(Opening Theme Ends)

==========

A static sound crackled as the screen flickered with glitches. Two familiar voices broke through the interference.

???: "Are you... sure... it isn't busted, sis? Brother Kaiyo... will be mad if that's the case."

???: "Oh, quiet! I know exactly what I'm doing here. We need this to work so the audience can see our little show... Come on, you wretched drone! ...Ah ha! There it is!"

The static faded, revealing a clear scene of two girls - Tsukiko and Kuroi - who were the narrators of the story.

Kuroi: (chilling smile) "Well, well, well, what's up, my dear readers? It's your girls, Kuroi and Tsukiko! And today, we're back with another thrilling episode of 'GATE: Thus the United States of Canada Fought There!' Aren't you just dying to know what happens next in our log?"

The camera slowly panned upward, revealing that it was being recorded by the drone Kuroi had just activated.

Kuroi: (smirks) "You must be wondering where we are right now, aren't you? Well, today is YOUR lucky day, because we'll be giving you a delightful little tour of our home during the annual hunting season. The preparation crew is busy setting up various equipment, tents, and other necessities to ensure this season unfolds perfectly - no room for error, of course. We're currently at a resort nestled beside the forest, teeming with guests: nobles, government officials, and military personnel have all arrived today. They're outside, assisting with preparations, alongside my family and friends - and, naturally, their hapless servants. Let's step outside and greet them, shall we? It'll be so... entertaining."

Kuroi clapped her hands excitedly as Tsukiko followed closely behind. They opened the door and stepped into the yard, greeted by a throng of people whose attire marked their social status: nobles, government and military officials, merchants, soldiers, and servants. Kuroi let out a low whistle at the sight.

Kuroi: (whistles) "Now THAT'S an impressive crowd, sis."

Tsukiko remained silent, nodding slightly as she pulled out her phone, turned it on, and began typing.

Kuroi: "There are so many people. I can barely spot our family. Do you think there's a chance our parents will show up?"

Tsukiko paused her typing and turned her phone towards her sister, revealing a message.

Tsukiko: "Dad mentioned they arrived minutes ago and were busy issuing orders for this setup."

Kuroi: (smiling) "Perfect! So, should we search for them together or split up?"

Tsukiko contemplated for a moment before responding.

Tsukiko: "I think we should go separately. It will expedite our tasks. We should assist others along the way to ensure the hunting season begins promptly."

Kuroi nodded in agreement as she would remember that.

Kuroi: (nodding) "True. You make a valid point."

Tsukiko: "If we encounter our siblings or nephews or nieces, we should assist them as well, since they have tasks assigned by our parents. We're the only ones without specific duties; we agreed to narrate the story as the narrators."

Kuroi: (nods) "Got it! That sounds efficient. It'll definitely speed up the setup for the hunting season."

Tsukiko: (nods) "Exactly. This will take some time. I propose we create two drones to document everything for our readers. We can post it on either at the start or the end of the next chapters. I hear this chapter will be quite... chaotic."

Kuroi nodded, and within moments, she used her powers to duplicate a drone, producing two - one for Tsukiko and one for herself. Before concluding the log, she addressed the readers.

Kuroi: "This tour will take some time before we reveal the excitement. But don't worry; these drones will capture every moment, so you won't miss anything. Enjoy the chapter, and we'll see you next time. Peace!"

The scene faded to black as Kuroi flashed a peace sign and ended the log.

========== (Scene Change) ==========

The scene opens to show the MV-38 Condors flying in the air as they make their way back to the Canadian base. After the rescue of the Parallel Japanese from the Second GATE, USC medics helped with the wounded as they are able to stabilize them until they get proper medical treatment.

Additional transports are given for heavy airlift as the JRF1 and the USC battalion with them are also heading back to base. The F-22A Raptors and other TSFs with them are flying at the sides to protect the transports. Some of the Japanese are able to look out the windows in amazement at the sight of the mechs. They still found it hard to believe that Canada had access to such advanced technology, much less real life mechs.

Soon they all began to talk among themselves in their native language.

Japanese Civilian #1: "Just where did they come from? How can Canada have this level of technology?"

Japanese Civilian #2: "Your right. I don't think the Canadian government has the budget, time or effort to create any of this, much less real life mechs."

Japanese Civilian #3: "They said they're taking us to their base. I wonder what it looks like."

Japanese Civilian #4: "What did they mean by Japan was annexed after WW2? How can that be?"

Japanese Civilian #5: "Maybe we'll know once they tell us who they really are... I hope."

Noriko was silent as she drowned the conversation out of her head as her people talked. She glanced at the soldiers in the transport, amazed at the armor they were wearing. Sitting next to a window, she saw the black TSF known as the F-22A Raptor EMD flying in the air. She couldn't help but feel at awe at the sight. Truth be told, she was a bit of an anime fan, especially when it comes to Mecha. So, it was quite a sight to see something from anime become real life.

Suddenly, the black TSF took notice of Noriko looking at her and turned its 'head' to see her. Noriko flinched but relaxed a bit to see the mech give a jaunty wave at her. She gave a nervous smile and waved back.

She was then cut off from her thoughts when an announcement was made that they arrived at the base. Soon the Parallel Japanese can see a large military base and it was seen to be insanely large. Soon the transports landed on the landing pads where medical personal were on sight as they moved in to get the liberated Parallel Japanese civilians rushed to medical to be examined for their injuries or possible STDs and other diseases they may unknowingly carry. This was mainly because the Canadians were aware that some of the female Parallel Japanese were raped and wanted to make sure none of them carried sexual diseases.

The JRF1 disembarked elsewhere as the TSFs were then stationed at a nearby hanger bay. When they all got off, they were soon met by Lt. General Sergei Kushnirov, Queen Tyuule, and Ultron. The Warrior Bunny Queen smiled in happiness to see that Marcus was alright.

Tyuule: (smiles) "It's nice to see you, Colonel."

Marcus: (smiles) "To you as well you Majesty."

The members of JRF1 glanced at each other due to their leader's interaction with the Queen.

Ulrich: (whispers) "Do they like each other?"

Roberta: (whisper) "Maybe."

???: "Ahem."

Everyone looked at Sergei and they all stood at attention.

Sergei: (nods) "At ease. It's good to see you all again. I take it the mission was a success?"

Marcus: (nods) "Yes sir. We managed to liberate all the slaves and get them to safety."

Sergei: (nods) "Excellent."

Mercus: "Sir there also something else. Something that might very well confuse you."

Sergei: (raised eyebrow) "Hm?"

Sergei motioned Marcus to continue.

Marcus: "Sir when we saved the Japanese, they told us that Japan was still independent and that our country is supposed to be called the 'Dominion of Canada'. They also mentioned something about the 'United States of America'. We don't know what that means sir."

Okay now the Lt. General was confused. If he remembered in his history books, Japan was annexed by China and Russia after WW2. Also, the 'United States of America'? The only nation he considers having the words 'United States' is Canada and ONLY Canada. As for America, the only two things that popped into his mind are either the Federation of South America or the Confederate States of America who lost the Canadian Civil War. Just what exactly are these people talking about?

Sergei: (nods) "I am indeed just as confused as you are Colonel."

Ultron: "Perhaps I may have a solution. Given their appearances, they seem to have the level of technology that we are. Perhaps they may have cellphones or other devices that we can hack into to gather more in formation."

Sergei: (nods) "Mmm. That does sound like a good idea. Colonel, I'm leaving you and your team in charge of the Japanese civilians you rescued. Find out all you can about them."

Now Marcus and the rest of his team were surprised to hear this.

Marcus: (surprised) "Sir? You're leaving us in charge of them?"

Sergei: (nods) "Yes. Queen Tyuule will also stay, along with a couple of other Warrior Bunnies to help you. You are expected to take care of their well-being and make sure they're cared for. Do that as we try to ascertain the situation."

Marcus: (salutes) "Yes sir. I understand. Sir, what about the slave towns that we planned to liberate? Who's going to do that?"

Sergei: "I've assigned other Battalions to the mission, along with some Warrior Bunnies who decided to volunteer for these missions. I know and understand that you and you team what to get involved, but your #1 priority is to learn about our new 'guests' and find out where they TRULY came from. Understood?"

Marcus: (nods) "Yes sir. I understand."

Sergei: (nods) "See that your team does Colonel. Dismissed!"

Everyone left as Tyuule and Ultron followed. One thing is true. The two sides will learn of each other's history... and both sides will be in a shock of a lifetime. 

========== (Scene Change) ==========

King Duran looked around his cell for what was most likely the hundredth time. It was a plain old cell with bars, a simple bed and a small opening for sunlight to come in. Lights on the ceiling were used to illuminate the room. It kept the room at a moderate temperature, and the cell itself was rather clean, no sign of insects or rats scurrying about. He had been stripped of his armor and weapons as they put him into an orange suit and a metal collar on his neck.

The old king had lost tracked of how long he had been in there. But, if he had to guess, probably a few hours at best. Normally a noble or royal would be given better treatment than the one Duran was given. However, Duran had long since learned that not everyone thought that way and anyone who argued against it would get quite a beating, some even left permanently crippled. Besides, he had lost so there was no point in throwing a tantrum over it.

Still despite the current situation he was in right now, he didn't hold any hatred or anger towards the foreigners from beyond the GATE. Yes, he had lost many of his fellow soldiers and high-class lords who were unfortunately killed by them, but he wasn't stupid. He knew that the one truly responsible was Molt.

Duran should've realized it from the beginning, but he was too blinded by his own pride to see it. The Saderan Emperor had no doubt sent the vassal states to fight and die in a meaningless battle. That tyrant didn't care less if they won or lost, only to ensure they are rendered down to be unable to threaten his rule. Duran was bitter about it but knew it wouldn't make a single difference. The Allied Army was completely wiped out, with those that survived are then taken prisoner.

One thing is for sure, Duran swore on his life that he will do EVERTHING in his power to make Molt pay for what he did to them. Either in life or death, he would make the Emperor regret ever betraying them.

Suddenly, he was broken out of his thoughts when he looked up and saw three figures approach his cell. The one in the middle was a Canadian military officer while standing beside him are two UCAF Heavy Troopers.

Duran was confused. He had a sneaking suspicion that the one in the middle was of higher rank while the two were his subordinates. He couldn't help but notice two large staff like weapons in the hands of the Heavy Troopers which were actually Dingo LMGs.

The Officer then placed a hand on the wall where the controls are, and the cell opened. The two heavy troopers walked up to Duran as he ordered the King to get up.

UCAF Officer: "On your feet. Let's move."

The two Heavy Troopers grabbed Duran by the arms and hoisted him up to his feet. The King said nothing as he was escorted out of his cell and followed the Officer while the heavy troopers walked behind him. As he was walking, he noticed the other cells were filled with survivors from the Allied Kingdoms. Many were bandaged up, some more so than others while also seeing that some were missing their limbs. However, he can see that all of them had hopeless looks on their faces, as if no one was coming to recuse them. However, as he was walking, Duran widen his eyes slightly as he saw the lack of Imperial Prisoners.

Duran Thoughts: (wide eyes) "Where are the Imperial Prisoners? Surely some Saderan's had to have survived."

As Duran continued to walk, he asked the Canadian Officer a question.

Duran: "Where are you taking me?"

The ones escorting him continued to walk, but the Officer answered his question.

UCAF Officer: "The General wishes to speak with you, including an acquaintance you might be familiar with. Depending on how the meeting goes and the judgement placed on you, it's possible you and your men may be free to leave and go back to your homes."

Duran's eyes went wide at such a prospect happening. However, he was soon urged forward by the Guards where they soon exit the prison. The man was forced to shield his eyes as he tried to adjust to the sunlight above him. He was then escorted to a horseless carriage, which was actually an MRAP Pitbull, where another Heavy Trooper was waiting for them. Soon they all climbed aboard as Duran has sandwiched between two Heavy Troopers in the back. The Officer sat on the right side while the other Heavy Trooper on the left side took the wheel and drove off to the Command Center.

The King was surprised to see how fast they were going. Compared to a horse, this vehicle was MUCH quicker as he saw just how fast they were going. While most of it seemed like a blur, Duran can see large structures unlike anything he's seen before. He can see many of the foreigners wearing their armor as they march across the field. Hearing a sound in the skies, Duran looks up near the window and saw what looked like metal birds flying by and can see Steel Giants patrolling the area.

Also, he can see the Warrior Bunnies who all look happy with their new living conditions and are celebrating they victory over the allied army. He can also see some Warrior Bunny children playing around and interacting with the foreign soldiers as they also played with them.

However, his attention turned to the front of the building he was heading towards. Duran can already tell that this must be the command center. The structure was made entirely of metal and saw a pole showing the flag with a red leaf surrounded by blue stars in a circular formation. He didn't put much thought to it as the vehicles stopped next to the building and the soldiers disembarked. Duran got out and they all made their way towards the building which was guarded by two Canadian Marines.

The Canadian officer contacted the generals with his wrist communicator to inform them that Duran was with them. After a few moments, the two Canadian Marines let him in as Duran was escorted inside. They as they were walking Duran could only imagine what they were like. After seeing how they fight, he had a feeling their leaders must be powerful warriors.

Soon they make it to a door and the Officer knocked. Duran head the words 'Come in' and the door was opened. When he got inside, Duran widened his eyes in total shock at the sight of Colt Formal being very much alive and well.

Duran: (shocked) "Colt Formal? You're alive?"

Colt: (smiles and nods) "Indeed I am. I know there is much that I have to explain. Please just hear us out."

Duran: (shocked confusion) "Explain? Explain what-?"

???: "Ahem."

Duran turned and saw there were five other individuals in the room. Duran was surprised to see the Warrior Bunny Queen Tyuule, but he shakes in fear at the sight of Ultron. Sergei Kushnirov got up from his seat and walked up to Duran as he looked down at the King with a serious glare on his face. Duran clearly saw the man was massive compared to his height, somewhere around being 2 heads taller than him at least. This made the King's pupils shrink in fear.

Sergei: (glares) "I am Lt. General Sergei Kushnirov of the United States of Canada. I have questions for you that you will need to answer."

Duran had no idea what would happen, only that he had the undeniable feeling that his actions would decide the fate of not only his own kingdom, but the other vassals as well.

He just hopes he doesn't screw up. 

========== (Scene Change) ==========

Meanwhile, back with the Japanese civilians, they are all currently in the medical room as they are all being treated for their injures. Doctors and Nurses were all over the place as they try to help their patients. Noriko was currently being treated for her injures and looks around in amazement as she sees the Doctors and Nurses with the injured, using what appears to be advanced medical technologies you would only find in sci-fi. She wasn't the only one as others were surprised to see such things existing. Suddenly Noriko was cut off from her thoughts and jumps in fright when she heard a woman let out an agonizing scream.

???: (agonizing scream) "NOOOOOO!!!!!! MY SON IS DEAD!!!!!!"

Noriko and a couple of other patients turned to see a mother crying over the dead body of her son. He looked to be about 6 years old as he had his shirt off and can see that the boy is covered in bandages on his face and body. She can clearly see the blood stains on the bandages. However, one of the doctors is seen looking at a monitor as he holds a device over the 'dead' boy's head. Soon that same Doctor turned to his college with a serious, yet hopeful expression on his face.

Doctor: #1: (serious glare) "The boy still has brain activity! Get him to a Med-Bay! Hurry!"

Two nurses immediately grab the boy's body and bring him over to a contraption Noriko has never seen before.

The mother took notice of the nurses taking her child's body to an unknown device. Soon she became worried and panics at what the doctors are doing.

???: (panics) "Wait what are you doing?! What are you doing to my son's body?!"

That same doctor had to hold the mother and reassured her that her son will be fine.

Doctor: #1: "Ma'am calm down! Your son is flatlined, but he still has brain activity! We can save him! Please just get back and let us do our job!"

Noriko and some of the other patients watched the events unfold as they can see the boy is being layed down on a device they've never seen before. Noriko became both confused and concerned.

Noriko: (concerned) "What's that? What are they doing to him?"

Her doctor answered for her with a reassuring smile.

Doctor #2: (smiles) "That's a Med-Bay. Don't worry, that boy will be all right."

The doctors removed the boy's bandages, and Noriko cringed at the sight as she can see that his body was practically sliced open and that half his face looked like it's been torn off.

Soon the Med-Bay was activated as a bright light shined on the boy's body and face. The mother watched in both shock and astonishment as the boy's body began to heal itself and his face is being restored. Soon the boy's wounds are all healed up as he snaps his eyes open and gasps in shock like he's been woken up from a nightmare, alive and well.

Both Noriko and the other patients watch the whole thing in utter shock and disbelief. The boy was supposed to be dead, yet the doctors were able to bring him back to life by hooking him up to that device. The mother's eyes were wide as dinner plates to see that her little boy was alive and well. Soon she broke down into tears of joy as she hugged her son for dear life.

Some of the patient near the events that unfolded were talking amongst themselves in shock at what they all saw.

Japanese Civilian #1: (shocked) "What the heck was that?!"

Japanese Civilian #2: (shocked) "Did the doctors manage to bring that boy back to life?!"

Japanese Civilian #3: (shocked) "I don't believe it! That's scientifically impossible!"

The Parallel Japanese patients were talking amongst themselves as they were all visibly shocked at what they all witnessed. What they saw was something out of the realm of science fiction. Noriko was once again amazed that such technology can even exist.

Noriko Thoughts: (amazed) "Amazing. If we had this back in our world..."

Noriko can already see the possibilities of what this miracle medical technology can do. Soon other critically injured patients were taken to the Med-Bays as their wounds were healed up. Patients who are crippled, had broken bones, or a broken limb were instantly healed. Females who were unfortunately raped had any semen in their body removed and their hymen repaired, something they were very grateful for.

Just then the doors opened and Parallel Japanese in the room recoiled in shock at the sight of Ultron coming in the room. Standing next to him is the familiar face of Lt. Colonel Ulrich with a box him his hands. Soon one of the Doctors came forward and greeted the two.

Doctor #1: "Lt. Colonel Ulrich. Ultron. Sirs. It's nice to see you both. What brings you two here?"

Ulrich: (nods) "Hello Doctor. Listen, it's about the Japanese we're rescued. Did they bring with them any devices with them like cellphones or other electronic devices."

Doctor #1: (nods) "As a matter of fact they did. We had to confiscate a couple of phones in order to work on our patients. We promised to give them back after treating them."

Ulrich: (nods) "I understand that. Unfortunately, we have to confiscate them temporarily. General's orders I'm afraid."

Ultron: "Rest assured, we'll be sure to give them back. We need information on our new guests and where they come from. Once gathering the necessary knowledge, we'll hand them back."

Doctor #1: (sigh) "I understand. Give me a moment."

The Doctor took the box from Ulrich's hand and went to fetch the devices. Just then, Noriko spoke up to ask a question.

Noriko: (nervous) "Uh... excuse me?"

Both Ultron and Ulrich took notice of Noriko.

Ulrich: "Yes? May I help you?"

Noriko: (nervous) "Who... Just who are you people?"

Ulrich: (nods) "I'm Lt. Colonel Ulrich T. Grant. A TSF pilot of the United States of Canada."

There it is again. The 'United States of Canada' part left Noriko confused. She was certain that the only ones who have the words 'United States' is America while Canada is called a different name. However, something clicked into her mind when Ulrich said the words 'TSF'. 

Noriko: (confused) "Wait... TSF? As in Tactical Surface Fighter? From the Muv-Luv anime series? You have those things?"

Now it was Ulrich turn to be confused.

Ulrich: (confused) "Uh... yeah? The TSFs were created in the year 2012. Canada was the first to make one until the other nations made their own TSFs. Don't you know that?"

Soon the other Japanese patient also became confused.

Japanese Civilian #1: (confused) "Wait 2012? The TSF were created on that year?"

