The sun was shining and it seemed to be a wonderful day. The country of Emmeria had seen no problems even after the Ulysses 1994XF04 Asteroid. To the people on the Emmerian side all they had seen was shooting stars as it passed over them and landed in the neighboring country of Estovokia. They had gotten it much worse with a high death toll, their government collapsing and falling to a military government. Had the Emmerian government aided the creation of the Stonehenge project then perhaps things might of turned out differently.

Back In Gracemeria the day seemed like any other day, good weather forecasted for the day and nothing seemed to be of any trouble to a small little farm outside the city limits of Gracemeria. Suddenly rockets flew over head before dissapearing over the horizon where the city would be after a few minutes someone had come out side shouting. "The Bridge, They took out King's Bridge!" It wasn't long until tanks and troop carriers started to roll down the road. Toscha got out of the jeep and looked around as he checked his rifle. "Spread out, get those people back inside." The other soldiers nodded and started to crowd the people back into their houses. Toscha nodded and laughed abit. "Soon Gracemeria will be ours."

Saturday, now there was a day that could never be ignored. A day where you didn't have people bickering at you and no work to do. Just laze about and enjoy the day as it slowly went by. Plus the fact that it had now become summer only made this Saturday even better. In the Leto's darkened room the soft sounds of dog's feet were softly heard plotting on the floor before jumping into his master's bed and licking Leto on the face. "All right all right im up, gah!" He sighed and yawned and stretched before sitting up and throwing the blankets off of him and onto the bed. "All right Shadow lets get you some food." He smiled and ran his hands over the husky's muzzle and pulled on his p.j pants and a white tee-shirt. Leto knew he had to get up and at least start the days chores, feed the animals and then he could relax.
 
Unlike her children, Dawn never really got a day off. As a single mother she always had some thing to do, children to feed, animals to care for, a home to maintain. Inevitably her precious children would argue and she'd have to settle that as well. Now she stood in the kitchen already mostly through cooking breakfast for her family. So far scrambled eggs and toast had been set out on the table and she was finishing up sausage. She still wore her sleeping clothes, a baggy grey t-shirt (that once belonged to her husband) and shorts, covered with a long white robe. Her hair was twisted into a loose bun.

Arianna had already been up for quite some time. She preferred for people to always see her looking her best and so rose early to dress and apply make up before she saw anyone. It wasn't that she was vain, she just didn't want people to think badly of her. She dressed for the warm summer day in a simple white sun dress and sandals. After pulling her hair back in a ponytail Arianna headed down stairs and greeted her mother with a kiss on the cheek. "Good morning, Mom." "Good morning, darling." Dawn smiled brightly.

Ellie woke up slowly. She wasn't really a morning person. She grimaced as a crack of sunlight slanted into her eyes. With a soft groan she rolled to the edge of her bed and sat up. Rubbing her eyes with both hands she headed for her bedroom door. Ellie hoped she'd see Leto in the hall first thing in the morning. Her brother could usually get her into a much better mood, when she was in a slump, which was most of the time. Otherwise she would go straight down to breakfast, still in her long pajama pants and t-shirt.
 
Toscha looked at the road map then to his driver. "Up there along the hill, a small house, Lets go and see just who is living up there. The soldiers nodded and some got back into their jeep. Toscha got back in and they drove up the road. He checked his watch for a second before sitting back and enjoying the ride noticing the people mostly obeying orders from the Estovokian soldiers. The Jeep pulled up and the soldiers got out. He made a motion with his hand for his soldiers to wait outside. Some of them looked at Toscha while others walked around the house. Toscha waited outside and watched his soldiers. He turned down his radio for a second as it was starting to bother him. He walked up to the door and knocked on it. It was true that the enemy was on their front doorstep.

