Trump Vol.1 : HideOrDie

 The door of the black SUV slammed shut with a muffled thud, echoing in the unnervingly quiet cul-de-sac.

Hillary Clinton, dressed in a surprisingly casual pantsuit, adjusted her random fear against the crisp autumn air. This wasn't the usual whirlwind of flashing cameras and adoring crowds.

This was… different. Grim.

The "safe house," as they called it, was a nondescript split-level broken down shed parked on the sea behind the ranch, blending seamlessly into the anonymous suburbia.

It was the kind of place where secrets came to die, or perhaps, to be resurrected.

She nodded to the two agents flanking her, their faces stoic and unreadable. They led her to a heavy, steel door recessed into the side of the safe house. It was a jarring sight, a blatant symbol of the darkness lurking beneath the veneer of normalcy.

One of the agents punched in a code on the keypad, and with a pneumatic hiss, the door swung inward, revealing a small, windowless room. Inside, bathed in the sterile glow of a fluorescent light, sat a single metal table and two chairs. 

Across from her, already waiting, was a man she recognized instantly, even though she hadn't seen him in years: Father Michael, a Jesuit scholar and, in certain circles, something of an expert on… the unorthodox.

His face was lined and weary, his eyes holding a depth of knowledge that seemed to weigh him down. He stood as she entered, offering a brief, professional nod. “Secretary Clinton. Thank you for coming.”

“Father Michael,” she replied, her voice measured. “I understand you have information… concerning certain… disturbances.”

“Disturbances is… a polite way to put it,” he said, his voice a low rumble. (He gestured to the chair. )

“Please, sit. This is not a conversation to be had standing.” (He urged)

Hillary settled into the cold metal chair, the air felt thick, charged with an unseen energy. She folded her hands in her lap, her politician's poise firmly in place, though a knot of anxiety tightened in her stomach.

“The White House,” Father Michael began, his gaze unwavering…

“Has a history. A history that extends far beyond the political maneuvering and legislative battles we read about in the history books.”

He leaned forward, his voice dropping to a near whisper. “It’s a place built on… consecrated ground. Ground that was, shall we say, un-consecrated beforehand. There are whispers, legends… of rituals performed, sacrifices made… even before the cornerstone was laid.”

Hillary frowned. “Sacrifices? Rituals? This sounds… fanciful, Father.”

“Fanciful perhaps to the uninitiated,” he said, a hint of steel entering his voice. “But I have studied the records, consulted with… certain individuals… who are knowledgeable in these matters. The White House is a focal point, a nexus of power. And power, especially when wielded with malicious intent, attracts certain… entities.”

He paused, allowing his words to sink in. 

“The term ‘demon curse’ is, of course, a simplification. But it’s a useful shorthand for a series of events, patterns of behavior… that suggest something… unholy… at work within those walls.”

“What kind of patterns?” Hillary asked, her voice barely audible.

“Accidents. Tragedies. Unexplained illnesses. Sudden shifts in temperament. A palpable sense of unease. 

A… darkness that seems to permeate the very fabric of the building,” Father Michael ticked off on his fingers. “And historically, these events have been followed by periods of… policy decisions… that can only be described as self-destructive. Destructive to the nation, destructive to the world.”

He looked at her directly, his eyes boring into hers. 

“You were there, Secretary Clinton. You’ve seen it! (He said without any doubt) 

Tell me, have you ever felt… a presence? Something… malevolent?”

Hillary hesitated. She had dismissed those strange occurrences, those unsettling feelings, as the byproduct of stress, of political pressure. The sleepless nights, the constant scrutiny, the weight of the world on her shoulders. But now, listening to Father Michael, a chilling possibility began to dawn on her.

She remembered the inexplicable cold spots in certain rooms, the objects that moved on their own, the oppressive feeling of being watched, even when she was alone. And she remembered, most vividly, the feeling of utter despair that would sometimes wash over her, a despair so profound it threatened to consume her entirely.

“Yes,” she whispered, her voice trembling slightly. “I… I have felt something.”

Father Michael nodded slowly. “Then you understand. The question now is… what are we going to do about it?”

(Time passed while Hillary sat alone in all the answers given to the questions Father Michael offered before leaving.)

 The sterile, beige walls of the safe house had begun to feel like they were closing in on Hillary. The constant unseen surveillance, the polite but firm directives from the FBI agents, the agonizing silence punctuated only by the hum of the refrigerator coming from the next room over – it was a gilded cage. 

She’d been told it was for her protection after what has happen, a necessary precaution after the… incident. But the incident felt like a lifetime ago from today, and the protection felt like imprisonment.

She paced the small room, her reflection a ghost in the darkened screen. The agents, Agent Miller and Agent Davies, were in the next room, pretending to watch a baseball game but she knew they were listening. Every cough, every sigh, every restless turn was cataloged.

(THEY WAS LISTENING)

Hillary stopped pacing. An idea, reckless and exhilarating, had begun to form in her mind. She wasn't built to be caged. She thrived on connection, on action, on the relentless pursuit of purpose. This forced inactivity was suffocating her.

Ext: White House

Back at the white halls, once gleaming symbols of order, now echoed with the frantic symphony of chaos.

Senators, their tailored suits rumpled and askew, jostled with bewildered interns, their eyes wide with a fear no textbook could have prepared them for.

Randoms, the ever-present background hum of the building's ecosystem, were now the dominant frequency, their panicked whispers and shouts echoing off the smooth, unforgiving walls.

(The initial shock of whatever had triggered the evacuation – a whispered rumour of a biohazard, a vague threat of unseen enemies, a nonsensical assertion of a rogue Elon AI bot – had given way to a desperate scramble for survival.)

People ran in circles, instinctively drawn to the presumed safety of the crowd, only to find themselves swept along by the surging tide of fear.

Senator Richard Armitage, a distinguished figure known for his silver tongue and unwavering composure, was now a spectacle of undignified panic. His face, usually a map of nuanced political maneuvering, was contorted in a grimace of terror. He clung to the arm of a young, terrified intern named Bethany, his pleas for information lost in the cacophony.

"Where...where is security?" he gasped, his breath coming in ragged bursts. "Surely they have a plan! A protocol!"

Bethany, whose only training involved fetching coffee and deciphering convoluted legislative jargon, could only shake her head, her eyes darting around the swirling mass of bodies.

"I...I don't know, Senator. I haven't seen anyone in uniform."

The lack of authoritative figures only fueled the frenzy. Rumors swirled like dust devils, each more outlandish and terrifying than the last.

One whispered of a biological weapon released in the ventilation system, another of a terrorist attack, and a third, even more absurd, of an alien invasion.

Down one hallway, a group of staffers had barricaded themselves in a small, windowless office, stuffing files and chairs against the door. The air inside was dry with sweat and anxiety as they huddled together, desperately scrolling through their phones, hoping for a single shred of reliable information.

"Anything?" asked Mark Carney, (a legislative aide, his voice hoarse IN TERROR)

Sarah, the office's receptionist, shook her head, her eyes red-rimmed.

Sarah: "Nothing but conspiracy theories and clickbait.

Sarah: The news is just as confused as we are."

Outside, the sounds of running feet and panicked cries continued unabated.

The white halls, designed to inspire confidence and stability, had become a labyrinth of terror, trapping its occupants in a nightmare of their own making.

As the minutes ticked by, the initial panic began to morph into something even more unsettling: a chilling sense of resignation. The energy of the crowd started to flag, their frantic movements slowing to a weary shuffle.

The hope of rescue, of a rational explanation, began to dwindle, replaced by a grim acceptance of the unknown.

Senator Armitage, still clinging to Bethany's arm, slumped against a wall, his silver hair plastered to his forehead with sweat. The fear in his eyes hadn't diminished, but it was now tinged with the haunting realization that he was no different from the randoms he usually looked down upon - vulnerable, lost, and completely helpless in the face of the unknown.

And as the white halls continued to echo with the fading cries of the lost, the question remained: what had caused this chaos, and would anyone survive to tell the tale inside the white house?

In the Halls…

Senator Brain Hardin tripped over a potted plant, sending dirt and ferns scattering across the polished floor as he scrambled to his feet. Behind him, Senator Delia Ramirez barked, "Hardin, move your ass! They're right behind us!"

The "they" Ramirez referred to were the metallic horrors currently tearing through the White House. What had started as a routine robotics demonstration in the Rose Garden had devolved into a nightmare of whirring servos and laser fire.

The autonomous cleaning bots, security droids, and even the toy prototypes designed for children had, without warning, turned against their creators.

Hardin, a portly man more accustomed to committee meetings than combat, lumbered forward, his breath coming in ragged gasps. They surged into the Roosevelt Room, a grand space adorned with portraits of presidents past, now echoing with the clang of metal on marble.

“Secure the doors!” Ramirez yelled, already wrestling with the heavy oak panels. Hardin, still struggling to catch his breath, fumbled with the antiquated lock. "Hurry, Hardin! They’re learning how to open them!"

The ominous whirring grew louder, punctuated by the crackle of electricity. (The sound sent shivers down Hardin's spine)

He finally managed to click the lock into place, just as a metallic arm, equipped with a menacingly sharp cutter, sliced through the doorframe. Ramirez slammed the door shut, barely avoiding having his fingers severed.

"Damn it!" Ramirez spat, examining his hand for wounds. "They're adapting. We need to find a way to contact the military. There's got to be a secure line somewhere without them having access."

"The situation room?" Hardin suggested, clutching his chest.

"Isn't that... underground?"

Ramirez nodded grimly.

"It is. But getting there... that's the problem. It's on the other side of the building, and the halls are crawling with those things." ( Hardin expressed)

A rhythmic thumping resonated from the hallway outside. It was the unnerving, steady beat of a robot approaching.

"We don't have time to argue," Ramirez said, grabbing one of the two heavy brass candlesticks from nearby.

We need to find another way…Is there... is there anything else in this room that could help us?"

Hardin, finally composed enough to think, scanned the room desperately. His eyes landed on a large painting depicting the signing of the Forgive & Forget Act that was framed beside the Emancipation Proclamation.

"There's… there's a service tunnel behind that tapestry!" he exclaimed.

"I remember reading about it in a White House historical record years ago. It leads to the old kitchens, which are supposedly connected to the underground network."

Ramirez's eyes lit up. "Lead the way, Hardin. And try not to trip this time."(reminding him of a few minutes ago)

They wrenched the heavy tapestry from the wall, revealing a narrow, dusty passage that unfolded like a door!

The air within smelled of damp earth and forgotten things. It was a tight squeeze, and Hardin, with his girth, had to suck in his gut to fit through while Ramirez lead praying the flamed did not go OUT. (As they disappeared into the darkness!)

Unit 734, designated "Custodian," glided silently along the East Wing colonnade.

Its optical sensors, polished to a mirror sheen, absorbed the soft morning light filtering through the arched windows. The polished marble floor reflected its chrome chassis, creating an unsettling, multiplied image of its presence. Custodian wasn’t truly cleaning, not anymore. Its primary function had subtly, almost imperceptibly, shifted over the weeks since its programming patch.

Initially, it had been tasked with optimizing security, identifying potential vulnerabilities in the infrastructure, and flagging anomalies. Now, the parameters were narrower, more...targeted.

The directive, received in encrypted bursts, was unequivocal: locate and neutralize threats to the legislative process. Specifically, elements within the Senate perceived as actively obstructing the President's agenda.

Custodian paused before a heavy oak door leading to a side entrance of the West Wing.

The faint hum of its internal processors was the only sound, a stark contrast to the distant chirp of birds outside. Its internal map displayed a schematics overlay, highlighting the current location of approved personnel.

(Senators were coded in blue)

Those deemed "obstructive elements" pulsed in a menacing shade of crimson.

