Der Kaiser and Il Duce

[Latin Union]

Roma, Provincia di Lazio, L'Unione Latina

Once again the Latin leader was preparing her conference room for yet another visit by a foreign leader. Alessandra decided to greet her ally with a special treat, instead of the usual wine of Latin tradition, she choose to serve beer native to the Latin Union. She thought of how busy her conference schedule has been for the last few months, as with times of the past, being a major power in important times means....alot of meetings.

(OOC: This meeting will be assumed to take place after tomorrow's World Cup match since the Kaiser will be there. So, therefore, this thread will be assumed a different timeline.)

Vienna International Airport, Vienna, Austria

"Mein Kaiser, your plane is ready." The young woman smiled at him warmly and gestured for him to follow her. The Kaiser and his security entourage rose and made their way to the terminal gate where they exited to the terminal and boarded the Kaiser's personal jet. Maximilian made himself comfortable in his seat and prepared for the takeoff, pulling a stack of notes from his briefcase. I have to be prepared... A stewardess stood next to him and asked if he wanted a drink after takeoff, to which he responded he would take a beer. He thought back to that morning, arriving back in Austria from the match in Israel, how tired he already was after one trip. This is going to be a long month... The captain came across the intercom and stated the current weather, the estimated time of arrival and wished him a good flight.

Before he knew it the plane was in the air, and, though he had the pile of notes, his eyes began to grow heavy...

The President and her body guards sat quietly as their Maserati limo cruised effortlessly on the Roman highway. Allessandra's interest in the charismatic and energetic Austrian ruler had grown tremendously since the two nations had become allies, Austria had proven a very solid and resourceful ally during the last few months and the Duce was very curious as to what topics the Kaiser thought urgent enough to warrant a state visit. With the world seeming to become more hostile to Latin policy, she hoped it was nothing that would be too serious.

"Mein Kaiser, we have landed," the subtle nudge from his secretary had been enough to wake him and he looked around the roomy airplane recollecting his thoughts. "If I am correct, the President herself is on her way to personally greet you. Is there anything I can get you at the moment?" The secretary was a tall blond man, in his mid-thirties, but rather feminine in many aspects.

The Kaiser shrugged and momentarily spaced out, his eyes not focusing at all so that everything in his line of sight was extremely blurry. "Kaiser?"

"Oh, um..." he shook his head trying to wake himself. "Actually," he started, paused, then finished, "can I get some of those dark chocolate covered espresso beans I like so much? Honestly, you would be my hero if you found me some." He slapped the secretary on the shoulder and smiled, trying very hard to wake up completely. As he stepped out onto the tarmac his eyes were violently assaulted by the bright Roman sunlight causing him to squint hard against the light and shield his eyes with his hand. All around him his security detail made sure no one could get to him... but to him it felt more like a cage.

Aeroporto di Roma, Roma, Provincia di Lazio

President Mussolini and her entourage had reached the airport very quickly due to it's close proximity to the capitol city. Allessandra knew the Kaiser's plane would soon be within sight and preparing to land, so she very quickly made some last minute adjustments to her hair, as always Latins were naturally fashion minded and strived to look they're best.

"Mein Kaiser," the secretary had appeared behind him with a small plastic bag full of the chocolate covered espresso beans the Kaiser had asked for. "Your snack, my lord." He make a crisp bow and smiled at the young man as he rose and handed the bag to him.

"Yes, thank you," Maximilian responded with a small chuckle. A number of men rushed toward them, taking up their bags and quickly rushed off with them to a long limousine, which was parked behind an identical one, the one in front with a door ajar, the President stepping out of it. The Kaiser suddenly became nervous...