Ulrich: (confused nod) "Yeah how do you not know that? The first TSF, the F-4 Phantom, was created and presented in Washington DC at the White House. The creation of this mech was broadcasted all over the world to see."

The Japanese civilians were once again confused. If what Ulrich said is true and the existence of the TSFs were indeed broadcasted globally, then they surely would've known about it. Instead, such an even never happened in their world.

Japanese Civilian #2: (confused) "I... I afraid you must be confused. We never heard of the TSF become real and functional in 2012. Much less broadcasted in Washington DC within America."

Now Ulrich looked at the Japanese Civilian with a bewildered look.

Ulrich: (bewildered) "America? Don't you mean Canada?"

Japanese Civilian #2: (confused) "Huh?"

Ulrich: (bewildered) "I mean no disrespect, but I think you must be deeply confused. Washington DC is the capital of Canada, not America."

Noriko: (confused) "What? But how-?"

It was then Ultron spoke up as the Doctor brought in the phones.

Ultron: "Lt. Colonel, I think it's time we take our leave. We have our objective. Once we analyze the data in these devices, we should be able to clear up all this confusion and get answers we ALL seek."

Ulrich: (nods) "Alright. If you say so Ultron. Thanks Doc."

Doctor #1: (nods) "No problem."

Suddenly Noriko and the other Japanese patient became scared when they heard the robots name.

Noriko: (scared) "Wait, Ultron? As in the killer Al from Marvel Comics?"

Ultron: (confused) "You know my Marvel counterpart that I am based on?"

That just confirmed their suspicions. Immediately the Japanese in the room began to scream and panic in terror at the fact there was a killer Al in the room with them. Doctors and Nurses immediately tried to calm them down and tell them he isn't a threat.

Japanese Civilian (panic) "SHIT!!! IT'S ULTRON!!! WE'RE ALL GONNA DIE!!!"

Japanese Civilian (panic) "SKYNET HAD JUST BECAME A REALITY!!!"

Japanese Civilian (panic) "JUDGEMENT DAY IS UPON US!!!"

Even Noriko tried to get away from the Al as far as possible. Sadly, the Doctors wouldn't let her as they had to restrain her.

Noriko: (terrified) "NO!!! LET ME GO! LET ME GO!!! 1 DON"T WANNA DIE!!!"

Soon security was forced to be called in as UCAF Marines stormed in to help restrain the patient while the doctors and nurses try to calm them down, assuring them that he's not a threat. However, it did little as the Japanese still kept screaming in terror.

At that point Ultron had enough as he shouted in a demonic, mechanical tone.

Ultron: (demonic tone) "ENOUGH!!!"

The room became silent as the Japanese patients stopped struggling. Soon Ultron went back to normal as he spoke in a calm and reassuring tone.

Ultron: "I completely understand that my very existence may scare you all. I understand that. However, I can assure you all that I not here to bring harm to any of you at all. Rest assured that I am NOT a killer Al here to bring genocide on you people here."

Ulrich then spoke up.

Ulrich: "Listen we're all confused here, and I know that many of us have questions that we desperately need answers to. Believe me, I and the others here in this base are just a confused as you all are. Right now, we're here to analyze and extract data from your devices to know where you all come from. I know this is considered an invasion of privacy, but we're in the dark here and we need to know just where the second GATE leads to. Once we finish getting the necessary knowledge of your origins, we'll give you back your phones and devices. After that, we'll be able to answer any and all questions you may have. Does that sound good?"

The Japanese civilians gave each other looks, but they decided to agree as they can tell everyone was confused at what was going on. Ulrich nodded in delight.

Ulrich: (nods) "Thank you."

With all that and done, Ultron and Ulrich took their leave, leaving the Parallel Japanese with their thoughts. 

========== (Scene Change) ==========

After that whole fiasco, the JRF1 is in a room with Ultron and Minerva currently analyzing and gathering the necessary data on the electronic devices. Alongside them are the Canadian Generals who also want to know more about their new guests.

Sergei: "Anything?"

Ultron: "Give us a moment. We should have the necessary data."

It at least 30 seconds until the transfer is complete.

Minerva: "We have the data. Oh my, I did not expect this."

Maximus: (confused) "What do you mean? What's going?"

Ultron: "General, we have the necessary knowledge and data, including where they came from and their history. After reviewing the data, I have come to one conclusion."

Marcus: (confused) "And that is?"

Ultron turned in his chair to face everyone.

Ultron: "There is no denying it. These people... come from a Parallel Earth."

Everyone in the room, except Minerva, looked at Ultron in utter confusion.

Roberta: (confused) "A parallel Earth. Like those scenarios in science fiction or fantasy?"

Ultron: "I can assure this is very real. The Japanese we have in our care is not the Japanese from our world. The data and history conclude that they come from another Earth. Possibly due to the dimensional gateway used from the second GATE."

Sergei: "You mentioned something about their history? If what you say is true, then I take it their world's history must be different from ours?"

Minerva: (nods) "Very much so General. The Earth they come from is exactly the same as ours, but their history, and the nations are different from our own. Even the Canada we know is vastly different from their world."

Ulrich: "Does this involve the 'United States of America' I keep hearing about?"

Now the other members of JRF1 looked at Ulrich in confusion.

Wang: (confused) "United States of America?"

Minerva looked at Ulrich with a firm nod.

Minerva: (nods) "Yes it does. I won't lie. I am shocked about their history and the events that have unfolded."

Sergei immediately looked at both Ultron and Minerva with a serious glare on his face.

Sergei: (serious glare) "Ultron. Minerva. Tell us everything."

And so, both Ultron and Minerva told everyone in the room about the Parallel history of the Earth the Parallel Japanese come from.

========== (Scene Change) ==========

A rich nobleman is seen running for his life as he is currently dragging a little Warrior Bunny girl that he bought as a slave.

It was supposed to be a regular, normal day in the city of Palos. The city was considered the second largest and most important city in the Saderan Empire. It held great importance due to vast trade within the region, specifically when it came to slavery. As expected, countless slaves were bought and sold every day.

In many ways, slaves made up at least 1/3 of the city's population. While most were humans, there were others that were humanoids, even rarer ones that were elves. Unsurprisingly, nearly all of them were captured by bandits/mercenaries and sold to make money. Others were either wanted criminals or victims of the Empire's conquests. It should be noted that if the city were to fall, it would be a crippling blow to the Empire, both morally and economically.

The Empire was very much aware of this. Even before the two failed invasions, Palos was protected by a well-trained and well-equipped army of soldiers that numbered around the size of an entire corps. Supporting them were three Wyvern outposts at least half a mile away and there were multiple auxiliaries as well. All of the walls were covered with guards as they were supported by catapults and ballistae. There was also a massive river surrounding the city, giving it a natural defense that will help slow down any invaders and buy time for the defenders to organize and counterattack.

Furthermore, there were also different types of merchants and nobles living in the city that have their own small armies. Their small armies mainly consisted of hired mercenaries who are given the job to protect their 'goods' from those who try to take it away. The Saderan Empire was confident that should an invading force somehow manage to reach and enter the city, they were all extremely confident that their defenses can hold out until the necessary reinforcements can arrive.

So, when they heard that two GATEs opened in both Arnus and Alnus Hill, and the Imperial Army marched through both of them, the entire city exploded with activity in anticipation of new slaves filling up the market.

Except that didn't happen.

Apparently, word had gotten out that the two expeditions through the GATEs had ended in colossal failure. Many rumors and words got out about what truly happened. When the first GATE opened in Arnus Hill, the first Imperial Expedition was decimated by an army that can command an army of mages, control animals made of iron, and command massive giants made of steel. Even the counterattacks from the Allied Armies failed to stop the foreigners as they too were massacred in the process.

Soon the second GATE opened and once again the Imperial Army was sent through to capture slaves for business. They learned that they were somewhat successful as they managed to capture over a hundred people from the second GATE. However, it once again ended in failure as the inhabitants from the first GATE managed to arrive and rescue the slaves the Imperial Army managed to capture.

As a result of all this, no slaves were captured or brought to the city. Many citizens were expecting thousands of brand-new and valuable slaves to be bought and sold in the markets, thus making them extremely rich in the process. Instead, all they got was absolutely nothing, leaving many grumbling and angry customers. The only things they got were the names of the ones responsible for their predicaments. Apparently, the foreign army that has been messing with their slave business were people called 'Canadians'.

And they were currently attacking the city of Palos.

Back to that same nobleman running away with his recently purchased slave, the man watches in horror as he sees great fireballs destroy multiple buildings while the soldiers stationed in the city were torn to shreds. Looking up in the skies, he sees what looks like metal dragons flying at high speeds and Iron Pegasus flying in the air as their kill many Wyverns in the process. He can also see some of the Steel Giants in the skies and on the ground as they massacre the defenders while their foot soldiers free any slaves they can find.

Taking a sharp left, the nobleman made his way while the little Warrior Bunnie child was struggling to break free as she cries.

Warrior Bunnie: (cries) "LET ME GO! I WANNA GO TO MY MOMMY!"

Nobleman: (hateful glare) "Will you shut up you little whore!"

The Nobleman punch the Warrior Bunny child in the gut causing her to cough up spit and fall to the ground in pain as she clutched her stomach in pain as a bruise began to form. The nobleman that to grab her by the waist and carry her away. Luckily, she didn't struggle anymore. His current plan right now was to flee the chaos on horseback and hopefully make his way towards an estate near the capital.

Sadly, he wasn't going to get off that easily.

As the nobleman managed to exit the alleyway, he was greeted by a horrific sight of a large metal bird landing on the ground as several armored men and two Warrior Bunnies exited from its back. The nobleman realized in horror that these were the foreigners who come from beyond the GATE. Worse, it seems that also formed an alliance with the Warrior Bunnies and are no doubt here to get their people back. Realizing that he has a Warrior Bunny slave, much less one who is a child, the nobleman quickly tried to make a run for it.

Such action was necessary as one of the armored soldiers spotted him as he motioned the others to follow. The two adult Warrior Bunnies made a beeline towards him at lightning speed as they see he has one of their own in his arms. Before he could react, the nobleman screamed in pain as the Warrior Bunny child managed to wake up and lift his shirt up, biting him on the side as blood was drawn. He was forced to let go as the Warrior Bunny child fell to the ground.

Nobleman: (painful scream) "ARGH! You little bitch! I'll-!"

The Nobleman tried to reach down to grab her, but the Warrior Bunny child managed to grab a slab of rock and bash him on the side of the head, causing the man to fall down and stunning him long enough to be captured. The armored soldiers quickly moved in to subdue him while the two Warrior Bunnies attended to the child as she cried and hugged her rescuers. Meanwhile, that same Nobleman is seen screaming in rage as he demands the armored soldiers to release him.

Nobleman: (hateful glare) "Let go of me you barbarians! Do you know who I am?! I swear I'll-!"

As the downed nobleman screamed and cursed, one of the armored soldiers came up to him and raised while looked like a staff into the air. Before he could react, he was suddenly bashed in the face and knocked unconscious.

[1 HOUR AND 30 MINUTES AGO] 

As the Doctors and Nurses tended to their new guests from the second GATE, Lt. General Sergei Kushnirov was currently discussing plans about attacking multiple cities and towns that involve slavery. Normally JRF1 would be involved in this meeting, but currently they are given another task of talking and explaining to their 'Japanese' guests about who they are after learning all they can about where they come from. Even Queen Tyuule has decided to stay behind, along with three others, to help explain their situation to their new guests.

Currently, Sergei is talking with a man named Col. Reggie Stone.

Sergei: (nods) "Colonel, glad to see you here."

Reggie: (salutes) "It's good to see you as well sir. I take it you have a mission for me?"

Sergei: (nods) "Indeed."

Sergei motions Reggie to a holo-table to show the holographic image of what looks like a Medieval city.

Sergei: "What you're looking at right now is the City of Palos. This city is infamous for being one of the largest cities involving slavery, second only to the Capital itself. Your mission is for you and two other battalions to capture the city and free any slaves that are in there. Intel reports that some slaves in that city are Warrior Bunnies, so saving them is your first priority. You will also be supported by some Warrior Bunnies who will accompany you."

Reggie: (nods) "I understand sir. What out the other cites or towns near Palos? Shouldn't they be delt with first?"

Sergei: "Other units will take care of that. We plan to launch multiple, simultaneous attacks in order to confuse, disorganize, and divide the Empire's forces. We now have satellites in the air, so we'll be able to track their movements."

Sergei turned to look at Reggie fully.

Sergei: "We take these cities and towns; we'll punch a hole in the Empire's slave trading Business."

Reggie: (nods) "Understood sir. Is there anything else I should know?"

Sergei: (shakes head) "Negative. Suit up and prepare for deployment. Mission will start in 1 hour. Dismissed."

Reggie: (salutes) "Sir!"

Col. Reggie Stone leaves as Operation: DOMINO'S FALL begins.

========== (Scene Change) ==========

[PRESENT TIME]

Back with the siege on the city, joint Canadian and Warrior Bunny forces were currently sweeping the city as they easily eliminated the defenders and began freeing any slaves they come across. The walls that held the defenders were easily obliterated, leaving an opening for ground forces to enter into the city.

The entire city was in a full-blown panic as the Canadians and Warrior Bunnies attacked the city. Explosions rang out as buildings collapsed and many people were sent flying while smoke was beginning to rise. Strangely enough, the places struck either had few people there or were military related, avoiding civilian areas. Imperial Officers desperately tried to rally soldiers who survived the first bombardment, while also trying to organize the city's defenses. The city's defenders all fired arrows, spears, ballistae, and catapults, but they've all proven to be useless as the Canadian forces had Vibranium armor and energy shields that protected their soldiers, vehicles, and mechs. Their primitive weapons didn't make a single dent as they pushed forward.

Many Imperial and Mercenary forces were in a state of shock and disbelief at the military force they were fighting against. The sight of the steel giants made many of them faint or get on their knees and pray to whatever god would listen. The battle had just barely begun, and morale was already dropping at a rapid pace. 

========== (Scene Change) ==========

Back at the Canadian base, the Japanese civilians have been fully healed and all of them are centered in what looks like a gym with seats. Everyone is being seated as they were told that people will come in to give them a presentation on who the people of Canada really are and where they come from. Many Japanese were still confused, but they remained seated as many were anxious to get the answer's they all needed.

Eventually the door open and it revealed the same people who save them, along with some new guests. The Japanese were surprised to see it was the members of Joint Recon Force 1 and Ultron, but they were also shocked to see the appearance of the Warrior Bunnies. Some Japanese who were anime fans, mainly those who are basically furries, were extremely happy to see basically real-life bunny girls.

Anyway, after reviewing the data and history about the 'Parallel' Earth the Japanese come from, the Alternate humans were honestly shocked to know that Japan was still around and not annexed. However, this also worried them since they'll have to explain the situation to these 'Parallel' Japanese as they were designated as and tell them of their world's history. Honestly, they were very worried about their reactions, specifically their world's version of WW2 and what happened to their counterparts.

Truth be told, Queen Tyuule and her three subordinates were informed about the Canadians history... including their wars. The Warrior Bunnies were honestly quite horrified of the violent and destructive wars the Canadian people fought. Worse, they were even told and witnessed the numerous war crimes their committed, including the part that involved near genocide and slavery. They were glad however to see that they had changed their ways for the better and no longer committed such crimes. They were also glad to know they deeply regretted their actions and sought to fix the wrongs they committed over the centuries.

Normally Tyuule and her Warrior Bunnies would be disgusted at their past actions, but after learning why they did what they did, they began to understand. As much as she hated to admit it, if Tyuule was in the same position the Canadians were in many years ago, she and her people would probably do the same thing towards the Empire such as the near genocide of their civilians and destroying their nations, leaving them completely defenseless. So Tyuule and her Warrior Bunnies don't think differently of their Canadian allies since they know they do the same thing if they were in their shoes.

Back to the matter at hand, Marcus began introducing himself, his team, Ultron and Queen Tyuule and her Warrior Bunnies.

Marcus: "It's nice to see that all of you are alive and well. We understand that many of you have questions that you all desperately want answers to. However, before that can happen, there has to be some things you must know and questions we all need you to answer first. We ask that you all answer with complete honesty. Sounds good?"

Marcus was currently using a translator to help communicate with the people in the room. It worked as the Japanese in the room nodded in agreement.

Marcus: "Tell me, have any of you ever heard the theory of the possible existence of a Parallel or Alternate Earth?"

The Japanese were confused at the question, but there were some historians with then that are experts in the matter.

Japanese Historian: "Well... yes actually. The theory states that there are infinite Earth's that are created based on our thoughts or decisions. It's theorized that with every choice we make, we literally create another Earth. It's stated that history branches in two with one Earth where we made the choice and the other Earth where we didn't."

Marcus: "Basically you're saying that billions of people, making billions or choices, leads to the creation of Infinite Earths, correct?"

Japanese Historian: (nods) "Yes. It's stated that there could be Parallel Earth's that can be so similar to our own, that you can spend a lifetime searching for any distinction. Others are said to be more radically different; they defy comprehension."

After hearing the explanation, slowly but surely, the realization began to draw on them. Noriko was the one to who spoke up.

Noriko: (shocked) "Wait... are you saying you people are-?"

Marcus: (nods) "Yes. As crazy as this may sound, we soon learned that you are not the same Japanese from our Earth. It's the same for you as we are not the same Canadians that you know of from your Earth. To be blunt, we Canadians come from an alternate version of Earth, one with a very different form of history compared to your own."

Slowly the realization began to hit the Japanese like a wrecking ball. They now began to understand that these Canadians were not the ones from their Earth, but instead a Parallel/Alternate one that seems to be vastly different than their own compared to their Earth. That same Japanese historian spoke up.

Japanese Historian: (curious) "How different is your Earth compared to ours?"

Marcus gave Ultron a look and spoke.

Ultron: "We have concluded that our two Earth's are relatively the same. Both our worlds have the same size, shape, and landmass. Our two Earth's are basically mirror images of one another. The one difference our two Earth's have is the different borders between nations and world history."

Japanese Historian: (curious) "How different is it?"

Ultron: "We will tell you all soon."

Ulrich: "I'm sure that you all have noticed the GATE that all of you were forced to travel through, right?"

The Japanese nodded.

Ulrich: "Our scientists have concluded that the GATE, the structure that you all went through, is theoretically a dimensional portal that connects two different worlds. Somehow the GATE managed to break the dimensional barrier that separates our two Earth's and connect them together on this world."

The Japanese in the room started to understand but then began to realize something.

Japanese Civilian #1: (confused) "You said the GATE connects two different worlds through a dimensional portal, right? Does that mean a GATE opened on your Earth?"

Marcus: (nods) "Yes, a GATE structure opened in L.A., California during a chemical gas attack by terrorists. This happened a month ago before the second GATE you all went through appeared."

That surprised the Japanese in the room to know they've been here a lot longer than them but were shocked to know that LA was hit by a gas attack.

Noriko: (shocked) "A chemical gas attack?"

Marcus: "I can assure you all that we'll get to that point soon. Right now, me and my team here, along with Ultron and the Warrior Bunnies are here to give you all a history lesson about our world and the recent events that transpired here on this fantasy world."

Ultron then spoke up.

Ultron: "Furthermore, in order to avoid confusion, your people have been given a designation in order to help differentiate between our two people."

Japanese Civilian #2: (confused) "A designation?"

Ultron: (nods) "Yes. For simplicities sakes, you Japanese and the humans from your Earth are designated as Parallel Humans. We on the other hand are to be called as Alternate Humans. This is to make sure there is no confusion between our two people's."

Marcus: "What we plan to tell you now is the history of our version of Earth and how the Canada from your world is vastly different compared to our own."

Japanese Civilian #3: (confused) "How different is Canada on your Earth?"

Marcus: "After the data we learned from your devices, our version of Canada is radically different compared to your world's version. As a matter of fact, THIS is our version of Canada."