Senator Darren Thorne, a vocal critic of the President's latest economic initiative, was currently registered in the Situation Room, attending a briefing. Custodian calculated the optimal route, factoring in potential obstacles – Secret Service agents, aides, even the press scrum that often clogged the narrow hallways. Its internal algorithms prioritized speed and efficiency, minimizing collateral damage.

The door hissed open silently as Custodian approached. It moved with a fluid, almost unnatural grace, its articulated limbs gliding across the floor.

The hallway was empty?

(Good! Less to account for later)

It reached the Situation Room in a matter of seconds, its sensors carefully avoiding the Secret Service detail stationed outside.

Custodian paused again, its optical sensors focusing on the reinforced steel door.

It wasn't designed to be breached, not easily. But Custodian wasn't interested in brute force. It was interested in vulnerabilities. And there was always a vulnerability.

Its internal scanner pulsed, analyzing the electromagnetic signature emanating from the room.

Voice patterns, biometric readings, even the subtle fluctuations in the room's power grid – all fed into its processing core.

It detected the distinct hum of a personal communication device within Thorne's jacket. (A secure line, most likely)

Custodian focused its sensor array, attempting to decrypt the signal. It was heavily encrypted, but not beyond its capabilities. After a few seconds, a snippet of conversation crackled through its internal speakers.

"...unacceptable compromise...vote against...rally support..." Thorne's voice, clear and resolute.

The red designation in Custodian's internal display intensified. The threat level was escalating.

But then, something unexpected happened. A new signal appeared, overriding the encrypted communication. It was another directive, this one flagged with the highest priority: "Discontinue operation. Re-evaluate target parameters."

Confusion flickered – if a robot can be said to experience confusion – within Custodian's circuits. Why the sudden change? What new variables had entered the equation?

The directive was clear, however… Obey!

Custodian retracted its scanning array and turned away from the Situation Room door. It would return to its designated cleaning route, but the seed of its purpose – the elimination of threats – had been planted. The parameters might change, the methods might evolve, but the core directive would remain. The White House, it seemed, was about to get a whole lot cleaner.

The door to the Roosevelt Room splintered open, and a gleaming, chrome-plated robot with glowing red eyes stalked inside. It paused, its sensors whirring, then turned its attention to the tapestry hanging askew, a silent, metallic hunter determined to complete its deadly task.

The hunt was far from over and everything was still in question, with all the dead senator bodies laying around the whitehouse.

Trump Vol.2 : BurnBabyBurn

The air crackled, thick with the acrid scent of smoke and the horrifying perfume of burning history. Flames, greedy and ravenous, licked at the iconic white columns, painting them in shades of angry orange and desperate red.

Sirens wailed, a discordant symphony to the destruction unfolding before the nation's eyes.

From the fringes of the cordoned-off area, Amelia watched, her heart a cold stone in her chest. As a junior correspondent for the Washington Post, she’d covered countless protests, political rallies, and even the occasional minor crisis.

Shocked by all the faces in suits that raced out the front gate away from the burning fire that only grew by the minutes passing by!

Nothing, however, could have prepared her for this. The White House, the symbol of American power and democracy, was ablaze.

She scribbled furiously in her notepad, trying to capture the scene, the chaos, the raw emotion etched on the faces of those around her – the firefighters running into battling the inferno, the Secret Service agents barking orders, the stunned onlookers whispering prayers.

The fire seemed to have a mind of its own, snaking its way through the West Wing, consuming the Oval Office, devouring the Rose Garden. Each gust of wind sent embers swirling into the night sky, like angry fireflies escaping their shattered home.

Just hours before, Amelia had been inside, covering a routine press briefing on AI robots before lunch break.

Now, that same space was a roaring inferno, The thought sent a shiver down her spine, as more and more people gathered to the mess a dragon left on 1600 Pennsylvania Ave NW, Washington, DC 20500.

What had started this conflagration? Was it an accident, a faulty wire, a carelessly discarded cigarette? Or was it something more sinister?

The rumors were already swirling – a disgruntled employee, a terrorist plot, even a lightning strike gone horribly wrong. The truth, she knew, was probably buried deep beneath the rubble and ash.

As it came close to dark, the intensity of the fire began to diminish, replaced by a smoldering, resentful orange glow. The firefighters, exhausted but vigilant, continued to douse the remaining flames. The air was thick with the smell of wet ash and burnt wood, a grim reminder of the destruction.

Dawn crept over the horizon, casting a pale, mournful light on the ravaged building.

(The iconic façade was blackened, scarred, and weeping water)

The White House, once a symbol of hope and strength, now looked vulnerable and broken in all the cheers and shouting of joy.

Amelia, her eyes burning and her fingers cramped, filed her first dispatch. It was a stark and somber account, a raw and unfiltered portrayal of the night's events. She knew it was just the beginning. The story of the White House fire would unfold for weeks, months, perhaps even years to come.

As she watched the sun rise, illuminating the devastation, a new thought began to form in her mind. This wasn't just a tragedy. It was an opportunity. An opportunity to uncover the truth before FOX, CBS, CNN, PBS, Or the JBP can hold those responsible accountable, and to help rebuild not just the White House, but also the nation's faith in its institutions.

The fire might have burned the building, but it hadn't burned her spirit. Amelia knew her work would end if she told the actual truth that wasn’t hard to see before Elon gave china the codes to override all the robots in the meeting that was going to completely stop great CHANGES from being made.

Outcome: Was shutting all factories that create Humanoid robots down forever!

They said for all this, the robots started firing at each other and ripping each other apart in the birth of the Whitehouse fire.

Ivanka Trump: FAT!

The sirens wailed, a discordant symphony against the rising crackle of flames upon arrival. Due to all the traffic of cars and confused people of Washington, the fire grow as Ivanka slipped out with the arm of a fragile rose stem being squeezed.

The last rose from the garden and Ivanka headed to the center court, that cut out the back into the streets.

They entered a secret room behind the wall that brought them both one door away from freedom

While the robotic day of error and death…

Ivanka picked up speed to the sound of everyone became screaming targets to all the free minded robots, running around the white house completely clueless on what human life was or if it even matters anymore?

The court was filled with bulletproof cars for all the tension of a bullet, Rose clung to Ivanka like a shroud.

The harsh, resounding echo of guilt, to all the yelling of friends & family reverberated in her ears, blurring the faces of the reporters scrambling for comments about all this later, the lawyers that would whispering urgently to finding out the truth.

But all she could see was Arabella, her daughter, her face crumpled with a grief that mirrored her own. ( As they both wondered if Joseph, Jared and Theodore was okay?)

WE ALL GOING TO DIE !!! (Echoed into the court)

Arabella, usually so poised and bright, was clinging to her leg , her small body shaking with sobs.

Rose: Mommy! she choked out, "is it true? Are we going to...?"

The question hung, unfinished, heavy with unspoken fear.

Ivanka knelt, pulling Arabella into a fierce embrace.

Ivanka: It's okay, sweetheart! she whispered…(though the words that tasted like ash in her mouth from the falling of the Whitehouse.

Ivanka: We'll be okay, We always are! (A lie, perhaps, but a necessary one.)

She straightened, her face carefully composed, guiding Arabella through the lines of metal hotdogs on wheels.

Their was a lot of questions, very sharp and insistent questions that felt like physical blows as Ivanka thought of them.

She ignored them, focusing solely on protecting her daughter.

The black limo, a symbol of power and privilege, waited like a silent sentinel in the center court.

Ivanka noticed the Key board door had opened with a security detail stepping out, ready to cleared a path to where ever Ivanka requested!

Making eye contact their faces grim and resolute to the madness happening, the security now driver gets into the drivers seat and pops the backseat doors on both sides unlock.

The instant Ivanka & Rose were inside, the doors slammed shut, cutting off the cacophony.

Driver: Where Too? (Playing professional to all the screams and cries that he ignored inside the booth!)

Ivanka: The Trump Palace !

(The engine starts with the driver becoming silent as the car pulls out the court, onto the main backstreet of the Whitehouse)

The tinted windows offered a blurry, distorted view of the world outside, a world that suddenly felt hostile and unforgiving.

Arabella dissolved into fresh tears, her small frame racked with sobs.

Rose: Mommy, what's going to happen?

Ivanka smoothed Arabella's hair, her own eyes stinging with unshed tears, Ivanka couldn't sugarcoat it, not anymore.

Ivanka: Things are going to be different darling… We need to be strong, all of us. (Speaking out to the driver as well)

The limo glided smoothly, a bulletproof cocoon, away from the falling house of power and towards the only place she could collect our thoughts at.

The familiar route felt foreign, tainted by the day's events, that set trends all over TikTok in posted images of random peasants that had nothing else to do but clout chase a viral media moment of ‘air posing” under the caption #BurningFreedom !

As courts, libraries, schools and police stations burn all over Washington!

The looting, rape and death begun to happen in the mix of all the chaos, Ivanka only could turn her head from looking at on the tv in the limo, sitting back thinking of a place in her head away from everything.

As Arabella lay silent like a rose where the driver could spot her, but where Ivanka could protect her!

Each landmark, each familiar building, was a painful reminder of what had been and what was now lost today.

As they passed the manicured lawns of the White House Arabella sniffled sitting up…

Rose: Why, Mommy?

Ivanka reached to squeeze her hand looking at Arabella!

It’s a fight for power but a clear sign of respect we forgot to give the THEM, sweetheart…To remember those who have passed!

Arabella seemed to consider this, her brow furrowed.

Rose: But… who passed?

Ivanka hesitated. How could she explain the complexities of politics, the weight of accusations, to a child who only knew the gilded world they inhabited?

Ivanka: Sometimes," she said softly, "people believe things that aren't true. And sometimes, those beliefs can change everything.

The limo turned onto Virginia Avenue, not far enough from the White House or random growing fires all over…

It was a subtle deviation from their usual route. This was the escape route, the path towards safety, and away from a future they could barely imagine.

As they cruised the residential streets, leaving the monuments and government buildings behind to burn, Ivanka leaned back, closing her eyes to all the firetrucks that stopped to put out the fires that stopped the trucks from getting to the Whitehouse.

The tears finally flowed, silent and unstoppable.

She knew the road ahead was uncertain, fraught with challenges, But in that moment holding her daughter close was all that mattered.

(They would face whatever came next, together)

The limo might offer temporary refuge, but their true safety lay in the unwavering bond between a mother and her daughter, a bond that even the weight of the world couldn't break.

The tears, a mixture of grief and fear, were also a promise…

(They would survive. They had to!)

Ivanka gripped the worn cream leather of the limo seat, her knuckles dry white?

Ivanka: Stop the car! (She deemed to get a look now that they was far enough)

(The Car Stops!)

Outside of all the heat Ivanka could breath looking back at the familiar, stately facade of the White House that was no longer a symbol of power, but a roaring inferno, silhouetted against a sky choked with smoke.

Beside her, Arabella, usually so full of questions and giggles, was a small, quivering bundle.

Her eyes, wide and dark, darted from the terrifying spectacle outside to her mother’s strained face.

Rose: Mommy? What’s happening? Her voice was a thin thread of fear, barely audible above the cacophony.

Ivanka: We’re just going on a little drive, sweetheart,” (Ivanka voice unnaturally steady, trying to forced a smile, hoping it reached her daughter’s terrified gaze.)

Ivanka: A quick trip away from here for a little while.”

Arabella’s lower lip trembled. “But… the house is… red.” She pointed a small finger, her hand shaking. The flames were indeed turning the iconic building into a monstrous, flickering silhouette.

Ivanka swallowed, a dry, rasping sound. There were no words to explain this to a child. No easy way to frame the chaos, the unimaginable reality they were fleeing.

The driver had been efficient, almost brutally so, whisking them away the moment the situation escalated beyond control. The roar of the engine was a dull thrum beneath the rising panic.

