Vice President Anna Kennedy stalked into the President's office without much in the way of preamble, warning or invitation. His secretary trailed her by a footstep, trying to get her attention, but Anna simply ignored the woman. Pushing the door open to the President's office, she saw that he was talking to a few businessmen and women representing some industrial group or another. They were beneath her notice, however, and she slapped a newspaper down onto the President's desk. Texas Secedes! The headline declared. The text was facing President Reece, and he caught it at a glance. "Excuse me, gentlefolk, but it seems something's upset the Texans." he said, and read, unfolding to the story continuation. When he finished, he looked up at Anna, and raised an eyebrow. "Why didn't we see this coming sooner than this?" Anna shook her head. "I don't know, Mr. President. This came out of the blue, but all my sources confirmed it before I got to your office - and I'm surprised you didn't know before I did. John, " she said, using his first name, a fairly rare occurrence for her. " what are we going to do?" she asked. The President looked down at the headline, and back through the story. "Well, with this level of treason, there's only one thing to be done, I suppose. Call General di Santos, Admiral Wright and Sky Marshal Weatherby in; we've planning to do." he said, and looked at his former guests."I apologize, ladies and gentlemen, but it seems all our lives just got a whole lot more interesting. --- Federation Declares War! --- Four hundred thousand troops surged towards the Texan border from New Mexico, Louisiana and Oklahoma. In Louisiana, First Fleet steamed out of port, with Second steaming towards the Texan shoreline from the Caribbean. Every squadron of fighters and bombers in the country made their way south, with twelve squadrons of fighters almost over the border into Texas on strike missions before the National Guard even woke up to the new war. The fighters and bombers were targeted at Texas's anti air installations and airbases, seeking to gain immediate aerial superiority. The Declaration of War would be sent - to an undersecretary of an undersecretary of State in the Texan government, of course - at a time perfectly coinciding with those aircraft passing over the Texan border. The ground troops, of course, would make their best speeds to Lubbock, Amarillo, Dallas, Austin and Houston, while the naval assets would seek to pound the Houston Harbor with Tomahawks and strikes from carrier-based fighters. --- 30 minutes prior to the strike commencing... President Reece called Governor Sparks in Texas. When he finally got through to the man, he began without preamble. "This is President Reece. It wasn't a wise decision for you to leave the Federation. It goes rather violently against the Constitution, Governor, and you'll find that I react rather... badly... to people breaking the law of the land. So here's how this is going to go: Either you renounce your secession and come back into the Federal fold, or the declaration of war I just signed, hot from Congress, goes into full effect. It's your choice. I'm waiting."

The California Republic may, although not officially, already chosen a side in the Plains Federation-Republic of Texas war. The interesting concept of this was that California was open to siding with either of them, and both sides knew that California would be a large help to them in this time of dire need. This was especially true to the Plains Federation, who seemed to have all of the odds stacked against them, with one of these odds being California. However, California was determined to remain unbiased, so sent a letter to the Plains Federation.

Kazuko felt lost since she had awoken, she remembered being in a room, it was so shiny, and there was a man above her, she was tired, so tired, and then she went back to sleep. She awoke again in her bed, Takako was waiting with her morning Tea, and a sheet of paper requesting her presence in the Plains Federation, they had begun a high level conference with the leaders of various nations, but a visit in person may be enough to sway them. She got herself ready and made her way to the waiting car, noticing the various servants looked upon her strangely. Feeling self conscious she looked herself over in a mirror on the car ride to the airport, what was it they were looking at, she hadn't changed at all, had she? The flight over was boring, as to be expected, while refueling in Hawaii she wondered about the Islands, they could have been hers, instead they end up with Tikal, perhaps a gateway between their cultures could be built upon the island chain, they had been intimate allies for longer than most nations had existed, why not work towards establishing something between the actual people of the nations instead of simply the leadership. She wondered what the people of both nations even thought of the alliance. but for now she would sleep, only to awake just before touching down in Plains Federation. Something was different about her but she couldn't quite figure out what, the thoughts were sent to the back of her mind however, she was off to meet with the President of the Plains Federation, the long term goals of their alliance would be met, but soon the time would come for their friendship to be forged properly, the French and Tikal had become EAI's most intimate friends through conflict, with yet another looming upon the horizon, more bonds would be made, and their respective continents would become even closer to help out a third.
