Bern, Switzerland
''We are here In Switzerland today, as they have funded a worldwide broadcasting. The Swiss have announced the end of Swiss Neutrality, one of the key Nations in Europe who controls the Alps together with Austria. Much speculation has been going on ever since they have stated it.'' An American reporter said over the Radio.
''Siamo qui oggi per vedere la fine della neutralità svizzera, interesserà il nostro grande leader Mussolini?'' A Italian reported said.
''Zal Zwitserland hun neutraliteit echt beëindigen? Ondersteuning ervoor in Zwitserland is zeer hoog, we zullen het horen van de leider van het Nationaal Front vandaag!'' A dutch reported stated.
''¡Hoy seremos testigos del fin de una neutralidad duradera!'' A fanatic Spanish reporter shouted over the radio.
''Vi har följt schweiziska idealer för neutralitet, men de har tagit initiativ till att avsluta det i Alperna. Vad ska vår nästa kurs vara?'' A Swedish reporter asked.
There were reporters all over the world, not necessarily for Switzerland, but because they funded it for broadcasting, supplying equipment, money, personnel, etc. Making easy money for new companies.
''Sir ETA 5 minutes, are you ready?'' The captain stood together with Kyle at the entrance to the bow of the Zeppelin while asking. Quick repairs have been made on the exterior, making you see almost nothing of the battle that took place one hour ago. ''You have done will Captain, I will ask Hoffman to allocate the finances to repair the damages,'' I said to him. The captain just nodded and opened the door, ''SIR BREAKING CLOUD COVER IN 30 SECONDS!'' a navigator shouted over the Intercom. ''It is time to step into the Light sir,'' he whispered to me. I just nodded and started to walk towards the Bow. '29..28..27..26' I counted the 30 seconds in my head as I started to run towards the bow. '12..11..10..9..8..7' I was almost at Zero. '3..2..1..0!' when I counted zero did I finally arrive at the bow, a bit out of breath, but on time.
The cloud cover was broken away and the Sight of Bundesplatz Bern was immediately visible.
People started to scream as they saw the massive Zeppelin descend at a rapid pace. I grabbed the mic placed there especially for this purpose. 'Although made for boosting morale it also works as a podium' I was satisfied with the purpose.
''MY CITIZENS! IT IS ME YOUR PRIME MINISTER, KYLE WEISS!'' I shouted. The Zeppelin kept descending until only hovering 20 meters above the Houses of Bern. ''FROM NOW ON I HEREBY ANNOUNCE SWISS NEUTRALITY TO AN END, WE SHALL PROTECT OUR BORDERS AND SHALL PROTECT THOSE WHO NEED IT. WE SHALL GET INVOLVED WITH THE WORLD! AND AS OUR FIRST ACT AS A NON-NEUTRAL COUNTRY IS DEEPLY CONDEMN GERMANY'S AGGRESSIVE ACTION. ANY AGGRESSION POINTED TOWARDS THE ALPINE STATES WILL BE MET WITH FORCE! LASTLY WE CONDEMN BRITISH COLONIAL RULE WHICH MAKES MILLIONS OF PEOPLE SUFFER EACH DAY! WE TERMINATE ALL OUR TIES WITH THESE COUNTRIES!'' I announced the world.
Everyone was stunned, Switzerland has just denounced the 1/4th of the world and a strong European Nation. Is the prime Minister crazy?!? ''IN ORDER TO PROTECT THE ALPINE STATE OF AUSTRIA WE WILL GUARANTEE THEIR INDEPENDENCE ANYONE VIOLATING THIS WILL MEET SWISS ARMS!'' I stated. Everyone was losing their minds, they remember the Swiss as peaceful people. Not bothered by what goes on outside their borders, this revelation shocked them to the core. 'Only 2 major nations are not controlled by the Union, the U.S.A and the Soviet Union. I must get these two nations behind me, but how?!?' I thought to myself. 'It's best to get the closest first, that would be the Soviet Union!' ''AND AS MY LAST ACT TODAY AS PRIME MINISTER IS TO RECOGNISE THE SOVIET UNION AS AN INDEPENDENT STATE!'' I ordered. 'I SHALL MAKE THE WORLD KNOW OUR PROWESS!'
'krgggg' The ground started to vibrate slightly, the onlookers were unsure why. Since earthquakes never happen in Bern. ''BEHOLD THE SWISS ARMY!'' I shouted. The vibrating was getting worse and worse when around the corned of the Bundesplatz Bern a Tiger I appears. 'All must go well, else we will be the laughing stock!' sweat beads started to form on top of my head.
thousands of troops marched into Bern, all white skulls, at the forefront was a Tiger I and at the Back a the Tiger I, in the middle there are a multitude of tanks, ranging from Panzer III and IVs to III/IVs. From the outside, it just looks like a tiny portion of our strength, but little do they know that we all white skulls have been mobilised and all tanks have been put into use, some tanks only have an engine and gun, no other utilities!
In the middle of the Parade was the Pz.kpfw V, Ausf. X. The Parade lasted an hour, everyone was watching the massive steel beasts drive through Bern. ''WE SHALL PROTECT OUR SOVEREIGNTY NO MATTER THE COSTS! NOW TO END OUR SHOW WE SHALL SHOW YOU THE MIGHT OF OUR AIR POWER!'' I shouted. and immediately 50 Hurricanes started to fly dart around the Zeppelin, while Zeppelin Aimed its 400 mm Guns to the Target Up the mountain. ''WE DO NOT CONTROL THE SEA, WE MIGHT NOT CONTROL THE LAND, BUT WE SHALL CONTROL THE AIR!'' 'BOOM!' 4, 400mm HE shells were shot from the massive barrels, the recoil made the Zeppelin slightly move to the side, but special gyro system counteracted the movement.
On the Bridge, the Fire control officer was counting down until impact, ''4..3..2..1..0! DETONATION!'' he shouted, and the just as he said that the massive HE shells crashed down upon the Metal Targets, Fire engulfed the targets, dirty flew everywhere. But the HE shells have done their job, the people are in awe by the might of the Zeppelin. And the all newspapers will use the quote, 'we do not control the sea we might not control the land, but we shall control the air!' Radiomen started to immediately broadcast what they saw, military personnel send by countries to watch had solemn faces as they looked at the display. But the biggest alarms went off in the HQ in London owned by the Unionists.
The world was taken by storm with Switzerland's new armaments and might! 'I will protect what I have as I vowed to the 7000 people who died protecting the organisation, I shall NOT let that HAPPEN AGAIN!' I shouted inside my heart with utmost confidence.
''Sir, we have what you requested, please return back to Base,'' Zero reported over the portable radio.
Please report us if you find any errors so we can fix it asap!
