All was normal in the bustling city of Singapura, a city of 650
square kilometres of landspace, which was tucked in between the
Straits of Malacca and Indonesia.Part of the Dutch Archipelago in
the 1890’s , it served as a port of call for trading for British
seamen that enabled them to dock for repairs, refuel and trade with
the merchants.Its main source of harbour trade was Keppel Harbour,
named after Sir Henry Keppel, a retired serviceman that served the
British Government in Singapore. it was dubbed the Crown Jewel of
the South Eastern Asia that was governed by Queen Elizabeth.
December 12, Ninety-Forty Two, Eighteen Hundred Hours, Fort
Canning Hill,British Commanding Forces Headquarters
“So, what is surprising? We’ve always been warned about the
Japanese’s growing temptation to invade the South Eastern Asia”
“That cannot be allowed to happen.”We’ve already heavily in
debt.War in Europe is going bad for us, they have stopped sending
reinforcements against a possible Japanese invasion”
“Colonel, this just arrived” Sergeant McRish pipped up, amid the
clamour of the clandestine office that was intercepting Japanese
news transcripts.
“Thank you McRish, Dismissed”
“Yes, Sir”. Saluting, he left the office, his M1 Garand rifle
slung over his shoulders sloppily.A scope had been affixed hastily
to it.The growing financial constraints of defending the British
Empire had left the British War Treasury at nearly empty;half its
reserves had already been emptied for defence of London.Churchill,
the War Minister of the British Parliament and British Lord of the
Admiralty had asked President Roosevelt for a loan, but Congress
did not agree.
“Ridiculous shit i’ve gotten into now ”.the mysterious colonel
said. “Japan has fucking started a general mobilisation of thier
army”
“Arthur, you need to calm the fuck down. They may not attack ”
The man said.
Colonel Arthur Percival , Commander of the British Expeditionary
Forces in South East Asia nodded and waved, indicating to the
mysterious man to leave.
“Arthur… ” He was instantly cut off by a piercing glare and
hastily stopped and turned to the exit
The Man known as Arthur Percival withdrew drew his Webley
sidearm, cocked it and shot the man in the head as he began to
leave.
Horrified stares greeted Arthur as the man slumped to the floor
in a pool of blood.
“McRish, get rid of his body”Arthur barked
“Rght away Sir,” McRish started to haul the body away and as the
body was lifted onto his shoulders, a nametag fell out of the dead
man’s coat pocket
He picked it up and a silent scream emitted from his mouth as he
stared in shock, dumbfounded as the words and the picture of the
nametag gripped his eyes
The dead man was Stepeny Gates.
The images whizzed around in his brain,past memories awoken from
its slumber as he recollected what he had been through last year in
a private briefing by Lord Chamberlain, the then British Prime
Minister
Stepany Gates, associate of the Fereguccio family, which dealed
in mafia-related activites, and a very powerful influence on the
Italian Government.Deals were clinched underhand ; thousands of
light arms, mainly cheap replicas of the Maschinepistol 40 and
versions of the American Bazookas were shipped to Germany and
Russia, where German forces were preparing to take Russia and to
rearm Germany’s illegal army that broke the Versaillies Treaty of
1918.The Pact of Steel with Germany further strengthened the
contract that had been signed by Stepany and the German High
Command, based in Berlin.
In the Spring of 1942 Germans attacked the City of Stalingrad,
the secondmost important city of Russia, thereby breaking the peace
treaty that had been signed less than two years ago.Russian Forces,
with thier newly developed Kalashikov AK-47 with Soviet versions of
the 7.62mm round turned the tables and now pushed for a
counterattack.
McRish reeled from the shock and was only brought out of his
hyperventilating state when the barking orders of Percival made
itself known to his ears.
He hastened his pace, and brought the body out of the
office.

Spring gave way to summer, and the Axis Powers had conquered
eastern Russia in the European Theater of the War.The Japanese
poised to overrun the whole of south East Asia, which was under
heavy firebombing.Vietnam had already fallen and the Prince of
Wales and another warship were sunk off the coast of Kuantan.
Bullets pinged all around Sgt McRish.The Japanese had landed on
the beaches on south Thailand, having signed an agreement with the
Thai Government.The British airfields there were under imminent
threat of falling and thier ammo was running out
McRish rushed towards the tank depot far east of the airfield
and strapped himself into a Sherman Light Tank that had not been
destroyed by the Japanese’s firebombing and headed for the fences
where Japanese soldiers were firing indiscrimately at the
British
A Jap soldier nearby flung down his rifle and rushed to his ammo
dump, taking out a bazooka.
Flipping the switch from Safe to fire, he crouched in wait as
the Sherman blasted at the Japanese soldiers, forcing them
back.
The soldier cursed as the weapon jammed.Yanking out the misfired
projectile,he plugged in a fresh missile and fired.
The last thing McRish saw was a anti tank rocket heading in his
path.
