Over Thrown

          A lot happened since my last post. It all started the day after I got caught. I was brought bound before Quentin and the majority of his little community. This was the first time I really saw how many there were.  There had to be a strong 240 people. He asked his crony what I was accused of, and Dolph told him that  I was making an illegal communication to the outside. Quentin looked at me and said, "well, well, well, you just couldn't listen Mr. high and mighty." I responded, " people need to know there's still hope. This is a time to come together. It's a time for mercy, not this sick game you play." I turned to the people and asked them " Do you really want to follow this man? He has oppressed you, taken your freedom, and your rights." but before I could continue my speech I Dolph punched me in the gut silencing me, and dropping me to the ground. Quentin said, "for your insolence, you will be set to the maximum trial we shall unleash waves of five slack jaws until either you are consumed, or we run out at which time we will gather more and begin again the next day. There was an uproar the people knew this was an injustice, but all he had to do was yell "silence!" and they were quiet. He really has a grasp on their fear.

           The next day I was led to the door where I was sure I would meet my doom. The guards where giving me advice on how to survive, but then Grace and Oliver approached and the guards were silent. One slipped me a small knife. I could tell the guard was a woman even though the uniforms they wore really made here look masculine. I could tell from her hands they were so small and had painted nails they were an emerald green, with a smiley face on the thumb. She pulled down the scarf that covered he face and said this will buy you a little time just hold out for a ten minutes. something was familiar about this girl, but I couldn't place her. Most of her face was covered by her sunglasses and head piece. They opened the door and pushed me in. I was standing facing five hungry psychs. They were chained to a pole next to Quentin's chair, which was more like a throne. He made sure the rest of my group had front row seats to the show. He said " For your crimes you face this punishment, have you any last words?" I responded "Yeah, screw you!" without another word the psychs were released and the adrenalin was pumping.

           The first psych lunged at me and I instantly landed my knife in it's left temples. It fell to the ground, but the second was already at me. I Sparta kicked it into the third and stabbed the fourth throwing him into the second and third. The fifth tried biting biting me but i dodged and he slammed into the wall. He must have been turned a while back because his inertia splattered his skull like a rotten orange. The remaining three were tangled on the floor, giving me the chance I needed to run to the other side and get the weapon they place for me it was just a metal pipe. The moment I Grabbed the weapon my father began cheering. Grace tried to silence him by hitting him, but he grabbed he bat, broke it over his knee and said," If you try to stop me from cheering for my son again I break your neck like this bat." He then threw the bat to the ground and glared at Quentin, who waved off Grace. Just then the second psych came after me. I cracked it's skull wide open. I then ran full force at the remaining two. I rammed them both into the wall stabbing one in the left eye, and the other got the pipe in the frontal lobe.

         I yelled to the crowd," Are you not entertained?" this got everyone cheering. This also angered Quentin who said, "Double the next wave". Everyone gasped and began booing an d protesting this blatant disregard of the rules. This gave me the opportunity I needed to win them over. I said, "This is the proof that his rule are arbitrary and self serving. Her does not rule you to bring order, but rather to build his ego. Overthrow him. No one elected him. this is still America. TAKE BACK YOUR FREEDOM!!! Just then Ten psych were released from the other door. I had a hard time fighting them all off i killed about six of them but i was being over run suddenly out burst the guard that gave me the knife now she's wearing a tank top and jeans. Shes still wearing the scarf and sunglasses. She gets two of them off of me. However, Quentin sends in ten more. The two of us are surrounded, and back to back. I ask what took so long, and she promises to explain if we survive. Just then I notice a riot Quentin and his sadist are being chased out and my dad jumps down to help us fight. With the three of us we make quick work of the slack jaws.

        After we get out of the game room we go to an office and chat. My group, and the mystery girl. She takes off her sunglasses to reveal Emerald green eyes. I immediately recognize her. I say "Evelyn".  She ask if we've met before, and I tell her the whole story about how she ran into me on the bike path and i only saw her eyes, and how a mutual friend old me her name. I can see her smile under the scarf as she unwraps it from her face revealing a freckly nose, and a cute grin. She then takes of her head piece to reveal deep red wavy hair. She utterly beautiful. She says she's glad to officially meet me. She explains she joined the guard because she knew eventually one would be sent to the game that would be able to rally the people against Quentin. When she saw my trial, she knew I was the one for the job. That is why she delayed in helping me. she wanted to give me a chance to get the people cheering for me. She immediately apologized for not telling me more sooner, but she had no chance to talk to me long enough. She told me it was now my time to help these people.

       So, today I addressed them I told them that I would be devoting as much time as possible to finding a cure. I made a new guard, out of the most honest people I could find. I also assembled a team of people to aid me in my research. We also returned everyone's belongings we told them to contact as many people as we could. we have enough room and supplies here for hundreds more people. We also formed supply teams these were the people that would go get food and such from the surrounding area. We have the seedlings of a great community starting. I look forward to a bright future.
