Basically, Canada is taken captive by Russia. I basically have no preferences--Human names are fine, but no genderbend. Base it on the picture and song. Thanks!

So big Breaking Benjamin fan is intrigued and has set out to fill this. I should be posting the first part soon. I note the title had more of a sexual theme to it, but the song and picture aren't necessarily about that. So I hope it's okay, if I decided to take it more in the direction of a dark thriller. It seemed to work better for me. I've already got references to both picture and song worked in.

Warning: This is a thriller with dark overtones. Don't look for love or fluff here. There is some description of violence, and some language. - Characters are human but playing on the larger political field. Historical Alternate Universe.
We’re all in, so begin. Just remember, I win. - ‘No Games’ from the album Saturate by Breaking Benjamin
United Soviet Socialist Republic of Russia - Moscow - the early-1980's (Before the Fall of the Wall) A little pigeon tilted its head to the side as it watched a young man foolishly trying to duck and dodge among the cars and people in the heart of Russia. It came to land on a corner of a building. It watched as he came upon a knot in the crowd

Author anon noticed spell checker was wee bit too helpful. Location should read Union of Soviet Socialist Republics - Moscow, Russia I will try harder to catch that stuff in following chapters. (Argh! I did have someone beta-read this for me before I even posted it too!)

Quick Author Notes before continuing.
1. In this story the characters are not anthropormorphized characterizations of their nations and culture. Characters are human and thus can hold positions within their respective governments and subsequently are acknowledged by the rest of us. That being said, I did try to keep their canon personalities.
2. Story request strongly influenced by Breaking Benjamin's "Dance with the Devil". Quite a few of their songs have similar sort of theme. So I had their other albums on in the background as I wrote this to help me get the atmosphere just right. Of course, dear readers, you aren't going to hear that since text-based stories don't come with a soundtrack, so I decided to include snippets of the lyrics at the beginning of each chapter, so you, dear readers, could have a similar experience. They are not integral to the story, so if you don't like it, skip them. If you do, then please enjoy. :)
(Curious about the music? Breaking Benjamin's style is hard rock, and some of their popular

“Rain” from the album ‘We Are Not Alone’ by Breaking Benjamin The young man continued to follow the flow of the crowd, slowing inching his way over toward the inner part of the street as he dodged people coming the other way. Though his head barely moved, his eyes constantly roved the street in front of him. He was searching for the just the right building

Now the dark begins to rise Save your breath, it's far from over Leave the lost and dead behind Now's your chance to run for cover
“I Will Not Bow” from the album ‘Dear Agony’ by Breaking Benjamin The young man stumbled through at the door's sudden give. As he fell to his hands and knees on the gravel rooftop, the woolen cap fell off his head, releasing his blonde locks to cascade about his shoulders. He grimaced in discomfort as he pressed his hands into the gravel harder to push himself up to his feet

He fumed at the request. 'Nature of my emergency?! Hello?! How about I should have been back there 10 hours ago, but I'm still stuck here in enemy territory with that devil and his hellhounds baying at my heels? And don't you think you should have noticed that you left me here!’
Instead he answered, "I need a new exit strategy. Stop."

I'm really happy that you are liking this and are excited about it. I hope the ending will still meet your expectations. I kind of took your request and ran off with it, so I'm glad you don't mind. Don't worry-you won't have to wait for long. I'll have the rest of the sections posted before the end of the day.

“What Lies Beneath” from the album ‘Dear Agony’ by Breaking Benjamin
'Damn.' he thought as he looked out over the roof seeing the distant stormy skies. 'That's just what I don't need, water-logged and ruined equipment.'
He turned toward the door, moving to stand when a razor-thin strip of shadow broke off, with a faint hiss of steel to rest against the pulse in his throat.

Cold light above us Hope fills the heart And fades away Skin white as winter As the sky returns to grey -“Anthem of Angels” from the album ‘Dear Agony’ by Breaking Benjamin
Matthew caught the flashes of platinum blond hair gone gray in the fading light, like the beige woolen jacket that he currently wore. The tall Russian however wore an elegant woolen duster dyed a violet that in darkening sky had turned the midnight shade of the fruit of an eggplant. One end of the winter white scarf he wore hung loose near Matthew’s hand. Matthew willed him to move just a little closer, His left hand slowly moved closer, the fringe nearly in reach of his fingertips now, but the other man found the little double-action, semi-automatic pistol from Matthew's shoulder holster right at that moment too.
"Ah, ah, aah," his captor clucked disapprovingly. Easily sliding it out of the holster, he rapped the butt of the gun hard against the knuckles of Matthew’s hand as Matthew made a last-ditch grab for the rogue end of the scarf
