As the shining light of the torch of liberty sunk into the depths of the harbour, crowds of people watched from a distance, some cheering, others left in silence. Some watched from the comforts of their homes, garnering a similar response. All the while a boat rocked in the harbour alone, more people onboard watching the historical event unfold.
The smile placed on one particular passenger was not mirrored by his counterpart. Two men, side by side, looked on in a way that simply can not be described with mere words. The particular passenger leaned against the railining of the boat, taking in everything he saw.
His dreams were no longer fantasies drawn up in his head or words written down on paper,
"Finally. A light goes out."
...
An alternate history fic heavily inspired/based on the book and tv show "The Man in the High Castle" (You may see a lot of parallels to the tv show more so than the book) The telling of a 'what if' scenario, ran through the perspective of America, Alfred F. Jones.

The Storm [DISCONTINUED]
{STORY DISCONTINUED and I'm probably never gonna finish it whoops} The world is ending, obviously. America never really paid attention to the news, only Good Morning America, of course, but when the flooding and crippling storms started in the south and worked their way to D.C., he got nervous. There were warnings, scientists predicted the amount of blah, blah, science, science, random crap, big words. . . World catastrophe. The Storm. Bunkers and shelters were built, supplies were stocked, factories and farmers worked around the clock before the Storm could hit them. One might think the United States was prepping for war, and in a way, they were. They had to fight for their lives. Alfred is alone in a bunker, panicking for his people and brothers and the rest of the countries like Japan and Germany. He hears a distant muffled sound above the howling winds, a frightened little boy sits in the corner with an old stuffed bunny sucking his thumb. No one notices him. How is America supposed to protect hundreds of people and himself against a storm that could kill people in a number of ways? And now a kid had moved him to become his caretaker. When Alfred became independent from England, France had muttered to him that he didn't know the pain of raising a child then losing it. But know, he assumes that he may just learn.

Several twists and turns begin to crumble, as a hidden secret between Arthur, Matthew, and Alfred comes to light. While Matthew descends into mental chaos- the rest of the nations manage to take back the journal, only to find out some horrible secrets the American has about them.
