    I looked out the window of the limousine and there was a huge crowd assembling outside the Bear News building. As I looked up, the limo door opened and a security officer stuck his head in and said, “Hurry please, my men will surround you and get you in the building; otherwise, this crowd will tear you apart.” He then looked at Mark and said, “Are you coming too?”
     
    Mark said, “Yes.”
    Then it occurred to me the guard could not see Gabriel and Ariel or he would have asked them too and yet Mark and I still could. “Let’s go Mark,” I said. Mark looked at Gabriel who winked at him and then climbed out of the car. We started sprinting for the doors between the guards.
    The security detail was good. It only took about ten seconds to push the crowd away and get us safely in the doors. They doors were then locked and guarded by Bear News private security force. The people outside the building were screaming and waving their arms and hands in the air. Many and had signs that said ‘Save Us’, and ‘Satan Is in Our Midst.’ I then turned around from the glass door and said, “Where we are going?”
    “Up to the third floor, to the studios,” the guard said. I took note of his nametag that said McDonald.
    “Thanks, Mr. McDonald,” and then I looked at my watch. It was 9:12 a.m.

A full copy of the statement will be delivered to you afterwards, along with an executive order that will be implemented immediately.”
    Secretary Hughes stepped away from the microphones and stood next to the other cabinet members already present. The Sergeant of Arms then stepped up to the microphone and announced, “The President of the United States.”
    President Stevenson walked down the walkway from the White House, up to the podium and said, “Good morning everyone and thank you for coming on such short notice. We are all aware of what has happened in Southern California and that this act of nature is one that we knew might be coming someday. We are moving as quickly as we can to start the process of helping secure the areas affected in California and to provide immediate aid for those in need. FEMA and Homeland Security are already mobilizing in the area to meet the needs in California as necessary.”
    “I have spoken to Governor McClellan of California and have advised him that we have declared a state of emergency not only for the affected area but the surrounding areas also. We are also implementing Article 1, Section 9 and declaring martial law in those areas. The National Guard is immobilizing as we speak and will have a command post set up shortly. Rioting and public disorder will not be, tolerated and all police powers are being, given to the field commanders and their troops. They are to take whatever measures are necessary to secure the area and keep the peace.”
