    Assad sat alone in the throne room. The throne was crystal, inlaid with multicolored diamonds, and his lion paced in front of him. SEAL Team Six entered through the windows and doors, and the dictator picked up his golden PP7 pistol.
    The SEALs were outfitted in tactical cybernetic gear, including vision enhancements, and carried modified Armalite Assault Rifles. They surrounded him and pointed. The officer pointed a spec op MK23 at him and stood in front of him.
    “Your guard has been neutralized. Your daughter will be sent to Turkey. Iran and Russia have withdrawn support, and Hezbolla is 90% eliminated, on the run back to Lebanon. And as for this cat...” One of the SEALs unloaded an Armalite clip. It yelped and puked blood, then curled up in a ball and stopped breathing. “You won’t be needing any more kitty litter. So that just leaves you. You gassed over 300 of your people with Sarin. What do you think we should do with you? The President says it is our call. Completely classified of course.”
    “I was only fighting terrorists. No different than your 9/11. They were anarchists.”
    “I don’t know too many anarchists that can’t say their ABCs and still need their diapers changed. They just wanted a good life. Equality and the pursuit of happiness. Lemme let you in on a little hint. You won’t be getting a trial. Not after the gas. But I’m an American—“and I don/t believe in cruel and unusual punishment. You can choose the way big boy.”
    Assad eyed his golden PP7. He pondered it for a minute, then put it in his mouth.’
