(OOC: This will be a short story to celebrate my nation hitting the 4 billion mark! I haven't hit it yet but in a short matter of time, I will have officially hit the mark, please hold off on external comments till the actual "birth")

It was miday in the countryside of Kurona.
Ausha McKnight 9 months pregnate was doing light work around the farm. She didn't want to jepordize the baby. Her baby was to be really special, the baby would mark the 4 billionth Kuronan. She was one of only two simple humble civilans to hold such a monumental mark. The 500,000 mark was achived by the birth of a boy into an aristocratic family. The 1 million, the wife of the Speaker of the Royal Cabinate gave birth to another boy, and so on and so forth. The last significant was the birth of twin girls making the mark shoot up. Now here she was. A fanciful carriage strolled down the dusty road, and right onto the farm. Ausha and her husband Arthur were confused and facinated. Who should step out other than Her Majesty, Princess Tomoyo Mikanu the ruler of the land. "Your Highness!" They both bowed. "What brings you here milady?" Arthur asked.

Tomoyo was dressed in more plain clothes. She also had another older woman with her as well as her maidservant Kiko, who had a machine gun strapped to her back. It made the McKnights a bit nervouse.

"You are giving birth to our 4 billionth citizen." Tomoyo said "I must be here. I brought one of the finest Midwifes in the nation."

Both had quizical looks.

"Or unless you would prefer a Doctor I can summon one and pay his fee right away."

"No-no, your Majesty." Ausha said. "I was perfering a midwife."

"Are you sure? I know most would prefer Midwifes because doctors are more costly, if it's an issue of cost I can take care of it."

"No, your Highness" Ausha said "I really much prefer a midwife."

"If you insist then. This is a wonderful farm one of many of Kurona's finest."

"Well you certianlly helped your Highness. Your legislation to help with your tax break and well..."

"No need to thank me."

"but you deserve it Your Grace." Arthur said.

"Please call me Tomoyo, were in a casual setting."

There was a sudden clap of Thunder (http://www.hollywoodlostandfound.net/sound/castlethunder.html) as the sky began to darken. Kiko took out an umbrella. "Well it looks as though it's about to Storm. Let's go inside."
