The King of Aederland is pronounced dead.
His first born son, Karl, rightful heir to the throne of Aederland is abroad, leading Aederlands Armed Forces against against rogue nations.
His second born son, Michael, with the advice of his ministers has taken this opportunity to seize the throne for himself, self proclaiming himself as king, and stating that any soldier that does not swear allegiance to him is be named an outlaw and to be punished.
4:00pm
At a state school in Aederland:
"John! John! Come quickly". Alex quickly yanked John away from his lunch and raced him into a classroom where some students and teachers had gathered around a small T.V.
"Whats goi-" "Shhh! Look"
They were watching an emergency news broadcast stating that 3,000 traitors were to be executed in the City Square this afternoon.
"So?" John said. Executions were routine in Aederland, he wondered what made this one any different.
"Look, there!" Alex shouted, making john refocus his attention to what was behind the reporter.
These were no ordinary criminals to be executed. The shackled men all had numbers tattooed below their left eye. They were soldiers.
The camera panned along showing row, upon row, of headshaven, beaten scared men all in ragged prisoners uniforms.
Then one soldier inperticular caught his attention. One that looked older than the others, a proud face but weathered by wrinkles and a few scars. He was looking down at the ground, a tear drop falling from his icy blue eyes.
"Wha- how?" Fear struck Johns stomach like a knife. He looked blankly at the screen, eyes jittering at the image in disbelief.
It was his father.
A veteran and a hero of 3 of Aederlands major wars. Johns only remaining parent.
A the camera focused on a Royal Aeder Messenger who stood up and proclaimed:

A state of emergency has been declared.
~The right to gather in numbers - Denied
~The right to bear arms - Denied
~The right to Freedom of Speech - Denied
~The right to a Trail - Denied

~A Curfew is now in effect at 7:00pm-9:00am Every day untill further notice.
Any unauthorized person detained during curfew hours will be executed immediately.
By Order of the King
You before us now are traitors of the Aeder people and are hereby outlaws.
You are to be hung by the neck untill dead. May God have mercy on your souls.

John watched, crying uncontrollably at the sight of his father being led to a huge line of gallows along with 100 other prisoners. There was a huge hush from the room, as the lever was pulled. The hush was interrupted by the 'crackling' sound of necks snapping, shortly followed by the shriek of women and the gurgles of the unlucky prisoners that weren't killed instantly by the drop.
Johns head sunk into his hands.
