Generation 1: Chapter 10: Hail to the Chief.
Edward's off doing Mayor things, the kids are all at school. Finally, Katrina has the place to herself. What's she going to do with this newfound freedom?
The answer is, nothing. No freedom. Nina and Dina came by with their kids to see if their mother would babysit them. Katrina time is ruined.
You'd think after your father burnt to death for standing too close to a fire place that......you wouldn't do the same thing.
Katrina's such a highly respected musician that she was personally gifted this guitar from the greatest Rock and Roll legend in Simerica....Umm, Flippity Zop. Who's Flippity Zop you might ask? A guy who really earned his title of "Greatest Rock and Roll Legend" when you have a name that's so stupid that should've repelled any potential fans away from his albums. Regardless, Katrina owns his guitar now.
"Oh boy dad, Mom's so cool with the guitar." Rina said with admiration "Can you buy me a guitar too?"
"Not right now, Rina." Edward said before grabbing a lighter "I'm practicing my fire breathing."
And with that, Edward filled his mouth with alcohol before lighting it on fire in a giant fireball.
"Impressed?" Edward asked.
You know what time it is? That's right, Timeskip time! Welcome to the year 2050!
Oh dear, you know what that means if we just jumped four whole years?! It means Rina and Trina are now....15 years old!!!
So here's Rina, playing Katrina's guitar.....she's not going to be happy about this.
Trina's over here admiring her reflection in the walk in closet.
On that same note, that means Tina and Alina are 12 years old, nearing their teenage years. Here's Tina up first.
Then there's Alina keeping the couch warm.
"Happy 36th Birthday!" Katrina cheers as she throws confetti into the air.
"What's so happy about it? I'm 36 and I'm still not the President!" Edward moans.
"Wait, I'm 36?! I've been eligible to run for President for a whole year and didn't realize it!" Edward exclaimed.
"Hey you better get this whole President thing happening. I would like to be the First Lady BEFORE I go gray." Katrina nagged at her husband.
"I'll get right on it, dear!" Edward said right before running out of the room.
"You guys are lame." Rina said while rolling her eyes.
So Edward announced to the world that he was running for President!
At least the cameraman broadcasting this to the world was decent enough to show up to the event.
Meanwhile in Oasis Springs, 56 year old Nancy Landgraab is doing her best to stay in shape in her advancing age.
"Now that was a good run." Nancy boasted to herself as the door to her balcony slowly opened.
"Oh hey Nancy, your front door was locked so I climbed up to your balcony!" Edward exclaimed "Good thing you left [i]this[/i] door unlocked.
So after a change of clothes Nancy sat down and listened to Edward's plea.
"Alright so, I'm running for President and I need a running mate." Edward begins "And there's no one I would rather have by my side than the almighty Nancy Landgraab! So what do you say?"
"Edward, I am very honored that you thought of me." Nancy answers "However. You understand that 'Landgraab Incorporated' was handed to me back when it was nothing more than an amateur real estate agency by my father right?" Nancy goes on "Since then Landgraab Incorporated has held the monopoly of Real Estate, Power, Water and Supply chains in the country. Do you know what you have to do to secure a monopoly like that Edward?"
Edward has some trouble following the story "Uhh, what's this have to do with the Presidency?"
"You see, I have had to step on a few fingers, slit a few throats, metaphorically.....and literally." Nancy says bluntly. "I've killed people to get where I am today."
Edward's eyes widened before answering "Oh I get it. You don't want to be in charge of the country because you feel that someone who has committed heinous acts like that shouldn't be allowed to run the country!"
"Oh no, I don't care about any moral dilemmas! I'm just saying, to have this level of respect I'm not exactly secretive about it." Nancy continues "Just about everyone in the business world knows not to have a one on one conversation with me without having a bodyguard present. If your political rivals found out I was your Vice President, they'd destroy your political career right then and there."
"Well someone needs to run with me! I have to have a Vice President if I want to be the President!" Edward groaned.
"Perhaps....I can be your Running Mate" A mysterious voice said from the shadows....
It was Geoffrey Landgraab.
"Listen dear, I love you and all. But you're not built for Politics." Nancy explained. "You took your wife's last name for crying out loud! That's very progressive in this day and age, but you'd be ripped apart by Edward's Political rivals. You'd ruin his entire campaign."
That's when Malcolm Landgraab stepped into the room.
"Mom can I have ten thousand dollars?" Malcolm asked quite rudely.
"Curses Malcolm, you're 30 years old. Get yourself a job already!" Nancy snapped before looking at Edward "Or better yet.....Edward, I found your running mate!"
"So how did your first day of your Presidential Campaign go?" Katrina asked Edward as he entered the apartment.
"Umm. It was alright. Need to hit the gym first." Edward answered before running to his workout machine. The President needs to be ripped.
Meanwhile, Katrina wants at least one of her kids to follow in her footsteps as a musician.....It's not going to be Trina. Katrina sounded great, Trina sounded like a dying cat.
Instead Katrina had Trina help her make Edward's favorite dinner. He's going to need it after a tough day campaigning.
For a woman who doesn't cook much, Katrina's pretty darn good at this.
Trina however lost her bandaid in the bowl of sauce.
"That's one of the best looking plate of tacos I've ever seen." Katrina gushes over the food.
"It's certainly mouth watering." Trina adds.
"I just realized something." Katrina adds "Your dad doesn't get home for another four hours...."
So instead Katrina and Trina watched Justice League to pass the time.
"So how are your ice cold tacos?" Katrina asked lovingly.
"Not bad, but I think I found a bandaid in my food." Edward answered.
"It's not a bandaid, it's a flavor patch!" Trina says trying to come up with an excuse.
"Did you forget to wear your shirt on the campaign trail?" Rina asks her father.
"Oh I'm sure that'll help your Campaign!" Katrina adds.
Edward had to sit there for a few seconds before answering.
"As a matter of fact, I think it will help." Edward says with a snap of his finger.
