The Bombardier BD-700 Global Express sat on the runway in the Potsdam National Air Force Base. Piloting the flight were the Richtoff's favorites; Colonel John Lewis was piloting the flight and Second Leiutenant Lionel Richards was acting as copilot. At about 1300 hours, a strech limo - obviously with military grade armor - bearing GGA flags pulled onto the runway and up next to the plane. The door opened, and a group of men emerged. Among them were 5 Secret Service Agents, or the GGA equivilant, and the important figures. The agents stood next to the aircraft, ready to sacrifice themselves if things went awry. This was a daily routine, and yet they still took it on with the same intensity. Besides Eric Richtoff, Secretary of State Jorg Greach, Secretary of Defense Bjorn Pfern, and Secretary of Commerce Oliver Polask climbed into the plane. The Attorney General would be assuming administrative duties in their absence. The agents then boarded, and the plane began its course to Paris.
A Couple Of Hours Later
The Bombardier entered Paris Airspace and began its descent towards the WEF Air Force Base. They were staying away from the media at the normal airports. "This is Foxtrot Zulu Niner requesting permission to land."
"Permission to land Granted" Replied the Head of Military Operations at the WEF Paris Air Base, located some three miles out of the city.
The plane landed with grace, and, after a short while a man who looked like a pilot opened the doors somewhat triumphantly to be greeted by a rather bare site. The media had come to the scene in frenzy, going to all normal airports and soon realising that the Airbase would be the next port of call. So, around 60 Journalists waited outside the front entrance to France's third largest military base, whilst a limo, with both the WEF and GGA flag flown at the front, plus a trail of two more limos for GGA important personal, and a few black jeeps and sedans for security greeted the GGA into what many thought was the most beautiful city in the world - though currently they were in a quiet, quite empty concrete sterile airbase.
The limo and trail left the base speedily through a heavily guarded back gate, and the trip through Paris was surprising quiet, with little media presence and Richtoff staring at the sights he passed through his backed out windows.
Infront Of The Eiffel Tower, Paris, 14:55pm
Mrs. Laura Harding wondered how and why she had become close allies with a fascist dictator. Public opinion of the man, and the GGA as a whole were quite low in the WEF – they felt as if our country should be leaning towards the more democratic ways of America. But, the GGA had done WEF some favours, and they were there largest and most threatening neighbour, and also maintained relations with Russia, something the WEF chose not to, so they were useful – she wondered what the man himself would be like.
She thought this as she stood infront of a podium, with Richtoff a metre away from her on a similar podium, and with each one of them having the flags of there nations waving behind them. With most of the world likely to hear of the event within a few days, she had to keep smart and calm. She was not an unattractive; she wore a smart grey suit and looked her age – 45. There were around 1500 people infront of her, firstly around 250 diplomats, most of them on the Commission, some from the GGA and others reps from other Third Alliance countries. Then, after heavy guarding and a long wall made by a fence and guards, there were around 150 selected people from the media, from all respective nations of the world nearly – and behind them a public gathering had taken place. She was in the centre of Paris, the Eiffel Tower loomed behind her – it had been closed for the day. She did not approve of the media getting better views than the public, but she knew it was important the world heard her message and about the GGA alliance.
She stood forward and began a short speech “Within the next few hours Europe will have changed – changed for the better. With the advancements and takeover of the formal rebel Yugoslavian States and Kingdom of Erstereich the GGA and WEF have shown there determination to make Europe united under one cause, friends and co-operative countries. So, from this day forth we shall be close allies with the GGA, arguably the closest allies in the world – as we shall sign a mutual defence act today to cement our alliance - the European Power Mutual Defence Pact (EPMDP). We, as the two most powerful alliances of Europe shall show we will support each other to protect our interests, and improve our nations economically, military wise and environmentally in this troubled world. Long may this alliance stay strong and together.” And with that she left the podium, and a small parade started up, a series of claps, and trumpets began to play.
Commissioner French HQ, Paris, 16:27pm
The ceremony had gone well, and Mrs. Harding now lead a still quiet Richtoff towards the Commission meeting room, where two hundred Commissioners of the government would watch them as they prepared to sign the treaty which would effectively make them bound as allies. Though, firstly she needed to talk to him about urgent matters of the world today – current affairs, the recent wars, and finally some more strange but worrying news.
She opened a door and asked Richtoff to enter a small room, that had two chairs pulled together, a dim light and wooden walls that were expensive and made the décor reasonable. It was in this room that looked like an interrogation chamber she’d talk to him, whilst two guards stood outside. She gestured for him to sit down and began to talk.
“Well, it’s been so rushed I’ve barely had time to speak to you at all, so firstly, welcome to the WEF Mr. Richtoff.” She smiled warmly and carried on “As you can see across this side of the border things are booming, the economy is only improving, though obviously the wars recently have taken there toll, and we have had to inject billions into creating an economic haven for Morocco and our newly required Yugoslavian states.”
“Firstly, please tell us more about what is happening in the GGA, and ask me any questions you wish to know about the WEF – how are the military operations going? I’ve always been interested in the structure of your government and how you’d define your country, of course we must get to know each others places before we continue our relations to this extent.”
Richtoff was about to speak, and a shady man walked in. Usually Mrs. Harding would have had him fired just for doing that, but the document in his hands was needed now, and was very important. She took it from him and rested it on her knee – that was for later.