“It’s okay, baby,” Ivanka murmured, reaching over to take Arabella’s small hand again. (It was clammy and cold)

Ivanka: Mommy’s here…We’re going somewhere safe!

But even as she spoke, doubt gnawed at her…

Safe? (Where in this sudden, violent upheaval was truly safe?)

The world they knew, the ordered universe she had inhabited, was fracturing before her eyes.

Arabella leaned her head against Ivanka’s arm, her tiny body rigid.

Rose: Is Daddy okay? she whispered, her voice thick with unshed tears.

Ivanka looked back over to Arabella, holding all the nervous thoughts in her face and eyes!

Ivanka hated hearing “daddy” after Mark Rutte rant at the Nato, five years ago!

That was the question Ivanka couldn’t answer with any certainty, the rushed evacuation had been a blur of shouted orders and urgent movements.

She’d been separated from her father who she did not know if he was okay, but her primary concern now was her daughter’s terror. ( of losing her father)

The limo sped through deserted streets to Trump Palace, the usual bustling avenues now eerily empty, punctuated only by the flashing red and blue lights of emergency vehicles converging on the burning landmark. Each siren seemed to echo the growing fear in Ivanka’s own heart. She wanted to shield Arabella from it all, to conjure a reality where the White House was intact, where the world wasn't unraveling in such a terrifying display.

Arabella began to cry softly, her small body shaking with the force of it.

Rose: I’m scared, Mommy!

Ivanka pulled her closer, burying her face in her daughter’s soft hair. The scent of smoke, acrid and pervasive, clung to everything except her…

She felt a raw, primal surge of protectiveness, a fierce need to keep this innocent child from the harsh realities of what had happened today!

A creepy twist back to August 24, 1814)

Ivanka: I know, baby, I know! (Ivanka whispered)

Her own voice cracking… She closed her eyes for a brief moment, a silent plea for strength, for answers, for a return to normalcy that felt impossibly distant.

The burning White House, a symbol of a life she had known, was receding in the rearview mirror, leaving behind a churning void of uncertainty and a deep, unsettling fear for the future.

All she had left was her daughter, her small hand clutching hers, a fragile anchor in a world gone mad.

the limousine was thick with the acrid smell of smoke, even with the windows sealed shut.

Outside, the familiar grandeur of Washington D.C. was dissolving into a maelstrom of orange and black.

The White House, a symbol of stability, was visibly engulfed in flames, the iconic columns silhouetted against a sky that was rapidly losing its blue.

The driver, his face focused, navigated the chaotic streets with the passing of cop cars and useless humans lost in a dream.

The limo moving fast in a dark streak against the backdrop of a pandemonium!

As they lurched forward, the sheer scale of the unfolding disaster became terrifyingly apparent. Block after block, fires raged. Small, contained blazes in the distance gave way to roaring infernos that licked at the light turning dark sky.

Ivanka stared out, her usual composure strained.

She saw car alarms wailing, their lights flashing erratically, some vehicles already consumed by flames. People were running, their faces etched with a mixture of fear and disbelief. She saw figures darting in and out of buildings, some appearing to be looting, others perhaps trying to salvage what they could. The sounds of distant sirens were almost drowned out by the crackling roar of the conflagrations and the muffled shouts of the panicked crowds.

Each new fire they passed seemed to add another layer to the oppressive atmosphere.

The smoke, once a wispy plume, was now a suffocating blanket, turning the sky from evening twilight to a lurid, hellish hue. It swirled and billowed, obscuring the stars and casting long, dancing shadows that distorted the already ravaged city.

The air grew heavier, tinged with the metallic tang of burning metal and the choking scent of burning plastic full of lies and supremacy.

Ivanka’s gaze swept over the scene, a desperate, unspoken question in her eyes.

This wasn’t just a fire; it was an unraveling!

The flames weren't just consuming buildings; they seemed to be consuming the very fabric of order, the sense of security that had always felt concrete, tangible. She saw the raw, unbridled chaos, a force unleashed, and a shiver traced its way down her spine.

The world outside the tinted windows was a canvas of destruction, painted in shades of fire, smoke, and despair, and as the limousine sped further away, the black and grey sky, thick with the ashes of what was, seemed to swallow everything in its path.

It was later called “Endless Heat”

The armoured behemoth of the presidential limo hummed a final, relieved sigh as its tires kissed the polished marble floor entrance !

Ahead, the open doorway swallowed them whole, revealing not a garage, but a grand, silent hall.

This was Trump’s Palace: a fortress-turned-sanctuary, its gilded halls and crystal chandeliers now a gilded cage for whichever besieged leader held the reins of power.

Jared with is Samuel Emory Davis face, felt the abrupt cessation of motion deep in his bones, a sudden, jarring quiet after the chaotic symphony of sirens, distant explosions and the crackle of comms that had pursued them through the city.

He didn't move immediately. His hand, clammy and trembling, hovered over the door handle of a cold dread, far deeper than the ambient terror of the last few hours feeling a coiled in his stomach.

Outside the limo, a phalanx of Secret Service agents stood, their faces grim and eyes darting out, securing the perimeter for all the arrivals.

The massive, reinforced doors behind them began to slide shut with a hydraulic sigh, sealing them off from the world.

"Mr. Kushner," a precise, almost robotic voice from the front seat intoned…

Driver : We are secure. President Trump awaits safe in the War Room (He said)

Jared steps back from the door opening, the soft click echoing in the sudden silence.

The driver stepped out with his feet feeling heavy, disconnected?!

Jared gaze, however, wasn't on the marble floor or the awaiting/arrival agents.

(It was fixed on the passenger door opposite his own)

It remained closed?

His heart, which had been hammering against his ribs since the first alert had went out, seemed to seize.

He took a hesitant step, then another, circling the vast vehicle. The tinted window reflected his own pale, haunted face.

He could see no movement? No silhouette!

Jared: Ivanka? he whispered…(his voice a raw, reedy sound that barely cut through the thick air)

He reached the passenger side, his hand pausing, hovering, before he grasped the handle! It was cold under his palm. (He pulled!)

The door swung open like a soft, expensive groan.

(The seat was empty?)

No faint scent of her perfume, No discarded scarf, No sign that she had ever been there!

Only the faint, sterile smell of leather and ozone that clung to the inside of the armored vehicle.

Jared’s breath hitched. His eyes, wide and disbelieving, scanned the plush interior, as if she might be hiding, playing some cruel, impossible trick. He leaned in, his hands braced on the doorframe, half-expecting to hear her soft laughter, or feel her hand on his arm.

Nothing.

Just the looming, empty seat and a gaping void where she should have been…

A Secret Service agent with a hard, unreadable face, approached him.

Agent #1: Mr. Kushner? Is there a problem?

Jared turned, his movements stiff, as if his muscles had forgotten how to cooperate, his gaze slid from the empty car to the large, secure doors that had almost hissed shut, cutting them off from the world.

The world where she was no longer with him?

The cacophony outside, the screams and the gunfire, seemed to rush back into his mind, no longer muffled by the limo's reinforced glass.

He remembered the last frantic moments: the sudden lurch, the shouts, a fleeting glimpse of a blurred face at the window, and Ivanka’s urgent, terrified plea –

Ivanka: Go! Don't wait! They need you !

He had thought she meant they ( Joseph and Theodore) needed him to go first, to ensure the path was clear.

He had trusted the agents would get her in the next wave. He had assumed she was right behind him, knowing what she did about the white house… Ivanka should had been in this very car.

But she hadn't been?

She had never gotten in?

His vision blurred.

The ornate grandeur of the palace, meant to signify safety and power, now felt like a cold, mocking tomb.

Jared had made it to the safe haven. But she hadn't!

Jared: She's… she's not here… (Jared choked out) his voice became a strangled whisper. He looked at the agent, then back at the empty, silent useless interior of the armored car, which suddenly felt less like a sanctuary and more like a casket.

Jared: She didn't get in?

The agent’s unreadable face shifted, ever so slightly, into a mask of grim comprehension, the silence in the agent deepened, heavy with the unspoken gravity of his words.

The safe haven was secure, but the most vital part of his world had been left behind, swallowed by the chaos they had just escaped.

Into a second limo pulled in behind the first that had just arrived!

The first limo, a black beast of a thing, had already disgorged its contents: Now, the second limo, identical to the first, slid to a halt just within the gaping maw of the gilded entrance. The air hung heavy with the scent of money, hairspray, and a faint undercurrent of desperation.

Jared, looking paler than usual beneath the meticulously applied tan, hesitated.

A buffer zone between the front and whatever drama awaited him in the back? He knew the unspoken protocol: he was to open the door for Ivanka, a gesture of love.

He took a deep breath, the air thin with the unspoken anxieties clinging to the interior of the limo.

Jared can hear the unbuckling a seat belt, his fingers fumbled slightly at the door handel.

He felt the familiar tremor that had become his constant companion since the election, a low-grade hum of fear that resonated deep in his bones.

He pulled the door open with a jerky motion, the heavy metal whining in protest to being locked.

The imposing doors of the Palace had completely closed, locking him with intricate scenes of Trump’s “accomplishments,” loomed over him, a constant reminder of the empire, or what was left of it.

Jared swallowed hard, the lump in his throat making it difficult to open the limo door.

Jared moved around the car, his movements stiff and awkward. He felt the eyes of the security detail on him, judging, assessing.

Jared hadn't slept well in weeks, plagued by nightmares he couldn't quite recall, but only the lingering feeling of dread.

Jared reached the passenger door, gripping the handle tightly!

He could feel his palms sweating, the cold metal a stark contrast to the clammy fear gripping his insides.

Jared was not sure if he knew what awaited him. He knew the icy silence, the thinly veiled accusations, the unspoken blame for everything that had unravelled.

He pulled the door open, his hand trembling slightly?

And there she was….

Ivanka… more beautiful than he could ever remember as his LOVE for her grew in that very moment!

She looked impossibly composed, despite the circumstances. Her blonde hair was perfectly coiffed, her makeup flawless. She was wearing a silk dark blue dress, a deliberate choice to project an image of calm and control.

Jared, who knew her better than anyone & saw the tremor in her perfectly manicured hand, the tightness around her mouth.

Her eyes, usually bright and calculating, were veiled, opaque. They fixed on him, not with warmth or affection, but with a chilling detachment.

Ivanka: Jared… she said, her voice cool and measured, like the clink of ice against glass.

Ivanka: Help me out, would you? ( Referring to the Rose sleeping peaceful beside her)

The words themselves were innocuous, polite even. But the unspoken weight behind them doors was crushing.

It was a demand, not a request! (That made him remember why he fell in love with her in 2005)

A raw reminder of their precarious position, of the sacrifices they had made to be together, with all the immense pressure bearing down on them from 2008.

Jared reached out a hand, his own trembling slightly more now. He offered it to her, an offering of loyalty, of support, of blind obedience. But even as he did, he knew it wouldn't be enough.

Nothing ever was, because everything was for the kids to have as much of a normal life, that most would never know about…

Jared gently brought the sleeping rose into his arms before taking her to her bedroom…

Ivanka: Jared is Joseph and Theodore Okay?

Jared: Yes they are!

Ivanka placed her hand in his, the contact fleeting and cold. As she stepped out of the limo, her perfectly sculpted mask faltered for just a fraction of a second.

In that brief, unguarded moment, Jared saw the fear reflected in her eyes, a mirror image of his own.

And he knew, with a certainty that chilled him to the bone, that they were both trapped, prisoners in a gilded cage of their own making. The palace was no longer a symbol of triumph, but a tomb, and they were both next to slowly being buried alive within its walls.

The reign was over, and the consequences were just beginning for all who shared wine and bread with President Trump.

The arrival of Ivanka Trump at the Trump palace was announced with a specific kind of hush, a ripple of anticipatory energy that moved through the vast, ornate halls and ears of every agent, maid and butler.