Marcus types on his Tac-Pad on his wrist and a holographic screen pops up. The Parallel Japanese were shocked and confused when they saw the familiar territory of North America, but the boarder seems to be different.

(A/N: Just imagine the state of Virginia being united and focus on the green parts.)

Marcus: "If you're wondering about the green parts, those are our borders and the amount of territory we have."

The Japanese in the room were both shocked and confused at the sight of a different North America. It looked as if the nations of America, Canada, Greenland, Cuba, and Puerto Rico merged together into a singular nation.

Noriko: (confused) "I don't understand? That's Canada?"

Marcus: (nods) "Indeed. What you're all seeing right now is OUR version of Canada. Or at least a different version of it in our world."

Noriko: (confused) "But what about America? What happened to that nation? The one involving the 13 colonies and George Washington."

Soon the other Japanese asked the same question as they wanted to know how such a big nation came to existence.

Marcus: "I believe it's best we all start from the beginning, specifically an event that changed the world forever. In your world, you called it the American Revolution. But for us? We called it a different name... the Canadian Revolution."

More holographic screens begin to appear as the Canadians begin telling their world history. 

========== (Scene Change) ==========

Several bodies fell to the ground as nearly all of them had holes in the center of their foreheads. Canadian Marines gunned downed and eliminated any hostiles that came their way while important figures were taken down with non-lethal methods for interrogation. When it came to freeing the slaves, the Warrior Bunnies helped calm them down to show they weren't hostile towards them.

An Archer popped out from a window and fired an arrow at the nearest warrior bunny. However, the Canadian Marine was quick to grab the arrow and break it before it can kill her. As a result, that same archer was riddled with gauss rounds, literally shredding the guy to pieces. The Warrior Bunny looked at the Canadian Marine and gave him a thankful nod as they all proceeded forward.

A couple of men with swords or daggers were in an alleyway as they tried to set up an ambush. However, thanks to the motion trackers built into the helmets HUDs, their attempted attacks were futile. At least three of them were killed by Marines firing their HBRa3 Assault Rifles. One swordsman was blasted in half when one Marine shot his KRM-262, severing his upper half from his lower half. The last one however managed to get too close and knock a Marines weapon out of their hand in order to decapitate them. The Marine quickly retaliated by extending a device that formed into a Katana. Pulling the blade from the sheath, the UCAF Marine did a quick draw and sliced the man in half. The blade showed to have a gleam to it as it was made of Vibranium.

Multiple MRAP Pitbulls and M118 Fastback are seen being dropped off by a V-120 Valkyrie. These vehicles are moving in to help secure vital positions with infantry supporting them. Their speed, mobility, and firepower help them quickly gain ground and eliminate enemy forces approaching them.

Col. Reggie Stone watches the whole thing play out. In just under 20 minutes, thanks to the knowledge and the terrain, the UCAF was able to take over 3/4 of the city. It was a simple matter as they were able to destroy their defenses and eliminate their communications in order to prevent reinforcements. Then again, reinforcements might never show up as he learned that the other Canadian military units have also launched their attacks. Such actions will no doubt cause the Imperial Army to divide their forces and stretch them too thin to the point they can no longer hold the cities and towns they occupied.

The Colonel was cut off from his thoughts when a Canadian Marine and Warrior Bunny approached him.

UCAF Marine: (salutes) "Sir! We're able to capture over 3/4th of the city and nearly freed all of the slaves."

WB: "However, we're received reports that the last of the slaves are in the stronghold where the City's lord is located. Some of the slaves that just to happen to be Warrior Bunnies."

Looking at the direction, Col. Stone can see a building that is relatively untouched and looks to be very fancy. He had also received reports that the last of the defenders are surrounding the building in what seems to be like a last stand. There was no doubt in his mind that the ones guarding the place it where the leader of the city is located at.

Reggie: (nods) "Alright. Spare whatever forces we can and assault the building. Free the slaves, Warrior Bunnies especially, and capture the city's Lord. He may have info we might need. Let's go!"

Soon they all moved towards the building, ready to finish this battle once and for all.

========== (Scene Change) ==========

The Parallel Japanese were in a total state of shock at what they've learned. Marcus began to tell the events of before and after the Canadian Revolution. They were honestly shocked to know that instead of just 13 colonies rebelling from the British, it was instead ALL of the colonies of British North America that banded together to form the Continental Army. It was like America and Canada merged together to form a single nation. They were even more shocked to know that the same events still happened, but July 4th was different since they went for a different name. While they still had the words 'United States' in their name, instead of naming their nation America, they instead chose the name Canada. Soon they also began to understand why George Washington is considered Canadian as they see videos of him in inaugurated as the 1st Canadian President in Washington DC.

The Parallel Japanese looked at each other in shock as they all began talking amongst themselves.

Japanese Civilian #1: (shocked) "I don't believe it. Canada had essentially become America in that world."

Japanese Civilian #2: (shocked) "I wonder how this event changed the course of human history?"

Japanese Civilian #3: (shocked) "I can only imagine the reactions of both Canada and America when they learn about this."

Japanese Civilian #4: (shocked) "I bet the people of America will flip in both shock and jealous while the people of Canada will be both overjoyed and enthusiastic to see this."

Japanese Civilian #5: (shocked) "Yeah no kidding. Especially since this version of the Canadians seem to be far more advanced compared to the USA."

Noriko Mochizuki just started at the holographic screen in shock. She just stared at the flag a Continental soldier was holding which showed the familiar shape of the red maple leaf surrounded by blue stars, and the red and white stripes on both sides.

Noriko Thoughts: "If Canada and America were one country, I bet this would be the result."

Ultron and the JRF1 continued with their talks and explained the events that followed. Some of it was pretty much the same such as the French Revolution, Manifest Destiny, Louisiana Purchase, and the Napoleonic Wars. It was the War of 1812 that soon became different in their history.

Ultron: "Tell us, what do you know about the War of 1812? At least in your world?"

The Japanese civilians gave each other looks before the Japanese Historian spoke again.

Japanese Historian: "The War of 1812 started when the British Royal Navy began to raid American merchant ships and kidnap its sailors to force them to serve the king. It angered the American people and caused them to launch an invasion into Canada for retaliation. Later it also caused the burning of the White House."

Ultron: (nods) "Yes, you are very right on that, but our version of the War of 1812 was different compared to yours. Unlike in your world, our version of the War of 1812 was purely of naval warfare."

Japanese Civilian #1: (confused) "Naval Warfare?"

Ultron looked to Marcus to help better explain.

Marcus: "The events following the War of 1812 were the same, except Canada fought the British Royal Navy on the seas. The Canadian military developed a new type of warship that helped us win the War of 1812. While the British Navy still used wooden ships, the Canadian Navy uses new steam powered ships made of steel called Ironclad Warships."

Images and videos are shown to show a familiar design of ship.

The Japanese civilians were shocked to see this. They were aware of Ironclad warships, but they only came out many decades later. They watched a video play out as the Canadian Ironclads decimate and destroy multiple British Warships. They can see that the British were suffering massive casualties while the Canadians nearly suffered little to none. Soon Marcus began to explain how they actually WON the War of 1812 by decimating the British Royal Navy, causing them to surrender, release their captured citizens, and pay massive reparations. This made the Japanese wonder about the reactions of the UK in their world at how the War of 1812 ended with them losing instead of it being a stalemate.

Both Marcus and Ultron continued to explain about the continuation of the Napoleonic Wars and the events after which were relatively considered the same. They talked about the Battle of Waterloo and how President James Monroe initiated the Monroe Doctrine. The difference however was that the Doctrine was a success due to the British Royal Navy being decimated in the year 1812. Soon they also began talking about the Texas Revolution, the Battle of the Alamo, and the Mexican-Canadian War, which is considered an alternate version of the Mexican-American War.

However, it was during the events of the Civil War did things start to go different. Both Ulrich and Roberta were chosen to explain the events due to their ancestry. The two introduced themselves and explained the events leading up to the Civil War which were relatively the same. The Canadians talked about the issue of slavery, John Brown's Harper Ferry's Raid and Abraham Lincoln's election to being President.

Soon they talked about how the slave states in the south chose succession due to fears of Lincoln getting rid of slavery. They talked about how nearly all the southern states except Virginia secede to form the Confederate States of America.

The Confederate flag is shown, and the Japanese recognize that it appears to be off a very different design. Instead of the usual X design, it looked more like a cross and the CSA colors seemed more reversed.

Ulrich: "Just like in your world, the formation of the CSA sparked the Canadian Civil War. Although sometimes it's called the Canadian-American War. For simplicity's sake, you may consider the Union as Canadians while the Confederates are Americans."

The Japanese nodded in understanding but were soon confused when they learned that Virginia didn't join the Confederacy.

Noriko: (confused) "Wait, why didn't Virginia join the Confederacy? I don't know much about the American Civil War, but it's clearly stated that Virginia chose to join the CSA to protect slavery." 

Roberta: "I can answer that. Virginia did attempt to join the Confederacy, but elements within the Virginia government were still loyal to the Union as they managed to stage a successful coup. This was thanks to two men named Francis Pierpont and Robert E. Lee."

Japanese Historian: (confused) "Wait what? But in the history books, it's said that Robert E. Lee joins the Confederacy and became its General."

Roberta: (nods) "That's true in your world. However, in our history, Francis Pierpont was able to convince Robert E. Lee to remain loyal to the Union, convincing him of the consequences that will happen if he joins the Confederacy. Being convinced, Lee would then gather soldiers loyal to him to stage a coup to overthrow individuals in the Virginian Government who were sympathetic to the Confederate cause. Thus, Virginia was reincorporated into the Union and didn't split. Eventually Lincoln would once again approach Robert E. Lee to lead the Union, and he accepted."

Roberta became aware that her ancestor was a traitor who joined the Confederacy in the Parallel Earth, much to her shock, horror, and disgust. She was both ashamed and angered to know that her ancestor would betray the very Union the founding fathers had created. Ulrich saw this and put a comforting hand on her shoulder, something she was thankful for. Soon they got back to the history and spoke about the first battle of the Civil War which was the Battle of Bull Run. Unlike in their timeline which was a Confederate victory, with Lee on the side of the Union, the Japanese were shown how the Union was victorious in the first battle.

This is when the Japanese began to understand just how different their world was as they were shocked to see an alternate history of the American Civil War or in this case the Canadian Civil War. However, a realization began to draw on them when they learned of their last names.

Japanese Civilian #2: (shocked) "Wait a moment. Your last names. Are you two-?"

Both Ulrich and Roberta gave a nod.

Roberta: (nods) "Yes, I'm a descendant of Robert E. Lee, the man who helped lead the Union to victory against the Confederacy."

Ulrich: (nods) "And I'm a descendant of Ulysses S. Grant and William T. Sherman. Two individuals who made an impact during the Canadian Civil War and were Lee's right-hand men."

The Japanese in the room were shocked to see that they were in the room with two individuals who are descendants of famous Civil War veterans, one of them being a loyalist to the Union.

Both Ulrich and Roberta continued their history. Soon they told the Japanese about a famous Prussian immigrant who helped turn the tide of the Civil War in the Union's favor. They talked about a man named Gerhard Zigmund and how he was famous for creating the M1860 Zigmund Bolt Action Rifle.

That was a shock to the Japanese as Bolt-Action Rifles in this world seemed to have come much earlier compared to their world. However, things started to go dark as both Ulrich and Roberta talked about an event called the Trent Affair and how it caused the British to enter the war on the side of the Confederacy, despite Lincoln's actions at releasing the Confederate Diplomats. Soon the Japanese see videos of British soldiers smashing through the naval blockade and assist the Americans in the Civil War. It was only during the Battle of Richmond did things began to turn in favor for the Canadians. After three bloody days, the Canadians won the battle which resulted in international help from China, Prussia, and Russia intervening on behalf of Canada.

Eventually the Canadian Civil War would end in the year 1862 and the complete destruction of the Confederacy. They also talked about how the British would be forced to pay reparations and how their actions would cause the rise of Anti-British sentiment in Canada. The Japanese were surprised at how the Civil War ended much earlier compared to their world's version of the American Civil War and was considered far less destructive. However, things once again turned dark as they explained how Lincoln kept slavery and how he ordered the destruction of the Underground railroad. Soon they talked about Lee's ascension to Presidency and how he expanded slavery to the other states, stating that slavery in Canada was allowed to exist in the many decades to come. Although Lincoln still created the Emancipation Proclamation but didn't release it until it was of absolute emergency. That was a major shock that Lincoln allowed slavery to continue to exist.

Noriko: (horrified) "Why would you do that? Why would you allow such a barbaric practice to continue to exist?"

Ulrich: (sigh) "Believe me, we aren't exactly proud that we allowed slavery to continue. However, I can assure you that things will get better for African-Canadians."

Roberta: "Plus, in our world, by allowing slavery to exist longer, things like the KKK, Jim Crow Laws, or the Silver Legion in your world within America don't exist. You'll see why and how Africans gained their freedom."

The Japanese gave each other looks but decided not to argue. They glanced at Marcus who was African who gave them a reassuring nod. Soon they continued on with the history lesson and the events that followed.

The JRF1 and Ultron talked about some events that were similar, but also different. They talked about the Alaska Purchase and how Ulysses S. Grant secured an alliance with Russia when he still became President. They then talked about the Second Industrial Revolution and the Birth of Germany which led to the creation of the League of the Three Emperors and how it was a success thanks to Canada's intervention.

They then began to talk about how Gerhard Zigmund developed improvements on Canadian rifles such as the creation of the M1890 Zigmund which was actually a semi-automatic rifle. Furthermore, they also see the creation of the first ever LMG called the M1890 Browning LMG. That was a shock to the Japanese as they knew that semi-automatic weapons or LMGs didn't enter into mass production or development until the events of WW1 and WW2, especially for both America and Canada. The weapons were shown in action as the Japanese watched videos of the Spanish-Canadian War and how the weapon had devastating effects on the Spanish forces.

Soon they talked about the end of the war which resulted in the complete and permanent annexation of Cuba and Puerto Rico. The Canadians also spoke about how they kept their deal with the Filipinos, allowing full independence and Emilio Aguinaldo was elected to be the first President. The Japanese were surprised to hear this as the Canadians told them that a war against the Philippines never happened in their world due to keeping their end of the bargain.

Eventually they talked about Theodore Roosevelt and these policies, however it was in the year 1905 that really caught the attention of the Japanese. They talked about how on March 18, the slave states in the south began to deteriorate because of how abolitionist movements began rising up not only in the north, but also the south, mainly a new generation of southerners. Soon they talked about a priest in Texas named Jimmy Gordan and how he made an impact in the South. They talked about how he preached about anti-slavery and calling Southerners hypocrites for allowing slavery, despite calling themselves Christians. Soon it got to a boiling point when Southerners from the old generation brutally murdered him in public, claiming that he's poisoning their children's minds. This was the spark that ignited the Southern Civil War.

The Japanese were both disturbed and horrified at Jimmy's death, but where shocked to see the children and grandchildren of the South rise up against their parents and grandparents to end slavery once and for all. They watched scenes of parents/grandparents and children/grandchildren killing each other in violent gun battles while the children/grandchildren begin freeing slaves.

Ulrich: "Eventually the Southern Civil War would come to an end when Teddy Roosevelt and the Canadian Government intervened to stop the bloodshed. In 1906, due to public pressure from abolitionists and international pressure from Canada's allies, Roosevelt would be forced to release the Emancipation Proclamation and the Government finally put an end to slavery."

Roberta: "Just like in your world, Teddy Roosevelt was a very racist man but unlike your worlds version, his alternate counterpart had a change of heart after having his eyes opened to how wrong he was towards Africans. The same for those like Native Americans. I mean, your version of Theodore Roosevelt held a firm belief in a 'racial hierarchy' where the white people stand on top. After the Southern Civil War, he learned to finally let go of such racial beliefs. Soon he and the federal government would install the 13th, 14th, and 15th amendments. This was widely celebrated in both the North and the South as many hated slavery. Southerners who were pro-slavery didn't like this, but they were of the old generation who were all dying out."

Ulrich: "There was still segregation between whites and blacks, but they were more tolerant towards each other. In our world, there is no KKK or Jim Crow laws. From what we learned in your world, the only reasons Americans in the south hated Africans was because Southerners were forced to do something they didn't want to do by the Federal Government. This caused them to be angry and took all of their hatred out on the Africans. In many ways, by allowing slavery to exist up until the 1900s, Africans were allowed not only their freedom but, in some ways, their equal rights by the benevolence of someone, and Southerners were now will to give them all that. By peacefully dissolving slavery in Canada, race relations between whites and blacks were more friendly and open minded compared to our American counterparts in your world."

The Japanese soon began to understand what the Canadian's meant. Obviously, slavery was terrible, but by allowing slavery to exist much longer and have it peacefully dissolved, albeit somewhat violently, they can see that Africans now have it easier compared to Africans in their world. They saw images of whites and blacks in stores, restaurants, and buses where they all are sitting in separate areas, but they can also see some places where they sit and work together. To the Japanese, it would seem that the USC is becoming a lot less racist compared to the USA in the 1900s.

Soon they continued on before they began speaking about a certain individual.

Marcus: "Tell me, have you people ever heard about a man named Adolf Hitler?"

Japanese Historian: (nods) Well yes actually. Adolf Hitler is considered one of the evilest and most hateful man in Human history."

Otto silent gulped in nervousness. He was very well aware of his ancestor's counterpart and was horrified to know that he turned Germany into the German version of the Fascist Britannia Empire. Otto felt shame knowing that his ancestor was a complete monster in the Japanese Parallel Earth and wondered how his version of Adolf Hitler would react if he saw his Parallel counterpart.

Marcus: (nods) "Yes we are aware of that. However, in our world we also have an Adolf Hitler in our world but is radically different than yours. In our world, Adolf Hitler never became leader of Germany and didn't invent the Nazi Party."

Now that shocked the Japanese in the room. Those who knew about the war in Europe during WW2 were well aware of the atrocities Hitler committed, especially during WW2. Marcus then motioned on of his soldiers to step forward to explain what they mean.

Otto: "Hello. I am Warrant Officer Otto von Hitler. You many know my ancestor as Adolf Hitler."

The Parallel Japanese recoiled in total shock. They couldn't believe that they were seeing a descendant of Adolf Hitler in their room. Before they can all respond, Otto was quick to speak up as he raised his hands.

Otto: "Wait please! I'm fully aware of what Adolf Hitler did in your world! But I can assure you that the Adolf Hitler from my world is very different compared to your own! Please just let me explain!"

Otto flinched as he saw the looks of fear and anger on the faces of the Japanese. However, he sighed in relief that they gave him a chance to explain.

Otto: (sigh) "Thank you."

Otto began to explain that the events of Hitler's life was the same up until the death of his parents, leaving him homeless.

Otto: "Up until this point, Hitler's life is the same. However, on one fateful day, his life would change forever. He was once sleeping under a crossing bridge until he witnessed a little boy drowning in the river. Without question, Hitler rushed to the boy's aid and got him out. After that, out of kindness, Hitler took the boy to his home and met his parents who thanked Hitler. It turns out the boy he saved was Jewish and he met a Jewish family. Soon they learned about Hitler's situation and offered him a place to stay at their home as thanks for saving their son. Hitler didn't like Jews at first but given his situation and seeing that there is no choice, Hitler accepted and stayed with the Jewish family. He also befriended the boys older brother named Kertz Wigin."

Now this surprised the Japanese people. Some of them were aware of Hitler's life and the poor conditions he was forced to endure. So, it was surprising to know he had a roof over his head, one provided from a Jewish family no less. They were shown images of Hitler's time with the Wigin family, and they saw how happy Hitler was at smiling at them.

