Chapter 1: Rights
The date is January 30,2118 and President George Carver has just recently completed his first year in office.
To tout his accomplishments and set his agenda for the new year, he holds a State of Union Address.
President George Carver enters the House of Representatives chamber to a raucous ovation.
He shakes hands with several congressmen and congresswomen before making his way to the podium.
"The State of the Union is strong!" Carver emphatically proclaims.
As the chamber erupts into cheers.
"Since my inauguration in 2117,the United States has seen a sharp decline in gun violence and hate crimes.
This is due to my Administrations implemented policies that effectively eliminated the first and second amendment.
No longer does the American citizen have to live in fear of a mass shooter walking up in their place of worship or learning and killing them senselessly.
No longer does the American citizen have to worry about being offended by the words of other individuals.
The right to bear arms is no more. Saying words that offend any particular race, gender, religion, or sexuality is now illegal and is classified as a hate crime.
My administration has rewritten the history books and have made it clear that hate and intolerance will no longer be tolerated in the greatest country in the world.
As a government, it is our responsibility to lookout for the best interests of every citizen and that is what we are doing. Citizens don't need guns when they have an armed government willing to protect them at all cost. Citizens don't need freedom of speech because all that means is freedom to hurt, ostracize, and threaten the next man over minor differences. Citizens don't need rights when they have a smart government that knows what is right and what is best for them." Carver said. The sounds of claps, whistles, and the feeling of happiness emanate throughout the air and linger like a strong odor. As President Carver delivers his State of the Union speech with fire and conviction.
President Carver looking reserved and confident then opens his mouth to finish off his speech, but nothing comes out. For a moment, it seems like he has been frozen in time. Carver's smile quickly transforms into a blank look. Carver then states the following, "All lies. I'm feeding you all lies. They're trying to destroy everything this country was built on. I'm not your leader. I'm just a vehicle tasked to transport propaganda into the minds of those susceptible to manipulation. This...." Before he could finish, several policemen rush the stage and drag him away as Carver hysterically screams "All lies" repeatedly. While all of this is going on, the entire chamber sits in silence with a shocked look painted on their faces.
Chapter 2: Thought Police
President Carver is handcuffed and shoved into the back of a police car. He is then driven to a nearby prison camp. The policemen drag President Carver out of the car and take him into a secluded room inside the building. Once inside the room, President Carver is thrown to the floor. Next the police chief walks in and starts an interrogation. "Have you lost your damn mind." said the police chief. "Fuck you. I did what was right. Now the American people know the truth. "President Carver said. The police chief starts laughing hysterically. "You should have stuck to the script. Now you're going to suffer. said the police chief. "You don't scare me. I'm on the right side of history. No matter what you do to me the truth has already been exposed. "President Carver said. "You see that is where you are wrong Mr. President. Your problem is you let the presidency go to your head. You are not irreplaceable. All I have to do is tell the media you had a mental breakdown and have Vice President Johnson take your spot. Meanwhile, you will stay in here for the rest of your life and never see your wife or kids again. But, there is still time for you to make this right. If you apologize to the American people for your actions on national television, we can let this all go. We will still have to impeach you, but you will be a free man. So what's it going to be Mr. President?" Said the police chief. "HELL NO I'M DONE BEING YOUR PUPPET!!!!!" President Carver Screams. "Fine have it your way then." Said the police chief. The chief punches Carver in the face, knocking him unconscious in the process.
The next morning Carver wakes up to two men staring at him. Carver jumps up and soon realizes he is in a prison cell. "From President to prisoner. Oh how the mighty have fallen." the first inmate said. "Don't be so hard on him Kevin. He tried to rectify the situation, that is why he is in here with us now." Said the second inmate. "Shut up Rotimi. This guy's policies are the reason we are on here. I'm going to kill this bastard." Kevin said. He then proceeds to put his hands around the throat of Carver and starts choking him, but Rotimi quickly intervenes by pulling Kevin off of him and pleading with him to "calm down". Kevin then sits in the corner and starts crying. "I'm sorry about that. He has a hard time controlling his emotions. My name is Rotimi by the way." Said the inmate. Rotimi then extends his hand out to Carver. Carver hesitates for a second then accepts the handshake. Next, an armed prison guard approaches the cell and yells "TIME TO EAT BITCHES!!!" Prison guards quickly fill up the hallways to remove the prisoners from their cells. The inmates are lined up then lead to the cafeteria.
