Mr President
Harris Marched into the Capitol, among him were some high ranking imperial officers, and as he marched troops patrolling the streets began to trail him. They formed a column and followed him on a march right onto the steps of the imperial palace. Harris turned as he reached the top steps, looking down at the crowd that had amassed and followed him. He fixed his new cap and looked at the people. They were ready for a change, the empire was going stagnant and they looked to the one who could save it. Harris nervously smirked at the crowds of troops and civilians, they supported what was going to happen, but Will himself, wasn't entirely sure.
There was no going back now. Harris tipped his hat to the crowds and nodded, confirming the suspicions and rumors of a coup. The people stood and watched as Harris, accompanied by a few soldiers walked through the doors of the palace. As William walked through the doorway, he listened for any noise from the crowd. There was none. Outside the Palace was utter silence, peace. As Harris marched through the doors, two imperial Guards lounged at him, swinging their staffs at this treasonous intruder. The guards were immediately stunned and handcuffed by Harris' supporters within the building. As Harris entered the throne room, he spotted the emperor.
"I'm Sorry your majesty, but the people's opinion has swayed, you have committed treason, and I have to do what I can for the betterment of the empire. You can choose to right your wrongs and support me, or oppose me, the choice is yours."
"I will never support a dictator William, You know I can't. I did what I had to do to try to look out for my self."
"If I am a dictator, then I will use my absolute power to serve those I rule. I am one who will support the people, I will put them first, and I will try to save this sinking ship. I may be ruling unopposed, but I will never kill innocence. I will never take federal funds for myself, and I will never feed information to a hostile force. You knew my loyalties when I arrived. You made me take an oath renouncing them. I promised to uphold the empire and all it stood for. But when I told you reform was needed, When I told you we were stagnating, and when I came to you about anomalies in the defense budget, you brushed me off. I see now that in order to save this empire, I must remove you. You have a choice my Emperor, listen to my advice, face your crimes, and manage to uphold limited power, or you may revolt and be brought down."
"You don't understand my position William, you don't understand why I had to. I will not submit to you over something I did out of desperation."
"And I never will. You live in a palace, you have everything handed to you, and you want more. You lust for power Toran. Please do as I ask."
"I can not, I will not."
Harris reached to the back of his belt and pulled forth a pair of cuffs. He looked sadly at his Emperor. "I'm sorry sir." Harris slipped the cuffs onto his right hand and forced the other to meet it behind his back before tightening. "Through the power invested in me by you, the Emperor, and the Fel Empire which I strive to serve, You are under arrest your highness."
A stormtrooper who was standing behind Harris in the doorway approached and grabbed the cuffed Emperor. Harris turned away and shook his head.
"Time to address the people." Harris mumbled to himself.