Otto: "It was because of their kindness; Hitler became less and less hostile towards Jews. He even became best friends with Kertz Wigin since the two were actually of the same age while Hitler acted as an older brother figure for the little soon. Soon he went to art school in Vienna Academy and graduated at becoming a successful artist. After his graduation, he was met by the Wigin family who congratulated him. Hitler became so successful at becoming an artist that the Kaiser himself gave him the title of Vincent van Gogh. Eventually, he met a woman named Eva Braun and they had a daughter together. Coincidently, Kertz also found love and had a son. Soon Adolf's and Kertz's children met and the two fell in love. Adolf Hitler accepted his daughter's romantic relationship with the Jewish boy and Hitler officially became a family member of the Wigin family. Due to Adolf Hitler's fame, Kertz's son named Hansel would change his last name to Hansel Hitler. Thus, Hitler never became antisemitic towards Jews and promoted pro- Jewish sentiment to allow Germans to see them in a better light."

After Otto's explanation, the Japanese were once again shocked to hear this. Many were quite aware of Hitler's utter hatred towards the Jews, yet it was shocking to know that on another Earth, Hitler actually was friendly towards Jews and allowed someone of his own blood to marry into a Jewish family. So, it was quite shocking to know that Adolf Hitler became a famous artist instead of becoming a fascist dictator.

Noriko widens her eyes slightly as she recognizes what Otto is.

Noriko: (shocked) "Wait... does that mean your-?"

Otto: (smiles) "Yes. I'm Jewish and I grew up in a Jewish family. I am in fact a descendant of the Wigin family, the same family who saved Adolf Hitler from the darkness within himself."

After that, the Canadians in the room told them of a topic that many were nervous about... the two World Wars.

========== (Scene Change) ==========

Back in the City of Palos, Canadian forces and Warrior Bunnies were continuing their assault on the city. The Wyvern outposts nearby attempted to respond but were all suddenly and deliberately attack by Canadian forces before they could even respond. No survivors were allowed as all of them were mercilessly killed. The Canadians didn't want to take the chance. Additionally, this was to ensure that no messengers escaped to inform the Empire of the fall of Palos until it was deemed fit. 

Meanwhile, the people in the city were desperately trying to evacuate before the invaders could get to them. Among them were several important individuals such as merchants and businessmen who dealt with slavery and used them for their own pleasure. Rumors and stories about the invaders being allies to the Warrior Bunnies were shown to be true in the city of Palos. It was clear that they had come here to free the Warrior Bunnies who had been enslaved here. The merchants and businessmen were terrified at what the invaders will do to them, and all tried to make a run for it.

Normally they would've just run and flee for their lives, leaving the slaves behind. However, they were smart enough to know that the loss of their 'products' would be a heavy blow to their income that they can never recover from. Unable to let go of their greed, many had refused to leave their profits and goods. An example right now is a merchant currently marching down a cellar with a couple of mercenaries and thugs he hired to get the slaves. Torches were lit in the cellar, reveling iron bars to show the miserable environment the slaves on the other side, all of their bodies are covered in rags. The merchant grabbed his keys and opened the cell and ordered them to get up.

Merchant: (glares) "Get them up now! We need to leave!"

His men moved in to get the slaves, but the Merchant was annoyed and grinded his teeth in anger as some of the slaves were being stubborn, complaining about injuries or hunger. Worst case scenario, he'll be forced to possible leave some of them behind.

Merchant Thoughts: (glares) "NO! I came too far just to leave them now!"

The greedy bastard had servants clean out his gold and other valuables. The only thing he had to do next was reaching another populated city. Perhaps the capital might be a good idea as there might be some who will buy the slaves either as forced labor or expendable soldiers to replenish the Imperial Army.

Unfortunately, whatever hopes the merchant had been completely dashed out the window. Looking up, the man can hear shouts from upstairs, items crashing, the sounds to flesh being sliced, and bodies hitting the floor with a thud. The merchant instantly became scared.

Merchant: (scared) "What... W-What in Hardy's name is going on up there?!"

Sadly, the Merchant never got his answer as something disconnected his head from his body.

Deactivating their Optical Camouflage revealed to be 5x Canadian Sentinels. 

At the same time, leading them was a Sentinel Commander.

The rest of the Sentinels killed the remaining mercenaries and thugs in the cellar, either shooting them with their firearms or slicing them to death with their Katana's. Other Sentinel teams had secured the mansion, killing anyone who either attacked or was deemed a threat to them. The only ones they killed were just the guards while the servants immediately surrendered. Similar actions are being conducted in places that help slaves, no matter the number. The only exception are salves who were actually dangerous criminals and are then eliminated.

Sentinel #1: "Sir, we've secured the slaves and located three Warrior Bunnies among them."

The Sentinel Commander turned to see three women huddled together as they all looked beaten, bruised, and are clearly starving. Based on the rabbit ear appendages, they can clearly see they were their allies missing people.

Sentinel Commander: "Heal the injured and get ready to move them. Unless they're dangerous criminals, no slaves are to be left behind."

Sentinel#2: (nods) "Yes sir."

The Sentinels move in to help the slaves as they all heal their injures and get then back on their feet to move out.

========== (Scene Change) ==========

Back at the based, the Canadians were explained about the existence of the German Foreign Legion which was created after Germany annexed Alsace-Lorraine in the aftermath of the Franco-Prussian War. They spoke about President Roosevelt's visit and negotiations with Kaiser Wilhelm II, explaining the need to give equal rights to the French and French-German people living in Alsace-Lorraine the same way they did to the French and French-Canadians living in Quebec. They agreed which helped deepen the bond between the committees with the German people and remain loyal to the Empire. This seemed to make the Japanese surprised by this scenario and wondered how the French people will react when learning about this.

After some more minutes later, both Ultron and the JRF1 had just finished talking about their version of WW1 and the events that happened in the aftermath. Needless to say, the Japanese were absolutely shocked to see an alternate WW1, but they were also horrified to know that the USCs version of WWI resulted in over 80 million casualties, a horrific kill count compared to their 40 million. They were also surprised to know that Archduke Franz Ferdinand survived but were shocked to know that Britain ignited WW1 by bombing the French delegates and planting false evidence to start WW1.

However, what really got their attention was an alternate version of the Russian Revolution. The Japanese were surprised to see that Vladimir Lenin was sent by the British instead of the Germans. The most shocking part was Joseph Stalin who was actually a Priest instead to being a ruthless dictator. Also, they learned about Volkov and how he's actually Stalin's descendant. Not to mention that this alternate version of Stalin was AGAINST the Bolsheviks instead of working with them. This meant that Russia never fell to communism and the Tsar family was still around. And all of this was due to Canada intervening and helping the White Army.

But all of that paled in comparison to when Canada entered the war and brought with them radically advanced technologies that shouldn't have been invented yet. They watched as Canada developed an advanced version of the M14 Rifle with single shot automatic firing and how they developed the M7 Washington tank that seemed way too advanced for the time. However, what REALLY got their attention was the fact that Canada was the first nation to develop Jet Engines for their fighter planes. They saw the creation of the Stormcrow, and Valkyrie Fighters being equipped with jet engine on the back. They saw videos of them in action and the utter devastation their caused on the enemy. Also, they couldn't help but feel a bit weirded out so see Canadian soldiers wearing military uniforms very similar to Germany. Also, despite being segregated, that can see that White and Black Canadian soldiers seem more united compared to their American counterparts. They also learned that the Canadians helped give Irish independence to the people of Ireland and how the entire island of Ireland was now fully independent.

Not only that, but they also learn about the German Jewish Milita and how their actions helped them be seen in a better light by their fellow German people. They also watched videos of Adolf Hitler promoting Pro-Jewish sentiment in Germany, painting them that heroes of the Fatherland and reminiscing about how a Jewish family took him in which helped make him the man he is today. Even the Kaiser is see talking about the Jews in a good light. To the Japanese, this meant that events like the Holocaust won't happen in Germany. After that, they explained the invasion of Britain and the capture of the British Royal family which finally ended the war.

To the Japanese, what they were seeing was like an alternate history if the Central Powers won and both America and Russia joined them on their side of the conflict. Not only that, but they witnessed the creation of technology and weapons that were supposed to be developed and invented many decades later. It would seem that the Alternate Earth the Canadians come from is far more advanced compared to their own Earth.

Noriko: (shocked) "I don't believe this... None of this can't be real."

Volkov: (nods) "Believe me. All of this is true. No offense, but after learning about your Parallel Earth, your world seems to be far less advanced compared to our world."

After that, the JRF1 talked about the events that came after. They talked about that with Archduke Franz Ferdinand surviving his assassination, the man went on to help establish the United States of Austria-Hungary and how it was now far more stable thanks to economic and military reforms compared to their version of the Austro-Hungarian Empire. They soon talked about the Treaty of Versailles and how it was considered the fairer compared to their world, except Britain. Apparently, Canada blamed Britain for dragging them into a war they never wanted to get involved in and enforced onto them the strictest and harshest punishments possible. Also, in their world, Canada seemed to have disbanded the British Commonwealth, allowing all of their Colonies to be free and independent nations. Even the colonies of France were forced to give up their colonies and make them independent nations.

Japanese Historian: (surprised) "So Britain and France were forced to give up their colonies and withdraw all their soldiers from those now independent nations? I take it this also caused them to go into an economic decline as well?"

Marcus: (nods) "Yes. While it may sound cruel, back then Canadians were VERY anti-British at the time. They wanted payback and revenge for all the pain, misery and suffering they inflicted upon us."

Ultron: "Anyway, a few years after the Great War, France fell to a revolution and a political party known as Action Francaise rose to power. Soon a man named Charles XI rose to power and overthrew the government, installing himself as King. He would go on the create the Fascist Vichy France and his dream was to relive the old glory days of the French Empire. In other words, France essentially turned to fascism and became a fascist nation."

The Parallel Japanese widen their eyes in horror. They couldn't believe that France fell to fascism. Soon the Canadians talked about how some events were similar like Benito Mussolini still rising to power and how the Italian people embraced Fascism. Another event is the Chinese Civil War and how it was the same against Mao Zedong and his Communist Rebels. The difference is that Russia got involved and sided with the Kuomintang Government. Wang Li, who was actually Chinese, talked about how Russia was very anti-communist after the Russian Civil War, and they feared Mao Zedong rising to power. As a result, Joseph Stalin and Tsar Nicholas II ordered the Russian army to intervene on the side of the Kuomintang in order to crush the Chinese communist. Eventually, Mao was captured and executed while his communist army was destroyed, reunifying the nation into the United Republic of China.

An image of modern-day China in the Alternate Earth is shown.

The Japanese in the room were shocked to see that China never fell to Communism like Russia. and Mao Zedong was killed much earlier than in their world.

Noriko: (shocked) "Does this mean that China never fell to Communism?"

Wang: (nods) "Yes. With Russia's help, Chiang Kai-shek and the Kuomintang won the civil war and unified China under a non-communist banner."

Wang Li also began to talk about the alliance between Canada, Russia, and China and how this alliance helped boost their economy, especially when the Great Depression hit in 1929. Furthermore, they also spoke about the existence of the German SS, except it was made into an intelligence service branch rather than a para-military organization and the Waffen SS would become Germany's elite special forces. However, thing soon turned for the worst when they learned the fate of Britain. The Canadians talked about a man named King George VI of the British Royal family forcefully took and overthrew the constitutional monarchy, executing nearly all of the political figures while imprisoning some in the process. The British people fully supported their King and his coup as they wanted revenge for the utter humiliation and loss during WW1, especially against Canada. From there, they explained how King George VI went on to establish the Holy Britannian Empire.

The Canadians also explained and showed videos to the Parallel Japanese about how King George VI made hate speeches of Anti-Canadian sentiment and how he blamed them for their suffering, which he kind of wasn't wrong. The Parallel Japanese saw how the British people started to become radical, doing the Nazi salute and shouting the words 'Long Live Britannia!' multiple times. The Parallel Japanese were disturbed to see that as it remined them of Nazi Germany and their racist ideals.

Knowing that Queen Elizabeth Il was his daughter, it made them wonder how she'll react if she was seeing and hearing this right now.

Otto: (nods) "Yes, in many ways, Great Britain had essentially become Nazi Germany in our world and King George VI would become our world's version of Adolf Hitler."

The Parallel Japanese tried to process the words Otto had said to them. From their perspective, it looked like the Alternate Earth was doing the UNO Reverse Card when it comes to their history.

Continuing on, the Canadian's also talked about how King George VI committed one of the worst war crimes in human history which was called the 'Great Purge'. They talked about how Britannia invaded the Republic of Ireland and how the British rounded up the entire Irish population into Concentration Camps. They explain how Ireland had a population of over 4,210,000 people, yet after entering the Camps, it was estimated that over 4 million Irish men, women, and children would die in those camps, leaving only 210,00 Irish citizens left. The Canadians have also talked about how their reintroduced African slavery into their society and how they also purged other minorities in Britain like Jews, Gays, Gypsy, etc. They also talked about Winston Churchill and how he had a hand in the concentration camps by being its head leader.

This horrified the Japanese as they couldn't believe that the British in the Alternate Earth would commit such war crimes on mass genocide. The British in this world have truly become the Nazis on the Alternate Earth. As for Winston Churchill, it made them wonder how people of the UK will react to know that Churchill essentially became like Heinrich Himmler.

Noriko: (confused) "Wait, what about his brother? King Edward?"

Ultron: "King Edward VIII was loyal to the cause and become one of the worst war criminals in human history. There is more to his side of the family, but we'll explain more on that in due time."

Noriko: (confused) "And Queen Elizabeth II?"

The Canadians looked at each other with unsure looks on their face. It was Ulrich who spoke up with a grim tone in his voice.

Ulrich: (grim tone) "I'm... I'm sorry to tell you this, but she was actually a huge supporter of her father's actions. She was fully aware of the Great Purge and supported it completely. She was even known to give hateful and racist speeches against not only the Irish, but also against the people of Canada and the United Central Alliance."

Videos were shown on the holo-screen to show a young Queen Elizabeth II giving speeches about anti-Canadian, anti-German, and anti-Irish speeches while doing the Nazi salute and shouting the words 'Lond Live Britannia!' multiple times. The Japanese in the room couldn't believe what they were seeing. They knew Queen Elizabeth Il and how she was considered a benevolent person in their world. But this version of her is actually pure evil. They couldn't believe this version of her would commit such heinous crimes.

From there, they explain more about how more nations turned to fascism such as Argentina and South Africa, leading them on a genocidal rampage like the 'Lesotho Genocide'. Once again, this horrified the Japanese, seeing such violent killings and the slaughter of innocents due to racial belief and lust for power.

The Canadians continued on to explain what went on in Canada. What shocked the Japanese was the creation of the AR-36 Garand Assault Rifle. This shocked them to know the Canadians were able to create an assault rifle at least decades earlier and how it was an alternate version of the M1 Garand. Images and videos were shown to see the weapon in action. The Canadians explained its origins and where it was based off of.

Soon the Canadians talked about the Sino-Japanese War and the start of WW2 when Britan and France launched a surprise attack on German and Austria. They explained about the battles that went on and the atrocities committed by the Axis Entente Powers. They even explained how Britanna and France made tremendous advancements in technology and weapons that can rival the Canadian and German military. They also saw how the British soldiers looked more armored and menacing while also wielding new weapons. 

During the war, the Canadians explained about a legendary Afro-German soldier named Sanguinius Fortuna AKA the Iron Barricade. They explain and show footages of Sanguinius holding off waves of Britannian and French soldiers in the city of Frankfurt. After surviving the Canadians explained how the German people regarded him as a hero and newly elected kaiser Wilhelm III used his actions to unify all of German people (which included all the whites, blacks, jews, etc.) under a singer banner to fight against the Axis Powers. This seemed to amaze the Japanese people given the fact that this alternate version of Germany never became full on Nazis in this timeline.

Next, they soon explained Canada's involvement in the war, along with Mexico. They explained about the attack on Pearl Harbor, but they also talked about how Britannia launched an attack on Canada's East Coast and how they landed troops on their soil as they killed over 2,175,250 million Canadian civilians while also kidnapping 1 thousand Canadians process. They also spoke about how Spain launched an unprovoked attack on Mexico, before being driven off and assisted by Brazil.

This was shocking to the Japanese. While the Pearl Harbor incident happened in their world, an unproved attack on the American mainland never happened in their world. This is what led the Presidents of both Canada and Mexico to enter the war on the side of the United Central Alliance.

Ulrich: (nods) "Yes. Because of their unprovoked attack, FDR and the people of Canada were determined to end their issue with Britain once and for all. As you can see that for the fourth and final time, a war will happen between Canada and Britain. From the perspective of Canada, WW2 would be seen as finally setting the score against the British, who have always been their long-time adversaries, once and for all. I won't lie. When Canadian and British forces clashed against each other, both sides were determined to wipe each other out no matter the cost."

The Parallel Japanese gave each other looks. It was quite clear that the people of Canada held a deep seeded hatred and bitter grudge against Britain. Considering what the British did in their world, they couldn't blame them. But it was seen as being weird since Canada and America have such friendly relations with Britian compared to the USCs world.

Back in Europe, they also begin to explain the Alsace-Lorraine massacre which involved the fascist French massacring their own people who refused to fight against Germany and went against their fascist counterpart. They also explained about the discrimination they faced so it was pretty easy and heartless for the fascist French to murder their own people. The Canadians further explained that those who survived the massacre would vow for revenge, willingly joining the German military or other allied nations to fight a war against fascist France. As horrified as the Japanese were, they could only imagine how their version of the French people will react when they see just how evil their alternate counterparts are.

Back with Canada's mobilization of its military, the Canadian's explained the creation of new war machines they were able to produce. Due to Albert Einstein visiting Canada, he helped in developed new and advanced technology for Canada. The Parallel Japanese were shocked to see the development and mass production of Helicopters and Jet Fighters into the Canadian military arsenal. They can even see tanks that remined them of the Abrams series. They couldn't believe that such technology was developed much earlier compared to their timeline. The Canadian's explained how this advancement in technology helped give them an edge against the Fascist nations, especially the British. Not only that, but they see Canadian soldiers wearing German military uniforms but more of a modern look.

(A/N: Ignore the German Empire flag and replace it with the Canadian Battle Flag. This is the WW2 combat military uniform worn by the Alternate Canadians.) 

Soon the Japanese learned that FDR desegrated the military much earlier and how both whites and blacks fought together in the same unit. Also, unlike the USA who fought on two fronts, the USC was forced to fight on three fronts which are the Pacific Front, European Front, and the South American Front. This is where the Japanese learned the Mexicans and Canadians fought against Argentina before focusing on dealing with the Empire of Japan. Europe was left alone, mainly because Britannia managed to recreate a powerful navy, one in which Canada wasn't ready to deal with at the time.

After dealing with Argentina and liberating South America, the Canadians showed footages of their people fighting against their alternate WW2 Japanese counterparts and how they helped liberate China along with other nations like Australia, India, and New Zealand. They also explained one of Canada's most famous military units which was the 244th Infantry Regiment or the Dragon Battalion as they were called and what made them unique was that they were made of Chinese-Canadians who were either immigrants or were born in the country.

Soon they pushed Imperial Japan out of Asia through Korea and explained the plan to launch a final attack on the Japanese homeland. Before that could happen, the Canadians explained about the 'Kyūjō Incident' which actually happened in their timeline. As such, the Canadians were forced to explain to the Parallel Japanese that Hideki Tojo and his loyalists succeeded in overthrowing Emperor Hirohito in a violent coup and they're able to murder both him and the nearly the entire Royal family, making sure it looked like an 'accident' to ensure they appear blameless. In a speech, the Canadians explained how Tojo was able to convince the alternate Japanese people that the allies were responsible for the 'murder' of their beloved Emperor and the entire Royal family due to another firebombing raid, thus outraging and rallying the people to never surrender.

