Beginnings of 2020 - Designated Survivor: A Day in the White House

Designated Survivor – A Day in the White House
It was calm as Chief of Staff Emily Rhodes arrived at the White House shortly before sunrise. But she knew it would be hectic later. It always was. It was exhausting, but working for the American people meant that it was worth it. As she entered her office, her aide, Sasha, gave her a clipboard. “Some last minute changes this morning,” she explained.

“Thanks, Sasha.” Emily looked over the schedule as she logged into her computer. There were only minor changes.


Seth Wright didn’t really expect anyone to be in his office. Other than that ongoing investigation into the First Lady’s family’s affairs, there wasn’t anything too controversial. “Tiffany?”

Tiffany Gimble got out his chair in an all business manner. “You look like you saw a ghost.”

“I don’t really expect to see reporters in my office first thing in the morning,” Seth responded. He supposed that after the response her exclusive on the President’s recent trip to Afghanistan had received she was eager for more.

“I’m the only one?”

“This early?” Tiffany asked.

“Yes. The only other one is Abe Leonard.”

“Abe Leonard?” Tiffany asked, with annoyance. “He may have two Pulitzers, but he’s a has been.”

“I’ll be sure not to quote you on that.”

“There is that magazine that Monique works at.”

‘No way.’ “Isn’t she Trent’s ex-girlfriend?”

“So?”

“Wouldn’t that be, awkward?”

“Not that awkward! At least give it a shot!”

“Ok. But that is all we are doing on Dega!”

“Deal!”

‘I hope so,’ Daria thought as they started going along that street. She looked up the street, trying to see anything that would be of interest.

“Harkness! UNIT and I definitely need your help,” the Doctor said.

“We will be there momentarily, Doctor,” Harkness conveyed.

“But there’s no fleet on the sensors,” Sabir protested.

“That is because the Torchwood fleet is currently cloaked, mr...” Jack said, allowing his voice to trail off questioningly.

“Davis, Sabir Davis.”

“I will talk to you later,” Jack expressed.

“Jack!” the Doctor warned, when she noticed Harkness flirting with Sabie.

“What? Can’t I have some fun?” Jack said with a protesting tone. “Anyway, there! De-cloaking now. That should give those Drahvin ice cubes something to think about!” Jack said.

“The Torchwood fleet is de-cloaking, Doctor,” Felicia pointed out. Sabir seemed to be ‘taken up’ by the commander of said fleet...
