Fall And Rise (FAR away from you)

rise with us, or fall with others

Adrienne told me
"Liah, I don't know if this is good news or bad news for you,
but we signed you up for the test."
I asked her
"why the fuck would that be good news?"
Adrienne hit me hard and said
"You won't talk like that here and we'll start from there!"
my nose started to bleed, and Adrienne brought me a tissue to wipe it off, she said
"within 2 hours, we will test the first antidote of our medicine on you"
they directed me to my room, unlocked it with a card, the door opened quite slowly, and finally I got in. I walked around the room, very happy and excited, because I will remember him again, what was his name... DANIEL, yes!"I started to dance and squeal with happiness,but it's just a test that's being done on me, who knows what the consequences are, maybe it won't work... I'm afraid...
when I said out loud that I was afraid, I remembered Lilith!
But a sentence
"if you are not afraid, you are not human"
it doesn't make sense to me
if fear is the definition of human, then I don't want to be afraid anymore, in fact, I don't want to be human anymore. So I won't, from today, from now on, I rise from the ashes, as if dead, and new, Liah Ash will solve this mess with zero percent humanity, without FEAR!

After an hour, the security guards, a journalist, a cameraman, and Adrienne started entering my room...
I was so confused!
Adrienne told me
"in 10 minutes we will open Live screen,it will be broadcast all over our refugee people and nation... Liah honey, you will witness the first greatest medicine ever, they are opening a new big screen in the market where every detail will be published from now on!"
the journalist came to her and told her
"President Jadis Adrienne, I can't believe I'm watching you live and witnessing your miracle!! I'm glad, I'm..."
Adrienne told her
"I know I know, thank you, do your job and refrain, I don't care who you are, do your job properly, I want this to be a discovery and the beginning of a new era, us refugees!!!"

I looked at Ms. Adrienne and asked
"President?"
she told me
"I see you have no idea about us"
we're leaving in no time,
the countdown started, Adrienne was the first frame, she had her text, which was pre-recorded in the conference room, that will be played first, and then the frame will switch to me live from the hospital room.
very loud music and the introduction to the live broadcast started!
on the screen, along with the introduction, there was first a picture of the refugees' coat of arms, black and gold. and then everything went quiet and Adrienne started to give her speech.

"Good evening, to every citizen of this nation, to us so-called refugees! Refugees together forever, repeat with me!" the whole nation on the live broadcast, I saw on the frame, they shouted "refugees together forever" Adrienne took the slogan from me and Luca, she must have heard us when we said  it then in the room, every citizen, stood in front of a big TV in the middle of the city, and shouted "refugees together forever" at one point cameraman pointed at Luca, they found him in the public, pushing through the audience and shouting "NO, what are you doing, how? Who told you? man stop!!" I don't understand, how does he remember that sentences?! I was so mad at Adrienne for taking our word for it and using it for her own purposes....
she continued her speech
"from now on, we will have important news on this main screen that you are all watching, the 'NEWS' alarm will sound 10 minutes before it starts, so that you all gather and arrive on time to listen!!! this is our new project, but not  the only one!"
people in the audience in front of the screen started to look at each other and wonder, but they were very happy, Adrienne continued to speak
"our new project! it started spontaneously, and it was called Ash, we refugees from the ashes will rise and other nations will fall, forget to love, we will make the biggest army in the world, and we will appropriate every part of this planet, this world!! let me ask you, what is it that prevents a human from doing things, what is it that destroys a human most?"

the audience started shouting their own answeres, but Adrienne helped them and said
"love"
"are you struggling, only love hurts you, do you love your mother and father, brothers and sisters, children, friends, soulmates, yourself? You will not be able to sacrifice yourself for your people, who must start expanding and attacking from today! that's why you will be forced to choose between your people and love, you will either rise with us, or fall with others! it is not so hard, bit it is long way, FAR way!

I said, this is nonsense, I don't want to be the face of this, people will hate me, I don't support this!!
the journalist said
"listen, don't go anywhere now, do what you're told!"
I told her
"you're doing it for money, girl, I have nothing to do with this! shut up and let me go"
I started to get up, but the journalist knew that her whole job would fail if she let me go, so she pulled my hand to come back and asked me not to go, I hit her and told her not to touch me, from now on, the whole my identity was stolen, THE PROJECT IS EVEN CALLED ASH!
you haven't even heard the best part yet
Adrienne continued her speech with her head held high
"We tested the first dose of this project's medicine on a volunteer, whom we will visit today in the hospital"

and let's go, I sat back down because a second before, masked idiots put a gun to my head. the journalist started with her stupid questions
"Hi everyone, its Darcie Shee, famous presenter, news reporter!! tonight I have a beautiful young lady with me whose name is..." hahaha why the provocations? I laughed at her sarcastically, before the camera pointed at me I licked my hand, and when we were both in the frame I said "Liah Ash!" and offered her a hand out of respect, of course she couldn't refuse in front of the cameras, she would have turned out to be a bitch! "Liah Nash, why did you volunteer to be tested? Do you think you're worthless?" provoking again, I have to come up with something to please the audience, and embarrass Darcie, I said
"just the opposite, I volunteer for my people, while you lie to them!" I blew a kiss to everyone in the audience and said "I've been tested, and I'll tell you that life without love looks like raw survival to me, everything is gray, that's why today, they will try to cancel it, with their antidote, Daniel, I don't really know you, but I miss you!" the masked quickly threw the cameras on the floor, they turned off, people in the audience loved me for my honesty, and I was taken out and beaten on the floor.

cameras back to Adrienne, in the room where I was left beaten I had a small screen, in every room we have, they continued the live broadcast...
Adrienne spoke
"that's right, thank you Liah, for introducing our antidote, which we will test on you, and I hope it won't work" she winked and said
"bring her"
then the cameras recorded the audience in the city, everyone was yelling at each other, shouting not to test on me, the audience loved me!! but too late, they came for me, and took me to the room where Adrienne had also came.
"testing room, welcome!"
"this antidote, it is named after one key ingredient, which is a star-shaped flower, I present to you the STELLATAA antidote!"
WHAT IS THIS? HOW? this is not happening, I started screaming and yelling for help, the audience started running towards the prison where I was arrested, people wanted to help me... how did Adrienne know my last name is Stellata? or maybe not? maybe this is a coincidence?

beaten, everything hurts, the people on the camera see that they tortured me here, they are looking for justice for me, I just want to know if Luca and Cora are okay!? at first I liked the idea of ​​it being tested on me, eventually I will remember everything, but the consequences? i mean this woman obviously has no good plans for me!! I need help, that's what I said, I was lying tied to the bed and with my mouth tied, Adrienne said "guys, she signed up for this herself" I nodded because she's not right, I'm forced...
She said "we knew that she would change her mind at the last minute, people often make decisions that they later want to change, but she must be responsible for what she decided, I will certainly not be responsible for her actions and decisions!" she laughed and started towards me with the needle, somehow I managed to remove the bandage with my mouth, but only the one from my mouth, and I started to scream "NO..." but she had already injected me, I was very afraid and repeated to myself that this is a human feeling , and that in the end something good always comes after it, after every rain comes the sun, right? I said quietly before falling asleep completely
"please, have mercy and I will have mercy on you when the time comes"

the cameras turned off, everything was silent, for a few seconds, everyone was standing in such silence, and then they started fighting and trying to attack the building where I was, there were so many of them and then they came out masked with weapons, fast weapons , and they started shooting, many died there, I just hoped that Luca, Cora, and the others had moved away! that's the last thing I heard until I was completely dazed.