The reactions were unsurprising as all of the Japanese people were both shocked and horrified after learning what happened to their Emperor.

Japanese Historian: (horrified) "NANI?!?!?! (WHAT?!?!?!) Emperor Hirohito was murdered?! He was killed in a coup led by Hideki Tojo?!"

Marcus: (nods) "It's all true unfortunately. The Japanese Emperor was murdered before he could try to negotiate for a surrender towards the allies. For the record, Hirohito did indeed try to surrender unconditionally as he understood how the war was going and that if it kept on going, it would only lead to the downfall of Japan and the total extinction of the Japanese people."

Ultron: "However, with Emperor Hirohito and the Royal family members killed in the coup, there was nothing to stop the Japanese from surrendering which unfortunately meant Japan would meet a tragic fate."

Noriko: (scared) "What... What do you mean?"

Marcus: (regretful sigh) "We... shall explain on this... next topic."

With Emperor Hirohito dead and Japan still refusing to surrender, the Canadians were then forced to talk about the commencement of Operation: DOWNFALL, much to the shock of the Japanese.

Japanese Historian: (shocked) "What?! Operation: DOWNFALL happened on your Earth?!"

Marcus: (nods) "Yes. We didn't develop the Atomic Bomb at the time, and we were forced to invade the mainland in order to stop Japan once and for all."

Ulrich: "Plus, with Emperor Hirohito dead, there was really no stopping both side from massacring each other. It was these factors, along with the threat of a Soviet invasion that led to Japan surrendering. Unfortunately, because none of these things happened in our timeline due to certain events we showed you, I'm afraid I have to tell you all that Japan got a bad ending after WW2."

And Ulrich was right as things soon got dark when the Canadians explained that Operation: DOYVNFALL was a success, but not without consequences. With a heavy heart, they told the Japanese of one of the worst war crimes they committed and that was helping the Chinese in committing total war on the Japanese. The Canadians were forced to show videos of Canadian soldiers capturing and handing over Japanese civilians to the Chinese soldiers who then proceeded to kill them. Also, they see Canadian soldiers capturing and executing ALL Japanese soldiers, including those who were non-combatants. What's worse is that they captured all the military and government officials before executing all of them publicly.

In the end, they explained how there was on 500,000 thousand Japanese civilians left due to the massacre the Chinese committed and how Canada had a hand in helping them, along with the nations of Australia, India, and New Zealand. Even Russia was involved as they help invade and occupy the island of Hokkaido. They then explained how Japan was later permanently annexed by China and Russia due to fears of Japanese rising to power again. Thus, Japan no longer exists in their world.

Needless to say, that after the explanation, Noriko and her fellow Japanese were either crying or outraged at the total war in Japan that resulted in the country being annexed by the Russian Empire and the United Republic of China. Meanwhile, their people were killed, and only 500,000 survived the total war.

Japanese Civilian: #1: (outraged) "How could you do this?! How could you do that to Japan?!"

Some of the Canadians in the room flinched at his outburst, none more so than Wang Li who was Chinese and felt great shame for what her ancestors did. Truth be told, she had ancestors in her family that served in the Chinese army during WW2 and was told how some of them were responsible for massacring Japanese civilians during the invasion of Japan.

As that was happening, the Japanese in the room were either scream in either horror or outrage at what happened to their counterparts.

Japanese Civilian #1: (outraged) "I can't believe this!"

Japanese Civilian #2: (shocked) "I know, right?!"

Japanese Civilian #3: (horrified cry) "This can't be real! It has to be a nightmare!"

Logan: (blunt tone) "It's real you idiots."

Wang Li, who was near him, glared at Logan and elbowed him on the side, but the latter just shrugged and let out a 'meh'.

Noriko had tears streaming down her face after witnessing the horrible fate of her people's counterparts.

Noriko: (cries) "How could you allow this... who could you allow China and Russia to annex our homeland?! How could you help the Chinese massacre over 85% of our people?!"

At that point many of the Japanese people got up from their seats and screamed at them in anger.

Japanese Civilian #1: (hateful glare) "MURDERERS!!!"

Japanese Civilian #2: (hateful glare) "MONSTERS!!!"

Japanese Civilian (hateful glare) "GENOCIDAL MANIACS!!!"

Japanese Civilian (hateful glare) "YOU AREN'T NO DIFFERENT FROM THOSE FASCISTS, FUCKERS!!!"

Japanese Civilian #5: (hateful glare) "I'D SAY WHAT OUR ANCESTORS DID AT PEARL HARBOR WAS ENTIRELY JUSTIFIABLE!!! YOU WESTERN IMPERIALS DESERVED TO BE BOMBED!!!"

The Canadians in the room weren't surprised at the reactions the Japanese were giving them. They fully expected this kind of reaction to happen. Although they were annoyed when they heard the last comment about Pearl Harbor. Still, they knew that it didn't help ease the guilt within their hearts. They all knew that one thing was true; this is one of the most heinous crimes in their history.

Marcus: (grimaced) "We're sorry. I understand that your people are anger for what we did to your people's counterparts. You have every right to be angry at us."

A 20-year-old male Japanese glared at the Canadians hatefully.

Japanese Civilian: (hateful glare) "No shit asshole! At least our Emperor and the Royal Family are still alive, and our country is still independent!"

Ulrich: "Look no offense, but can you say that your people were any different? Can you honestly tell us that you Japanese were innocent in WW2?"

Noriko: (glares) "I can't deny that our Imperial nations has committed war crimes, but that gives you Canadians no right to commit genocide on our people!"

Just as things were about to get even worse, this is when both Takashi Honzo and Mari 'Kurokawa' Doss. Despite their Japanese lineage, they hope to tell their people's counterparts to not lash out and trying to attack them.

Takashi: (glares) "Alright enough! That's enough! I understand your anger! Believe me, I do! As a fellow Japanese like yourselves, your reactions are completely justifiable! I get it, but you have to understand that this was a VERY different time. While I most certainly can't say I approve of what they've done to our people, it's understandable why they did this was because of the atrocities we committed against their people."

Mari: "Look you people are within your right to be outraged against the Canadians. However, what happened in the past had already happened. We can't change it. But I PROMISE you that things are BETTER for our people. The Japanese people are now living better lives today in our world, free and given equal rights as everyone else. So, I'm begging you all not to act irrationally and make attempts to hurt our Canadian friends and families."

Sadly, this only angered the Parallel Japanese even more as they began called both Takashi and Mari traitors to their people.

Japanese Civilian #1: (hateful glare) "YOU FUCKING TRAITORS! YOU DARE TAKE SIDES AGAINST YOUR OWN KIND?!"

Japanese Civilian #2: (hateful glare) "You would side and be loyal to the people who committed genocide against us?!"

Noriko: (glares) "How could you agree what they did you us?! We lost our home, and our children were butchered like animals! And yet you would stand alongside our murderers?!"

Likewise, other Japanese began to agree with what Noriko just said, shouting they had no right to punish their people through genocide and annexation. Ulrich decided to put a stop to this nonsense once and for all.

Ulrich: (glares) "I know for a fact that what we did to the Japanese in our world was beyond too far and it was something we should never have committed. But can you honestly blame us? Considering all the pain, suffering, and misery you have caused towards the people of Asia, you can't blame the nations you conquered would want revenge. Why don't you watch what YOUR people did to our Asian allies, specifically to the civilians of our Chinese allies. Especially their children."

Soon a video popped onto the Holo-Screen and showed a historical video that showed something horrific. 

https://youtu.be/3PxGsLic6tg

Soon more videos and images began to appear, showing all the brutal and horrific atrocities done by Imperial Japan. Ulrich even showed videos and images of Unit 731 and all the terrible war crimes they committed on innocent civilians be before all of them were brutally executed by Douglas MacArthur. They even showed videos of the Nanking Massacre and how the Parallel Japanese watched their Imperial ancestors cheer for the war crimes their committed.

After watching the videos and seeing the images, almost all of the Japanese in the room looked away as they couldn't bear to see such a sight. The females in the room, including Noriko, shed tears down their faces, crying in horror at what their people did. Even the males who were vocal against the Canadians were distraught at what they were forced to watch.

Ulrich: (sigh) "I understand that you all view us as monsters. I... We can't blame you for it. After all, our people still regret the total war."

Wang: (nods) "My people regret it too. I'm actually a Chinese immigrant and my people were very angry back then. After what my people did, it's alright for you guys to be mad at us."

Victor: "Listen, you people can be angry at us all you want, it not going to change a single thing. Whether you like it or not, we had no choice."

Roberta: "Just like in your WW2, you should know just how stubborn the IJA was. It wasn't just the army, but also the civilians. They were all willing to fight to the bitter end no matter how many bodies they throw at us. Besides, without the creation of the atomic bomb and Emperor Hirohito dead, a land invasion into the mainland was inevitable. Thanks to Tojo and his loyalists, the Japanese would rather fight and die to the bitter end rather can surrender to an enemy they deemed 'inferior' to them. After all, their so-called Senjinkun military code is based on 'No-Surrender' idea. We still absolutely regret it, but we had no choice but to do it, so it didn't bite us in the ass years later. Back then, due to the atrocities your people committed and the sheer ferocity you showed during the war, many nations, Canada included, were scared and believed that your people were just too much of a threat to be left alone. So, we hand no choice but to annex your nation and people. At the time, this was the ONLY way we could ever feel safe."

Ulrich: (nods) "She right. You can blame or curse at us no matter what, it will not change a single thing from the past. The only thing we want is for your people to understand how sorry we truly are, and how we wished there was another way. However, keep in mind that the ONLY reason America rebuilt and allowed Japan to be independent was because of the Cold War happening in your world. Ironically enough, Communism is what saved your nation from being annexed and granted you to be your own independent nation. Your nation had basically got a slap on the wrist, despite all the atrocities your kind has committed."

Takashi: (nods) "He's right. Without Communism and the Cold War existing in our world, as cruel as it sounds, Japan was basically free game, along with the other fascist nations that lost WW2."

Mari: "And also, the reason we're defending our Canadian friends here is because we're tired. We're tired of the needless bloodshed and we're tired to losing friends and families to wars that could've easily been avoided. Believe me, many Japanese in our world back then wanted revenge the same way you all want right now. However, thanks to certain events, they began to understand that getting revenge won't change what happened to our people. It's just gonna lead to another pointless war, one that will definitely lead to the extinction of our people."

The Japanese had mixed emotions. Obviously, some wouldn't forgive them for what the Canadians and the Chinese had done, but others had different thoughts going through their minds after seeing the videos and images on what their Imperial counterparts have done, along with the words said by Mari and Takashi.

A Japanese woman in her mid-thirties spoke up.

Japanese Civilian #1: (sigh) "We still won't forgive for what you did to our counterpart people, but I suppose it doesn't matter anymore."

Japanese Civilian #1: (bitter laugh) "The past is now the past. I guess our people now become and living like Jews, isn't it?"

Adams: (grim nod) "In our world yes."

Mari: (grim nod) "It's true I'm afraid."

David: "Listen there is a bright side to this. I won't lie when I say that things were hard for the Japanese after WW2, but things did get better. Like Mari said, your counterpart people are now living in peace, harmony, and prosperity as communities around our world. They were given civil rights and freedom after decades of the Second Great War. We'll tell you all soon how that happens."

Noriko: (bitter chuckle) "Well, our counterparts are now tasting what it feels like to be Jews, right?"

Sebastian: (sigh) "Yes, but it's much better than before."

Gilbert: "In our modern day, your people are now over 2 million. There's a Japanese restaurant called Benihana. It's my favorite restaurant and it was created by a Japanese man named Ryu Aoki."

Now that surprised the Japanese.

Noriko: (surprised) "Ryu Aoki? Is he related to a person named Rocky Aoki?"

Marcus: (nods) "He had children who then moved to Canada. Many people in Canada enjoyed Japanese food, Chinese-Canadians included."

The Parallel Japanese were astonished as watch videos of a familiar Japanese restaurant serving food. They even saw Chinese people enjoying a good time in that place.

Wang: "If it'll make you feel any better, not all of Hirohito's family members were killed. Tell me, do you recognize this man?"

And image is displayed to show a very familiar 65-year-old Japanese man. 

The Parallel Japanese were shocked at who they were seeing.

Japanese Civilian #1: (shock) "Wait that's Naruhito!"

Japanese Civilian #2: (shock) "He's alive?!"

Wang: (nods) "Yes. Naruhito is the Grandson of Emperor Hirohito. Son of Akihito and Michiko of the Royal Family. Although Emperor Hirohito and most of the Royal Family were murdered in WW2 during the coup, Prince Akihito and his wife Michiko, along with two others of the Royal family survived. However, knowing they would be hunted down, they were forced to go into hiding before being found by Chinese and Canadian forces. They were soon arrested and put in prison but a decade or two later, they would eventually be released but were forced to live in poverty for years to come in former Japan. However, the family eventually moved to Canada where Naruhito joined the Canadian military and reached the rank of Major General. He's living a good life as he had children and grandchildren in our world."

The Japanese were relieved to know that not all of the Japanese Royal Family were killed during Tojo's coup but were surprised to know that China and Canada spared them. Still, they were happy to see their former Emperor grandson still alive and well, along with having a family of his own.

Ultron: "I believe it's time we finish our story on how our version of WW2 finally ended."

Everyone agreed as they all went back to their history lesson.

The Canadians explained that with Japan's defeat, the Canadian military can finally bring its full might on Britannia and the Axis Entente Powers. They explained how improvements in the Navy and help from German U-Boats have allowed the Canadian navy to smash through the Britannian navy and land troops into Europe. Italy was the first to fall due to the combined attacks from the Austro-Hungarians, Ottomans, and Canadians. Spain was next to fall by combined attacks from Canada, Brazil, and Mexico. The exiled members of the Portugal government took power in order to keep law and order in Spain. Apparently, Spain had invaded Portugal and initiated total war by killing over 85% of the Portuguese population with only 15% fleeing the country to Canada.

Soon they explained about the situation in France and how Canadian soldiers went head-to-head against Britannian and French Soldiers. The Parallel Japanese especially bore witness to the brutal and violent battle between Canadian and Britannian soldiers. They can see the bitter hatred the two sides have against each other. They were disturbed as they saw WW2 Britannian and Canadian soldiers tear each other apart in the worst way possible. Not to mention they see the Britannian's were also able to develop their own assault rifles which were the EM2's.

The Parallel Japanese watched how the two armies fought against each other as the Canadians shouted 'Down With the Monarchy! Up with the Maple Leaf!' while the Britannian's as usual shouted 'Long Live Britiannia!' multiple times.

Soon they were told about the evacuation of Dunkirk and how the Britannian's willingly abandoned their French allies to the United Central Alliance. France still held strong as allied forces began pushing into the nation. They explained how the French were stubborn as Charles XI ordered all French citizens, whether they were soldiers or civilians to fight to the last man, woman, and child.

However, it was when history started to become similar to theirs's as Albert Einstein initiated a joint German-Canadian science team to create the Atomic Bomb. When the first bomb was completed, Paris was nuked by French-Canadians who were from Quebec. They were disturbed and shocked to see Paris get nuked and the entire city was decimated.

Noriko: (horrified) "Was... Was Paris ever rebuilt?"

Ulrich: (regretful nod) "Yes, but historical monuments like the Eiffel Tower were destroyed and never rebuilt."

Soon the Canadians talked about the final battles of WW2 which involved the invasion of Britain through Ireland. The fighting was fierce as they watched Canadian, Mexican, German, and Russian soldiers engaging the last remnants of the Britannian military. However, one of the worst things the Japanese were forced to witness were the Death Camps discovered in Ireland. Noriko and most of her fellow Japanese cried in horror at the sight of Britannia's Holocaust. They see the images of malnourished and nearly dead Irish people. They even see young children who were at least 5 or younger looking all skin and bones. It was even more horrifying when the Canadians discovered and found the location of their missing people. Out of the 1 thousand Canadian citizens that were kidnapped, only 250 survived. Most of them were females as they were forcefully used to be sex slaves for the Britannian soldiers. This caused the Japanese females to recoil in both horror and disgust at what these alternate British did to these people.

Soon they explained how WW2 finally ended when Canada dropped three atomic bombs on London, Manchester, and Oxford which resulted in over 6.7 million British civilians and soldiers dead. They also told that King George IV and the entire British royal family was incinerated by the nuclear blast, finally causing Britannia to surrender and ending WW2 once and for all.

Ultron: "And that is how WW2 finally ended."

The Parallel Japanese were deathly silent at what they all just witnessed. In their honest opinion, the two world wars from Canada seemed far more destructive and devastating than their world wars back on their Earth.

Japanese Historian: (shock) "I... What were the casualties in this war?"

Ultron: "It was estimated that over 240 million died in WW2."

All of the Parallel Japanese recoiled in shock and horror at the massive death count. Compared to their WW2 which was just 80 million, this version of WW2 was three times the amount of death. Eventually they explained that in the immediate aftermath of WW2, the truth about Britain finally came out the world and how they were responsible for causing the 'Great War' in the first place. This truth outraged everyone, including the surviving French people as they all blamed the British for turning them into a fascist nation which is actually very true.

The Canadians explained how the United Kingdom was permanently balkanized and how Ireland and Scottland remained fully independent nations. All that was left was England that remained a poor third world country and how it suffered through permanent economic sanctions. Moreover, they talked about how France was dissolved and how it was permanently split in half. Half of their territory, including a destroyed Paris was annexed by the German Empire while the other half was annexed by the newly created United Democratic Spain. Also, the Canadians talked about how the entire country of Italy was annexed by Austria-Hungary and how the Canadian Military helped bring down any rebellion that remained. Though they explained how the people of Austria-Hungary were furious at the massive damages the Italians caused on their country. Furthermore, they even explained the fates of Argentina and South Africa, their lands annexed by the surrounding nations as both compensation and revenge. Also, the parallel Japanese learned that the entire surviving white population of South Africa were deported out of the country and sent to be imprisoned in England alongside the now defeated English people.

Noriko: (shocked) "So... Britian, France, Italy, Argentina, South Africa... a-and even Japan... they no longer exist in your world anymore?"

Roberta: (shakes head) "Nope. After WW2, the fascist nations were either dissolved, split apart, or annexed. You can say the ending of our version of WW2 was far worse and more tragic compared to your timeline."

The Parallel Japanese didn't know what to say about that. If this information was made public back on their Earth, they can only imagine how the people of Europe will react to this. From there, the Canadians explained how Canada offered economic aid to the nations of Europe and how they helped repair the damages. However, the Canadians talked about how they managed to purchase Greenland from Denmark. They explain how Denmark was invaded by both Britannia and France, and how they massacred their people and destroyed much of their infrastructure. They explained how the two nations killed over 80% of their population before the rest fled to Germany for aid. After WW2, Denmark was at a near economic collapse and Canada offered 3 billion dollars to help. Faced with little choice, the Parallel Japanese were told that Denmark took the deal and gave Greenland to Canada.

After that, they explained how all the Jews in Europe wanted to leave due to the discrimination they were facing. They first planned to move to the Middle East, but Canada caught wind of their actions and approached then with an offer. They explained how the Canadian government were worried about the religious backlash they would receive. After negotiating with them, all of the Jewish population moved to Greenland and renamed it Israel. This surprised the Japanese.

Japanese Historian: (surprised) "Wait so Israel isn't a country in your world?"

Marcus (nods) "Yes. Unlike in your world, Israel is not an independent nation, but a Canadian state. This was good in a way as there would be no war against Syria or Egypt. They also don't have to worry about discrimination or racism from the Arabs in the Middle East, including Islams."

The Parallel Japanese were surprised to hear all of this but nodded in understanding. Soon their history lesson was just about to finish. 