Leto then thought about it for a second before sneaking up behind Ellie and giving her rear a playful smack before rushing off and going to deal with Shadow. "Oh sorry boy come on lets let you go out back for morning bathroom. Sorry boy." He laughed and grabbed his shoes and slipped them on and headed to the back yard and let Shadow go and head out" Once shadow was done with his morning bathroom break he trotted back over to Leto and barked. Leto laughed and just patted him on the head. "Well time for breakfast so go lay down." He walked back through the sliding glass door and to the living room and sat down watching the news as he always did. He stopped when he heard the knocking on the door. "Wonder who that could be."
 
Dawn heard the knock at the door just as she was setting the plate of sausage on the table. She called to her son, "Leto, please see who's at the door and then come eat." After turning back to the counter she poured her first cup of coffee and took a sip. She closed her eyes and sighed, relaxed by that first sip.

Ellie laughed when Leto smacked her butt. "Hey!" She yelled playfully. The smell of the sausage made the girl's nose wrinkle with distaste. Ellie hadn't eaten meat since she was about six, when she realize that veal came from baby cows. "G'morning.", she said rather cheerfully. Ellie sat at the table, selecting only toast and a little butter.

Arianna took her time eating her breakfast while reading a magazine article about bathing suits. She was looked up at her younger sister and gave her a little smile. "Good morning, skinny butt." She teased. Ellie made a face at Arianna in response.
 
Toscha walked in and was followed by a few soldiers who said something in a different language. Toscha nodded and they moved around the house. "As you can tell M'am as of right now your government is no more and ours is in control of this country. Now our soldiers will be here for some time and I was wondering if I could set up my and my men's camp here on this nice farm land." Toscha looked Dawn over before going on. "It would be a welcomed change instead of some barracks to enjoy a nice relaxing spot right here. So now if you wouldn't mind bringing your family down and telling them as well."

The soldiers walked around the house to make sure that no one was waiting to ambush them as they started to secure the house, a few others walked in and looked at Leto and Arianna and Ellie before ushering them into the living room and forcing them to the couch. but before they did that they took Leto aside and searched him for any weapons.
 
Dawn did not take kindly to these soldiers barging into her home and she definitely didn't like the look the leader had given her. "Get out of my house!" She yelled at him. She started to move towards him, but when she saw the soldiers forcing her children into the living room she went for them instead. "Take your hands of them!"

Ellie and Arianna both let out startled shouts when the men came bursting into the dining room. They didn't protest when they were taken to the living room, but they did try and stay close to there brother. Ellie held tight to his arm when they took him aside for the frisking, until she was forced off. After that she and her sister stayed close on the couch, fearful expressions on their faces.
 
Toscha nodded and looked at his men before giving orders for them to set up tents and supplies to camp here. he then grabbed his radio and spoke into it telling command where he would be. He looked at the mother and laughed. " I am Captain 1st Class. Toscha of the Strigion team." He then watched as his men started to unload equipment and tents from the trucks and set it up. "Thank you for the use of your fields and house." He noticed how calm the mother was and nodded. "now if you like you may go about your normal day's business."

He then nodded and whistled over to another soldiers. "This is Iliya, He is my 2nd in command and would be more then willing to help out so if you need to put him to work and he can tell the men to do the same should you need extra help around the house." He looked around but noticed no other men in the house besides the son and him and his men and the way the mother looked he was surprised that it was just her and the girls. they could be very good for him.

The soldiers headed outside to the fields to set up their tents and equipment and to create a perimeter so that they could control who would come in and out of the property. Toscha looked at the picture of the family along with a picture of the mother that was for the husband. He figured it must of been older because when they looked they didn't see any other man in the house besides Leto So he figured that he'd be able to control the mother easily.

As the day went on the soldiers did their routine job setting up checkpoints at the end of the driveway to the house and creating a barrier along the whole house property. It wasn't until later that there was some problems when Soldiers checked Leto's room they had found his hunting rifle which was used to keep predators off of the farm land. They had quickly dragged him out and forced him to kneel and tied his hands behind his back. Illiya watched Leto and just shook his head As the soldiers were getting up to put him in the truck.

Toscha sighed before giving his orders. "Now By orders of Lieutenant Colonel Victor Voycheck you are to be taken as P.O.W. Any resistance will be met with equal punishment., Take him, bind him and separate them for further interrogation." The soldiers nodded and kept their weapons trained on Leto before dragging him to an opposite room while the others watched the girls.
 
