President Scheaffer sat at his desk, laughing as he signed a document which finally took the last shred of control away from the National Senate and handed it over to the Executive branch of the government, "It's all mine now," he said to himself as he went over the rest of his paperwork. The Judicial branch had long been under his control, thus making him and anyone he wanted above the law... it had been a slow process, but the nation his father had founded was finally under his control again.

He went on television that night, and spoke before the National Senate and the world, "People of Aequatio and the world, with this document, I have dissolved the power of the senate and taken control of the judicial branch, including the Higher Courthouse and have returned ultimate rule to the bloodline that built the foundations of this great nation!"

A senator stood up from his seat and pointed a judgemental finger at the President, "Bomfy didn't have any children, he was single his entire life so that his family members could not be used against him as collateral! You're nothing but a fraud, Schaeffer!"

"Don't you dare accuse me of fraud, senator, I am anything but!" hissed back the president, "As you can see behind me... blood and DNA tests prove that I am the direct decendent of Bomfy, founder and savior of Aequatio!" The large viewscreen on the wall displayed a diagram of a DNA strain of both Bomfy and of Schaeffer side by side, then being placed one over the other... they were a perfect match, "As you can now see... and I intend to rule this country as my father would have seen fit!"

And with that, Schaeffer grinned and walked off the stage and out of the National Senate chambers.

Valeriya sat in her chair, hands together, deep in thought. She had just seen the broadcast that had been made by President Schaeffer, and she was troubled by it. "Someone has to stop him... this Auquatio has spent far too much time under corrupt rule..." she said to herself.

She spent the next few minutes deciding on a course of action, then quickly moved to her computer and typed up a telegram to the President.


Dear Mr. President,

It has come to my attention that you have taken control of your country by rather... questionable actions. While it is no t my place to agree or disagree with your actions, I believe that this may be a good time for our two countries to meet and discuss the possibility of trade alliances and whatnot. We are rather close neighbors, after all, and with a change of government other actions can just as well take place alongside it. Feel free to contact me at your leisure to discuss the matter further.

Most Appreciatively,
President Valeriya Ivanov
United Socialist States of Rhanafka

Valeriya smiled and sent the letter, hoping that this could possibly work in her favor in the future endevors of herself and her country.

Madam President, we have felt that it was time for a meeting to discuss future
opporutinuties between our nations. President Schaeffer is willing to meet with
you or a delegate of your choice in our capital of Magna Casa.

To: Grays Hill
From: Minister of Foreign Affairs June Roberts, Aequatio

We can assure you that President Schaeffer is not "power hungry" as you
proclaimed, he only wishes to continue the legacy which began by his
father at the founding of the nation.

Valeriya read over the message quickly and nodded, smiling. She took a long sip of her ever-present coffee before writing a reply.

President Schaeffer returned to Bomfy Manor, feeling very empowered after his speech at the now-defunct Senate and was looking forward to meeting with the delegates from Rhanafka. He entered his office and sat at his desk, an aide walked in with the dossier intelligence agents had created from information collected in the field and satellite photographs, "If I'm going to deal with these people, I want to know all I can about them."

On the plane, President Ivanov was going over a folder of files on Schaeffer, while her Minister of Foreign Affairs, Nina Lagviev, went over a folder of information on Aequatio and her international affairs as of late. Valeriya sipped coffee as she read the papers, picking up the most important details fairly quickly.

"We have to be careful, Nina... this man seems like he could be dangerous if things aren't handled carefully," she said quietly.

Nina nodded. "Of course," she said. "Things will be handled appropriately."

Valeriya had the utmost of faith in her companion, and felt rather confident as she packed away the files to prepare for landing.

As soon as the plane from Rhanafka had entered Aequatian airspace, two Aequatian Air Force F-22 fighters took up positions on each side of the aircraft. One of the pilots opened a channel to the plane, "Rhanafkan presidential liner, this is Eagle one, we were ordered to escort you to Bomfy Memorial International Airport and make sure that your journey through Aequatian airspace was completely safe, over."
Rhanafka
27-07-2004, 03:39
The pilot of Ivanov's private jet responded quickly. "Of course, Eagle one. Do as ordered, just don't get too close. Would look awfully bad if we crashed with Aequatian escorts," the pilot laughed. "Over."

"Roger that, we're in the best planes in the Aequatian inventory, so you've got no need to worry," replied the pilot, "Just call us if you need anything, Eagle one out."

As the plane nears the airport, he and his copilot begin prelanding procedures, routine as they are. "We are preparing for landing, Eagle one."

"Affirmative, Eagle one and two heading home, enjoy your stay in the Republic!" replied the pilot as both of the fighters broke off and left for their home airbase.

An aide entered President Schaeffer's office, "Sir, the airliner from Rhanafka is on its approach to land at the airport, the motorcade has been sent and will be waiting for them outside the airport."

"Send an envoy inside to meet them and bring them to their car," said the president as he began to clean off his desk of the papers and folders he had been going through.

Valeriya and Nina fastened their seatbelts after being informed of imminent landing. They sat quietly as the plane slowly headed down for the runway and touched down in a routine and utterly uninteresting landing. The pair then collected their carry-ons and, preceeded by their security team, prepared to disembark.

The Aequtian envoy and an accompanying pair of Secret Service agents waited at the gate for the president and her retinue to arrive. Charles was nervous, this was his first time outside of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs building on official business, he was representing the nation until he brought the madam president to Bomfy Manor to meet with Schaeffer.

As they came off the landing ramp, Nina quickly took up a position ahead of the rest of the entourage. Valeriya walked behind her, flanked by her security officers. Two followed behind them, carrying the women's bags.

The group stopped just before the Aequatian envoy. Nina stepped forward and stuck out her hand to shake Charles', smiling. "Hello, I am Nina Lagviev, Minister of Foreign Affairs. This," she said, stepping aside to allow Valeriya to come forward, "Is Madame Prseident, Valeriya Ivanov."

"Hello, sir," she greeted him warmly, apparently quite happy to finally be off the plane and back on solid ground.

"Madam President Ivanov, it is an honour to welcome you to our great Republic, I am Charles Kinloch, I am with the Foreign Affairs Ministry and will be bringing you to Bomfy Manor where you will be meeting with President Schaeffer and staying for the duration of your visit," said the envoy as he and the agents directed Valeriya and her group to where the motorcade was waiting outside the airport.