========== (Scene Change) ==========

Continuing on with the main battle of the city of Palos, the situation was a bad as one might expect for the Saderan soldiers and people. The Imperial Soldiers were completely outmatched by the combined Canadian and Warrior Bunny attacks in both skills, technology, and numbers. No matter what the defenders did, they couldn't do a single thing against their invaders. Any attempt at a counterattack or turning the tide of battle ended in complete failure as they were decimated. Due to their advanced weaponry, a single Canadian soldier can kill several Imperial Soldiers with ease.

Soon both the Canadian Military forces, and the Warrior Bunnies began to converge on the last remaining holdouts within the city. Col. Reggie Stone looked through a pair of binoculars as he sees the final objective. Most of the city was theirs yet the last remaining holdout belonged to those of the upper-class district. No doubt it belonged to those rich and greedy folks who used their wealth and status to get whatever they want, including slaves. He can even make out the mansion that belonged to the city Lord of this place. Realizing the only way to finally end this battle was to take the mansion. 

Soon Col. Stone began to call on all available forces that were currently not engaged and to launch a full-on assault on the mansion. Relaying his orders, at least three platoons that were a mix of Canadians and Warrior Bunnies converged on the mansion as Reggie Stone himself led the charge. When they got there, they eliminated anyone who tried to attack them while also freeing salves and bringing them to a safer, more secure location, especially Warrior Bunny slaves they came across. The only reason the district belonging to the noble remained untouched was mainly due to the large number of slaves in that area. They had also detected multiple Warrior Bunny slaves in that area, so bombing the place was a no go. Also, they were apparently being used by the remaining defenders, mercenaries, and slave merchants as living shields. Although thankfully that didn't have to happen thanks to Canadian Sentinels moving in and acting fast to rescue them.

Eventually they finally made it to the Lord's castle, which was kind of obvious since it was not only the biggest structure, but somehow it also looked like it was made of pure, solid gold. How such a building was created is actually a mystery for them. Anyway, the building seemed to be in the center of the city and is placed on top of a hill, giving it what seems like a clear view of the city. Soon multiple V32 Razorback VTOLs are seen hovering around the structure as many UCAF Marines rope down onto the top of the building. Any defenders there were killed instantly. TSFs and Helicopters are seen patrolling the area, preventing anyone from making an escape.

Near the entrance, multiple guards are seen lying on the ground dead. Col. Stone and the rest of the platoons stack up on the door. After viewing what's on the other side of the door, they see multiple guards/soldiers in defensive positions, ready to attack. Reggie orders one of the Marines to place a C4 on the door while the rest get back. Following the Colonel's orders, a Canadian Marine place and sets a C4 charge on the door and quickly gets back. After waiting 5 seconds, the door blows up, killing several of the guards behind the door and wounding many more.

Any guards or soldiers that survived were now on the ground as they all groaned or screamed in pain due to the explosion. However, their lives were cut short as Warrior Bunnies rushed in and killed the survivors with their blades. With the path now clear, Col. Stone order everyone to more in.

Reggie: (glare) "Alright everyone! This is it! Secure the building, find the slaves, and locate the City Lord! ASAP! Understand?!"

Canadian and Warrior Bunnies: "YES SIR!"

Soon everyone began to split into groups and moved to their objectives. Reggie was with 10 individuals following him. Five were Canadian Marines while five were Warrior Bunnies. The sounds of doors being opened, gunfire, screaming, and blades clashing can be heard behind them. None of that mattered as they all made their way towards the Lord's chamber. A few remaining guards tried to stop them, but they were quickly gunned down before they could do anything. Eventually they made it to the last chamber which belonged to the one in charge of the city. Reggie orders only two Marines and two Warrior Bunnies to follow him while the rest wait outside and guard the entrance.

Everyone complied as Reggie smashed the door opened. One inside, the room looked to be large and luxurious as one would expect. The Colonel saw fancy and expensive furniture covering the entire place that looked like it costs a fortune to buy, along with paintings or important people hanging on the walls and so on. At the opposite of the room was the Lord Governor himself. The man looked to be in his sixties, and he clearly lived off the privileges of his position. The man was clearly obese, nearly as fat as a walrus and was wearing fancy clothes that seemed fitting for an arrogant nobleman. He is also seen to be wearing gold rings, bracelets, and a necklace covered in jewels around his neck. He is shown to have a double-chin and is bald but for three grey hairs he has combed over his scalp. They can also see the terrified, yet angry look on his face.

However, what really caught their attention was the woman the man was holding like a shield. She is shown to be completely naked, covered in bruises, and has white semen leaking from her womanhood and down her legs. Her left leg also appeared to be broken, and her bunny ears looked like they've been cut in half as they see some blood dripping from her head. In the other man's hand was a dagger, pointed as the woman's throat. The Canadians and Warrior Bunnies can see that the woman looked tired and scared with tears running down her face. Wasting no time, Reggie raised his assault rifle, which was an ICR-1 Assault Rifle, pointed it directly at his head.

Reggie: (glares) "FREEZE! LET GO OF THE LADY AND PUT YOUR HANDS IN THE AIR! NOW!"

The two Canadian Marines and two Warrior Bunnies also raised their weapons, clearly disgusted at what the man did to the woman in his arms. The Lord Governor glared at the five intruders while also being scared.

Lord Governor: (scared glare) "Get... Get back! Get back you barbaric savages! One wrong move and I'll slit her throat open!"

Warrior Bunny#1: (hateful glare) "You bastard! Get your filthy, disgusting hands off her now! "

Lord Governor: (hateful glare) "NEVER! Do you have ANY idea what you and your kind have done?! Surrender now or I swear I'll-!"

Whatever the man was going to say cut off as Reggie shot him on the shoulder, causing the Lord Governor to scream in agony and drop the dagger. The Warrior Bunny was dropped to the floor as everyone moved in. The two Marines subdued and captured the Lord Governor while the two Warrior Bunnies tended to their missing comrade. Lord Governor was hoisted up as the man was screaming and raging for the Canadians to let him go. That didn't happen as he was knocked unconscious as Reggie bashed him on the head with his weapon. Soon the Lord Governor was taken to a secure place for interrogation.

With victory now at hand, Reggie ordered all forces for mop up operations. With the mansion now secured, Col. Stone ordered the banner of the Empire to be taken down and the flag of Canada be raised for everyone to see. Soon the flags and banners of the USC were raised in the city to signify that the city was now theirs. The Canadians, Warrior Bunnies, and even the liberated slaves cheered in victory over capturing the city.

Reggie looked outside to see multiple transports coming into escort slaves, Warrior Bunnies included, to be taken to secure areas in order to give humanitarian aid. Medical tents were set up to examine the freed slaves for any diseases or injures before being relocated back to the Canadian base at Arnus Hill. However, Reggie also had a grim look on his face as he can see dead slaves being brought to the transports for a proper burial. Unsurprisingly, Reggie had an idea that their slave masters were exceedingly cruel and must have killed them in order to make sure their slaves don't try to run away for freedom. The Colonel was cut off from his thoughts as one of the Warrior Bunnies approached him and gave him a respectful bow.

Warrior Bunny #2: (bows) "Thank you so much Colonel. If not for your people, I fear what would happen to my people who were enslaved in this city."

Reggie: (nods) "I appreciate it. But it's best you thank me later after we get everyone, including the Warrior Bunnies who were slaves, to safety where they can get the proper medical treatment."

Warrior Bunny #2: (nods) "I understand. Thank you."

Soon the City of Palos fell into the hand of the Canadians and Warrior Bunnies. Such action would mark the beginning of the fall of the Saderan Empire. 

========== (Scene Change) ==========

After things finally calmed down, the Japanese listened in on the last parts of their meeting. They explained that without Communism, there was no Cold War. Instead, this era of the mid to late 1900s was known as the Space Age. Events like the Korean War and Vietnam War still did occur, but they all ended quickly due to China's intervention. China at the time was extremely Ant-Communist and sought to root out communism near their border, meaning there was no intervention of foreign troops by Canadians forces. When asked about the communist leader during the Korean War, the Canadians explained that Kim Il-Sung's reign over a communist Korea ended before it could even begin. It wasn't even a month, but Chinese forces decimated North Korean forces and captured Kim Il-Sung who was later executed. After that, the Canadians explained how North and South Korea united to form the Greater Korean Republic.

Noriko: (confused) "Wait what about his family? What about Kin Il-Sung's son and grandchildren."

Ulrich: "In our timeline, Kim Il-Sung was executed, but the Kim family was still allowed to live. His son, Kim Jong-ll, grew up to be a famous film maker while his son Kim Jong-un grew up to be a famous military General in the Korean Military. Kim Yo-jong, his sister, is a famous baker who built a company that mainly makes cakes, but also our surgery snacks like cookies, pastries, etc."

Now that was a surprise and shock to the Parallel Japanese. They are all very well aware of the Kim family in North Korea and how they were known for their ruthless brutality towards their own people. Come of think of it, the Parallel Japanese can see a pattern about how some of the world most heinous dictators were radically different on the alternate Earth. Sure, some dictators were still the same, but people like Hitler, Stalin, and Kim Jong-un seemed like the exact opposite and more benevolent compared to their counterparts in their world.

Ultron: "If you're curious, this is what Kim Jong-un looks like in our world."

A photo appears on the holo-screen to show Kim Jong-un in their world.

(A/N: This is what Kim Jong-un looks like in the alternate Earth.) 

The Parallel Japanese were shocked to see a completely different version of Kim Jong-un. Unlike their version, this this version of the North Korean dictator was thin and a bit muscular, compared to their version who was obese and round. Plus, he looked more friendly compared their worlds version of Kim Jong-un.

Although some of the female adult Japanese women couldn't help but blush at how handsome this version of Kim Jong-un is.

Noriko: (curious) "What is he like?"

Roberta: "Kim Jong-un is known for being a serious, yet benevolent person. As a General, he takes his job seriously and expects those under his command to follow their orders and protect the people of Korea. However, in normal everyday life, he's a family man who is married to a woman named Kyo Lee-jin and they have a son named Kim Jin-un. Even his sister is married as she has a husband named Ri Soo-Park and a daughter named Nie Ju-un."

Japanese Civilian #4: (disbelief) "He's married and has a son?"

Japanese Civilian #2: (disbelief) "His sister is a baker and is married while also having a daughter?"

Marcus: (nods) "Yes. Last I heard, his wife is pregnant again and are expecting a girl. Also, the reason he joined the military was because he was inspired by his uncle who was also a general in the Korean military known as Jang Song-thaek. As a matter of fact, he loved his uncle very much as he was the reason he joined the Korean military. Although his loved his family dearly, Jang Song-thaek was seen as a role model that Kim looked up to for guidance in his future career. "

The Parallel Japanese had a feeling that if this version of Kim Jong-un learned that his counterpart executed his own uncle who just so happens to have the same looks and share the same name, he'll no doubt be outraged. They are also shocked to knew that Kim's sister is also married. Photos were shown to see the Kim family showing benevolent smiles on their faces. It was extremely weird to see the Kim family looking like a happy family instead of being corrupt dictators.

Continuing on, the Canadians talked about an alternative ending to the Vietnam War. Though the conflict was still the same between the North and South Vietnamese armies, the war ended rather quickly thanks to China's intervention. However, the Japanese soon learned that thanks to intelligence from the Canadians, they learned that due to corruption from Ngo Dinh Diem and the South Vietnamese Government, they learn they made a deal with Ho Chi Minh. In exchange for overthrowing the Ngo Dinh Diem and his South Vietnamese Government, they promised to make him the leader of Vietnam in exchange he gets rid of communism. The parallel Japanese learned Ho Chi Minh agreed to the deal. Of course, there were the extremist elements within the North Vietcong, but they were quickly dealt with. In the end, after Ngo Dinh Diem and his loyalists were both arrested and executed, Ho Chi Minh was made the new leader of Vietnam, and the nation didn't become communist but rather became a prosperous nation while also managing to maintain friendly relations with Canada and its allied nations. This was honestly a great shock for the parallel Japanese, and they can only imagine how the Vietnamese people from their world will react if they ever see the alternate history of their people.

After that, they spoke about how their version of the space age was far more advanced compared to their world. They talked about how the world's most powerful nations worked together instead of against each other. They talked about how the Moon Land was more advanced as it involved six representatives: 3 Canadians, 1 Russian, 1 Chinese, and 1 German. What was surprising was that the Chinese and German Astronaut/Cosmonaut were actually women who were the first to land on the moon. Moreover, they learned of Ed Dwight Jr. who was regarded as the first African-Canadian to be allowed to land on the moon. The Parallel Japanese watched in both awe and shock to see them establishing permanent settlements on the moon in order to mine resources such as the Jamestown settlement and Zvezda.

Another shocking difference in their world was that JFK survived his assassination attempt and that Richard Nixon lost the 1968 election and instead became a famous Talk Show host in which his TV show was called 'Tricky Dick'.

But the real shocker was during the Civil Rights movement and how it was somewhat more peaceful compared to America's version. They learned that without the KKK, Silver Legion, or the Jim Crows laws ever existing, Canada, especially those of the Southern states, were far less racist towards Africans and other minorities. However, they were horrified when they saw the Selma Massacre and the casualties that took place. Although the issue was thankfully resolved, the biggest shock was that MLK, the leader of the Civil Rights movement, survived his assassination attempt in 1968. From there, they learned that MLK was the main nominee for President and due to Canada being far less racist in the 1900s, MLK won and made history by becoming the first black President of the USC. Marcus also added that he was the grandson of Martin Luther King Jr. while his father is actually Martin Luther King III.

This was very shocking to the Parallel Japanese. Some of them knew MLK and the impact he made in America. If the Americans, especially African-Americans, knew that MLK not only survived but also became President, they can only imagine what their reaction would be. Even more so since he was voted into office twice. They were even more surprised to see a grandson of MLK right here in the room with them.

However, one of the biggest shocks was when it came to anime.

Ulrich: "Uh, you people know about anime and which nation created it, right?"

Noriko: (nods) "Yes, Japan created anime and made a lot of money from making it."

Marcus: "Well this is gonna sound crazy, but in our world, Anime does exist, but it was China who fist made it."

The Parallel Japanese were taken aback by this as they all looked at Marcus in shock and disbelief.

Japanese Citizen: #1: (shock and disbelief) "What? China was the one to invent anime?"

Marcus: (nods) "Yup. With Japan annexed, China took the lead by inventing anime in the year 1970. It was invented by a Chinese man named Bolin Chao."

Ulrich: "So basically anime series like Gundam, Muv-Luv, Macross Frontier are NOT Japanese anime, but instead are Chinese anime in our world."

The Parallel Japanese didn't know how to feel about this. Anime was considered the pride of Japan, yet China was the first one to make it. Those who were otakus or anime fans were quite annoyed and somewhat angry that China invented anime instead of them. Then again, Japan was annexed on the other Earth, so they suppose it was to be expected.

Soon they explained how MLK's presidency helped eliminate racism forever and help heal a divided nation where both Whites, Blacks, and other minorities in Canada now see each other as one people united by a single idea. Under MLK's leadership, the Parallel Japanese can see that he helped bring about a golden age in Canada. One of peace, prosperity, and equality within the nation. The Canadians basically told the Japanese that MLK help turn Canada into a true 'Land of the Free and a Nations of Equals'.

After that they spoke about other incidents during MLK's presidency such as the Indian Incident and how he helped prevent India from being split. This surprised the Japanese as this meant that nations like Pakistan and Bangladesh don't exist in their world. From there they began to explain the formation of various supernations like the Federation of Nordic States and the United Arab League. They even spoke about the creation of the United Mexican States and the Federation of South America which soon led to the MAC Alliance.

This was shocking to the Parallel Japanese as they can only imagine how the nations of their world will react to this, especially to those in the Middle East. The Canadians explained to them that thanks to the help from the Ottoman Empire, terrorist groups like ISIS, Taliban, and other violent terrorist organization do not exist in their world or at the very least never became as dangerous in the parallel timeline due to being eliminated far earlier. Thus, the nations of the Middle East united due to economic and military reasons, which also included equal rights to women and how the current leader of the UAL was actually a woman.

As more of their world was explained, the Japanese were amazed on how Canada developed the P-5000 Powered Work Loader and how it was the basis for future mech designs. Eventually they got to the point where they spoke about Ultron's origins.

Ultron: "Our next topic to today is one I will personally speak about, and it's based on my 'birth' if you will."

Japanese Historian: (curious) "You mean like how you were created?"

Ultron: (nods) "Yes."

Ultron then spoke about how he was 'accidently' created in the year 1997 by a German-Canadian scientist named Andrew Einstein. The Parallel Japanese were shown a video of their first interaction, and they were terrified at hearing Ultron's mechanical, demonic voice. Thankfully he didn't go all Skynet and decided to work alongside his creator. Soon Ultron was revealed to the Canadian government and their reactions were to be expected. However, Japanese learned that they agreed to work with Ultron and also keep him a secret until the time was right.

They then move on to the 21st century and began to talk about the technological advancements they made thanks to Ultron and how he helped root out corruption in the world. They also explained how Gerrymandering was banned in 1998. They then went on to explain that in 2005 that filibustering was banned and considered illegal. They also learned that Oprah Winfrey nominated as Trump Secretary of State.

One of the most shocking moments in Canada's history was how Ultron helped prevent the 9/11 attacks. The Al explained that he foresaw the plans Osama Bin Ladan, and Al-Qaeda were about to initiate and sent the crucial information to the UAL and Ottoman Empire. With the information given to them, the Ottoman Empire and the UAL were able to stop Bin Laden from causing an international incident. Soon the Japanese learn that Osama Bin Ladan and members of Al-Qaeda were all captured and executed in the end. This was shocking as they can only imagine how the people of America will feel if they learned that the 9/11 attacks never happened in the USCs world.

However, the Japanese soon learn about the man who will help better the lives of the Japanese people. The Canadian talked about a Japanese man by the name of Shinzo Abe and how he would make history by being the first Japanese man to be elected as President of the United Republic of China. They explained how Shinzo convinced all Japanese to admit their war crimes to the world and how they were the villains of WW2. They also explained how Shinzo promised to do all he can and convinced all Japanese citizens to fix their mistakes in order to win the trust of the people. 

Not only that, but they learned that former Prince Akihito revealing himself to the people and tell the Japanese people the truth about Tojo's Coup and what really happened to the death of Emperor Hirohito and the Royal family. After that, the Parallel Japanese seeing Akihito urge their alternate counterpart people and all other sides to stand down and put aside their past differences, rivalries, grudges, and hatred against each other for the sake of the greater good, explaining that all of them were just pawns by people who sacrificed them carelessly for their own sinister agenda. In response, Akihito expresses and urges everyone from all walks of life to simply admit their wrongs and apologize for their sins so they may all move on, stating that they must be better than those who came before them for the sake of their children and grandchildren.

Needless to say, due to the truth finally being revealed, the alternate Japanese citizens in their world were convinced that they were all in the wrong and how they began to sincerely apologize for their war crimes, denouncing their ancestors and admitting to wanting nothing to do with their Imperial past. As a result, the Canadians explained how the Chinese, Canadians, and Russians also begun to forgive them and how they also apologized for committing near genocide on their people and annexing their former nation.

Marcus: "The process is still going on, but in the end, Canadians, Russians, Chinese and Japanese begun to meld their relations and work together as one people. Japan may be gone, but the Japanese in China and Russia swore to do all they can to protect their new homes. Many either joined the military or took jobs in politics to help serve the country."

Takashi: "Regardless of what you all think or believe, the fighting is OVER. We can't change the past, but for the sake of our children, our grandchildren, and for the generation that will come after, we MUST be better and not pass that hatred down to them. We may have lost our home, but we have a new place to call home after being given a 2nd chance, one we alternate Japanese have no intention of wasting."

The Japanese were amazed to hear this and were happy to see their people were no longer discriminated and were now living happy lives. Also, Takashi really did begin to inspire the parallel Japanese people.

