About the Author

Chapter 1

Well, Mr. President, Mr. Deputy President are you two ready to get out there and give your speeches. President Brians' Chief of Staff inquired of President Brians and Deputy President Callsen.

Ready as I'll ever be, I guess. President Brians responded as he went before the crowd of people which had assembled outside the executive building for his swearing-in. Cameramen from Amderesta Republic News Network, Dancalian Republic News Network, Chorane Republic News Network, Branisian Republic News Network, Rylon-Tylonian Republic News Network, Tarozenian Republic News Networks, Analkian Republic News Network and various privately-ran videoscreen channels would broadcast the inauguration to trillions of humans and aliens throughout the Amdronian Group, Northern Group, and Eastern Group.

Chief Judge Andrews proceeded to give the oath of office to President Brians and Deputy President Callsen.

On Taronia, Commander Jonathan Lencon sat in his office at Taronia Region Amderestan Military Field Command Headquarters and read over the latest reports which concerned Operation Northern Engagement Taronia. STPLA had suffered a major defeat thanks to intelligence obtained by Ensign Andrea Forrester and things began to return to normal.

Ensign Andrea Forrester, her twin brother Ensign Timothy Forrester sat at the bar in Adains' and watched President Brians speech on the videoscreen above the bar. Luke Adains poured three glasses of Ranchanian Ale for some off-duty TRIB Agents, then he turned his attention to the Forrester twins.

Andrea, Timothy. Luke Adains said. What can I get you two?

What they're having. Ensign Andrea Forrester responded referring to the three Taronia Region Investigation Bureau Agents. Tim?

I'll have a Ranchanian Ale as well. Ensign Timothy Forrester responded.

You two are off-duty right now, right? Luke Adains inquired of Andrea and Timothy who nodded yes to his answer.

I just wanted to make sure, considering the two of you are military intelligence officers, and sometimes your great-grandfathers came in here out of uniform. Luke Adains told Ensign Andrea Forrester and Ensign Timothy Forrester as he poured them two glasses of Ranchanian Ale and was paid for the drinks.

STPLA wants us to think they're leaving the Taronia Region alone and just focusing on the Tourist Region, Swearia Region, and Parisia Region. Ensign Andrea Forrester commented as she slowly drank her glass of Ranchanian Ale.

The three Taronia Region Investigation Bereau Agents seated at the end of the bar perked up at Andrea's comment. Ensign, STPLA lost a large portion of their forces thanks to you. A TRIB Agent told Andrea who rotated her barstool to face him.

First, that information is classified. Ensign Andrea Forrester responded. Second, we should not let our guard down.

On Amderestan Military Base Charles Lencon, Commander Jerrin sat in the briefing room at base headquarters to debrief the various Infantry Assault Unit Commanders whose units were stationed at the base.

Meanwhile in the Kanalsian Galaxy Amderestan Military Occupation Zone, Amderestan Military Expeditionary Force Beta under the command of Commander John Kelly was tasked with the administration of planetary systems in the Kanalsian Galaxy under their control. The local Kanalsian Administrative Districts in the Second through Twelfth Kanalsian Council District retained their locally-ran governments.

In the Kanalsian High Council building, Commander John Kelly who oversaw the Amderestan Military Occupation Forces in the Kanalsian Galaxy Amderestan Military Occupation Zone sat in the office which was previously used by the High Councilor. The window to his left while seated at the desk gave a view of several buildings in Kanalsia City damaged in the intense combat. He activated the videoscreen on the desk and proceeded a broadcast a public address to the Kanalsians under Amderestan Military occupation.

Those of you who are able to receive this transmission, this is Commander John Kelly, Military Governor of the Kanalsian Galaxy Amderestan Military Occupation Zone. Commander Kelly said. He took a breath and continued. A lot of you are currently residing in temporary housing constructed by the Amdronian Group Alliance Refugee Agency which is working alongside EGARA to restore water, power, communication and transportation services. We'll remain here as long Crescent sees fit. Anyone thinking about starting an insurgency against the Amderestan Military be forewarned, we'll use all necessary forces to repress any such uprisings. A curfew is in effect for all planets in the Kanalsian Galaxy Amderestan Military Occupation Zone from 2000 hours to 0600 hours Crescent Time. If you are out during curfew, you'll be arrested and detained by Amderestan Military military police. This notice has been posted throughout the various cities.

Meanwhile in the Lisalian Galaxy Amderestan Military Occupation Zone, Colonel John-Jack Forrester who had spent the last few hours at one of the many Amderestan Military checkpoints in and around Linnan City parked his speeder in front of a bar and made his way inside.

John-Jack found an empty seat at the bar and ordered himself a glass of Ranchanian Ale which he slowly drank from. He looked at his Santurian DA-974 -A datapad and read several news articles that discussed the Amderestan Military Occupation Force in the Kanalsian Galaxy. The Article went on to discuss the possibility of a phased withdrawal of Amderestan Military Occupation Forces to a buffer zone along the western border of the Kanalsian Galaxy.

Over on Crescent, Senator Thomas Linnen who led the Amderestan Republic Party in the Amderestan Senate was sworn in as Prime Minister by Deputy President Callsen. The newly elected Administrative District Senators, Region District Senators, and Territorial Senators were sworn in by Deputy President Callsen and took their seats in the legislature chamber.

The Amderestan Senate is now in session. Deputy President Callsen said. The chair recognizes Prime Minister Linnen for forty-five minutes.

Thank you, Mr. President. Prime Minister Thomas Linnen responded as he stood up to address the Senators in the majority and opposition. "Fellow Senators, thanks to the efforts of Commander Jonathan Lencon we have dealt a major blow to the STPLA in the Taronia Region.

Let's all be honest here. As a Taronian I saw the actions by STPLA forces firsthand and bear the scars of such actions. Amderestan Military forces in the Taronia Region should remain under Code One Tactical Alert and work alongside the Taronia Region Investigation Bureau and local law enforcement agencies in the case of renewed STPLA attacks in the Taronia Region.

Despite the ending of martial law imposed by President Brians in the Taronia Region, a State of Emergency is still in effect due to the ongoing conflict with the STPLA and we shouldn't underestimate their ability to quickly reorganize their forces. Mr. President, I reserve the remainder of my time."

Senator Brian Thompson who was the newly elected Region Senator for the Southeast Taronia Region District was recognized by Deputy President Callsen and he took the floor.

Mr. President, I share the concerns of the prime minister. STPLA may take this time to reorganize their forces or to blend into the civilian population. There are those primarily in the Amderestan Democrat and Amderestan Unionists Parties who would like to see Commander Lencon court-martialed for actually winning against STPLA forces. This threat is far from over. As a retired Amderestan Military officer holding the rank of Colonel, I have seen my share of combat during my fifteen years of service to the 4th Amderestan Republic in uniform. We've been at war against STPLA forces since 89,945 and we have finally begun to make a major stride towards victory.

Back on Taronia, Ensign Andrea Forrester and her twin brother Ensign Timothy Forrester finished their glasses of Ranchanian Ale, and they proceeded towards the glass door which had an opaque sign which read Adain's that was backwards to the perspective of people inside the bar.

Ensigns. A plainclothes Pairisian Military Intelligence Officer said. I need a moment of your time. He led Andrea and Timothy to a table towards the back of the bar and continued. "As you are two aware, Parisian Military Intelligence and Tarozenian Military Intelligence has been monitoring chatter from STPLA forces. They want us to