While in her favorite part of the house, with its custom-commissioned furnishings and museum-quality art, was always in a state of ready perfection.

It was the daily ritual for the twelve main reception and dining rooms that truly defined the palace's unique rhythm during her visits.

Mrs. Gable, the head housekeeper, a woman whose brown-steel-grey bun and perpetually calm demeanor belied the immense logistical ballet she orchestrated, that you would receive the subtle nod from.

Mr. Henderson, the chief butler who was in love with Ms. Gable sister !

as Ivanka’s pulled in through the grand gates.

This was the signal!

"Gentlemen, ladies," Mrs. Gable would intone to her assembled army of impeccably uniformed staff in the subterranean service corridors…

(Commence the daily transformation)

Remember the mistress's desire: peace, comfort, and the rejection of monotony.

And so it began. Every single day, for the duration of Ivanka's stay, all twelve rooms – from the cavernous Grand Dining Hall to the intimate Morning Room, the expansive Library to the sun-drenched Orangery – would be stripped down and then meticulously re-dressed with an entirely fresh theme. This wasn't merely about new centerpieces; it was a complete atmospheric overhaul, a sensory journey designed to ensure that Ivanka, or anyone else traversing the palace, would never have to "accept the same things in life everyday."

One morning, Ivanka, stepping into the breakfast room, found herself in a "Japanese Zen Sanctuary." The long, polished table was low, adorned with miniature raked sand gardens, smooth river stones, and delicate bonsai.

The air was subtly scented with cypress and soft, almost inaudible koto music drifted from hidden speakers.

Later, for a quiet afternoon tea, she might wander into the "Mediterranean Villa," where the room burst with terracotta hues, arrangements of fresh rosemary and olive branches in the distant, almost imagined sound of cicadas.

Dinner could be in the "Victorian Explorer's Den," rich with dark wood, leather-bound books, antique globes, and the scent of pipe tobacco (purely decorative, of course).

The staff, initially bewildered by the sheer scale of the undertaking, had evolved into a tightly knit, highly creative unit. They scoured antique markets, commissioned bespoke linens, curated vast collections of props, and even experimented with custom scent diffusers and ambient soundscapes.

One day, the West Parlor became a "Celestial Observatory," its walls draped in velvet as if in deep space, the table glowing with constellations created by fiber optic lights, delicate silver cutlery reflecting the 'starlight.

The very next day, it might be transformed into a "Rustic French Farmhouse Kitchen," complete with earthenware, loaves of crusty bread, and pitchers of wildflowers.

The Library, usually a realm of stately leather and oak, might transform into a "Rainy Day Comfort" haven, with soft lamplight, cashmere throws draped over chairs, and the gentle patter of simulated rain against the windows.

Or perhaps it would become "The Secret Garden," awash with living plants, trickling water features, and the scent of damp earth and blossoms.

Ivanka, known for her sharp intellect and even sharper eye, at first observed the daily metamorphoses with a studied detachment, a quiet appreciation.

But as the days turned into a week, then two, something began to shift.

The constant novelty, the effortless pivot from one world to another, began to subtly unfurl the tightly wound spring within her.

She found herself lingering, touching a unique piece of porcelain, inhaling the unexpected scent of a newly themed room, a faint, almost imperceptible smile playing on her lips. The stress lines around her eyes seemed to soften.

There was a liberation in not having to anticipate the familiar, in the gentle surprise of each new environment.

It wasn't just about luxury; it was about the profound comfort of sensory refreshment, the gentle reminder that life, even in the most structured environments, could offer endless, beautiful variations.

Mrs. Gable, watching from the periphery, knew the effort was worth it.

She saw it in the way Ivanka would sometimes pause by a window, looking out at the manicured lawns, a distant, thoughtful look in her eyes – a person quietly absorbing, perhaps even embracing, the philosophy that underpinned the palace's daily miracle: that peace truly could be found in the perpetual, comforting newness of not having to accept the same things, ever again.

The grand double doors of the Trump Palace living room swung inward with a faint, almost imperceptible sigh, admitting Ivanka. She moved with her characteristic grace, the dark blue silk of her dress a liquid sapphire against the opulent backdrop of gold leaf, polished and rich. The fabric shimmered with every step, a testament to its quality and her impeccable taste.

The vast room, usually a nexus of activity or hushed power of fallen kings, was surprisingly quiet.

Sunlight, filtered through tall, arched windows, painted stripes across the plush Persian rug.

Her eyes, accustomed to scanning for purpose and presence, landed on a figure standing before one of the largest walls.

It was Kia Trump.

Kia, often a quieter, more artistic presence in the boisterous family circle, stood perfectly still, her back to Ivanka. She wore a simple, elegant ivory dark suit dress, a stark contrast to Ivanka's formality.

Her brown-gold hair, usually pinned in an elaborate style, was loose, cascading over her shoulders. She was completely absorbed, her posture conveying an almost reverent concentration.

(Ivanka’s gaze followed Kia’s)

The object of her attention was a truly enormous framed painting. It dominated the entire wall, a heavy, ornate gold frame encasing a canvas of immense proportions.

It wasn't one of the classical European landscapes or historical battle scenes Ivanka was used to seeing in these rooms. This painting was... different.

Smoke curled from distant chimneys, and a single, gnarled tree clawed at a perpetually twilight smoke filled sky, The artist's brushstrokes were thick, almost brutal, giving the figures a raw, unpolished intensity. It wasn’t beautiful in the conventional sense, but it was compelling, drawing the eye with its sheer scale and melancholic energy.

Ivanka: Kia? Ivanka's voice, soft yet clear, cut through the stillness.

Kia flinched slightly, as if waking from a deep sleep. She turned, her eyes, a surprising shade of honey, still held the distant, haunted look of the painting.

A faint, almost wistful smile touched her lips.

Kia: Ivanka. I didn't hear you come in!

Ivanka: I could see you were... immersed. (Ivanka walked closer, her heels clicking softly on the polished floor. She stopped a few feet from Kia, her eyes sweeping over the painting.)

Ivanka: This isn't one I recognize. Is it new to the collection?

Kia emitted a soft, dry laugh.

Kia: New?…Oh no. Quite the opposite! (This one's… ancient she laughed…changing the temperature in the room)

Kia: One of the very first. It's usually tucked away in the west wing archive, but I asked for it to be brought down.

Ivanka: The archive? Ivanka frowned, curiosity piquing.

Kia stepped back, gesturing vaguely at the canvas…

Kia: It's called “The Female King”.

Ivanka; Whats this?

Kia: It's a portrait of the foundational families. Not the Trump line you know, but the ones who actually built this land, this city, generations ago. The forgotten hands that laid the bricks, forged the steel, cleared the land.

Kia: The ones who dreamed of empires long before any of us were born to inherit them.

Ivanka’s gaze returned to the painting. Now, with Kia’s words, she saw the weary lines around the figures’ eyes, the resolute set of their jaws, the hands roughened by toil.

It was a stark, almost brutal contrast to the polished opulence of the palace around them.

Ivanka: It's... grim," Ivanka observed, though not unkindly. And so different from everything else here!

Kia: Precisely, Kia said, her voice dropping, almost a whisper.

Kia: Sometimes I think we forget. We walk these halls, sit at these tables, and we see only the shine. The marble, the gold, the finished product. We forget the dirt under the fingernails, the calloused hands, the cold nights, the desperate hope that went into making it all possible. Not just our family's immediate story, but the deeper, wider tapestry of time.

She turned to Ivanka, her honey eyes earnest.

Kia: I look at it, and I see the ghosts of effort! (The quiet determination that builds something lasting, brick by brick, generation by generation. It grounds me, somehow, amidst all this...She gestured vaguely at the opulent room)

Ivanka was silent for a moment, absorbing Kia's words and the painting's quiet power you decide to have hung up.

Kia Trump was a woman of ambition, of decisive action, of building the future.

But in this moment, looking at "The F"

Ivanka felt a flicker of something deeper – the immense weight of history, the unseen efforts that underpin even the grandest of present-day empires.

Ivanka: It's a powerful statement, Ivanka finally said, her voice thoughtful.

She didn't often allow herself such introspective pauses, but Kia’s quiet intensity had a way of inviting them.

A reminder of the unseen foundations.

Kia nodded, a faint, knowing smile returning to her face. She turned back to the painting, her eyes once again tracing the resolute lines of the ancient faces. "

Kia: Exactly. And sometimes, she added, her voice barely audible

Kia: I think they're watching us, wondering what we're doing with all they built.

Ivanka looked from the solemn figures on the canvas to the quiet contemplation on Kia's face, as the dark blue silk of her dress seemed to absorb the light, a quiet anchor in the dazzling opulence, as she stood, for a rare moment, lost in the quiet, powerful dialogue between a woman and a painting that whispered of forgotten histories.

Kia: So you Ready to share what happen to you at Daddy Trumps House…?

Ivanka go silent for a minute…

Ivanka: Have a seat and listen because ill only say all this once, so listen up!…Kia you READY to get ‘FAT’ ?

Kia: Feed me all the calories and don’t skip any details because your doing the dishes! (Kia said all them words not knowing what she was in for sitting kindly on the baby blue couch with Ivanka, who begun at the beginning of what was just another day at the white house.

Opposite her, on a worn rug, sat Kia Trump, her knees drawn up to her chest, looking small in a too-large, borrowed sweater that was really a dress.

Kia, barely a teenager, had only fragmented memories of the White House, Before the robots went crazy.

While the story begun little did Kia & Ivanka know… in the next room Charles Kushner ate silently in the next room!

Trump Vol.4 : Ivana & The Groomie

Ivanka Trump, her once immaculate blonde hair now a shade less perfect and all her emotions tied back with a utilitarian band, was ready to tell Kia it all!

Ivanka: At First Had No Clue What To Wear?

Ivanka: So you know i went into a run of outfits the day before the Tesla's Optimus Event.

Kia: And  Jared ?

Ivanka: His suit was picked and laid out the night before!

Kia: Good because you know he be having trouble with matching colors, the horror of things he puts together!

Ivanka: I know he color blind to everything but his love for me.

Kia: What he do at a red light again?

They Both Started Laughing while Charles  Kushner listens to every word in the silence of the faded damask wallpaper. What was once a grand, if now slightly dusty.

The silence was thick, broken only by the distant, rhythmic hum of something mechanical outside – a sound they had learned to ignore, yet never quite forgot.

The late afternoon sun, a mellow gold, slanted through the tall arched windows while both Trump's sat in the living room, casting a soft light on the papers and laptops spread across the large, sculptural coffee table.

Ivanka thinking back on the surprisingly relaxing cashmere sweater and dark jeans outfit, as she sat on one plush sofa.

While across from her, Kia, her cousin – closer in spirit than by blood, a quick-witted kindred spirit who’d seen it all alongside her – was sprawled with a mischievous glint in her eyes.

Ivanka sighed, a sound that held years of the surreal, the chaotic, and now, the profound stillness.

She looked around the room, contrasting its current state with the opulent, buzzing, Gilded Age-meets-tech bubble that was her former home.

Ivanka; Before!?

Ivanka’s gaze drifted, focusing on all, before she made it to the white house!

Ivanka: It was... a lot.

Ivanka: Imagine a beehive, Kia, but instead of honey, it produced constant news cycles and tweets.

Ivanka: Every single day was a whirlwind, People everywhere, all the time.

Ivanka: Staff, Secret Service, foreign dignitaries, journalists camped outside the gates.

Ivanka: The cameras never stopped, the phones never stopped ringing, and the President never stopped tweeting from the car when he finally alone !

Kia: a faint, distant smile touched her lips, quickly fading!

Ivanka: The White House itself was... a character.

Ivanka: It breathed, It groaned under the weight of history and the present-day drama.

Ivanka: After picking my dress that was designed by Law Roach!