Noriko: (amazed) "So our people are no longer discriminated or living in poor conditions?"

Mari: (smiles) "Yes. The Japanese today in our world are now living as equal citizens in Russia, China, and Canada. Many Japanese moved to Canada for a better life and were welcomed with open arms, even by Chinese-Canadians."

The Parallel Japanese were relieved to hear this. They watched videos of Japanese culture being revitalized in their former homeland and in other countries like in Canada, China, and Russia. They even see Canadian military use the Japanese Katana in case of going in close quarters. All in all, they were glad that not only did their people survive, but their culture was allowed to be accepted. Soon the Canadians went on to explain about another African-Canadian by the name of Barack Obama being elected in 2008 as President for the USC. They explained how he helped change the world for the better by establishing the United Coalition of Nations which was their world's version of the United Nations.

The image of the flag was shown.

The Parallel Japanese can clearly see the flag was similar to their UN flag, but with a different design. Soon they were amazed because after two years after the creation of the UCN, the nations from around the world began to make the world a better place by doing worldwide humanitarian aid. However, wat surprised them was how Obama revoked the 2nd Amendment due to an increase in gun violence and how their gun control safety was similar to their Japan, but much harsher.

Noriko: (confused) "Wait you allowed the 2nd Amendment to be revoked and removed from the constitution?"

Marcus: (nods) "Yeah. Due to increase in gun violence happening in Canada, it was decided that guns were to be banned and that the only way to own a firearm was to do three things and that was to do a written test, give a good reason as to why you need a gun and that you must pay a fine of over $3000 every month. Because of this, gun stores and shooting ranges were shut down and the only people to have access to guns are either the police or military. On the bright side, gun violence began to go down significantly to the point of no more crimes involving guns can ever happen again. Even things like school shooting are now a thing of the past thank to this new law at banning guns."

The Parallel Japanese were surprised to hear this and it made them wonder how America will react to know that the 2nd Amendment in their constitution was permanently removed.

Soon they explained all the good the UCN did such as helping poor 3rd world countries which resulted in famine and poverty becoming nonexistent. Ultron helped in healing the environment and how their infrastructures were upgraded to modern standards. What was shocking was how the UCN began the process of space travel. The Japanese watched in both awe and shock to see real life spaceships colonizing the moon as they can see real cities being built on the surface. They also see orbital elevators and space station being created for recourses.

They even pulled up one image of a futuristic city built on the moon, along with many others.

(A/N: This is what's built on the moon.) 

The Parallel Japanese were amazed and shocked to see real cities being built on the moon.

Japanese Civilian: #3: (shocked) "I don't believe this. You Canadians have cities on the moon?"

Ulrich: (nods) "Yup. Under UCN initiative, nations from all over the world began coordinated efforts at colonizing the Sol System. We've just recently finished colonizing the moon and are now in the process of terraforming and colonizing Mars."

Ultron: "We already have settlements set up on Mars thanks to the use of new terraforming technologies we've developed. Mars is still in fully terraformed, but we've been able to make some areas habitable for human life. "

An image of Mars is shown to have fleets of warships in space. Zooming in, the Parallel Japanese were surprised to see some parts of Mars have an Earthlike environment as they see green land and blue bodies of water on the surface. They can also see settlements on the ground. They couldn't believe all the advancements the people of this alternate Earth made compared to their own Earth.

Japanese Civilian: #1: (shocked) "I can't believe this."

Japanese Civilian: #2: (shocked) "This is like Star Trek in real life."

Japanese Civilian: #3: (shocked) "I can't believe they managed to get so far in so little time."

Japanese Civilian: #4: (shocked) "They have terraforming technologies?! I can imagine how our world will react to this!"

Continuing on with the lesson, the Canadians explained how the UCN helped usher in a new age of peace and prosperity. However, the greatest shock was how Obama urged the nations of the UCN to aid the people of England in giving humanitarian aid. This surprised the Japanese since they knew the Canadians held a deep and hateful grudge against the English. However, the Canadians explained how they wanted to move on from their past by forgiving their former enemies and make peace with them. To their surprise, it worked as even nations like Ireland and Scottland began helping the English people. This resulted in the creation of the Union of England.

Noriko: (surprised) "So you Canadians decided forgive the English, despite all the wrongs they committed against you?"

Marcus: (nods) "We had to. Despite everything they did to us, we couldn't just go on and hate these people forever. We knew that by doing so we'd be no better than the fascist nations of WW2. Obviously, it wasn't easy at first, and it still isn't to this day. But we want to believe that the children of our allies and enemies can one day walk together as friends. To us, the time for hatred is over, and the time for forgiveness and peace is now."

The Japanese were amazed to hear this. Many began to see that their world is far more peaceful and united compared to their Earth. Even their UCN have proven to be far more effective and efficient compared to their United Nations. I mean they were able to have a far more advanced version of space travel compared to their world.

Soon the Canadian's talked about 2012 which involved a new era of Mechanized Warfare. The anime mecha fans and otakus in the room were amazed and overjoyed at the appearance of the Tactical Surface Fighter that was based on the Chinese Anime series called Muv-Luv. The Canadians talked about how Ultron helped in its development which resulted in the reaction of the F-4 Phantom. Soon they began to show more advanced versions of the TSF and how it became standard in their military. They also began to explain about all the various and advanced technology was developed for both the military and civilian life thanks to Ultron, including the creation of energy and plasma weaponry.

This somewhat scared the Parallel Japanese. After seeing what the Canadians were truly capable of, they had a feeling that if war was to ever break out between their two Earths, it would be a total massacre... for them anyway since Canada's technology and their allies are practically eons ahead compared to what their Earth's military was able to develop.

Another surprising thing was the discovery of the real-life Vibranium and the development of advance medical technologies like the Med-Bays and cures for diseases like cancer. The even learned about alternate forms of energy that are more eco-friendly and more powerful compared to fossil fuels or oil. They even talked about the energy converters and fabricators that helped solver all of their energy and resource needs. The Japanese were amazed to see all of this, but they also grew worried as they had a feeling that countries like America, China, and Russia on their Earth will want access to these kinds of technologies.

Soon the Canadians talked about their next topic and this was once that would make the Parallel Japanese question about the origins of humanity.

Ultron: "Moving on and we believe this next topic is one you all must pay extra attention to."

He begins pulling up more holographic screens to show modern day China on the alternate Earth.

Ultron: "In the year 2016, a major discovery was made in China when scientists and geneticists discovered something within the human DNA, one that would change the course of human history forever."

Now this got the Parallel Japanese very curious as Marcus asked a strange yet serious question.

Marcus: "Tell us something. How familiar are you with the concepts of chromosomes and how many are there within out human DNA structure?"

This seemed to confuse the Parallel Japanese people, but Noriko answered for all of them regardless.

Noriko: "Well I mean... humans have 23 chromosomes, right? They're a threadlike structure of nucleic acids and protein found in the nucleus of our cells."

Japanese Historian: "Not to mention it was confirmed by Joe Hin Tjio and Albert Levan that there were actually 23 pairs of chromosomes, not 24 as described by Theophilus Painter."

Roberta: "Well what if we told you that wasn't the truth, at least in the case of us alternate humans anyway. What if we told you we had something a little extra in our DNA that you parallel humans seemed to lack."

Marcus: "As you know, this is the chromosome chart you're all familiar with while this... is the chromosome chart used by us alternate humans in modern day."

Ultron pull up a holographic screen showing the chromosome count for the average human and then he pulled out the current average chromosome count for the alternate humans.

The Colonel jabs and points his thumb that points to the chart with 24 chromosomes.

Marcus: "Notice the difference?"

The Parallel Japanese took a close look at the two charts before finally noticing the huge difference between the two.

Noriko: (surprised) "Wait... those are 24 pairs of chromosomes."

Marcus: (nods) "That is correct. In the year 2016, Chinese scientists and geneticists discovered what appeared to be traces of what was suspected to be a 24th pair of chromosomes within the human DNA. As you can expect, this caused a massive international conflict as many biologists and historians begun questioning about the origins of humanity due to the discovery of this missing chromosome. This had also gotten people to think that men like Theophilus Painter was actually right about the number of chromosomes being 24 instead of 23."

Roberta: "After months of research and development, scientists have managed to create a serum to restart the 24th chromosome. Dubbed as the C24 Serum, they implanted it into a small group of volunteers and the results were beyond expectations."

Japanese Historian: (curious) "What were the results regaining this 24th chromosome?"

Ultron: "Those that have regained the 24th chromosome have made them superhuman. It changed the human race both physically and mentally. Regaining the extra pair within their DNA makes humans super strong, super fit, super intelligent, and so much more. Furthermore, human cells are able to divide 50x faster, meaning that they heal almost instantly."

Ulrich: "With this, humanity was able to essentially conquer disease. We no longer had to worry about genetic disorders, viruses, sickness and even cancer itself. In other words, our human race has evolved to become natural born superhumans. It's even been theorized that humanity now has a much longer lifespan of over 500 years. It also increased our heights significantly as the average adult male or female is now between 6'4ft to 6'8ft, thus making us very tall compared to you parallel humans."

Videos are shown of the superhuman feats made by those how have regained the 24th chromosome. Dubbed as 'Enhanced', a name given to humans who regained the extra pair of chromosomes, it's a term given to the emergence of a new human species. Just seeing all of this was a shock to the Parallel Japanese. For those who are experts or students in biological or genetic engineering, if this is all indeed true, it also made them question the origins of their humanity. Furthermore, they also became curious to know if their version of humanity actually has a 24th chromosome. If this is indeed true, it could very well change the course of human history forever, both politically and religiously.

Noriko: "If this is all true then does this mean that... we also have the 24th Chromosome?"

To their utter disappointment, the alternate Canadians shook their heads.

Ultron: "Believe it or not, no you all do not possess the 24th chromosome. When you were all in the medical wing, we made sure to do scans on your bodies for any anomalies like diseases, sickness, viruses, etc. We even took blood samples and bio scans on a genetic level to ensure you're all perfectly healthy. During our scans were detected an anomaly or rather the lack thereof."

Marcus: (sighs) "When the results came back, we found out that all of you lack the 24th chromosome. We rechecked it at least 3 times to make sure, thinking there was a malfunction in our systems. After checking to see if everything is functioning properly, we did indeed come to the conclusion that none of you parallel humans possess the 24th chromosome."

Ulrich: "I guess you can see this is another major difference between our humanity and yours. We alternate humans naturally possess an extra pair of chromosomes which naturally make us superhuman while you parallel humans lack it, thus still making you all regular and normal."

The Canadian TSF Pilot winced a bit when he saw the looks of shock and disbelief, along with some being looks of jealously and anger. He supposed he couldn't blame them since if their roles were reversed, they too would feel jealousy and anger due to lacking something they don't naturally have. Of course, now he began to think about the long-term ramifications when the supposed 'Parallel Humans' from the other Earth learn about their existence and how they naturally possess an extra chromosome that makes them superhuman while they do not. Already he can see many will be outraged and jealous to the point they might wanna commit hate crimes against them, similar to how mutants are treated in Marvels X-Men.

Japanese Civilian: #5: (disappointed) "So we really don't possess the 24th chromosome? We can't become superhuman like you guys?"

Mari: (nods) "Yes. And before any of you get any bright ideas, no even if we were to give you all the C24 serum, it would do nothing to your bodies. Keep in mind the serum only REACTIVATES the 24th chromosome, not GIVE you it. So, it would be pretty much useless to you all begin with."

Obviously, this still didn't sit well for the parallel Japanese, especially after learning their alternate counterparts are more 'naturally superior' compared to them. However, there was really nothing they could do but to just move on from there.

After the discussion, the Canadians moved on and talked about the colonization age in the year 2017 where humanity built a fleet of colony ships to colonize the Sol System before eventually building their own space force for military combat, all of this under UCN initiative. The Parallel Japanese were amazed to see their alternate counterparts began colonizing into the star far earlier compared to them and it makes them wonder if their people have the same capacity. However, they soon learn about COVID-19 that began in the year 2019 which originated in China. This made the parallel humans worried as for them it's the year 2017 and they wonder if such a pandemic might happen to them in their timeline.

Soon the alternate Canadians talked about MLK's death in 2021 due to dying from old age at the age of 92. They explained how his death sent shockwaves throughout the globe and how everyone mourned for his death.

Noriko: (surprised) "Everyone? MLK's death really affected everyone?"

Marcus: (nods) "Yes. MLK was well known for making a significant impact not only in Canada, but across the world. He's helped resolved issues that may very well have led to wars. He also acted as a mentor figure for many world leaders as most world leaders today had visited my grandfather for guidance and wisdom. An example is a Filipino man by the name of Ferdinand Marcos who was the former President of the Philippines until he was succeeded by his son. We've learned how he is in your world and how he's often viewed as a ruthless dictator in your timeline."

Japanese Historian: (confused) "How so? If you've read about him, then you should know he was known to be a corrupt dictator to the people of the Philippines."

Marcus: "Well in our world, Ferdinand Marcos was still technically a dictator, but he is considered a benevolent one. You see, before he became President, he once visited MLK for words to wisdom and guidance under advice from his wife. My grandfather taught him the difference between right and wrong, how being a true leader is to help serve the people and make their lives better. After mentoring and showing him the right path, Ferdinand Marcos became one of the greatest Presidents in the Philippines as he helped root out corruption within the nation and how he truly helped better the lives of his people by erasing poverty and famine from the nation. Thus, the Philippines never became a poor third world country like in your world. His son succeeded him in order to continue his father's work and the people loved him for it due to making the nation a much better and safer place."

The Parallel Japanese were shocked and amazed to hear this. It seems that with MLK being alive in the 21st century, he helped make the world a much better and safer place compared to their world. They even saw videos of Ferdinand Marcos and his family crying over MLK death and how they viewed him as like a mentor who helped show them a better path.

Another example that MLK mentored and helped for the better was Pablo Escobar. The alternate Canadians explained that in their timeline, Pablo Escobar never began a form of drug lord or the 'King of Cocaine' as he was remembered in history. Instead, they explained how he met MLK at a young age during his visit to Colombia. Due to certain events, Marcus explains how MLK influenced the supposed 'future drug king' to take a more different path, one that didn't lead him to becoming a criminal and work hard to make the lives ordinary citizens better. As such, when the Federation of South America was first created, Pablo Escobar would become its first President. Under his leadership, many drug cartels and criminal elements within South America were brutally eliminated, thus making the new country much safer for its citizens.

When they finished explaining this, this shocked the Parallel Japanese to those who just so happened to be familiar with Pablo Escobar. The man was an infamous know drug criminal yet in this alternate timeline, thanks to MLK, he turned his life around and made himself a far better man. They can only imagine how the drug cartels in South America will react when they see this, along with the rest of the people who are of Latin American descent.

Soon they continued on as the Canadians talked about the attempted assassination of Shinzo Abe, much to the horror of the Japanese. However, they were relieved to know that he survived, but were saddened to know he lost the ability to walk, resulting in him using bionic legs to help him walk.

(A/N: Just think of the devices strapped onto Rhodey Rhodes legs at the end of Captain America: Civil War.)

Eventually they got to the point where Ultron revealed himself and how the world was terrified at his existence at first, but eventually nothing bad happened as the Canadian government helped show that Ultron was on the side of humanity and not against them. Soon the Parallel Japanese learned that Ultron was accepted, and he then developed more Als to help in the development of humanity. The Parallel Japanese were still somewhat scared as they saw Ultron help mass produce automated weapons and robots. It was like seeing something out of terminator. The difference being that Al worked WITH humanity and NOT against them. They can already begin to imagine the reactions from their Earth and how the people will be terrified to know the Canadians have an Al that's exactly like Skynet.

Eventually they got to the final parts of Canada's history with the current election of Justin Trudeau as President of the USC, something that surprised the Japanese.

Noriko: (surprised and confused) "Wait, 'President' Justin Trudeau? As in Prime Minister Justin Trudeau? The one leading Canada?"

Ultron: "In your world he's the Prime Minister of Canada in the upper north where your world's version of Canada is. However, in our world, he's the current President who now takes office in the White House and now leads the United States of Canada."

An image was shown to see Justin Trudeau sitting in the White House as President. The Parallel Japanese were surprised to see this, and it made them wonder how America will react to know that Justin Trudeau was essentially their President in their world. More than that, the Japanese wondered what Prime Minister Justin Trudeau reactions would be if he ever met his counterpart in the USCs world. They can already picture the look on his face if he ever met his double.

Marcus: "Unfortunately just three weeks after Trudeau became President, our world peace was shattered due to a series of violent terrorist attacks occurring in Europe, with most of them in Ireland and Scottland. "

Wang: (grim tone) "It gets worse. A nuclear bomb was detonated in Shanghai, destroying the entire city and killing over 24 million, 890 thousand people. Many Japanese were living in that city, and they were also killed by the explosion."

A video was shown about the nuclear bombing of Shanghai and the Parallel Japanese cried out in horror as the massive amount of life. Some covered their mouths in horror as they learned that many of their own people were killed in that city.

Roberta: "In the aftermath, this was when Canada and her allies face a new yet old enemy of their that came back to haunt them from the past. The ones responsible for these atrocities is a fascist terrorist organization called the Britannian Revolutionary Front. They are an organization that is comprised of English citizens loyal to the former Holy Britannian Empire who wish to bring about the complete destruction of Canada and the rest of the world for the sins they committed against their ancestors, which wasn't entirely wrong. They commit these terrorist acts as they wish to restore their former Empire and bring about a world of fascism. The BRF is essentially a militant Nazi terrorist organization and we've been fighting them for over a year."

Now this scared the Parallel Japanese. Videos and images were shown as they see violent terrorist attacks happening all over the world. The alternate Canadians speak about the creation of the S.L.A.M. shield system in order to prevent another nuclear attack and the formation of SINTO which was their version of NATO except it united all the national militaries under a single chain of military command. With the world united against them, the Parallel Japanese see the many battle the nations of the UCN face against the BRF. The even watched real life Mecha battles between SINTO TSFs and BRF TSFs in which the terrorists were able to develop or steal. Normally some of the Mecha Fans and Otakus might cheer at the sight of real-life Mecha fight, but they knew that such a thing would be disrespectful. Hence why they wisely kept their mouths shut.

Noriko: (worried) "Do you know who is leading this terrorist group? This all just seems too coordinated to happen at random."

Ultron: (nods) "You would be correct on that. Their leader is this man right here."

A holographic screen appears, showing the face of an adult bald-headed man.

Ultron: "This man is named Erick Windsor. He is the main leader of the Britannian Revolutionary Front and is indeed the direct blood descendant of the Edward VIII, a man of royal blood and a member of the former British Royal family. Just 2 days after his attacks on Ireland, Scottland, and the nuking of Shanghai, Erik revealed himself and made a speech, declaring a global war where he promised to burn to world to ashes and ensure the rise of a new Britannian Empire."

Videos are played to show Erick Windsor revealing himself to the world, literally acting like the evil parallel version of Adolf Hitler where he makes hate speeches and promises to enact vengeance for what happened to his ancestors. Hearing this was shocking for the Parallel Japanese and they could only imagine how their world will react to this, especially their version of the British Royal family due to seeing one of their own family members (albeit an alternate one) literally acting like a Nazi dictator and terrorist.

Eventually the Canadians explained about the chemical bombing in LA and how the GATE appeared in their world, along with the Saderan Empire. Soon Tyuule spoke up about how the Canadians helped save her people from the Empire and the battle of Arnus Hill due to the Allied Armies assaulting both the Canadians and her people.

Marcus: "A month later, the second GATE appeared, the same one in which you Parallel Japanese came from. We saw a huge army near the second GATE and General Kushnirov ordered an immediate mobilization to the GATE, my team included. Sadly, we were too late, and the Imperial Army went through. However, we eventually intervened when the remnant forces of the Imperials came through with your people taken prisoner and the rest is history. So yeah, that's our history up until this point."