Chapter 3: Confinement
The guards direct all the inmates at the cafeteria to receive their food. Each prisoner gets a greenish slop poured on their tray and a cup of water before sitting down at one of the tables. After receiving his tray, Carver opts to occupy a vacant table to the left of where his two cellmates are sitting. "Come sit with us man." Rotimi insists. Carver reluctantly gets up and sits at the table with Kevin and Rotimi. "So how does the so called leader of the free world end up in a place like this?" Kevin asks with a stern look on his face. "I got tired. It's as simple as that. One day I woke up and said enough is enough. I was sick of putting on a facade for the public and pushing an agenda I knew was detrimental to American Society. So when I gave my State of the Union speech last night I flipped the script and told the truth to everyone watching. As a result, they dragged from my podium and threw me in here with you guys. If you don't mind me asking, how did you guys end up in a horrible place like this?" Carver said. "Ironically I'm in here because of your policies Mr. President. I had a YouTube channel that was dedicated to exposing corrupt politicians like you. But since your administration abolished the first amendment, I got separated from my family and sentenced to life in prison. The only thing keeping me from reaching across this table and whooping your ass again is Rotimi. He says I need to release my anger through more productive methods. So instead of beating you to a bloody pulp, I'm going to take a deep breath and meditate. " Kevin said. "All I can say is I'm sorry and I will spend the rest of my life trying to rectify this situation." Carver said. "Fuck you." Kevin says in a tone drenched in defiance. "The way I ended up in here was gun possession. Last year, the police stopped me and found a pistol under the driver's seat, so they hauled me off to jail and sentenced me to 10 years in prison." Rotimi said. Once again man I'm so sorry. I mean that from the bottom of my heart. You have to believe me." Carver said. "I forgive you. It's water under the bridge now. You recognize the error in your ways and your trying to improve as a person. That is all we can ask for. Isn't that right Kevin?" Rotimi said. Shut up Rotimi don't you see me trying to meditate right now? "Kevin said with both eyes close. "I'm going to figure out a way to get us out of here. I just need you guys to trust me." Carver said. Before Rotimi or Kevin could respond, the security guards scream "DINNER TIME IS OVER EVERYBODY LINE UP!!!!!"
Chapter 4: Generation
Rotimi, Kevin, and Carver are lead back to their cells. Once the cell door shuts, Carver whispers "We must start planning our escape. First, we must create a diversion. Second, we must neutralize the threat. Third, we turn their weapons against them." Carver said. "Count me out. If you can't execute running this country properly, why should we believe you can effectively pull off an elaborate prison escape?" Kevin said. "I think we should give his plan a shot Kevin. What do we have to lose?" Rotimi states vehemently. "WE HAVE OUR LIVES TO LOSE YOU IDIOT!!!!"Kevin screams. "Listen, I have three beautiful daughters and a wife that visits me every Friday. Do you know how it would make them feel if I got killed in here? It's bad enough I'm stuck in this hell hole for the rest of my life, my death would be too much for them to handle. So fuck you and your plan. I want no parts of it." Kevin said. "Give me one chance man. I don't care if you hate me or love me, just trust me this one time. The fate of our country is hanging in the balance. If we don't break out of here and lead the charge against this oppressive regime, the vision laid out by the founding fathers will be destroyed for several generations to come. This is bigger than us dude. You have to believe me. If this plan doesn't work, I'm giving you license to whip my ass. Do we have a deal? "Carver said. Carver then extends his hand to Kevin, but is left hanging for several seconds as his cellmate contemplates his decision. Finally, Kevin decides to shake Carver's hand. "Fine I will go along with your plan. But if shit goes awry, I'm breaking every bone in your scrawny body." Kevin said. "Sounds great. Let's get started." Carver said.
