Alison was been gang raped by four man, one year ago. The men that conduct the rape was not been found guilty of any crime, but Alison was been sentence to death, for been a woman engaged in pre marital sex. Sonia and Alison are already orphans, their mother was an unwed mother and when the Catholic liberation force took power, the religion police arrested and executed their mother, for been an unwed mother. The sisters, whom was only eight and ten years old back then, was been forced to live under the custody of the church. Under the church's custody, they were been locked in a cell, everyday, during the day, the nuns would drag them out of their cell, where they would be force to conduct heavy labour, dangerous for a child, those whom are injured and can't work, would be killed. At night, they would be lock back in their cell, given a little bit of food, maybe bread or a little bit of rice. They lived there for two years, till one day, the rebels, blow a big hole at the wall of the prison and children were been given the opportunity to escape.

Since then Sonia and Alison lived on the street, sometime, when they can, they beg and people would give them food or money, other times, they steal, when they can, they become prostitutes. But the economy wasn't good either, the tax rate of the Catholic Republic of Australia is extremely high, most of these money are been given to the glorification of the Catholic church and on the army. Under the policy the more and more started to struggle to pay their taxes. To sustain the economy and keep the upper class' support the government, gave tax break to those whom are of upper class. The Catholic Republic of Australia, is in fact a puppet state of the Catholic church. Those whom can run for political office, must be pre approved by the Catholic church. Frequently, there is only one candidate for election and if the Church do not see a candidate they like, they can appoint a person to the positions, including President. The President might be the Commander in Chief of the military of the Catholic Republic of Australia, but that command authority is subjected to the pop's command and the military is subject to the order of the church before been subjected to the orders of the President.

The Catholic Republic of Australia has been in power for ten years and the economy is getting worse by the day. Sonia and Alison sat there quietly for hours. Until they are certain the police are gone.

"Come on, let's go." Sonia said, leading Alison back on the street.

They then escape into another narrow street. There lived a rich elderly man, he is on the good side of the church, by pretending to be a devoted Catholic and send his daughter into the monastery, to be a nun. Everyday, the old man give food, to the poor. It isn't a lot of food that the old man can afford to give, consider there are so many starving people. But he give what he can. Sonia and Monica waited in line, for two hours, until they received only one piece of toast, but this piece of toast has some melted butter on it and for times like these, this is a major treat. The sisters each eat half of the toast.

It was a cold and raining night, but tonight they have the privilege not to spend the night sleeping on the streets. Their pimp, connected them with a wealthy client. The sister don't get paid a lot, but enough to buy at least one decent meal and stay out of the cold, for one night. The pimp ride his tricycle, to the address of the house. There are little petrol left, after economic sanction has been in place. Only the military, high ranking government officials and priests can afford to drive cars. The house was pretty big, it even have electricity and running water. The sisters walked into the house. There is one house keeper.

"Go into the bathroom and get wash up first. The guy that own the place, will meet you soon." the house keeper said.

The sisters took a shower. Afterwards, they came out with tower drying them up.

"Put this on." the house keeper said, hanging the sisters two dresses.

The dress look classy and sexy in the same time. The sister put it on. Later, the house keeper escorted the girls into a bed room. Inside the room, there is an old man, around 60 years old. He was wearing a rob. He stood up, walked a circle around each girl inspecting them.

"Lovely, very lovely." the old man said and then he returned to sit down on his chair.

"Why don't the two of you kiss and make out a bit first." the old man said

Alison felt a bit uncomfortable "We are sisters" she said

"So?" the old man said and signal them to hurry up.

So, Alison and Sonia started hugging and French kissing each other.

"Lovely, just lovely." the old man said, after a little while, "now come here." the old man said

the sisters joined the old man on the chair and then, they had sex.

Part 2~

Taiwan President Zhan Xiang-Shon and Japanese Prime Minister Yuki Takeru met in the APEC summit in Shanghai.

