This is my baby. For those of you reading anything else I write this is what has been taking all my time and my thoughts. The beginnings a little rough, but it's that way on purpose. You'll be filled in soon enough ^-^

POV ?

"The President of the United States…" The station flipped. There was static before.

"Prime Minister of Canada…" another flip.

"…Queen of England." The camera zoomed in on an elderly lady who reflected the grace and poise of the royalty of old. She thought of the images she had watched of Queen Elizabeth II after the attacks by terrorists on English soil.

"My dearest country men, today light has been shed on a subject which has been one of history's greatest secrets. A secret many and few have known through the ages. The secret of which I speak is the personification of countries. Now I will begin by telling you the personifications have been around for centuries some even a millennia of time. They are nothing new. They have always been and will always be for the life time of the nation of which they represent.

"In my position as your Queen I have had many encounters with the nations, especially those of the United Kingdom and its common wealth. They are no great evil just as they are not gods. To my right I would like everyone to meet someone very dear to my heart. He has known me all of my life. He held my children when they were infants, my granddaughter vomited on his shoulder the first time they met. This seemingly young man is Arthur Kirkland. He is the personification of my dear England and the acting representative of the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland."

Briefly the cameras flashed to said man who looks more like a boy than a man. A too big button down slid slightly over his shoulders, a crooked tie hastily strewn about his neck. His face held upright and stern willing to take anything thrown at him, but the lovely emerald green eyes revealed a glimmer of fear and yet shined with hope. Bushy eyebrows hide in the unkempt shaggy mess that is his hair. Some of the United Kingdom and the commonwealth viewers fall in love with him at first sight. The others are uncertain. Those citizens of England find that in their hearts they truly cannot hate this boyish looking man and continue to watch curious as to what their Queen proposes. The cameras swivel back to royalty.

"Now, what I ask of you my dear countrymen is that you stand beside me. I ask that you stand beside England," She gestured to her side at the man. "I ask that you stand besides all the nations of the United Kingdom and that we defend them as they have defended our ancestors, our sisters and brothers, our mothers and fathers. I ask," at this she held both of her hands to the side making a small come here motion. Four men moved softly to her: the blonde of before, an almost identical copy of him, a tall broad shouldered red head and a twiggy teen move up beside her. "That you stand beside your countries," she placed a hand out touching each one in turn. "That you stand beside Scotland. That you stand besides Northern Ireland." The twiggy red head blushed as he was touched giving the cameras a shy and bashful smile that left some viewers awing at the sight. "I ask that you stand besides Wales." The identical twin that had not been shown previously beamed at the Queen. "I ask that you stand beside England." She tilted her head to the nervous blonde who now looked as if he was holding back tears. "Let us stand together in defense of our Nations. Let us be proud of them. And let us move forward for the glory of all the nations in the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland! Thank you." A cheer rose from the crowd while service men ushered the nations and the Queen off the stage.

"That was the Queen of the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland in response to the global outcry about the personification of nations. It's only been two days since the news was first unveiled and since then it has spread globally while several other nations are making similar speeches. An emergency meeting of the UN has been called along with the meeting of several governments. Now on to our correspondent in the United States where the President has just finished his speech. George."

"The response to the President's speech has not been unanimous. Most people seem to not have formed their own opinions as to what to do. A loud outcry has been made to have all of the nations' personifications identified and held securely until a solution has been found as to how to approach this new information. This is George Jameson reporting from the United States of America for the BBC news. Steve."

"Now we'll move to the ground where the Queen and the personified nations have taken their leave. Elizabeth, are you there?"

"Yes I am Steve."

"What can you tell me about the crowd's reaction to the Queen's speech?"

"There are some who are unsure of how they feel but the majority on the ground here are for standing by the Queen's message. They want to stand with their nations."

"Thank you Elizabeth."

"Let's move on to our political advisor. Lord Winningham, what do you think on the subject?"

"We should move on this cautiously. So far the United Kingdom has been the only nation to come out for the nations. Most of the governments of the world have not sided publicly if they are for or against the nations. The United Kingdom has taken a risky measure that could leave us open to attacks."

The T.V. was filliped off its viewer hugging her knees to her chest and rocking silently back and forth.