Under the direction of Carver, Rotimi falls to the ground and feigns chest pain while screaming in agony. This draws 5 security guards to the cell. "He needs medical attention I think he's having a heart attack." Carver said with a concerned tone. One of the officers unlocks the cell door and is soon greeted with a sucker punch from Kevin. Then Kevin quickly takes the officer's gun and shoots all five men in quick succession. The three men grabbed the guns of the fallen officers and run towards an exit while thousands of inmates cheer them on from the confines of their cells. Once at the exit, the three fugitives come face to face with 10 armed officers commanding them to drop the weapons. Kevin and Carver comply to the officer's demands and are subsequently put in handcuffs as Rotimi stands back and watches. Both Kevin and Carver look back at Rotimi with puzzled looks on their faces.
Chapter 5: Government
The officers take Carver and Kevin to a secluded room inside the prison where they're greeted by a group of armed men. Rotimi then enters the room and Kevin immediately lunges at him, but he is quickly subdued by several men. While Kevin is being held down, Rotimi kicks him in the head, which lives him dazed. "Why are you doing this?" Carver asks. "Its my job nothing personal. You really thought I was your friend? Nope. I was sent here to do undercover work. My job was to infiltrate the prison community and quell any type of rebellion. Things were going smoothly until you showed up and you almost got away it. But enough chit chat, let's get this over with. Any last words before we kill you?" Rotimi said. "You don't have to do this." Carver pleaded. You see that's where you wrong. We actually do have to do this. We don't want your rebellious attitude to rubbing off on the other inmates. We can't afford an uprising at this point. Too much work has been put into this agenda. Shoot now officers." Rotimi commanded. As several men aimed their weapons at the two men, Carver and Kevin closed their eyes fearing a death at any moment. The sound of gunfire rang throughout the room as both men were shaking in fear. But after several seconds went by, the two men opened their eyes to see Rotimi's body riddled with bullet holes. "What the fuck?" Kevin said with a bewildered facial expression.
Chapter 6: Plan
The armed men freed Kevin and Carver from their handcuffs and rushed them out of the room. "Where the hell our we going?" Kevin asked. "We will explain when we get to our destination." One of the armed men said. Kevin and Carver are then lead out of the prison and put in the back of a police truck. They are driven a few miles away from the prison to a big white house. Once Kevin and Carver are inside the house, they are directed to sit down on the couch in the living room. After both men are seated on the couch, one of the armed men give a long awaited explanation for the events that preceded this moment. "So let's cut to the chase, we need you and you need us. Since the turn of the century, we all noticed this country was going in the wrong direction with big government and over regulation. Then when you became president Mr. Carver the degradation of our nation was accelerated with several over reaching policies being implemented. But, we stood silent all this time until you gave your State of the Union address. When we saw you go off script and buck the system, that inspired us all to wage war against this corrupt government. So we've been stockpiling weapons and planning a rebellion for the last few days. We even got some armed citizens for back up. Now the next phase is for us to invade the White House and get your corrupt Vice President Tom Johnson out of the Oval Office and restore order in this country. So are you with us or not?" One of the armed men said. "We are with you." Carver replied. "You don't speak for me asshole, but yeah I'm with you" Kevin said. "Great. Let's get going guys. The revolution starts now." The armed man said.
Chapter 7: Invasion
The armed men give Kevin and Carver machine guns and then they are out the door. Once the law enforcement vehicles are near the White House, they crash through the gate and hop out with a wide array of high powered weaponry. As expected the vigilantes were greeted by several members of the secret service, but with Kevin and Carver leading the charge, the opposition was plowed down with relative ease as bullets flew through the air. After leaving a bloody scene on the White House lawn, the men breach the parameters of the building and quickly encounter a maid. "WHERE IS THE VICE PRESIDENT?" Kevin screams. "In the dining room." The visibly shaken maid responds. "The dining room is down this hall on the right follow me." Carver said. Carver leads the armed me to the dining room where President Tom Johnson is sitting with his wife and two sons. "Dinner time is over Mr. President. We have some business to take care of." Carver said.