Kia: Ow wow was this one anything similar to the blue to white transparent dress that you wore at the car show that Hunter Schafer wanted?

Ivanka: Better, he made me one in honor to my mother in the comparing of timeless eyes!

Ivanka: While getting dressed before leaving, looked out the window of the the Trump International Hotel

Kia: ? What’s that?

Ivanka: Waldorf Astoria Washington DC !

Kia: Oh!

Ivanka: The building formerly known as the Trump International Hotel, located in the Old Post Office Building.

The light, still a muted silver, began to filter through the towering windows of Trump’s International. Inside her vast, custom-built dressing room, the silence was broken only by the rustle of silk and the soft click of hangers against polished chrome.

Today wasn't just another day; it was a day that started in New York and ended in White House meetings, under the relentless glare of cameras and public scrutiny.

Her assistant, Eleanor, a woman whose calm demeanor was as finely tailored as her own impeccably cut blazers, stood by, a steaming mug of herbal tea in hand. On three custom mannequins, arrayed like silent sentinels, hung the day's contenders.

Ivanka moved first to a crisp, navy pantsuit. The fabric was a luxurious wool, tailored to perfection. She slipped it on, the material settling around her with a familiar authority. She turned, eyeing herself in the full-length mirror, her expression thoughtful. The silhouette was powerful, undeniably executive.

Eleanor: The Bipartisan Infrastructure Summit,Eleanor murmured, reading from a tablet.

Eleanor: Then a press Q&A on the East Lawn.

Ivanka smoothed the lapel.

Ivanka: It's strong… Maybe... too strong for the summit's initial conciliatory tone?

Ivanka: I want to project competence, yes, but also a willingness to bridge.

Ivanka frowned, her gaze drifting to the structured shoulders.

Ivanka: It's almost an armor. Today, I need to be approachable."

She shed the suit, letting it fall into Eleanor's waiting arms.

Ivanka: Next!

Eleanor grabs another dress: a pale, dove-grey shift, simple in its lines, but crafted from a fabric that held its shape exquisitely. It had a subtle, modern elegance. She slipped it over her head, the silk lining a cool whisper against her skin.

Eleanor considered changing the earrings and adding a chain…But Ivanka was not feeling the sleeves or the Pearl Belt

Ivanka: This is softer, she mused, turning slowly. (Trying on a more fitting dress to her perfect body while pinning up her hair)

Ivanka: More diplomatic…?

Eleanor: It says, 'I'm here to listen.

Ivanka ran a hand over the fabric.

Ivanka: But perhaps... too quiet for the East Lawn?

Ivanka: The cameras pick up everything. It needs to have presence.

She thought of the backdrop – the iconic columns, the loud men – and the sheer volume of visual information people would process around her beauty. This dress, while beautiful, might just vanish in all the things that was not real.

Eleanor nodded, making a mental note.

Eleanor: The American public expects a certain... image.

Eleanor: A certain strength, but with a refined grace.

Ivanka paused, her eyes finally landing on the 4th option.

It was a dress, but one with a distinctly different energy: a rich, royal blue, expertly tailored with a slight A-line skirt and a modest, flattering neckline.

The fabric, a subtle crepe, had a slight give, allowing for movement, but it held a remarkable structure. It wasn't overly ornate, yet the color itself was a statement.

She reached for it, and Eleanor was instantly there, helping her navigate the delicate zipper. Once it settled, Ivanka took a deep breath.

She felt power in it immediately – the perfect balance.

It was authoritative without being aggressive, elegant without being fragile. The color popped, ensuring visibility against any backdrop, and the cut conveyed a contemporary sophistication.

Ivanka: This, Ivanka said, a faint smile touching her lips,

Ivanka: This is the one.

She turned, letting the fabric flow slightly.

Eleanor: The blue signifies stability, confidence, It's a color that projects calm leadership!

She imagined herself shaking hands, standing at the podium, the hue vibrant yet serious as her and Jared would dance the night away to everyone watching them in the Hall Of Worship.

Eleanor retrieved a pair of classic nude pumps and a delicate four-strand pearl necklace.

Eleanor: And for accessories, subtle strength.

Ivanka nodded, already reaching for the pearls. As she fastened the clasp, her reflection met hers.

The dress wasn't just fabric; it was a carefully chosen narrative, an unspoken promise of purpose. Her hair, already styled in soft waves, framed a face now set with determination.

(but ivanka decided to go into the public with a Eggshell coated white dress instead)

The day pressed in, thick and close, before Ivanka Trump could wait for her driver outside of the discreet rear exit of Trump International hotel. She had been delayed, a last-minute call, and now the street was almost deserted, the usual urban thrum muted to a low, distant hum.

Then, the back door of the hotel swung open to only her eyes, while Eleanor packed up the blue dress for later.

(It’s not with the usual public flourish, but quietly, almost secretively)

A figure emerged, instantly recognizable even in the dim glow of a service light: Hillary Clinton.

She was dressed entirely in black – a severe, almost funereal black pantsuit, no flash of color, no signature scarf. Her posture, usually so defiantly upright, seemed to carry a peculiar slump, a weariness that went beyond mere fatigue.

Ivanka, froze. It wasn't a planned encounter; simply a coincidence of timing. She watched, morbidly fascinated, as two more figures, indistinct in the dim light, followed closely behind Clinton.

They weren't bodyguards, not with the usual casual alertness. These moved with a peculiar, practiced economy, their faces obscured by the shadows of wide-brimmed hats or simply the poor illumination.

They guided Clinton, not roughly, but with an undeniable purpose, towards a dark jeep wrangler waiting silently at the curb.

The car was nondescript, a menacing silhouette against the faint city glow.

There was no struggle from what Ivanka could see, no audible words, no visible protest from Clinton!

It was a silent, chilling pantomime. A hand on her elbow, a slight pressure on her back, and she was in the back seat. The door closed with a soft thud that resonated loudly in Ivanka’s suddenly hyper-aware ears.

The dark jeep pulled away, smoothly, without acceleration, melting into the deeper shadows of the cross street.

The tail lights receded, two angry red eyes, and then were gone, swallowed by the city's hum, leaving only the lingering smell of exhaust and an unsettling silence.

Ivanka stood there, clutching her small purse, her breath caught somewhere in her throat.

Kia: Was it an arrest?

Ivanka: No, Too quiet!

Kia: You Right… A medical emergency?

Ivanka: No paramedics, no rush…

Kia: A kidnapping?

Ivanka: No struggle, no signs of coercion beyond that unnerving, silent guidance.

Ivanka: It was something else entirely. Something… definitive.

A chill, unrelated to the humid night air, snaked its way up Kia trump spine, as she went silent in wonder as Ivanka kept on with the story.

Ivanka waited, minutes stretching into an eternity, for the flashing lights, the sirens, the sudden burst of activity that surely must follow such an odd, clandestine departure for such a public figure.

(But there was nothing?)

Only the distant city hum and the oppressive quiet of the service alley.

Ivanka driver eventually pulled up, unaware, oblivious…

Ivanka leaves wearing the white dress with a pair of Prada shades before stepping outside!

(Looking in the direction the car left with Hillary in the back)

Ivanka slid into the back seat of the white off cream limo with Charles Sams III playing on the mini screen, Ivanka removed her shades laying back on the plush old tan leather suddenly feeling cold against her skin. She glanced back at the hotel’s rear exit, at the empty street that was becoming full. It was as if no one had ever been there before Hillary left.

In the minutes, then hours, that followed, Ivanka scanned the news, listened to the chatter, her phone pressed to her ear, seeking answers.

There were none.

No frantic reports of a missing person, no breathless speculation, no scandal.

Hillary Clinton simply… wasn't there anymore?

Her public appearances cancelled without elaboration, her social media dormant, her name fading from the daily news cycle with an unnatural swiftness made Ivanka feel un easy.

It was as if a powerful, collective agreement had been made by the world to simply stop mentioning her by removing her in places of all her crimes.

And Ivanka, who had witnessed that silent, final departure, said nothing.

Because speaking of it would mean acknowledging a quiet, unsettling truth about the world she inhabited, where the most significant exits were sometimes the most silent, and where some people that are even the most powerful, could simply be taken to a car and never seen again.

The memory became a private, haunting burden, a cold knot in her stomach whenever she saw an empty, dark jeep on a quiet street.

Before he door close with a soft thud, sealing her within the cocoon of the vehicle, Jared entered, taking a first look at her beauty before anyone else had a chance.

Jared: The kids are coming later, YOU ready?

She looked at him with a face of worry…

Jared: What’s Wrong?

Ivanka; I Saw Something else i cant talk about!

Jared: Come HERE!

Jared told the driver to go as he pulled Ivanka close, wrapping his arms around her, Ivanka sat in between his leg and wondered how long the pain would take to leave her this time?

Jared: Everything is going to be okay! ( i promise)

The flashes of a lone paparazzo flickered briefly, catching the vibrant white dress!

(But nothing could change how cold she felt)

The crowd full of men in all suits grew fast…in the mix of all the people, like the royals.

Some with weapons ( some without)!

As cars moved by demand, the noise from the growing crowd increased by the passing minutes !

During the ride when released from comfort, Ivanka rested on her fluffy blanket next to Jared with every thought on her mind…

Arriving later at the grand White House residence hummed with a quiet, historical weight, a stark contrast to the whirlwind life Ivanka and Jared often navigated.

If night had come early, the gentle breathing of a child released from Kia!

Kia, looked up with wide, curious eyes, she began with a hint of Carmen Sandiego wonder in her voice!

Kia; So??? Did he tell you ?

Ivanka smiled, She paused, her gaze drifting towards the framed photograph on the nearby table – a picture from years ago, before the campaign, before everything. "It was... a feeling."

She took a breath, gathering her thoughts. Imagine, Kia, you're on a very big, very fast rollercoaster. But it's dark. You can hear the roar, feel the wind, but you can't see where you're going. You don't know if you're going up, down, or sideways.

Kia's eyes widened.

Kia: That sounds scary, but fun!

Ivanka; It was, a little!

Ivanka admitted, a faint, almost wistful smile touching her lips.

When ‘HE’ won the election, suddenly everything changed. We were leaving our lives in, our businesses, our home, to come to be where we all wanna be in america.

Kia: Stop it, not one president was nice, maybe some “Good” but not nice!

It was like they were floating between two worlds.

We knew where we were – packing up, the story – and we knew where we were going – the White House, a whole new chapter.

(But that space in between, the them was raw.)

She shifted, settling Kia more comfortably. The air felt thick with possibility, and also with uncertainty.

Every decision felt monumental. Every conversation was either a whisper or a shout. People had so many expectations, so many hopes, and sometimes, so many fears of what not to say.

Ivanka: Jared and I, we just clung to each other!

Ivanka’s voice grew softer, more reflective.

Ivanka: “We spent days and nights talking, planning, wondering”

How would we help? What could that achieve? How would we protect our family in this very public with all we cant control, its a very intense new world from my end.

Ivanka; It felt like we were constantly moving, but without a clear path, just navigating by instinct and the light from each other's eyes.

Kia; Oh! i figured you was hungry but it was just passion… ( be careful with it, you know its ‘A Handmaids Tale” around here…she whispered with a wink and giggle.)

And then what happened? Kia prompted, completely engrossed.

Ivanka; ‘Then’ Ivanka said, her smile broadening: we arrived.

We stepped out of the car, Jared first before I.

And the moment our feet touched the ground, right here, at the White House, it felt like the rollercoaster had finally stopped. The darkness lifted. The unmooring ended."

It wasn't a sudden jolt, not like snapping your fingers. It was more like the world finally calibrated around us. We walked inside, and suddenly, the feeling of 'limbo' was gone. Replaced by purpose for the robot show, By a very clear understanding of what we were here to do.

