officials and know what to do in your best interest, so with a heavy heart, I’m declaring martial law. All aspects of private companies are now under federal control. I’m sure many of you have heard several states have stated they are breaking away from the Union,” he said and slammed his fist down on his desk, “even though the Supreme Court has ruled they can’t break away. This will be settled by the courts unless the states of Texas, Montana, Louisiana, Wyoming, Utah, Idaho, North Dakota, and New Mexico choose to rejoin the union and turn over all property seized from the federal government. The governors of Missouri and Ohio were going to join them, but private citizens stormed their capitals and killed them. I can understand these citizens’ actions, but they will still be caught and tried in a court of law for their actions.”
    Nelson scoffed, “Yeah, just look at one of the alphabet agencies to find them.”
    “By executive order 12222, all private property has been seized until the end of this crisis. All persons are to report to the nearest FEMA camp. If you live in a city with a population over one hundred thousand, you may be sent back to your home. If you don’t, you will be relocated to a new residence. I have signed an executive order that cuts all power transmission outside of metropolitan areas. We can’t have waste when everyone is supposed to be in a FEMA camp. This is for your own good and the good of the nation.” The president smiled.
    “If you wish this to end so we can go back to our way of life, I strongly urge you to turn over those fighting and causing disruption of our society. The FBI has a hotline for all tips, and any tip that ends in an arrest, a reward will be given,” the president said as an eight hundred number rolled across the bottom of the screen.
    “Now, I want to say to the governors of New Mexico and Texas, you will stop shooting at people crossing the border, and I demand you cease your assaults on the Army of Mexico. They are our neighbors and will be treated as such until the UN court orders you to rejoin the union next week.”
    Michelle sat down in Nelson’s lap. “I like how he already knows how the court is going to rule,” she whispered.
    “Many members of the UN have sent troops here to help us in this trying time,” the president said, narrowing his eyes at the camera. “Your elected officials have their support to stop the foolish actions of a few. Congress has passed legislation that any act against a member or an employee of the government is an act of treason and punishable by death.”
    “He needs to grow a small mustache like Hitler,” Gerald mumbled.
    “Under the orders of martial law, every citizen now reports to the federal government. Any that don’t will be seen as traitors. Homeland is working with local law enforcement to facilitate the transfer of citizens to metropolitan areas. Only government-sanctioned farms and businesses are allowed to operate outside these areas. I, as your president, will lead you out of these trying times, and when we are once again united, our country will be that much stronger. Thank you, and good night.”
    “Well, it’s about to run into high gear now,” Gerald said, getting up and picking Devin up off the floor.

Chapter Four
    Two days later after breakfast, Nelson, Matt, and Gerald were working on placing more dams in the creek. Nelson had wired up the powerhouse and turned four of the turbines on, generating forty thousand watts. The two corkscrew turbines were generating five thousand watts each. Nelson cut their power from the grid since it was about to be turned off anyway. All in all, everyone was really happy.
    The group was placing the last of the barriers just several hundred yards from the bridge that the road went over that led to the farm. When they shut off the backhoe after dropping the last barrier in, Nelson looked around. “You hear something?” he asked.
    “Sounds like a car,”
