The year was 1885 when the Tsar of Russia commissioned Carl Fabergé to commemorate Easter with a gift for his wife. In true Fabergé style, the first of the 57 Fabergé eggs, as they were called, was made. From 1885 to 1915 each year the Tsar received one of these most precious gifts. Unfortunately, the house of Fabergé never recovered from the Bolshevik revolution and an original Fabergé egg was never made again. The mysterious disappearance of 8 of these exquisite works of art remains a mystery to this day. Each egg was so magnificently crafted with pure gold and the most precious of all fine cut stones of diamonds, rubies and emeralds all embedded within, made each Faberge egg the most valuable work of art that, even today in day, is valued at more than 100 million. dollars each. Just think of what the combined value of those 8 missing Faberge eggs is worth today.

Whoever finds the eight Fabergé eggs could possibly control the destinies of man.

On the eve of the inauguration of newly elected President Glover Smith, events were unfolding around the world that would soon change the fate of nations. The world we now know would soon cease to exist.

Chapter 1

It had just begun to snow outside the White House, where the new president was preparing to leave for the George Washington Hotel for the first of many inaugural receptions, when news had just reached CIA headquarters that the Taliban and the -Qaeda reached an agreement with Pakistan and North Korea. Glover Smith was a former Navy fighter pilot, awarded a Medal of Honor and survived ten months as a Taliban POW. Now, at 63 and with white hair, he alone has the responsibility to preserve and protect the Constitution and all Americans. The enormity of realizing how important his responsibility is had just hit him.

An eminent real threat to the rest of the world now comes true an hour later when a hydrogen bomb dropped from somewhere in the Bay of Bengal annihilated the holiest city in the Muslim religion. Mecca now completely destroyed with millions dead. Spurred by the continuing unrest in Syria, Libya and Egypt, a tinderbox of tension has been ignited that could trigger World War III at any moment. What remains a total mystery is who and why anyone would want to start a world at war and risk Armageddon. Could it be that the most violent and ruthless organizations or nations can operate above international law? Who are the financiers of terrorism? The elusive answer to the mysterious benefactors of terrorism will soon be revealed in its most brutal and savage way.

It’s 11 pm, the secret service had just notified the president that they had just started an attack on our military in Kuwait. Instead of returning to the White House to move to the War Room below the White House, both President Smith and Vice President Nolan were immediately escorted to waiting helicopters to board Air Force One. Without alerting the media nor to those attending the festivities since the inauguration, the most powerful men in the world suddenly disappear from the public. Ready aboard Air Force One were Secretary of State Eleanor Whitman, General Kane, [The first five star general since Omar Bradley appointed by the previous Administration] Senator Robert Goodwin [Chairman of the Armed Services Committee] and the Secretary General of the United Nations, Sergio Gonzales, some aides and secret service agents Maxwell Goodwin and Lenny Wilson.

For several weeks, the CIA had been reporting that something very big was happening, but couldn’t piece together what, where, and when it would all happen. At 8:00 pm, just 3 hours earlier, the pieces fell into place when the president was informed that an attack was imminent and he summoned the most influential and trusted people to assemble aboard Air Force One.

After takeoff escorted by 5 F-22 A Rapture planes, communications came too fast to count. Then suddenly humanity’s worst fear came true. At precisely 11:05 pm Eastern Standard Time, Mecca was destroyed by an atomic bomb that left more than 2 million dead. In an instant, the entire world was turned into an enclave of terror. Without warning or any attempt to bail out the world into giving up billions to avoid this prelude to Armageddon, an apocalyptic shroud of destruction engulfed the Middle East. Somewhere off the coast of Sir Lanka in the Indian Ocean it was the source of the deadliest attack on humanity since World War II.