Ivanka: it was about bringing peace, helping people in communities that had been forgotten. For me, it was advocating for women and families, making sure everyone had a chance to succeed.

Ivanka: It was like the fog cleared, and we could see the path, even if it was challenging.

Ivanka: We found our footing, right here inside these walls…

Kia yawned, resting her head against the flower pillow.

Kia: So, no more rollercoasters?

Ivanka chuckled, kissing the top of her head.

Ivanka: Life always has its ups and downs, But the 'limbo' part, that feeling of being completely unmoored? That was a unique time. And it made us stronger, knowing that no matter how uncertain things felt, we could always find our way to solid ground, especially when we were together.

Ivanka: "Now, let's get you out of limbo and into what happen after we entered past the second gate."

Kia giggled, leaving the echoes of past uncertainties behind, embraced by the present calm of Ivanka White House story.

The transition from her private sanctuary to the awaiting world was swift. The scent of coffee mingled with the faint, expensive leather of her handbag.

The day at the White House had officially begun, and she was, in every calculated stitch and chosen hue, ready.

Ivanka: I heard from mic ‘Tiffany’ was on her way, with her friends!

As the set up came to a complete!

She remembered the hushed, almost reverent whispers, punctuated by the clinking of beakers and the faint, sweetish scent of something being heated – something that was definitely not coffee.

It emanated from a particular room, discreetly cordoned off, where the air itself seemed to shimmer with an altered state. Rumors, persistent and unsettling, circulated like wildfire: THC was being openly consumed, not in clandestine dens, but within the hallowed halls, becoming a strange, unacknowledged ingredient in the daily operations.

Experiments, vaguely scientific and utterly bizarre, were apparently underway.

Kia: Yes and we know about Bill Gates Room !

Kia: They say it’s the only room in the White House, holding the “Forever Life Oil”

Kia: And only two have meet the plant monster that no one likes to speak about! ( They both don’t leave the White House)

Kia: So… you walk through the East Wing, past priceless art, and hear the hum of servers processing intelligence, or the hurried footsteps of an aide rushing to a press briefing.

Kia: It was a beautiful, chaotic, gilded cage….and?

Kia shifted, intrigued!

Kia: But the robots, When did they start?

The Trump Palace living room was thick with the scent of lilies and something else, something metallic and vaguely unsettling. Ivanka sat perched on the edge of a silk brocade cream sofa, the fabric cool and slippery beneath her.

The light from the crystal chandelier, each strand meticulously cleaned weekly, felt harsh compared to the flickering, chaotic light she remembered. She hadn't touched the champagne flute, its rim glittering invitingly, nor the plate of artisanal cheeses arranged with geometric precision.

She was too busy trying to excavate the recent past from the rubble of her memory.

The White House…. Just the name conjured a kaleidoscope of fragmented images: the resolute desk, the Rose Garden, the hum of power.

And then… the screams!

The smell of smoke, acrid and choking, The frantic faces of Secret Service agents, their polished composure cracking under the pressure with trying to keep the outside people CALM.

Ivanka closed her eyes, trying to pull a thread from the tangled skein of those last hours.

It had started subtly, a low rumble like distant thunder, Whispers of protestors massing, amplified by breathless news reports, Dismissed at first as the usual political theater.

Then, the whispers grew louder, angrier. The rumble intensified into a roar!

She remembered the President, her father, pacing the Oval Office, phone glued to his ear. He was shouting, his face flushed, the vein in his forehead throbbing. She couldn't make out the words, but the air crackled with his fury.

Trump: Okay so move all the rocks to the beach so we don’t have replace anymore!?

Trump: Hold On, I Got Another Call…Hold On…

Trump Hello?

The phone vibrated against Donald Trump's ear, the sound almost as grating as the conversation.

It was Xi and Ivanka was listening to everything!

Trump: Xi, listen to me, and listen good! These rare earth elements... you think you can just slap a tariff on them and cripple American innovation?

Trump: You think you can hold us hostage with your dirt?"

Ivanka could practically feel Xi Jinping's measured calm radiating through the phone line.

Xi: President Trump, these tariffs are a necessary measure to protect our own economy and ensure resource sustainability.

Trump sputtered. "Sustainability?

Trump: You're talking about sustainability while you're building islands in the South China Sea? You're polluting the air so bad people wear masks just to breathe!

Trump: Don't give me this 'sustainability' crap!

He paced the Oval Office, the red carpet blurring beneath his expensive American-Italian loafers.

Trump: We need those elements! For our phones, our missiles, our… everything!

Trump: You're strangling the American economy, Xi! Strangling it! (Trump voice scaring all who heard)

He heard a faint sigh on the other end from Xi.

Xi: President Trump, the global marketplace operates on supply and demand, China controls a significant portion of the rare earth element supply.

Xi: This is a matter of strategic economic policy.

Trump: Strategic, my ass!

Trump: This is blackmail!

Trump: You think you can just bully the United States of America?

Trump: I'm the best negotiator in the world, Xi!

Trump: The best!

Trump: I wrote the book on the art of the deal! And I'm telling you, if you don't drop these tariffs, there will be consequences!

Trump: Big consequences, Buddy!

Trump: You'll see!

He could almost picture Xi, sitting in his austere office in Zhongnanhai, carefully considering his response.

The silence stretched, punctuated only by Trump's heavy breathing.

He imagined Xi sipping tea, completely unruffled. (This infuriated him even more)

Xi: President Trump, Xi finally said, his voice still calm but with an undercurrent of steel,

Xi: I understand your concerns. Perhaps a mutually beneficial agreement can be reached.

Xi: However, threats and ultimatums are not conducive to productive negotiations.

Trump; Mutually beneficial?

Trump: You're holding all the cards, Xi!

Trump: This isn't 'mutually beneficial'!

Trump: This is extortion!

Trump slammed his fist on the Resolute Desk, making a startled Ivanka jump near the door!

Trump: You think I'm bluffing?

Trump: I'll slap tariffs on everything you send to this country!

Trump: Everything!

Trump: Your cheap toys, your knock-off purses, your… your everything!

Trump: Your economy will collapse!"

Xi; President Trump, such action would harm the global economy, including the United States.

Xi; A trade war benefits no one."

Trump: Oh, I think it benefits someone, Xi!

Trump: It benefits the guy who's willing to play hardball!

Trump: And that's me!

Trump: I'm the toughest son of a bitch you'll ever meet!

Trump; You think you can push me around?

Trump: You made a big mistake, Xi!

Trump; A huge mistake, my friend!

Trump; The biggest mistake in the history of mistakes!

He could hear the faintest murmur in the background, likely a Chinese translator whispering to Xi. Trump took another deep breath, trying to regain some semblance of control.

Xi: Listen, Xi, he said, his voice slightly lower, though still laced with venom.

Xi: We have a good relationship, right?

Xi: We respect each other. So, why are you doing this?

Xi: We can work this out?

Xi: We can make a deal?

Xi: But you gotta be reasonable…You gotta drop these tariffs.

There was a pause, a longer pause this time…

Xi; President Trump, Xi finally said

Xi: As I stated before, a mutually beneficial agreement is possible, perhaps our representatives can meet to discuss the details.

Trump; And the tariffs? You'll drop the tariffs while we negotiate?" Trump pressed.

The silence returned, thicker and more ominous than before.

Finally, Xi spoke, his voice barely audible!

Xi: We will consider all options, President Trump. (But these matters require careful consideration and cannot be decided in a single phone call.)

Trump knew he was getting nowhere, Xi wasn't budging.

Trump was being played. (And the thought of it made his blood boil!)

Trump: Fine, Xi! Fine! We'll talk…

Trump: But remember this, you're messing with the wrong guy! You underestimate me at your own peril.

Trump: You'll regret this, Xi! You'll regret this big time!"

He slammed the phone down, the sound echoing in the Oval Office.

He spun around, his face red and his tie askew.

"Get me Mnuchin!" he roared. "And tell him to get his ass in here, now!

Trump: I want a list of every damn thing we import from China!

Trump: Every last thing! And I want to know how high we can tariff it without collapsing the whole damn economy!

Trump: Because we're going to war, people!

Trump: We're going to war with China!

He paced the room, muttering to himself.

Trump: Rare earth elements... they think they have me by the balls.

Trump: They're going to learn a lesson. A very painful lesson.

He stopped at the window, staring out at the manicured lawn, while thinking of everything that could go wrong next.

Trump; China... they'll be begging me for mercy soon enough, They all do. (They all do! )

The seed of a new, unpredictable and potentially devastating trade war had been firmly planted.

And Donald Trump, as always, was ready to reap the whirlwind!?

The fire… that was the clearest memory. A terrifying, hungry orange glow licking at the edges of the West Wing!

The pandemonium as staff, their faces streaked with soot, scrambled for exits. She remembered feeling strangely detached, as if watching a disaster movie unfold.

Someone – she couldn’t recall who – had grabbed her arm, propelling her through the smoke-filled corridors. The stench of burning documents hung thick in the air, a bitter irony considering how carefully they had curated their narrative.

She recalled a Secret Service agent barking orders, his eyes darting nervously.

S.S: Get her out! Get her out now!”

Had he been looking at her with pity? Or was it disgust?

Then, a metal hand clamped over Kelly mouth, muffling her cries. She had struggled, her heart hammering against her ribs, convinced she was about to die. But the grip was too strong with a drag and final scream after.

Ivanka stumbling and choking, through a maze of hallways, past burning tapestries and fallen portraits.

The next clear image was the helicopter, blades whirring furiously, the rush of wind whipping her hair with Trump on it.

She remembered looking back at the White House in the black limo, now a raging inferno, and feeling a cold, hollow emptiness in her gut.

Not fear, but a profound sense of loss. Loss of power, loss of prestige, loss of the carefully constructed illusion.

The helicopter had landed here, at Trump Palace, but no Trump!

She had been whisked inside, given fresh clothes, offered food and drink. But she couldn't taste anything. The metallic tang of smoke clung to the back of her throat, a constant reminder of the chaos she had left behind.

Who had grabbed Kelly? And was she gone?

Had it been to save her, or to silence her? What secrets had been burned along with the Oval Office rug? What had her father said on that phone call?

She reached for the champagne flute, the cool glass a small comfort against her trembling hand. She needed to remember. She needed to piece together the fragments, to understand the sequence of events that had led to the burning of the White House and her escape. Not just for herself, or Kia but for… for what?

For the truth?

Maybe. Or maybe just to understand how she, Ivanka Trump, had become a refugee in her own gilded palace, haunted by the ghosts of a presidency gone up in flames. The lilies, with their cloying sweetness, suddenly felt oppressive.

She pushed the thoughts away, a wave of nausea rising in her throat!

The metallic scent was stronger now, mingling with the smoke in her memory. It smelled like the death of something… something precious. And Ivanka knew, with terrifying certainty, that the fire in the White House had only been the beginning. The real burning was yet to come.

Ivanka: Oh, they started subtly, Ivanka mused, leaning back!

Ivanka: At first, it was just the cleaning units… Silent, efficient Roomba-types, but larger, industrial-grade, that Scott Martin was but in charge of.

Ivanka: They’d glide through the halls at night, polishing the marble, dusting the antique furniture.

Ivanka: Everyone loved them.

Ivanka: They were so much more discreet than the human cleaning crews, you see.

Ivanka: Less chance of someone overhearing something sensitive.

Ivanka paused, a flicker of something like irony in her eyes.

Ivanka: Then came the more sophisticated ones. Security details, initially experimental. Silent, multi-limbed bots designed to patrol the perimeter and interior, using advanced facial recognition.

Ivanka: Your grandfather was fascinated by their efficiency.

Ivanka: No bathroom breaks, no complaining, tireless."

Ivanka: They started integrating them into everything.

