(So quick AN before we start: this is my first story, so please give me some slack as I have not written in the past. But other than that, let's begin)
White House, Washington DC, United States of America. Monday, February 20, 2018
"Good Morning DC. This is your morning news of a recap of what happened last week: First up, is the impeachment of President Donald Harding after multiple corruption charges and scandals. His successor will be Speaker of the House John Maker as even the Vice President were apart of the scandals. Next up, is a special report: A weird gate has appeared in front of the Washington Monument, and has perplexed authorities, no one has taken responsibility for this act and is under investigation…"
The now incumbent President then turned off the TV as he read the New York times with the headline "New President James Maker inaugurated: Public concern over the new administration grows" As he did, President Maker could already feel that this could be the position that will end him as the last President left a mess over a mile high that felt impossible to fix. He was then lost in thought, before the black phone on his desk rang and brought him out of his thought and answered it.
The morning was going alright within Fort Lesley as all of the soldiers were doing their morning routine. Some were on watch, some were doing morning exercises, some soldiers were in the firing range practicing on targets, and some soldiers were even in the garage doing maintenance on their Humvees and Armored Personal Carriers.
All of this, was because of a complaint made by the Department of the Army as the report stated in their last checkup, 'Fort Lesley have decreased in quality in comparison of its soldiers from the past. As in the past, the army has successfully broke the the 10 minute or less time stamp to reach the White House consistently, yet the current stationed soldiers reached the White House in 11 minutes or more.' So, what that meant was that Fort Lesley would better improve their soldiers to meet the Department of the Army's criticisms, or the entire Fort, might be re staffed, and the current staff would be either dismissed or transferred to different Forts across the country.
In the Pentagon, Secretary of Defense Kevin. B, Harper was at his desk looking over the command center of the Department of Defense taking a drink out of his coffee as he had a long night due to his work getting out of hand. For he was one of the only people in the old administration that wasn't charged for a crime and/or removed from power as he didn't do anything wrong as he mainly focused on his work. So, as he looked at the current troop movements and activity across the planet, he also read the current situations between other nations and the most current information that was gathered by the CIA. After that though, Kevin then checked out a picture sent to the FBI of the weird Gate that sprung up in front of the Washington Monument, and worried look on his face, he then thought What the hell is that thing? And if something happens, can our guys respond fast enough to minimize damage and protect the President and Congress all at once?
Washington DC, the capital of the United States of America and one of the one of the most important cities in America. With close to 700,000 people living in the nation's capital, it's in the top 25 most populous cities in America. Even though the Capital was built to defend against a land invasion, the only time that it was truly attacked was in the War of 1812. But on this day of February, 20, 2018, that statistic would change as with the rest of the world.
As a child and her mother walked pass the Gate, the young child then stopped in front of the Gate and looked at it with a curious look and asked, "Mommy, where does that Gate go to?" As she just saw pitch black.
The mother then looked at what the child was seeing and replied, "I don't know… Let's get away from it. It's creeping Mommy out." A group of people also crowded around the entrance as they took pictures of the Gate. On the other side, was the road and what the drivers saw there was a wall where the other side of the Gate should be.
When suddenly, a large horn then erupted from the darkness and the sounds of horses, men, and other creature came from the darkness and charged at the crowd in front of them, killing at least 20 people from the initial charge.
The mother then yelled at her child, "RUN!" As she was then stabbed through the gut killing her while her child was running as fast as her little legs could run away from the army.
Once the local area was clear of people, the commander of the attack looked at the Washington Monument and said, "What power this empire must have to erect an obelisk so high and mighty… Capture it, and continue on with the attack."
So, a couple of cavalry men with an ogre then ran up to the Monument and cut down all the American flags and replaced the four corner ones with the empire's flags. And thus, The Invasion of Washington DC began.
(So, how was that? Please give me a review to give critiques on the story to help me. Also, the next chapter will be longer I promise. So until then.)