The three women sat close together on the couch. Arianna was crying softly into her mother's shoulder, while Dawn tried to comfort her. She whispered softly to her daughter, telling her that things would be okay and that the soldiers wouldn't be here long. Ellie was holding together much better then her sister. Outwardly she was calm, but all she could think about was Leto and what might be happening to him.

Dawn spoke up to Toscha again. "And do you expect our farm to sustain you?" Whether the soldiers long or not they would take a profound toll on their farm. She glared at him from the couch. She expected that her country's arm would be along soon enough to help them. Until then they could wait it out.

Arianna had begun crying when Leto was dragged from the room. She couldn't believe this was happening to her family. She new about the war, but never expected it to make it to her own back yard.
 
Leto was dragged to separate a room and tied to a chair. A soldier went to check on a few of the soldiers who were gathering around the room before going to the room to deal with Leto and shutting the door behind him. Toscha looked at Dawn and shook his head. "It didn't have to come to this. As you can tell M'am as of right now your son is in a rather large amount of trouble. Earlier when we had searched we found no weapons but during a second search we recovered this, He was obviously hiding it, and for what, Use against my men. I will not allow it to happen. So now He will be questioned about it." He looked Dawn and Arianna and Ellie over and licked his lips. "Now what do you have to say for yourself?" He shook his head. "I don't think you realize how grave this situation is."

Toscha looked at Dawn and cracked his knuckles. "I don't think you are in a position to argue with me. With one command I give I can have you and your daughters detained or executed without a moments thought. Now I can See what I can do about helping your son but you'll have to do something for me."
 
Ellie remained calm as her mother spoke to Tosha. Her eyes widened slightly when he mentioned having them executed. She looked to her mother sure she would protect them. Dawn gently pushed Arianna away so that she could turn to face Tosha more directly. Arianna did her best to quiet herself and dry her face.

Dawn's eye narrowed and she stared directly into the man's face. "What could I possible do for you, sir?" Her voice was tight. She already had an idea of where his mind was. It didn't matter though, she wouldn't believe any promise he made her. Dawn would help her son without him, how ever she had to. She was willing to die if it took that to save her children.
 
Toscha looked at another soldier then gave him an order and the soldier rushed out of the room to relay the order to Iliya who was questioning Leto and by the sounds of it it was a rough interrogation. "You will all submit. All you need to know is that as long as you obey, You and your daughters will be safe and no harm will come to you but should you decide to disobey then I can foresee that there will be some problems arising, Do you understand?"

Toscha watched Dawn "You will be safe and no physical harm will come upon you and the girls as long as all orders are obeyed without hesitation or restraint. Anything said all of you will do As long as that is followed You will all be safe and allowed to stay here on the farm and not separated." He watched them wondering if the girls would cooperate.
 
All of the women heard the noise of the interrogation. Ellie was suddenly clinging to her mother's arm and staring the the direction of the room her brother was in. Her face was pale with fear. Arianna had her hands over her face and was crying softly again. Dawn's stern expression softened with worry. "Please, just stop hurting him. I'll do what you want!" As she spoke her voice became more desperate. "Just don't hurt my children." She was struggling to remain calm. She was holding both of Ellie's hands in her own. "What do you want me to do?"
 
Toscha really didn't give her much of a choice as he listened to his radio. that Leto had managed to grab one of the soldier's pistol and shoot him in the leg before heading out of his room but only getting to the upstairs room and was now in a stand off with other soldiers. Toscha just shook his head and looked at Dawn. "First few orders, first you and your daughters will get dressed up then, with your older You are going to dress the younger up then tie her up and expose her, 2nd, you will get your son to surrender before on of my soldiers is forced to shoot to kill, then I'll give you some time with him, you are going to please him, tease him and give him a nice lap dance before you return back here to your master. IF you either hesitate or don't do my orders then you and your family will be punished for failing to obey."