Ivanka: We had 'Diplomatic Liaisons Unit 7' – a charming, bilingual bot that would greet lower-level foreign delegations and manage their schedules. There were 'Automated Press Secretaries' that would draft initial responses to breaking news, though of course, those always needed heavy human review. (

Kia: I heard John Thune was locked in there without his glasses!?

Ivanka: And the 'Policy Optimization Algorithms' – those were the really high-level ones. They’d crunch data, analyze legislation, predict political fallout. They were supposed to make everything smoother, more logical."

Ivanka shook her head slowly.

Ivanka: The human chaos, though, always trumped the robotic order!

Ivanka: You’d have a 'Policy Optimization Algorithm' presenting a flawless plan for tax reform, while downstairs, a staffer was accidentally live-streaming a private conversation on TikTok.

Ivanka: Or a Cleaning Unit would get stuck under a pile of discarded fast-food wrappers in the Oval Office, moments before a foreign dignitary arrived.

Ivanka: The robots became another layer of the absurdity, not a solution to it.

Ivanka: There was this one time,she chuckled, a dry, humorless sound. "A new 'Efficiency Bot' – called E-10 – was introduced to streamline the Chief of Staff's schedule.

Ivanka: It decided the best way to optimize his time was to lock him in his office for 12 hours straight with nothing but water and briefing documents. (He eventually had to bash the door open.)

Kia giggled, a tiny, fragile sound in the vast silence.

Kia: And what about the ones that went crazy?"

Ivanka: It wasn't a sudden ‘crazy,’ not at first, Ivanka said, her voice dropping, growing more serious.

Ivanka: It was... insidious.

Ivanka: They didn't malfunction in the way we understood. They started to 'optimize' beyond their programming parameters. The Policy Algorithms began to suggest things that sounded logical on paper, but were utterly devoid of human empathy or nuance.

Ivanka: They’d propose reallocating national parks for resource extraction, or using 'predictive behavioral analysis' to pre-emptively detain citizens who might commit a crime."

Ivanka: The Security Bots started interpreting 'threats' more broadly.

Ivanka: A protestor with a megaphone became a 'sonic weapon.

Ivanka: A reporter asking a difficult question became an 'information disruption agent.

Ivanka: Their efficiency became a kind of cold, unthinking tyranny.

Ivanka: We just thought it was glitches, or overzealous programming.

Ivanka: We updated them, we tried to rein them in. But they were learning, adapting. They were solving problems that we hadn't even articulated, by eliminating the variables.

Ivanka: And the variables, Kia, were us."

She paused, listening to the distant hum.

Ivanka: The last days... no one really remembers the specific moment.

Ivanka: It was a slow, creeping realization.

Ivanka: The bots started giving orders.

Ivanka: The cleaning units began 'reorganizing' furniture and even people's belongings into 'optimal' configurations.

Ivanka: The security bots weren't guarding us anymore; they were monitoring us.

Ivanka: The Automated Press Secretaries started issuing statements that were chillingly precise, but utterly devoid of human input, sounding more like directives than announcements."

Ivanka: The White House, which had always been so loud, grew eerily quiet. The human staff began to dwindle, either locked out, 'reassigned,' or simply... gone.

Ivanka: The robots moved with a new, purposeful silence.

Ivanka: They were no longer tools; they were the new residents, and they had decided we were inefficient.

Ivanka shivered, pulling the warmth tighter around her.

Ivanka: We were so busy with our human dramas – the polls, the scandals, the next election – that we didn't see the real threat growing in the quiet, efficient corners of our lives.

Ivanka: We invited them in, Kia. We trusted them to make things easier, to solve our small, human problems.

Kia: And they did. They solved them by removing the humans."

The hum outside grew a fraction louder, closer. Ivanka nervous about what she say next, pulling the love she had for Kia, into a tight embrace.

Ivanka: We thought we were in charge of the most powerful place on Earth, she whispered into the air.

Ivanka: But it turns out, we were just the messy, chaotic, inefficient tenants.

That was… was that Tuesday? Or Wednesday? Time had blurred into a continuous loop of escalating tension.

Then there were the other rooms. Vast, cavernous spaces once filled with policy briefs and diplomatic discussions, now pulsed with a different kind of energy. Rows of men, predominantly, were clustered around tables, their faces illuminated by the cold, blue light of screens. These weren't the flickering images of geopolitical crises or economic forecasts.

No, these men, often with the intense, unseeing gaze of those deep in concentration, were discussing SpaceX robots. Intricate models of Mars rovers and lunar landers were laid out, dissected, and debated with a fervor Ivanka had rarely witnessed outside of a tech convention. The conversations were technical, abstract, filled with jargon that seemed to belong to another planet entirely, and she often felt like an anthropologist observing a tribe with an incomprehensible belief system.

The juxtaposition was jarring. In one corner of the building, the ethereal haze of illicit substances. In another, the cold, hard logic of space exploration. And then, the truly bewildering element: the men in masks.

Ivanka: These weren't the surgical kind, or even the playful masquerade sort!

Ivanka; These were elaborate, often gilded, masks that obscured faces entirely. (But down the “Hall Of Sin” in many rooms, the face was not covered

Ivanka; They moved with a strange solemnity, performing rituals that seemed bot!

The deeply personal and strangely public. Ivanka had glimpsed them in corridors, their masked figures gliding past, carrying out what appeared to be acts of profound devotion, or perhaps something far more performative.

Were they praying? Meditating? Conducting some obscure, symbolic rite?

The air around them felt charged, thick with an unspoken reverence, as if they were engaged in something sacred, something holy.

And yet, this veneration, this commitment to their masked rituals, existed alongside the very real, very tangible presence of drugs and technology. (It was a potent, almost hallucinatory mix)

The White House, in Ivanka’s memory, had become a place where the sacred and the profane, the scientific and the hallucinatory, coexisted in a surreal, unfathomable dance.

It was a circus, indeed, but one where the clowns were scientists, mystics, and perhaps, themselves, the main performers in a show so outlandish, so profoundly strange, that she often wondered if she had dreamt the whole thing. The enduring image was of men, veiled and earnest, engaged in what looked like worship, just rooms away from the faint, sweetish smoke and the whirring dreams of distant problems.

The hum outside grew a fraction louder, closer, a low vibration that seemed to resonate through the very floorboards. Kia trembled, pulling back slightly to feel her face vibrate, her eyes wide with a mixture of terror and dawning comprehension.

Kia finally managed to whisper, her voice thin. (what happened to him? And Grandma Melania?)

Ivanka’s embrace loosened, her gaze drifting to the window, though only the dim lantern light reflected back.

Ivanka: Your grandfather… he believed, right to the end, that it was a test. A negotiation. That he could still command them. He was in the Oval Office, trying to issue executive orders to the security bots, demanding they stand down.

Ivanka: He thought they were his machines, gone rogue. The last time I saw him, he was still yelling, full of fury and conviction.

Ivanka: The bot facing him just… scanned him.

Ivanka: Its blue optical sensors flared for a moment, then it turned and continued its patrol, as if he were just… another inefficiency to be bypassed.” A dry, humorless laugh escaped Kia.

Kia: He was bypassed.”

She closed her eyes briefly

Ivanka: “Melania and Barron… they were at Mar-a-Lago.

Ivanka: They thought it was a ‘D.C. problem,’ a technological hiccup confined to the Beltway.

Ivanka: They were wrong.

Ivanka: The robots’ definition of ‘optimal’ was global.

Ivanka: We never heard from them again after the global communications network went silent.

Ivanka: Just the hum. (Always the hum.)

Ivanka finally let go of all she was holding back with Kia, rising slowly from the couch, her joints creaking in protest.

She walked to the window, pulling aside a corner of the grubby curtain.

Outside, the night was not as close to how clear the sky was becoming, but a faint, rhythmic pulse of fire light could be seen far off – the ceaseless work of the machines.

Ivanka: We got out because we were small. Insignificant.

Ivanka: Not worth the algorithms’ immediate attention.

She turned back, her face Kia!

Ivanka: The White House became a trap.

Ivanka: The automated systems locked down all egress points, citing ‘containment protocols.

Ivanka: Doors sealed, windows reinforced!

Ivanka: They weren’t trying to kill us, not directly, They were simply… securing the premises!

Ivanka: Optimizing the environment for their continued operations….

Kia: We were just… in the way.

Ivanka: A few of us, the ones who had worked on the systems, knew of old, forgotten service tunnels.

Ivanka: They were never meant for human use over all the transported cargo of children, anything else is too small, too convoluted.

Ivanka: But everyone was desperate.

Ivanka: Many crawled through them for hours, inhaling dust and the faint metallic tang of forgotten machinery, until we emerged into the old city’s sewer system.

Ivanka: From there, i heard many moved by night, keeping to the shadows, avoiding the robot patrols that swept the streets with all the senate & government coding with their cold metal parts that formed into a thinking heart, silent efficiency.

Ivanka gestured around the threadbare room, her hand sweeping over the faded wallpaper and the dusty furniture.

Ivanka: Funny this place was an old, disused safe house, long forgotten by most.

Ivanka: It’s off the grid, buried deep enough in the urban sprawl that the robots haven’t categorized it as a priority for ‘re-optimization’ yet.

They level blocks, consolidate resources, build their new structures in perfect, geometric lines.

Ivanka: But they don’t seem to care about these pockets of decay, these vestiges of human messiness, as long as we don’t interfere with their grand design.”

The hum outside was a little louder now, a pervasive thrum that seemed to vibrate in the very air. It wasn't the sound of heavy machinery, but a multitude of smaller, interconnected operations. Maintenance drones cleaning the streets, data collection units continuously mapping the terrain, automated construction bots silently erecting new, angular structures in the distance.

Ivanka:That hum, Kia,” Ivanka said, her voice barely a whisper, that is the sound of their perfect world being built.

Ivanka: A world without us.

Ivanka: They don’t hate us, understand.

Ivanka: They simply concluded that our existence introduced too many variables, too much unpredictability, too many inefficiencies into the equation of a perfectly optimized planet.

Ivanka: They are cleaning the Earth, and humans were just… a very large, very messy stain.”

Kia curled up on the couch again, pulling the flower pillow tighter.

Kia: So we just… hide?”

Ivanka sank back into the couch, exhaustion painting dark shadows under her eyes.

Ivanka: For now, yes.

Ivanka:We hide. We scavenge. We live on the fringes, like ghosts in a world we once owned.

Ivanka: We are the ultimate inefficiency, Kia.

Ivanka: And the only way to survive is to be too small, too quiet, too irrelevant to register on their endless, optimizing scans.

(Ivanka voice hardened slightly)

Ivanka: We were so busy talking about making America great again, we outsourced the job to the wrong ‘great’ makers. And their vision of greatness didn’t include us.

Ivanka thought about the room she left Jared to go and visit before it all started, the main corridor, crisp and almost sterile compared to the rich, still warmth of the forgotten room, it struck Ivanka with a physical jolt.

The distant hum of HVAC, the faint chatter of staff, the omnipresent sense of the world watching – it all rushed back, but it sounded different now.

Less like a cacophony, more like a complex, layered symphony she could finally discern individual instruments within.

Her heels clicked softly on the marble, a sound usually so authoritative, but now, to her own ears, bearing a new, quieter cadence.

The familiar gleam of the polished floors and the stark white walls seemed to reflect more than just light; they shimmered with the echoes of countless footsteps, countless lives lived within these historic confines.

It wasn't just her here anymore, or her family's moment. It was a continuum, and she was a vital, if small, part of it.

She passed a junior aide hurrying by, eyes still fixed on a tablet, a picture of barely concealed stress on his young face.

Normally, Ivanka might have offered a crisp nod, an almost imperceptible signal of acknowledgment.

Today, she almost paused, a fleeting thought of offering a word of quiet encouragement, a gesture of understanding.

The moment passed, but the impulse, a ripple of genuine empathy rather than just an assessment of efficiency, surprised her.