TheFind. Two years before:

In the most arid of countries, amid desolation and uninhabitable areas 15 miles south of the border with Uzbekistan in Afghanistan’s Balkh province, noted archaeologist Herman Swartz began unearthing an opening to an entrance to the it seemed to be a cave. Upon further inspection, he revealed that this cave was actually a tomb. A very large sarcophagus was found several meters from the entrance. Thoughts of wonder like King Tutankhamun’s great find gripped this expedition. Who was entombed here and when? Little did Professor Swartz realize that this was the final resting place of someone connected to the last Tsar of Russia. Upon further investigation, both Professor Swartz and assistant Rita Scilion surmised that this grave was over a hundred years old. The decorative markings surrounding the sarcophagus were unmistakably Russian in origin and reveal that for over a hundred years this tomb may well have been the final resting place of someone related to the last member of the Romanoff dynasty. Was it the famous Anastasia who most still believe escaped Bolshevik assassins in 1917? What Professor Swartz found inside the sarcophagus were not the skeletal remains of a girl, but those of an imperial guard and 8 of the most valuable Fabergé eggs. Seeing what was there, suddenly one of the Afghan guides quietly slipped away. Abdol Kartimiz {a Talaban secret agent} who was recommended to Prof. Swartz as a reliable guide. He knew the territory of northern Afghanistan more than anyone. So when Professor Swartz, who originally came here looking for gold, needed a guide who really knew the landscape of northern Afghanistan, he recommended Abdol.

Arriving at Mazar-e Sharif from northern Balkh, Abdol immediately sought out the Talaban leaders who had a team base there to fight the Americans. Among the masses so wretched by all the heroin and opium use, the Talaben leaders gathered to prepare for their next attacks on the weary US forces. On a cold, dark night two days after Professor Swartz’s discovery, Abdol led the Talaban back to Professor Swartz’s camp. Finding only a sentry several yards away from the camp fire, Abdol sneaked up behind Movavon Tablo, an African native of Madagascar, without making a sound, Tablo dropped to his death. Quickly spreading to the two tents, the Talaban members opened fire killing Professor Swartz and all members of his expedition. Beneath Professor Swartz’s body was the chest containing the 8 Fabergé eggs. Before any news about the fate of Professor Swartz’s expedition came to light, the architects of terrorism already had enough collateral in their possession to finance major attacks against the West.

Thus begins “The Last Fabergé`”

Is this a fictional story? Yes! Could events like this happen and become a real scenario? Maybe! Is the United States prepared to prevent an Armageddon-type incident from happening? And are nations willing to cooperate in unison to prevent attacks that produce a global doomsday climate? Sobering events, to say the least. Like last Saturday May 21, 2011, according to some, it was going to be the day Armageddon was supposed to start. Thankfully it didn’t happen, but the real scare is that it could actually happen if nations don’t come together and put differences aside and work together to solve the many crises plaguing all of humanity.

When the president openly encouraged nations to seek democracy while promising assistance to those seeking human rights, it is commendable in theory. There is a much bigger picture to be understood and that is the fact that each nation has its own set of circumstances that must be incorporated into any attempt to help. Failure to meet those contingencies only triggers more dissension and animosity. Another realm of reality is that having a single nation, especially the United States, be the sole owner of aid to struggling democracies, only puts the United States in a position to be the warmonger of the world’s nations. One of the main functions of the United Nations is to provide relief and assistance to nations. The importance of all countries actively supporting the United Nations will ease the burden on any country helping another.

So far, the United States, as the sole provider of assistance, while perceived as the world’s warmonger, only deepens the resentment of many. This only creates more mistrust and disillusionment among the global community. The task at hand for the present Administration is to convince other industrialized nations of the equal and shared responsibility to support those struggling nations, to reach peaceful and meaningful agreements that ultimately lead to more of the world’s population achieve the human rights that everyone should have. it is not an unrealistic goal. But it will only happen when every industrialized nation contributes its equal share of responsibility to help those in need.

To herald an impending man-made catastrophe of epic proportions, the United States can no longer be the sole provider of assistance to any nation that is fighting for more human rights. The task at hand is to relinquish our sole responsibility while convincing the major industrialized nations that only an equally shared combined response will prevail, the chances of entering into global conflicts will be greatly reduced, while the threats posed by terrorism are defeated. poses against humanity.