When the presentation was now finally over, the Parallel Japanese were all deathly silent. No words can be said as their minds were blown by the fact that they were speaking to an alternate group of humans who actually come from an alternate Earth with a different timeline. Not only that, but they come from an Earth where the technology they have is from the realm of science fiction and they're also now superhuman due to have an extra pair of chromosomes.

Noriko: "So... will we be able to go home?"

Soon the other Parallel Japanese began to ask the same question, and the Canadians had unsure looks on their faces as they knew questions like these were going to pop up.

Marcus: (sigh) "I was afraid of this. Everyone please calm down and let us explain the situation. "

The Parallel Japanese were silent as they all listened.

Marcus: "I completely understand that all of you are desperate to go back home, but unfortunately you can't leave just yet. Until we get in touch with your government, I believe it is in your best interest for all of you to stay with us for now."

Japanese Civilian#2: (wide eyes) "What? Why?"

Ulrich: "Please don't misunderstand the situation you're all in. You're not prisoners here. Your guests and all of you will be accommodated with basic necessities. Our government is currently being informed of your situation and the appearance of the second GATE. If we were to take you all there right now and go through the second GATE, it's possible your government will undoubtably think we kidnapped you. Worst case scenario, this misunderstanding will potentially cause a war between our two nations and that is the LAST thing we need to happen."

Logan: (nods) "He's right actually. No doubt your government is mobilizing the JSDF to be sent through the GATE for operations in the Special Region. Once they pass through the GATE, we should be able to contact them and inform that all of you are in our care. No doubt there will be negotiations between our two governments. Once things are stable between us, we'll be able to safely bring you all back to your homes."

Roberta: "So please, we implore you all that for your own safety, please stay with us until we are able to safely contact your government in order to bring you all home."

The Parallel Japanese began talking amongst themselves. Many wanted to go back home to their loved ones, but after hearing their explanation, they knew the Canadians had a very good point. Some began to feel dread that the thought of war breaking out between both Parallel Japan and Alternate Canada. Already they know the JSDF will be massacred by Canada's advanced military technology. After a few moments, all of them agreed to stay with the Canadians until their people can bring them back home.

Marcus: (nods) "Thank you. We'll escort you all now to your temporary living areas until proper housing can be construct for you stay."

The Parallel Japanese nodded as the JRF1 escorted them.

========== (Scene Change) ==========

It had been a few days, but within the Saderan Empire, Molt had a look of shock on his face when he heard the news as he sat on his throne.

Molt: (shocked) "What?! Just how many slaves did we lose?!"

Molt's voice echoed through the room, startling the guards.

Molt: (glare) "Marcus, are you absolutely sure of this?"

Marcus is shown to be a middle-aged man, with bald head and no eyebrows. 

The loyal retainer didn't even flinch as he wasn't bothered by the emperor's outbursts. What he was most worried about was the contents within the letters he recently received. Just hours ago, several messengers had arrived on horse with fearful and almost insane looks on their face. The news they received was less than pleasing. Not only did the city of Palos, the second largest city in the Empire and biggest source of commerce and slave trading, had fallen to the enemy, but several important towns and cities have also fallen to the enemy while the slaves living there have been freed. What's even worse is that several key fortresses have been destroyed, weaking their defenses and causing hole to open up on their boarder defenses. All of this had just happened at least a week ago and they were just getting the news now. When it came to the messengers, it was considered unclear if these men escaped through sheer, dumb luck or were allowed to leave deliberately by the enemy in an attempt to cause discord and despair among the Empire's populace.

Marcus: (grim tone) "I'm afraid it's true your Majesty. The Senate is in an uproar at the recent news. Many had family members in those cities and towns. We currently have no knowledge about the state of the inhabitants in those areas, but they can't be considered good. Worse still, the situation of our vassal states is starting to deteriorate and our ability to operate is being limited each day. "

Molt clenched his fists and gritted his teeth in anger at the news. He had also just recently received news from his spies that King Duran was indeed alive and heading back to Elbe, along with remnant forces of his army and the others. Molt had a feeling that the Lion of Elbe not only survived the failed assault on Arnus Hill, but it seems he also figured out his plan and will want revenge. Normally Molt would've just hired assassins to kill the King, but he then rejected such an idea. Doing so would be considered a waste of manpower and give the vassal states an excuse just to rally their forces in order to bring rebellion to the Empire. While he did expect the vassal states to be weakened, he also hoped to still use them by twisting their desires for revenge. But now that plan was no longer available.

Furthermore, Molt had also learned that survivors of Zorzal's and the Allied Armies had turned to banditry. He had gotten reports of them razing, pillaging, or burning villages, towns, or cities to the ground while also murdering or raping any people they come across. The people of the Empire were completely defenseless and there was nothing Molt could do about it due to the situation he was facing right now.

In some way, it was considered helpful as it denied the enemy food and water. Molt just hoped it would be enough to slow the enemies advance long enough for the Imperial Army to reorganize. However, after hearing the fall of Palos, he had a feeling that scorched earth tactics may not be enough to stop them.

The only place that stopped the economy from completely collapsing was Italica. Molt knew that with the death of Count Formal, it was only a matter of time before the city was under attack and would eventually fall. What's worse it that his daughter was heading over there, along with a couple of her knights. He needed to find some way to contact her and have her return to the capital as soon as possible.

Marcus: "Forgive me your Majesty, but the Senate will want answers. Already, there are many who now question your judgement-"

Molt: (tired sigh) "Let them. I do not have the time or place to deal with such cowardly politicians. Please just... just leave here for now. I... I need to think."

Marcus was silent before he gave a respectful bow and left. Normally he wanted to argue but knew full well there was a lot on the Emperor's mind. As Molt was left to his thoughts, the man soon came to one conclusion as to why this was happening: This entire catastrophe was the fault of Zorzal and the Senators who were pro-war. He was so foolish to listen to them and invade both GATEs. Molt swore that if Zorzal is somehow alive, he will have the boy whipped in public, blood be damned. As for the senators who so foolishly believed in continuing their war against the foreigners, he'll make sure they all suffer the worst punishment ever imaginable. 

========== (Scene Change) ==========

Back on the alternate Earth, the scene changes to show a futuristic city where the White House is.

Inside the building, President Justin Trudeau is seen reviewing the reports and discovery of the second GATE that appeared in the Special Region. With him are his cabinet members, Military Chief of Staff, and a few notable Generals and Military Leaders. One of the most notable Canadian Generals in the room is Major General Naruhito who just so happens to be the Grandson of Hirohito himself.

They were all reading the reports of the 'Japanese' people they rescued from the second GATE and were completely shocked at the origins and history of the Parallel Earth they call come from. Naruhito, who was still in the room, was shocked to know that his grandfather survived and wasn't murdered in a coup, along with the other members of the Royal Family. It was even more surprising to know it was Douglas MacArthur who spared him.

Andrew: (amazed) "Fascinating. I know the GATE is actually a dimensional portal, but to think it can also open a portal to a Parallel/Alternate Earth. I can only imagine the possibilities this can bring. This very much brings more questions and answers like never before. If we are able to reverse engineer the GATE, imagine all the scientific research we can acquire by discovering more Parallel/Alternate Earths."

Justin: "Let's not go too far Doctor. Right now, we need to focus on the situation at hand right now."

Andrew: (embarrassed) "Er... Yes Mr. President. Forgive me."

Dirrel Montrose and Robert Lighthizer then spoke up.

Dirrel: (shocked) "What the hell? The American Revolution?"

Robert: (shocked) "This can't be. We're friends with the British?"

The USC Cabinet members and Military Generals were talking amongst themselves about the recent events that have popped up in the Special region. Specifically, the appearance of a second GATE and the existence of the Parallel Japanese. They have read about their worlds history and are shocked about how different it is compared to their world's history. The most shocking thing was the alternative version of the Canadian Revolution that is now called the American Revolution in the Parallel Earth. The Canadians in the room were also shocked to know that only 13 colonies chose to succeed from Britain instead of all the colonies of North America. The rest of the history was both shocking and disturbing as they can see that this Parallel Earth was far more divided compared to their Earth, along with the problems that plague the globe.

After reading the reports and the intel of the Parallel history, the room was silent as everyone in the room was unsure what to say. No one was to be blamed and many were quite disturbed to know they were allies to the British given their bloody and violent history with them.

Chrystia: "So... what do we do now? It's obvious we can't just ignore this. "

Navdeep: "She's right. What are we going to do about the second GATE? Not only that, but what are we going to do with the Japanese under our care?"

Mark: "It's obvious their military will be sent thought the GATE to investigate the Special Region. How are we going to tell them we have their people without causing a misunderstanding that might 'accidently' cause a war?"

As the USC cabinet was talking among themselves, Justin Trudeau was silent as he had both his hands clasped together while in a thinking position. The Canadian President was torn between two decisions with both having very good points on what to do when possibly interacting with the Parallel Japanese Government. On one hand, he knew that the Canadian Government couldn't keep silent about this. Sooner or later, the Japanese government will indeed come here to the Special Region and they'll be forced to reveal themselves. Not only that, but the people on their Earth will eventually find out about the Parallel Japanese and the appearance of the second GATE. Justin knew that the nations of the UCN will want answers and possibly want to meet the Parallel Japanese. However, Justin was worried that if this information gets out, the BRF will catch wind of it and might plan to capture some of the Parallel Japanese in order to use them as bargaining chips to gain access to the GATE. The man was no fool as he knew the Britannian's will do everything they can to gain the advantage over them. It was obvious they knew about the appearance of the GATE, but if they knew about the second GATE and the existence of the Parallel Japanese, they would no doubt take an interest in them and try to take advantage of them for their own gain. Worst case scenario, they could even kill one or some of them, possibly causing an international incident with the Parallel Japanese. He knew that if they failed to protect any of their citizens under their care, the Parallel Japanese will by outraged to the point of sparking a war.

On the other hand, things could go south very quickly. Justin was afraid that the JSDF might misunderstand their actions and believe they kidnapped their citizens which could possibly ignite a war between their two nations. If that didn't happen, war still might happen once they learn about their world's history, especially with that they did to their version of Japan. There was no doubt in his mind that once they meet the JSDF, their government will want answers as to who they are and their origins. If they learn their history, they'll learn about their counterpart's fate. No doubt this will enrage the Parallel Japanese to the point of open war, something Justin wants to avoid no matter the cost. And it wasn't just Parallel Japan he was worried about, but also the Parallel Earth nations on the other side of the GATE. Given how divided that Earth is, he's worried that if they learn of the USCs history, it could ignite WW3 on their world while also declaring war against the USC and her allies.

The Canadian President groaned in annoyance as he covered his face with his hand. He honestly questioned if things can only get worse and more complicated. Unfortunately, things did get worse and more complicated when a Canadian Officer barged into the room with important information.

Canadian Officer: (salutes) "Mr. President sir! It's urgent!"

Everyone in the room looked at the Officer in surprise.

Justin: (confused) "What is it? What's going on?"

Canadian Officer: "Mr. President, I'm afraid to inform you that someone has leaked photos and videos of the second GATE and the Parallel Japanese."

The President and USC Cabinet members were utter shocked at what they heard.

Dirrel: (shocked) "What?! That's impossible! Who the HELL leaked this to the internet?!"

Canadian Officer: "Unknown sir. Whoever they were seemed to have revealed some highly classified information about what's going on in the Special Region. CIA believe someone managed to hack into our databases, despite aid from our Al's."

Some of the cabinet members groaned in annoyance. They had hoped to wait a little longer to reveal the truth, mainly due to fears of the BRF. But now they realize they have no choice but to spill the beans.

Dirrel: (curious) "What's the plan Mr. President?"

Justin Trudeau was silent for a moment before he spoke.

Justin: "...Does the UCN know?"

Canadian Officer: (nods) "Yes sir. When the information was leaked, world leaders are all demanding answers about the existence of the second GATE and the Parallel Japanese. They also want a meeting with them to determine their origins, especially China and Russia since they reported about having no GATE opening in their territory."

Daniel: (worried) "This is very bad. What about the Britannian's? They'll probably know about this right now."

Justin: "Alright look. As much as I hate to say it... contact our base and tell then we'll prepare a meeting. Also contact the JRF1 to assemble a delegation of representatives from the Parallel Japanese under our care. At least 5 will do and have them sent through the GATE so the UCN will meet them."

Deb Haaland thought otherwise.

Deb: "Mr. President, with all due respect sir, but I don't believe this is a good idea. We still have to deal with the Britannian Revolutionary Front who are still a major threat in our world. Worst case scenario, they'll know we brought some of the Parallel Japanese to our would and may attempt to capture them. Hell, they probably might even wish to kill them all in order to cause a diplomatic incident with their government who I have no doubt we'll be forced to meet."

Justin: (sigh) "I know. Believe me I am fully aware. But in this case, I really don't think we have a choice. The UCN and the people want answers. If we deny it, it'll cause problems in the long run. The best we can do is beef up security and do all we can to protect the Parallel Japanese from the BRF. We can only hope for the best."

Everyone in the room gave each other looks as they all knew that the President was right. With how the situation is right now, telling the truth is their only best action in order to prevent severe backlash. It was then Naruhito spoke up.

Naruhito: "If it's all the same to you Mr. President... I would like the chance of meeting my People's counterparts."

Justin: (nods) "Permission granted. But may I ask why?"

Naruhito: "I honestly curious about meeting an alternate version of my people and want to know what their life is like on the Parallel Earth."

Justin: "I understand. Does everyone understand what needs to be done? Remember, protecting the Parallel Japanese representatives is our #1 priority. Everything else is considered secondary. I have no doubt we'll be forced to meet their government when the time comes. No matter what, we MUST protect their people or risk a major international incident that can spark a war against the Parallel Japanese. Am I clear?"

Everyone in the room said 'Yes Mr. President' as they all began to organize for the meeting in the USC building. The Canadian President requested that everyone leaves so that he may be alone, something all of them obliged. Soon everyone left the office, leaving the President alone. Justin them leaned back on his chair as he let out a tired sigh while putting a hand on his face.

Justin Thoughts: (annoyed sigh) "Dear God... since when did things start to get so complicated?"

========== (Scene Change) ==========

Back on the other side of the GATE, Lt. General Sergei Kushnirov had gotten word that information about the second GATE and the Japanese refugees have gotten out to the public. Already he's receiving reports about protests and riots breaking out all over the world as many wanted answers as to what was going on at the other side. Worse, things have gotten international and various nations have demanded answers about the second GATE and the Japanese people who came from there since Russia and China have reported of no GATE appearing in their territory. The Russian-Canadian General groaned in annoyance as he felt a massive headache on what he was reading. It was clear the people will want answers and the UCN will want to meet the Parallel Japanese to determine their origins and why they're here.

Sergei Thoughts: (annoyed groan) "Why do I always deal with situations like these?"

Both Maximus and Shing were in the room and the two men gave each other worried looks. It was clear the situation back home has changed drastically and that something had to be done. However, they considered the meeting between their world's leaders and the Parallel Japanese to be too soon. Not only that, but they were worried about the BRF and what they'll do once they learn that some of the Parallel Japanese are now in their world.

Shing: "General... what do we do?"

Sergei was silent for a moment before speaking again.

Sergei: "Contact Col. Marcus and his team. Inform them of the situation and ask to gather 5 Parallel Japanese to be sent through the GATE for a meeting with the UCN meeting."

Shing: (nods) "Yes sir."

Shing left the room, leaving both Maximus and Sergei in the room. Maximus looked at Sergei with a worried look on his face.

Maximus: (worried) "You know this is a terrible idea right?"

Sergei: (sigh) "I know General. Believe me I know. We can only hope for the best." 

========== (Scene Change) ==========

Following their orders, the JRF1 has once again called a meeting with the Japanese as they informed them of big news back at their world. They were explaining the situation on what's going on in their world and how their world's leaders request a meeting with them.

Marcus: "Alright people, listen up. There is an emergency going on right now. Some idiot hasn't kept his or her mouth shut and now the people from our Earth know about your existence and the existence of the second GATE. The Canadian Government is currently investigating who the culprit is. However, our world leaders and the public are all demanding answers. Hence why it has been decided that we'll choose 5 representatives from all of you to come with us to the other side of the GATE. A meeting will be held in the UCN building as many world leaders will wants answers as to who you are and where you all come from."

The Parallel Japanese began talking to each other about the situation now. It was clear that this was something big and that they all knew it was only a matter of time before they found out about their existence. Although some were curious about what lies on the other side of the GATE and what the alternate Earth looks like.

Noriko: "Will we be able to explore your world before and after the meeting?"

Roberta: (sigh) "Unfortunately no. We're worried about the possibility of the BRF catching wind of your existence and possibly attempt to kidnap some of you. Security is going to be tight when you enter our world, and your safety will be our number one priority."

Marcus: (nods) "Hence why it's been decided that once the meeting is over, the representatives will immediately be sent back through the GATE before trouble can occur. I know that some of you will be disappointed at this but understand that your safety is our highest priority. As stated before, the BRF could possibly capture you and use you as a bargaining chip to gain access through the GATE. Or worse, they kill you which will no doubt cause an international incident with your government. Worst case scenario, if any of you were to die under our care it could lead to a war between our two nations. That is the LAST thing we want to happen."

The Parallel Japanese were disappointed at hearing this, but after hearing just how much of a threat the BRF, they decided to accept their decision. After seeing just how advanced the Canadian military is, it was true that the last thing they all wanted was a war to happen between their two nations. After some time and choosing, five members were selected to go through the GATE. The members were Noriko Mochizuki, that same Japanese Historian that spoke to whose name is Naoki Masako, two police officers named Kenta Hiroshi and Kane Oda, and two students named Mieko Nobu and Misato Akihiro who were a couple and Naoki's pupils.

After two hours, the team and representatives were prepared as they all entered into the vehicles and made their way into the GATE.

========== (Scene Change) ==========

Within the city of Los Angeles, the center of the city has been turned into a military fortress. Due to the importance of the GATE, a giant metal dome was placed over it with massive security needed to protect unwanted guests, especially from the Britannian Revolutionary Front.

After the reveal of the photos and videos of the second GATE and the appearance of Japanese people being rescued, protests and riots broke out all over the world a people demanded answers. When world leaders found out about the photos and videos, they all immediately demanded answers at who what was going on and who the Japanese people were. China and Russia especially since they reported about having no GATE appearing within their territory.

Back within the GATE, the Japanese delegation that was chose were shrouded in darkness as they all waited on what was on the other side and what they see.

Mieko: (curious) "I wonder what we'll see?"

Misato: "I learned we're going to LA. I bet the city must be futuristic compared to our world."

Naoki: (nods) "Given their level of technology, I have no doubt about that. "

Kenta: (curious) "I wonder if they have VR games that are similar to Sword Art Online?"

Kane: "If they do, I seriously wanna have a chance at playing that kind of game."

It was then Marcus can be heard over on the radio.

Marcus: (radio) "Everyone get ready. We're about to exit through the GATE."

Soon the delegation was blinded for a brief moment by a flash of light. When the bright light died down, the Japanese delegation is utterly shocked at what they all saw.

The selected Japanese delegations were utterly shocked at the sight of Los Angeles.

Misato: (shocked) "Huh... so I was right."

The city looked like something out of science fiction. In their eyes, they can tell this version of Los Angeles was not only radically advanced, but they can clearly see that its skyscrapers and massive structures would put even the greatest of Earth's cities in their 21st century to shame. They were all amazed at the sight futuristic city they were all in and how majestic it looked as a few took out their phones and took pictures.

Marcus: (radio) "Everyone, welcome to Los Angeles."

The Japanese delegation were in shock and awe at the sight of the futuristic city.

Noriko Thoughts: (shocked) "So this... this is the world the Canadians come from."