A shaking and nervous Tom Johnson gives a speech live from the Oval Office and states the following: "Dear fellow Americans, it has been an honor serving as your Commander and Chief, but now the time has come from me to step down and hand power back to the Honorable John Carver." The armed men stand behind the camera then ordered Tom Johnson out of the chair, so John Carver can deliver his diatribe. "Attention citizens of the United States of America. You no longer have to live under strict government regulation. With help of Congress, we are going to right the wrongs that were admittedly perpetuated by my administration. Also, we are." Before Carver could finish his sentence, a hundred policemen being lead by a man wearing a black and white tuxedo barge in the room. "This was very cute Carver. Now the game is over. You should have stuck to the script and pushed the agenda we agreed on. Now there is no escaping the consequences. Drop your weapons or these fine policemen will have no problem shooting and killing your asses." The man in the tuxedo said. The armed men quickly complied with the man's orders and were all lead out of the Oval Office in handcuffs. Once the handcuffed vigilantes were taken outside of the White House, they come in contact with a sea of armed citizens standing on the lawn.
Chapter 8: Escape
The policemen are stunned to see hundreds of citizens blocking their way. "Move out the way before I have all of you arrested." The man in the tuxedo said. The crowd ignored the man's orders and stood there silence. "Okay I'm going to say this one last time. Either you guys move the fuck out of the way or you all will spend the night in jail." The man in the tuxedo said. "We will move out of the way when you let these men go free. If not, we are going to war. The transfer of power can be civil or uncivil. The choice is yours." One of the armed citizens stated. "I don't have time for this. Officers arrest these thugs." The man in the tuxedo said. Soon after the command, the citizens start firing shots and the officers respond back with their own firepower. As chaos erupts on the law of the White House, Carver and Kevin find away to escape the terror and go back inside the White House.
Chapter 9: War of Worlds
The police officers put up a valiant effort, but are ultimately overwhelmed by the sheer number of citizens they are fighting against. At the end of the battle, the man in the tuxedo is left on his knees begging for his life with several citizens surrounding him. "Please don't kill me. I will do anything you want." The man in the tuxedo said. "GET THE FUCK OUT OF HERE!!!!"One of the citizens screamed. The man in the tuxedo wasted no time getting up and running away from the scene. The armed citizens then enter the White House and locate Carver and Kevin sitting in the hallway in handcuffs. The two men are let out of their handcuffs by the armed citizens. "Are you okay Mr. President?" One of the citizens asks. "I'm fine." Carver replies. Carver and Kevin have a brief stare down before Kevin breaks his silence. "Listen, I still don't like you, but I respect you." Kevin said with a stern look on his face. "I love you too Kev." Carver said with a smile on his face. The two men then shake hands and go their separate ways.
Chapter 10: Inauguration
The date is January 20,2120 and President Carver has just won his re-election by a landslide, so at his Inauguration he gives a speech that both touts his accomplishments and recounts the turbulent events that lead to this moment.
"I stand before you all a changed man. The last two years have been the most pivotal stage of my presidency. I was forced out of office, sent to prison, escaped out of prison, and now I'm back where I started. When I first got elected, I wasn't looking out for the best interest of the American people. I was being controlled by corporate entities that only cared about generating profits. But one day I woke up and realized it was time to make a change before it was too late, so I risked my life and family to save future generations. Over the last two years, my administration with the help of the great people in Congress have restored the First and Second Amendments of the Constitution. Now the next step on our agenda is ensuring that these rights are protected for several generations to come. We must keep fighting the good fight and pushing back on anybody or any group that threatens the values of this country. A lot of blood shed and sacrifices have lead us to this moment, so it is imperative that we learn from history and agree to never repeat it. So to all the people in this audience and all the people watching at home, you are not alone. No matter your race, religion, party, or wealth, we are all Americans and we're in this together. Through the ups and downs I will be fighting side to side with each American as we progress through this journey we call life. God bless you all and God bless America." Carver said. The crowd erupts into applause as news reporters label this moment as the commencement of a new era in the United States of America.