China, is currently under the rule of Taiwan. The last time the Chinese Communist Party, tried to invade India, they faced war on all front, Russians and Mongols at the North, UN funded India and Vietnam at the South and at the East they faced Japan, Taiwan and the UN. In this war, they lost Tibet, Hong Kong, Goungzhou and Shanghai to the allies and was forced to pay a huge sum of money. But during this time a new group of Muslim extremists force took power in Yamen and was starting to prove as a direct threat to the US. Three years later, after the war with China, the UN found them self once again engage in a war with an Taliban like organization. The Catholic church volunteer to form their own new militia group, calling on Catholic faithful to fight, in the name of god and help fight this new threat. The new Catholic army received funding from the UN. During the eighth year into the war, the Chinese Communist Party tried to retake Tibet, Goungzhou, Hong Kong and Shanghai, from the Taiwanese. So another war, with between China and the UN broke out. The Catholic church volunteer, to stay behind to fight this new group of Muslim extremists while the UN is engage at Asia and as a result, the UN funded Catholic forces continue to recruited Catholic faithfuls and continue to expand. By the time the war in Asia is over, the Catholic forces have conquer Yamen, but have no intention of giving it up. Few people see this as a problem, because Yamen is poor and the church promise to pull out, after helping to reestablished Yamen's economy. The result of this last war with China, Taiwan now control all of South East China. A third war erupted, with the Chinese Communist Party tried to retake South East China. Once again the UN engage in total war with China. This time, with the reinforcement, of army from each South East China provinces. Unknown to the public the Catholic church secretly, established their power base in the entire western world and in the same time, strengthen their forces at Yamen, during this war. During the sixth year into this total war, the Catholic church launched a surprised move to attack Italy and took control of it, within one year, it was taking control of all of Europe and formed the Catholic Republic of Europe, with Rome, as its Capital. Their power base in South America revolt, to create a new era of Crusade and Holy war. The Russian forces, were force to fight war on two front, one against the Catholic Republic of Europe, the other against China. During this time, Taiwan and Japan, joined forces to launch a secret operation, after spending four years of gathering intelligence, the two nations, took control of the Communist's Capital/strong hold, Beijing and hold their Federal government hostage and control all of China through controlling the Federal government, then slowly transfer power from China, to Taiwan. The US forces returned to fight the Catholic Republic of Europe. But back home they also face pro Catholic rioters, because most of the Atlantic fleet was been moved to fight the Chinese, the Catholic Republic of Europe, was able to fund the pro Catholic rioters in the US and pro Catholic rebels in South America, to revolt, even sending in reinforcements. The Atlantic fleet, allied with the navy of South Africa, was able to defeat the navy of the Catholic Republic of Europe's navy, suffering a 25% causality, but and since then, stopping further reinforcement, by creating navel blockage, but the Pro Catholic rioters, already established a foot hold at Eastern Canada and formed the Catholic Democratic Republic of Canada, they have also taken parts of Mexico and formed the Holy Republic of Mexico. The entire America region are at war, back home the US also face civil war against the pro Catholic forces. Despite defeating the navy of Catholic Republic of Europe and can now form a navel blockage, to stop further reinforcement from the Catholic Republic of Europe, the US is now facing a civil war, with the pro Catholic rebels, that want to form the Catholic Federation of America.

Having little faith in the west's ability to fend off this new threat, the none western world, strengthen their defense and declare martial law against the Catholic church. Secret police was been set up, arresting Catholic priests and nuns and executed, to avoid the influence of the Catholic church threat, coming into their region. Others whom are known as member of the Catholic church or in favor of the church, was been black listed. Taiwan slowly take control of all of China. Taiwan used to self govern policy in China, in name, all of China is a part of Taiwan, but in practice, each province of China is an independent country, subject to Taiwan. Their government, include a Prime Minister, a Governor General and a Senate for legislation. The Prime Minister elected by the people of the province, control the executive branch of the government, the governor general is appointed by the President of Taiwan. Each province have their own military, formally known as regional defense guards, with the President of Taiwan as the Commander in chief, Defense minister of Taiwan as second command in chief, the minister of regional defense guards as third in command as commander in chief and the governor general of their own province as the fourth in command as commander in chief. Legally speaking the regional defense guards, is a part of Taiwan military.

