The True Rulers of the World

Little Greta had just fallen asleep in her tiny bed. Apart from Greta, the bed was full of all kinds of cuddly teddy bears -- or so she thought. At midnight the largest of the teddy bears started to move. It headed into the middle of Greta's room and started murmuring four foreign words again and again. Greta did not hear a thing, nor did the millions of other children on Earth. But teddy bears all over the world heard it and started teleporting to the place where the large teddy bear in Greta's room had told them: The White House. From the murmuring to the teleporting, no more than five minutes passed. Soon all teddy bears in the world had surrounded the White House. The smallest one was one inch tall, and the tallest one - the leader - was seven feet. There were about 3 billion teddy bears, and they took up all the space in Washington D.C. Those who noticed the teddy bears either thought that it was some sort of campaign or that they themselves were seriously stressed. Senator Goodwill was the only one in the city that knew this was serious. He also knew that if he told the president he would be either sacked instantly or driven to a mental hospital. "Mr. President, 3 billion teddy bears have surrounded the White House and are probably going to attack us." That would not sound especially intelligent. Knowing this, he set off to his office, where he called the military. He had to try to evacuate an amount of people to a secret place to keep the human race from complete extermination. However, his efforts were no use. The teddy bear leader had just declared himself President of the United States, while his fellow teddy bears had begun to take over the rest of the world. The human race was doomed.
