True Romans

By Silvio Santini

Impeccably groomed intruders breach security and interrupt a secret meeting at the Pentagon. They render the President unconscious, but treat the generals with respect. Attempts at resistance prove futile. Octavius, the leader of the intruders, begins a long, detailed presentation, complete with amazing holograms. He claims to represent an empire that has been surreptitiously observing the human race for many years and will now establish dominion on Earth. He proves they are closely monitoring all United States military operations, and provides them with a detailed look at their advanced technology and powerful military. As the meeting progresses, some of the generals begin to grow sympathetic towards Octavius, but others start to bristle. "Listen to me, whoever you really are. I don't believe you, nor do I accept anything you are saying. I know you are a liar." Eventually, they become more convinced that the power of the intruders is real and some of them attempt to negotiate a special deal for the United States. Octavius is unimpressed. "The political system in the United States, the beacon of the world according to some of you, is hopelessly divided and the conflict is becoming increasingly violent. You are much closer to another civil war than you realize." The tension builds and the generals become overwhelmed with a sense of foreboding. Could this be some kind of elaborate hoax, or does the fate of the world hang in the balance?
