Chapter 20 - Season 2: This is the End (Stand Tall Together When It All Crumbles Down)

The dissonance of thunder crackles at the window. A silent breath counts to ten. Balls of lightning hurl to the streets as another earth shaking rumble occurs in the air. The blustering winds haven't let up. The sky still dark and riddled with large unrelenting angry clouds dark colored and filled with rain the scent of damp and earthen heaps with a tinge of a metallic cut fills the air. The buzz of electricity in the air charges the air static clings over everything. 

People rush from the streets still moving despite the heavy rain and the ceaseless thunder. The lightning refuses to yield. The ground is so drenched and the poor people who made it their business to travel in such foul weather clutch their umbrellas and push through the storm hoping they won't be sent flying into a building, or worse, something hard and or heavy will whiz by and they become the next day's statistic.

Ah-Reum with a groan stuck in her throat writhes in bed searching for the warm spot on the bed. Eun-Seong whines pulling into Ah-Reum's arms again seeking the cool touch of her skin and the comforting feel as it warms slowly with the touch of his skin. The two repel flipping over to opposite sides of the bed away from each other, rolling around and their bodies find each others slotting perfectly in place to each other each time.

Their toes touch cold feet rubbing on warm ones gliding up each other's legs and fingers feel supple skin sliding under shirts . Ah-Reum's nose deep in Eun-Seong's conditioned hair the scent of the magnolia, manoi, peach and pear collection she had recently bought.

'Seductive Fox Spirit's Blossom Spirit— To remove one's troubles ' The bottle said.

But small problems only build into bigger ones if not resolved. You can't always brush off the small things and sure enough nothing can simply remove the hassles of the day fully, memory may fail, but emotions will never fail. 

You can feel if you have known something. Deja Vu it seems I have been here before. I feel like I know what is going to happen. I have a bad feeling about this... I am scared. I feel like I saw it in a dream before. Deja Reve.

A once peaceful world has now made themselves known as a hostile environment serves mainly to the detriment of the humans who live on it as they do not benefit, but continue on their path of insanity.

No good can come from betrayal, lies and conspiracy, yet the evil nature of humans seems to lean for the worst of all and then throw itself right over the edge into the abyss of the great beyond.

To change the nature of what one believes of their true self. To refrain a person from getting to know their true self. To deny the right to experiment to understand their truth will only hold them back and give them more questions in the essence of what is the truth of their existence.

The deepest nature of a human needs the feel validated when acknowledged feel the want and see that the evil is good and others will see the same in that evil too, the unsure feeling and dulling of a society compacting it into a religion and or collective that only gives a small amount of people power and defines them as righteous and better than all those around them to define them as more fit.

It is perfect to reject and deny these discoveries in a world built for appeasing the upperclass the ones who feel the need to own power. Without control, they don't own you or your lives.

But it is only a matter of time before they are to erase all that don't fit within the wants of the powerful ones to fit into their desires of control over the world. Keep those around in darkness about the truth inside their own selves to hold it over their heads and keep them living a lie, their true potential scrapped for them to live like a cog in their machine that will drive them to fortune, while you twist your gears until you waste away and are unfortunately no longer fit to serve their needs.

To pass expiry; you no longer useful to their goal to feed their power hungry selves.

DO YOU WISH TO JOIN AND DIE— FOR A RIGHTFUL CAUSE OF COURSE— THESE PEOPLE ARE DIFFERENT AND NOT LIKE US, SO WE MUST FIGHT— KILL THEM, REMOVE THEM, ERASE THEM, FORGET THEM. ENSURE WE ARE THE WINNERS AS WE ARE THE BEST! OF COURSE I MEAN ALL OF WE, WHO ELSE WOULD I TALK ABOUT?

You are sure you not doing this for yourself? How would I know I am not the different one you want to erase? How do I know that I won't be next? I will I justify it? Can I be glad if the same happens to me? Will I have to forget my truth, remove my head and rewire myself to your ideas… But then what? I become nothing more than barcode, an object to be sold, used and discarded… to let your words eat my truth, my wisdom and I become indistinguishable?

Who is going to wish upon themselves to become either just another one who stood in the way or sat down and became an obedient dog who threw away its pride to please an owner who would never love it? Is it worth really doing anything? Will nothing ever change? Is this what will always happen? Why am I here? Why have I been made to suffer at the hands of those who are the same, but different than me? Which words should I believe, what is the truth? When will I be safe and earn my peace?

YOU AREN'T ENTITLED TO THAT. YOU JUST KEEP YOUR HEAD DOWN AND SURVIVE, SURVIVE LIKE THE RATS YOU ARE. BREED AND FEED OUR MACHINE. LET US CONSUME YOU AND DEVOUR YOUR HOPE AND KILL YOUR DEFIANCE. YOU WILL BE IN FINE WORKING ORDER SOON.