To tout his accomplishments and set his agenda for the new year, he holds a State of Union Address.

The armed men stand behind the camera then ordered Tom Johnson out of the chair, so John Carver can deliver his diatribe. "Attention citizens of the United States of America. You no longer have to live under strict government regulation. With help of Congress, we are going to right the wrongs that were admittedly perpetuated by my administration. Also, we are." Before Carver could finish his sentence, a hundred policemen being lead by a man wearing a black and white tuxedo barge in the room. "This was very cute Carver. Now the game is over. You should have stuck to the script and pushed the agenda we agreed on. Now there is no escaping the consequences. Drop your weapons or these fine policemen will have no problem shooting and killing your asses." The man in the tuxedo said. The armed men quickly complied with the man's orders and were all lead out of the Oval Office in handcuffs. Once the handcuffed vigilantes were taken outside of the White House, they come in contact with a sea of armed citizens standing on the lawn.
Chapter 8: Escape
The policemen are stunned to see hundreds of citizens blocking their way. "Move out the way before I have all of you arrested." The man in the tuxedo said. The crowd ignored the man's orders and stood there silence. "Okay I'm going to say this one last time. Either you guys move the fuck out of the way or you all will spend the night in jail." The man in the tuxedo said. "We will move out of the way when you let these men go free. If not, we are going to war. The transfer of power can be civil or uncivil. The choice is yours." One of the armed citizens stated. "I don't have time for this. Officers arrest these thugs." The man in the tuxedo said. Soon after the command, the citizens start firing shots and the officers respond back with their own firepower. As chaos erupts on the law of the White House, Carver and Kevin find away to escape the terror and go back inside the White House.
Chapter 9: War of Worlds
The police officers put up a valiant effort, but are ultimately overwhelmed by the sheer number of citizens they are fighting against. At the end of the battle, the man in the tuxedo is left on his knees begging for his life with several citizens surrounding him. "Please don't kill me. I will do anything you want." The man in the tuxedo said. "GET THE FUCK OUT OF HERE!!!!"One of the citizens screamed. The man in the tuxedo wasted no time getting up and running away from the scene. The armed citizens then enter the White House and locate Carver and Kevin sitting in the hallway in handcuffs. The two men are let out of their handcuffs by the armed citizens. "Are you okay Mr. President?" One of the citizens asks. "I'm fine." Carver replies. Carver and Kevin have a brief stare down before Kevin breaks his silence. "Listen, I still don't like you, but I respect you." Kevin said with a stern look on his face. "I love you too Kev." Carver said with a smile on his face. The two men then shake hands and go their separate ways.
Chapter 10: Inauguration
The date is January 20,2120 and President Carver has just won his re-election by a landslide, so at his Inauguration he gives a speech that both touts his accomplishments and recounts the turbulent events that lead to this moment.
"I stand before you all a changed man. The last two years have been the most pivotal stage of my presidency. I was forced out of office, sent to prison, escaped out of prison, and now I'm back where I started. When I first got elected, I wasn't looking out for the best interest of the American people. I was being controlled by corporate entities that only cared about generating profits. But one day I woke up and realized it was time to make a change before it was too late, so I risked my life and family to save future generations. Over the last two years, my administration with the help of the great people in Congress have restored the First and Second Amendments of the Constitution. Now the next step on our agenda is ensuring that these rights are protected for several generations to come. We must keep fighting the good fight and pushing back on anybody or any group that threatens the values of this country. A lot of blood shed and sacrifices have lead us to this moment, so it is imperative that we learn from history and agree to never repeat it. So to all the people in this audience and all the people watching at home, you are not alone. No matter your race, religion, party, or wealth, we are all Americans and we're in this together. Through the ups and downs I will be fighting side to side with each American as we progress through this journey we call life. God bless you all and God bless America." Carver said. The crowd erupts into applause as news reporters label this moment as the commencement of a new era in the United States of America.
