Today was like any other day. The parents went to work, The children went to school, and the grandparents enjoyed their retirement. Everything was normal for Justin. He just got out of school for the summer and was heading home. He passed the busy roads on his bike. He gets closer to the Hydrarian District Cathedral when it happens. The speakers around the city make a loud noise, signaling everyone to stop what their doing and listen.

"It is with a heavy heart and great grief that...".
There is a long pause, most likely because the announcer is crying.
"Our great Emperor Andy Hydraria... has died!"
Justin is shocked. How could he die so young?

"He died earlier this morning due to Oldus Parcitses or Old Curse disease." continued the announcer. "As of now, The Regency Council will replace him until further notice."

Justin can't believe it. It actually happened. He died, the Emperor actually died.

"A date has been set for his funeral and Invations has been sent to all the nations of the North Pacific. The Emperor will always be remembered, Lang lebe der Kaiser!"

It is fine my friend.. Love being in northern Scovia. Reminds me of my country.
 
The bells of the cathedral ring. Two men walk over to the coffin of the Emperor and open it. Another man opens the door. The guest pour in. There are a lot of people attending, like President Citrus Maximus of the United States of Aldion, the Emperor's good friend Emperor Kleon Cuthlion of The Dimensional Empire of Kerianthe, and a lot of distant relatives. Once the guests are seated the organ music in the background stops.

The announcer stands in front of the podium and says:

"I am honored to present, Crown Princess and Future Empress, Sidney Hydraria!"

The crowd cheered and clapped, but there was confusion. Everyone thought that Prince Vindican would be the next monarch, and no one knew who Sidney was.

"My father was a great man. He lead our forces to battle, he united a broken nation, and he help end the oppressive Tarkinist regime!" The crowd claps again. "But sadly, he has died due to a pathetic diease. Now I shall take command of the Empire! I will bring it to a new age of peace, prosperity, and order!" Like before, the crowd claps and cheers.

"Now please welcome, Emperor Kleon Cuthlion, my father's good friend."

As the crowd cheered as I walked up to the podium on the stage, I remembered how good a friend Andy had been and how beneficial of an ally he was. Our alliance had grown stronger because of our willing to work together and form a defensive back to protect each other and our allies. When I reached the podium I spoke clearly saying, "Thank you Empress. It is an honor to be here in the capital of the Northern Scovian Empire. I look forward to working with your new Empress and growing our to civilizations closer together and forming stronger bonds between us." As I took a small pause the audience started clapping again and also cheering quite loudly. "As we look forward to the future, we will use the example your leader and my friend and ally, Andy Hydraria, set for all of us. Let us celebrate his life now. And use his examples he left us to better ourselves and our civilization. For we stand united as brothers' in arms and allies. Thank you."
As I walked off the podium I could see my wife off in the distance smiling back at me. The crowd now cheering and clapping louder than at the beginning of the event. As I was returning to my seat I was told by one of the royal guards that I am being requested by the Empress after the event. I nodded to acknowledge what he had said and returned to my seat in time to see the empress come back on to the stage.
 
"Thank You Emperor Cuthlion." said Sidney. "I would like to thank all of you for coming!"
The crowd clapped for the last time while Sidney left the stage. She walks outside and gets into her personal limousine. She has prepared a royal diner for all of the leaders that attended the funeral.

She arrives at the palace and her guards escort her to the Dining Hall. She sits down in the chair at the end of the long table. Now she awaits the other leaders.
 
I enter the dining hall with my wife and royal guards and proceed to find a seat at the table while waiting for the other leaders to arrive.
 
He can't believe this! His own sister betrayed him. He was suppose to be the next emperor! He sits in his room, staring out of the window. He is currently locked in his room until the ceremony is officially over. He can't wait until it's over, because he has a few words for his sister.

*****************************************************************


Sidney watches as Emperor and Empress Cuthlion sits down on the opposite side of the table. His royal guards stand behind, scanning the hall making sure nothing harms their emperor. She wished she had more guards like that. Only 2 of them today have pledge absolute allegiance to her. The other ones prefer to wait.

No one expected her to access to the throne, not even half the nation knew who she was. Her father hid her from the public. He never loved her, and she never loved him. That's why when she turned 16, he sent her to New Glasgow to live with her Grandma. She hated him and was glad when the news of his death came to New Glasgow.

She smiles at the Cuthlions. "So what would you like to discuss first?"
 
As my wife and I sat there eating our food, I responded with, "Well how about how we can better our alliance together. Maybe some other things to if we have time."
 
"Well doing more joint military exercises would be a good idea, my lady. Also maybe opening more trade between our empires." Looking behind me I notice someone lurking in the shadows. "I know you are there. Come out and show yourself."
