"We are gathered today to discuss the future of our nations!" Sir Gregory (the English PM), "To discuss the future of our world! Of planet earth!" Hundreds of countries' heads of state sat in the gigantic room. The whole world. "We are in a time of crisis! And we have only been let down by our ancestors. Through the partnerships we had we ended world poverty! We finished the war on terrorism! And the last war was 60 years ago! We achieved many of our goals and with that our countries slackened off! We stopped doing our duties properly. The world was good. And soon every country was for itself and itself only. Poverty in countries began again terrorism is on the verge of starting. And wars are unthinkable. One war could destroy everything. When 'the light' was found we saw it as a way to bring back unity. But once this tragedy had happen everyone panicked we fled and hid. I urge you to join Great Britain and Northern Ireland in creating the United Nations of Asia, Africa, North America, South America and Europe!"

The vast wasteland of the countryside lay out before them. A brown and grey, barren land. It was rotting and decaying. All the unwanted things of their ancestors. Gases of a poisonous nature exploded out of large crevasses that formed valleys and volcanoes. As Sally looked at the vast landscape she had a sudden longing to be back in a city. Back where there were air homes floating at the peaks of sky scrapers. Where the transportation was Bugs rather than this huge contraption she sat in. She much preferred the small vehicles whizzing around on their small tracks. "Did you hear that?" Kevin asked leaving no time for an answer, "that was the ship changing from fuel to magnetic repulsion." Sally ignored the young lad too transfixed on her worries about Sam, and more than him, her self. "We are heading to Birmingham everyone. There is a scientist there that has evidence on where the light may be hidden." it came over the intercom. "I don't like how secretive what we are doing is."Jamie said, "this doesn't seem right." Then there was a loud siren sound. "THIS IS THE USA FLAGSHIP! MOVE YOUR COURSE 45 DEGEES EASTERLY OR WE WILL HAVE TO FIND OTHER MEANS OF PASSING!" at that point a large missile launcher revealed itself. "DO YOU KNOW WHO YOU ARE TALKING TO?! THIS IS HIS MAJESTY THE KINGS FLAGSHIP! YOU DIVERT YOUR COURSE 45 DEGREES SOUTH OR WE WILL HAVE TI USE ITHER MEANS OF PASSING!" the British ship then revealed it's own guns.

After hours of convocation countries started to join up. The USA began, "This of course would mean that we would search for 'the light' together? And since Russia is the only country that isn't here and it was discussed earlier that they were a threat, would war be foreseeable?" "yes we would search for 'the light' together. And I believe that with the right tactical movements then we could prevent war from happening."

Bullets flew everywhere. Bombs were thrown. Missiles launched. Both ships dealt heavy blows. The battle was on. Men manned the plasma cannons. Huge rats of light heated up and destroyed vital areas of both ships.

"Well then, in that, we, the United States of America are in"
* * *
There was a huge explosion and the US ship fell in a ball of fire. They sat down heavy and exhausted from their battle. Then came a fuzzy voice in a radio, "Whatever you do, don't shoot down any US ships. I repeat do NOT shoot down any US ships."
