-We are now going back to Martins-

When I crossed to the U.F. border I was greeted by U.F. guns pointed at my face. But then they figured out I was a soldier of the U.F., they apologized and let me go. Since Loursa was destroyed my family sent me a letter telling me they moved to Tregun. I had got a ride to Tregun luckily by a guy who I remember. A soldier who thought I was a Imperium spy just a minute ago. When I got to my new home my family was so happy to see me. My sisters, mom and dad came came running out of the house to hug me.

"We thought you were you were dead." my father says while wrapping his arms around me.

"I thought I was dead too." I say with a smile.

I was so happy to be back with my family. But that happiness didn't last I was haunted by the memories. War changed me. My family noticed I have been acting differently. I was always looking around, ready to kill someone. When ever I heard a loud sound I grab my thigh where the holster for my pistol used to be.

One day when walking to the park with my little sister I ran into someone who I was not expecting at all, Nick.

-The Imperium Empress's story a topic I'll share with you right now-

Emily was raised as a normal middle class person. She would even forget she is from a line of Royalty. She was always shy even at a young age. She had a hard time making friends and a harder time talking to people. She was an excellent student and had a big heart. Emily's best and only friend had been a schoolmate she had worked with, Rosabel Tucker. Over the years they became the best of friends.

Ever since Emily came to rule Rosabel has been supporting her. Still the Council has been controlling her power. The Council was being controlled by a Dictator named Xavier Frost. He had bribed, killed, and blackmailed people to control them. No one knows of his secret rule except for him and his henchmen. Xavier had thought more like a corporate leader than a political leader. He made plans for expansion, growth, and overall power.

Frost approved of the attack on U.F. civilians. He approved of over pollution of factories. When it comes between Frost and his goal, nothing stands in his way.

-We are going to be cutting to a battle at the frontlines of the war-

The Battle of Balufor. All U.F. troops received uniforms from a economic growth in the U.F.. In the trenches troops were locked in a bloody stalemate. Warmachines from the Imperium tipped the scales but not for long. U.F. Bombers were at the ready for a big strike at the Imperium's armor. With no defense against the air the Imperium troops were all that was left and it was few. Then the strafing runs from the fighters came to finish the enemy completely. Balufor was an easy win for the U.F. and the other places without air defenses.

The Imperium had started making many anti air cannons to counter the Warplanes. But the U.F. Army had saved a lot of G24 Tanks from the battles won by the air. The Imperium air cannons were defended by infantry and vehicles but were out numbered by the U.F..

-We shall return to David at Vallcam Peak-

The elves had put me in a room with two guards pointing spears at me. Still some of this place is scared by a explosion that happened hundreds of years ago even though pilgrims have tried to repair it.

"Red Beast your time has come." An elf said to me.

I stand up and they lead me to a open room where it looks like they were ready with a ritual. They chant in a strange elvish language. The room was lined with strange items what looked like magical relics. I stand at the center of the room as they conduct the ritual. Then over my head a purple flame  appears. Then starts to tear open a hole through thin air, making a portal. The portal slowly lowers. I tried to get out of it's way but I couldn't move. It slowly engulfed me then I teleported to what looked like a other dimension. I was standing in a dark world with jagged rocks and mountains everywhere. The only light I see is from the two red moons in the sky and sparse faint glowing rocks from the surface.

-We will now be following the U.F. President-

Catherine Mason is a local town leader and was one of the people who claimed the U.F. as a separate country from the Imperium. She helped towns with neighborhood problems  and resource management between towns. She took political classes and aced them. She was proud and outgoing.She had a big loving family to always support her.

-This is the part where Catherine gets kidnapped. She's at her presidential desk in her office signing laws-

I am drowning in problems right now. I have a war happening in my country when it was just growing. We would easily be defeated if it wasn't for the U.F.'s will to keep fighting. Our freedom is all that matters to us now. Then I hear a commotion in the other room. Then I hear what sounds like gun fire.

Bodyguards run into my room and say. "Miss President we have to leave! Your life is in danger!"

My guards escort me to the safe room but as we open the door to the safe room my guards were met with guns in their faces. Then they were immediately shot point blank. The men who killed my bodyguards weren't Imperium. Their uniforms were different and unrecognizable.

Then a man wearing a U.F. Commander uniform and a horrible scar on his face steps toward me and said. "One down, one more to go."

His soldiers take me to a U.F. Military truck and take me away.

-Now for the Empress-

I look around my room for my favorite book, Tales of Crystalwick. I can't seem to find it anywhere. So I just settle with listening to the radio for a while. Then I hear something strange. A grappling hook flies right through my window. I rush to my door to get the guards but my door was locked. I started screaming for the guards but no one came. A man climbed through my window, tied me up, then carried me out of the window to a car and took me away.