There is a reason Taiwan is the one that ended up ruling all of China. Despite defeating the Communist, is an join effort of international forces, under the leadership of the US. Taiwan is the only country, that can control China. As a method to secure their power, the Communist continue to teach, those whom are of same race, culture and heritage is our people, the rest is our enemy. And persecuted against anybody that speak out against this view, including charging university lecturer that spoke out against this view, for treason. Taiwan was an immigration country, colonized by China during the late 17th century. And has a Chinese immigration majority, as a result, are been seen as their own by Chinese that are brain washed by the Communist, making them more submissive to the rule of Taiwan, in comparison to any other foreign nations, Taiwan rule is even welcome by some, who hate the Communist.

The increase threat of the Catholic church, is hot topic, on this year's APEC summit in Shanghai and everybody have a different opinion. Dun Wang, the Prime Minister of Shanghai is a hardliner that want to end the Taiwan Empire's support to the west, arguing the Catholic threat is not a direct threat to Asia. As a former member of the Chinese Communist party, Dun Wang want to use every opportunity to put down any decision of Taiwan that can effect Shanghai and when Taiwan decide to provide funds to help the US and their allies in America, to fight the Catholic rebels, it mean drawing funds from the wealthier province of China, also.

New Zealand, Russia and part of Australia, remain out of the control of the Catholic rebels. With reinforcement from Asia, but it happen at a cost. When the forces of the Catholic rebels first appear in Australia, the pro Catholic Prime Minister, Jeff Strings surrender to the Catholic rebels without a fight, ordering the Australia military to stand down. Until he was assassinated by his own body guards, over this.

"Dang Wang has chosen to speak directly to the media, asking why are we providing funds to America again." Japan Prime Minister Yuki Takeru said

"I know. It is all over the news of Shanghai" President Zhan Xian-Shon said

"I don't know why, you people allow former Communist member to keep running for office after this. After WW2, the allies hunted the Nazi and brought them to trial." Yuki said, she is a short and slightly heavy old lady, whom wear a pair of glasses and has curly hair.

"It is a political move to ensure our control over China, is smooth. People tend to fight to the death, when they felt they have no chance of survival. But if they have another option, it might be just what is require to get them to submit to you. If we took a hard line approach towards the Communist back then, we probably have another ten years of revolt, against the Communist. Despite we managed to hold Communist China's federal government hostage, it is unlikely they would do as we say, if they know we will kill them, after they transfer power to us." Zhan Xian-Shon said

"Instead, now you have an annoying Prime Minister, trying to undermine every decision you ever made." Yuki said

"Well, at least they have no military influence now. Just don't make the same mistake with them, as we made with the Catholic church." Zhan Xian-Shon said

"I hope you are right. If the Communist come back into power. I am not sure we can fight both the Communist and the Vatican at the same time." Yuki said

"The Chinese Communist party is now dissolved, after a few generation, there will be nothing of them left." Zhan Xian-shon said

"Dang Wang still seek a private one on one time with you." Yuki said

"I know, it is just for show. That is his policy since he got elected, he don't want another cent of money from Shanghai spend to help the North and South Americans." Xian-shon said

"We need to fund the Americans. The Catholic rebels control certain Eastern territory of America and is putting up quiet a fight. Right now, they are not in such great disadvantage position in a land warfare. If they managed to gain access to Western part of South or North America, that is a direct sea link to Asia. This is especially a problem for South American countries, Mexico and Canada. Additional funds from Asia, is going to keep those Catholic forces at the East" Yuki said

"I know. I have made this point clear in the media, again and again. Especially, to the people of Shanghai." Xian-shon said

Currently, there are three province of China, whose Prime Minister are former member of the Chinese Communist Party, including the Prime Minister of Beijing and Prime Minister of Liaoning. However, surprisingly the Prime Minister of Liaoning, is extremely in favor of the policy of aiding America, she see the raising military power of the Catholic church to be a very big threat. The Prime Minister of Tibet, have always been pro Taiwan, the People Democrat party have won every election, for the position of Prime Minister, since they are no longer under the control of the Communist. The Buddhist monks of Tibet want to stay out of politics, now the Communist is no longer in power, but they do fund political parties, which they believe would be of great benefit to Tibet and world peace and the People Democrat party, is the single party that received massive support from all the major Buddhism temple, in Tibet. But the issue of Catholic church, is the last thing on their Prime Minister's mind, right now, he is focusing on trade with India and Tibet's neighbor China provinces.
