BEEP BEEP BEEP BEEP
Kurt managed to pull himself out of bed as he hit the alarm button on his clock. He sat on the edge of his bed for a second, engrossed in thought. Today was the day he had been waiting for ever since he had walked through the hallways of the Congress building. The day where a new German America would be born.
After getting out of the shower and putting on his standard tie and suit, Kurt grabbed a bit of breakfast. The nerves were setting in. He wasn't ready for it. After forcing down a breakfast sausage and some coffee, Kurt tried composing himself. Unfortunately, just as he was about to leave his condo, he disposed of his breakfast in the kitchen sink.
In the limo on the way to Congress, Kurt had to settle himself down. He breathed in and out a couple of times, focusing on his slowing heart rate. The key to the plan was for him to look surprised and not give away his emotions. To blend in. Kurt noticed the security was much tighter around the Congress today with the President around. He felt a pang of worry, but pushed it to the back of his head. He had to focus on his part in the plan.
Inside the National Congress Building
Kurt, along with the rest of the senators, stood up with a standing ovation to welcome the President, Johann Kruger. He smiled wide and waved to the crowd. He was graying by the day, looking very old for 58. He waved to the crowd and bent in to the mic.
"Good Senators, it is great to see you today! I always relish the opportunity to come before you and discuss legislation, and how to make our country better."
As he said this, a man streaked down the aisle of the Senator's seating. He held a pistol with a silencer on the end. He was the specialist. Everything was going according to plan.
"GOTT MIT UNS!" The man yelled as he pulled the trigger three times. The President fell behind the podium. Screams pierced the air. The sun was rising on a new age in German America.