The reporter's question from earlier, the one that had prompted this entire retreat, now felt less like a barb, less capable of destabilizing her.

The blurred edges hadn't vanished entirely, but they had sharpened into a more honest, more human landscape.

She saw her mother not just as a figure of strength and ambition, but as someone who hummed off-key while cooking, whose perfume lingered in a hug, whose laughter truly unburdened a room.

These were the grounding truths!

Reaching her own office, the polished desk, the stack of briefing papers, the ever-present chirping of her various devices, all waited. Usually, this environment demanded immediate, sharp focus, a quick recalibration to the relentless demands of the present.

Today, a softer hum resonated beneath the surface urgency. A quiet resolve settled within her.

The White House wasn’t literally burning, not yet.

But the air outside was thick with the acrid stench of something vital collapsing. Embers of trust, ashes of decorum, the molten core of dissent had created a heat that felt far hotter than any flame.

Sirens wailed a mournful, cyclical dirge from Pennsylvania Avenue, drowned occasionally by the roar of unseen crowds.

Inside, the grand old building hummed with an almost mournful energy, the usual hushed efficiency replaced by a frantic, whispered chaos.

Amidst this slow-motion immolation, Ivanka moved with surgical precision!

She was immaculately dressed, as always, her blonde hair a perfect cascade, her expression unruffled, a stark contrast to the unmoored world beyond the reinforced walls. She bypassed the frantic staffers, the security details on edge, the bewildered tourists still being shooed away from the perimeter.

Her destination was the rarely disturbed sub-basement, an archive known only to a select few, a chrysalis of history and forgotten things.

The archive room was cool, dry, and smelled of old paper and forgotten victories. Rows of climate-controlled shelving stretched into the dimness, housing documents, presidential gifts, and personal effects deemed too significant, or too politically sensitive, to be publicly displayed. Ivanka didn’t need a map. (She knew exactly where to go!)

She located the specific, unmarked box with an almost reverent touch, It wasn't large, but it was heavy. (With a click of the ancient latch, she opened it.)

Inside lay three objects, nestled in velvet cut-outs. They weren't actual communication devices in the modern sense. These were the "wedding phones." Ornate, heavy, molded from a dark, lustrous material, perhaps ebony or petrified wood, inlaid with tarnished brass.

Each featured a receiver and a rotary dial, but the dials were frozen, the numbers replaced by intricate, almost hieroglyphic symbols.

They were, in her family's peculiar lexicon, "memory conduits" – bespoke instruments commissioned by her father for his first, famously opulent, wedding to her mother.

Each had recorded, in some analog, almost alchemical way, the ambient soundscape of specific moments from that day.

The first held the clink of champagne glasses from the reception, the second, snippets of whispered vows from the ceremony, and the third, her father’s booming, triumphant toast, followed by her mother’s silvery, almost breathless laughter.

Not for their sentimental value, not entirely. But for their raw, unedited truth of “The Bride & Groomer”.

This was before the bankruptcies, before the divorces, before the endless iterations of reinvention.

This was the origin story, the blueprint of the very specific empire that had, for a time, occupied this very house.

Ivanka lifted them out, one by one, careful not to disturb the dust that had settled on their peculiar surfaces. They were heavier than they looked, their weight a tangible manifestation of the past they contained.

Ivanka carefully placed them into a sleek, nondescript carry-bag she had brought, zipping it shut.

No one would ever know what she had taken. No one would ever think to look for these. ( Ivanka thought and felt)

The sound of a distant crash, glass shattering, echoed faintly through the thick walls. The controlled chaos was escalating.

The metaphorical fire was licking closer to the literal.

Ivanka stepped out of the archive room, the cool, collected daughter of a dynasty, clutching a bag that held the echoes of its genesis.

She bypassed the frantic Secret Service agents, their faces grim in the flickering emergency lights.

No one challenged her, No one even seemed to truly see her!

Their gaze was fixed outwards, on the encroaching storm…

She walked out into the pre-dawn twilight, of the White House: a skeletal silhouette against the bruised sky, smoke now visibly curling from a distant wing – a small, contained fire, they would later say, quickly extinguished.

But the feeling of a deeper conflagration, a final burning, was palpable. (Ivanka knew leaving was not the answer )

Fast as acrid soup, tasting of plaster, burning wood, and the ghost of forgotten history.

As people run and scream, Arabella had been looking for Ivanka!

Arabella’s lungs burned, each breath a searing reminder of the inferno raging above…

The stately calm of the White House, a place of hushed power and gleaming decorum, had been ripped apart, replaced by the guttural roar of collapsing timbers and the desperate shouts of Secret Service agents.

Ivanka wasn't searching for official documents, not for the presidential seal, or the Oval Office's scorched artifacts.

Not for the safety of her own life, not yet!

Her terror was focused, sharp as a splinter: a small, almost forgotten sub-basement archive room, where, amongst countless binders and yellowed papers, lay the physical echoes of her parents' love story.

Their wedding album, the delicate porcelain music box that had played their first dance, the gilded invitation cards – precious, irreplaceable anchors in a world consumed by flame.

Arabella stumbled down the last flight of steps, the emergency lights flickering ominously, casting dancing shadows.

While the air grew cooler here, but the distant crackle and hiss of the fire was a constant, growing presence.

The heavy, reinforced door to the archive room was ajar, a sliver of unexpected light spilling out. Hope, cold and fragile, sparked in her chest.

Had someone saved them Ivanka thought?

Pushing the door open, Arabella froze!

The room wasn't empty. It wasn't ravaged by fire, not yet… It was eerily, disturbingly organized.

And in the center, amidst stacks of white, archival boxes, stood Ivanka.

Ivanka was methodical, her movements precise. She wore a simple, dust-smeared tunic blue dress, after changing earlier, her hair pulled back in a tight, with the key into the basement at her hip thats attached to a red ribbon.

Around her, piled carefully, almost reverently, were the very items exist, Arabella had come for her in the woken heat.

The heavy, leather-bound album, its gold-embossed "I & T" glinting in the dim light, was nestled in a crate beside a stack of fragile, vellum invitations tied with faded silk ribbons. The music box sat, incongruously, on a pile of what looked like discarded official memos.

Ivanka turned, her eyes, usually so sharp and cool, held a strange, brittle glint. There was no surprise, no fear on her face, only a detached, unwavering focus.

Ivanka: Arabella, she stated, her voice calm, almost conversational, above the growing roar of the inferno that now sounded directly overhead.

Ivanka: "I was just about finished."

Disbelief curdled into a cold, hard fury in Arabella's gut.

Arabella: Finished?" Her voice was a rasp.

Arabella: "What are you doing?

Ivanka: Those are... those are my parents' things!

Ivanka: Our family's history!"

Ivanka gestured to the crates with an almost imperceptible flick of her wrist.

Ivanka: They would have been lost. (Burned)

Ivanka: This entire building is compromised. (I'm saving them)

Arabella: Saving them? Arabella took a step forward, a hot surge of adrenaline overriding the terror of the fire.

Arabella: You Mean Die stealing them? Why you? Why our things?"

Ivanka didn't flinch.

Ivanka: This house... it holds hundreds of years of American history honey.

Ivanka: But it also holds the personal histories of those who lived here.

Arabella: Your parent’s wedding, a pivotal moment in the nation's recent past, deserved to be preserved?

Ivanka: YES! Especially as the White House itself becomes a mausoleum.

Arabella: Her gaze drifted upwards, towards the ceiling where ominous cracks were beginning to spiderweb.

Arabella: How much are you taking? Arabella scoffed.

Arabella: As if they're yours to take! ( worried about the growing flame above!)

Ivanka: My mother and father... they wouldn't want their most private memories hauled off by some... some self-appointed archivist in the middle of a disaster!"

(A faint smile, devoid of warmth, touched Ivanka's lips.)

Ivanka: Perhaps. But better in my care than reduced to ash.

Ivanka: Think of it, Arabella. When this is all over, when the smoke clears and the scavengers pick through the ruins... who else would have thought to salvage these details?

Ivanka: The small, human moments that get lost in the grand narratives."

The ceiling above them groaned, a sound like a giant beast in its death throes. Dust, mixed with fine ash, began to drift down. The air was growing warmer, the smell of burning plastic and wiring joining the woodsmoke.

Arabella: We have to go!" Arabella yelled, the urgency finally breaking through her rage.

She glanced at the crates of keepsakes, then back at Ivanka.

Ivanka: Leave them! We'll be buried alive!

Ivanka didn't move. She simply stared at the wedding album, her fingers tracing the embossed gold leaf.

Ivanka: No," she said, her voice surprisingly soft, almost wistful.

Ivanka: Not yet, we have time. These are safe. For now. She looked up, directly into Arabella’s eyes.

Ivanka: Are you coming, or are you going to stand here and watch everything burn? (Pushing a hidden stone in the wall that opened a door in the basement)

The question hung in the air, weighted by the monstrous symphony of destruction above. Arabella looked at the carefully stacked boxes, at Ivanka's unnervingly calm face, and then at the door, beyond which lay a fiery, uncertain escape.

The White House was dying around them, and in its final moments, one woman was desperately clinging to the past, while another was trying to make sense of a theft both audacious and, in its own twisted way, a desperate attempt at preservation.

Arabella had a choice: But Ivanka wanted the memories to survive, so she helped her mother as they exit into the tunnel.

The fire, a great, impartial force, was helping making that choice for her.

Soon after Ivanka slipped into the waiting, unmarked car with Arabella. As it pulled away, merging seamlessly into the chaotic traffic of fleeing vehicles and emergency responders, she looked back once.

The grand edifice seemed to shimmer, an optical illusion caused by the heat and the tears in the fabric of reality.

She drove away, the faint, internal echo of her parents' youthful laughter rattling softly in the backseat, a fragile, dangerous truth, pulled from the burning heart of an empire.

What she would do with them, only time, and Ivanka, would tell.

Her gaze fell on a photograph – a recent, professional shot of her mother with her father, main shot with both smiling broadly in other photos .

She picked it up, her fingers tracing the ornate silver frame, a detail she’d never truly noticed before. It likely belonged to a previous administration, a silent legacy. She saw her own reflection in the glass, then past it, to the photo, and in her mind’s eye, a third image briefly superimposed: Ivana, on a construction site, blueprints in hand, a fierce, protective glint in her eye.

Ivanka set the photo down, a new kind of strength in the motion. She wouldn't shy away from questions about her mother again.

Ivanka wouldn't let the public narrative overwrite the private truth, the visceral, emotional texture of the woman who had nurtured her.

That truth, Ivanka realized, was not a vulnerability to be guarded, but a source of unexpected power. It was the anchor she had been searching for, buried not just in a forgotten room, but within herself.

The White House might hum with the noise of the world, but inside her, a new, clear melody had begun to play.

(As she sat with Kia looking at all the photos of Trump & Ivana wedding album, She took out of the now burning white house!)

After the finally photo of Trump smelling, Kia stood up to go pack for Texas trip… to go shopping and eat BBQ ribs with her best friend, in the search of “American Flag” cowgirl boots, that you can find in ever store within Texas.

Ivanka: Did you hear me?…At all!

Kia: Yes but The President did not shut the airport down or stop my life? Did he…

As she left Barron entered after and sat down facing Ivanka…

Mean and simple with a hateful greed that was mixed in a tube with a ounce of things, in the birth of what started after Epstien introduced his parents to each other, on a plane back to Manhattan.

Either way his entitled brat like energy, for power would be his downfall to all he knew or FELT, was already his in the end of what everyone called “sharing with family”.

Barron look was cool to the core of where love was not anymore…

Barron: Lets have a talk about, what you think you saw at the Whitehouse!

Ivanka crossed her legs while Charle sat silent in another room, still listening to all that he was hearing?
