The Revolution or the End?

         After months of heavy planning, everything was in place for the rebellion to start full force. We had gained support from the majority of the Untouchables across the country, and even the lower class citizens had joined the rebellion. Already, riots were starting in the country, especially in the lower island cities like Otago and Dunedin. Our food robbing raids had been a great help to stock up on food, and now we had great supplies of food and sources to aid us in the weeks to come. Little by little, the rebellion was starting.

          We took South City first. It was a bloody battle against the United Forces, but they weren't expecting us to be so fierce, and that gave us the advantage. All the while my only thought was of bringing justice to the innocent people of Zelanda, and of avenging my brother's death, and in a way, also my own. The Frodo Lachlan I was now was no longer the Frodo Lachlan I had been months ago. As the rebellion spread so did the violence, and soon we had a handful of cities under our control.

          As successful as the rebellion seemed to be going, I knew it was only a matter of time before Tiberius Caesar did his move, and if we didn't act fast, then it would all be for nothing. We needed to get the rest of the population on our side, to let them know the lies the Government was brainwashing them with. So we hijacked the communications system and aired the truth one evening during one of Kimmono Kardinski's shows. The uproar was incredible, but the Government shut down the intermission way too fast, and managed to convince a great number of people that the rebels were trying to fool them and separate them from their loyal Government. Even so, I know we managed to get through to some people.

         That was two weeks ago. Right now, living in Zelanda is hell on Earth. Bombs shower the streets, there are corpses of the dead everywhere, and the surveillance of the Government has only gotten worse. My fear is that all our hard work  will be wasted, and that PAPÆ will remain victorious in the end. I know my life is always in danger, and it is even more now that the Government has recognized me as one of the rebel's leaders. Oh no, I hear footsteps coming from the hallway, and I know they do not belong to my comrades. They are coming for me, my time has come. My only regret in life is that I could never come out of the closet and tell Kimmono Kardinski how much I loved-
