Something new!

Keefe's POV 👌✨

The gasps and screams of horror bounced through my head as I watched in horror as the huge bars blocked families from exiting the cage. Children were screaming, babies were crying, mothers and fathers holding onto them tightly, terrified expressions written across their faces.

My mother had done that. I was related to a monster.

As I was staring at my mothers sickening grin I watched as her face shifted to confusion and shock as my beautiful girlfriend lifted on to the platform as 6 dwarves popped out of the ground and tackled the neverseen members to the ground. Sophie looked around nervously and then stepped closer to the microphone. She then put on a fake smile with her pearly whites. Then I watched as her gaze softened in the slightest, she had taken my advice.

"Hello, I'm Sophie foster." She was still smiling, then I saw a flask of determination flash in her eyes. And then she continued with a more relaxed and smooth tone.
"And I'm the Moonlark. I was raised in California! Yes, a forbidden city. My home was small in comparison too all the fancy Elvin stuff here but it was home none of the less. I had a happy family that loved me even though I was different." Her eyes glistened with tears before she blinked them back. "My dad used to call me soybean, and my mom used to comfort me after a hard day, my sister was the typical annoying little sister that I loved so much. They're here today I believe. Then her eyes locked onto something in the cage. I followed her gaze and and spotted her human family screaming Sophie's name.

"SOPHIEE"

"SOPHIE WE REMEMBER"

I watched as she averted her gaze away, trying not to tear up.

"Then I came to the forbidden cities  and found out that I was really an elf. Leaving my human family was one of the hardest things I've ever done. But I think I finally understand why the black swan put me through all of that."

She took a deep breath.

"I see the flaws. The flaws of the so called perfect world. Talentless, matchmaking, forbidden abilities, scorn of multiple siblings, and those are just a few! And you scorn the humans for the same mistakes! You named them unintelligent! And now you cage them! You cage their cultures, their children, their lives! You did this because of what? They rebelled against you? Well I will let you in on a little secret I discovered! All those years ago Vespera was capturing humans taking them from their homes and torturing them through experiments. The humans asked the council to investigate and they did NOTHING! NOTHING AT ALL!"

"This is not the script." Forkle mumbled from behind me.

"THEY DID NOTHING. And then they hid themselves ignoring humans existence for all these years. And those of you who aren't elvish know  the flaws of the system surrounding control of this world. You can see that the council is failing. It just isn't working anymore!" She gestured to the caged humans. "This is proof of that." Her voice cracked. Then she did something unexpected she lifted her hands up and lifted those very heavy bars right out of the ground putting them back were they came from with ease. Her eyes glowed gold like the flecks in her eyes. She snapped back to the present and continued speaking.

"This world isn't perfect. And while the neverseen are evil, Their motives aren't entirely wrong. This world needs a lot of change. The system is failing, it may have worked in the past, but now is the present, and in the present, it's crumbling. So In order to have control in the future, we need to push through. Molding the crumbled pieces back into something new. Something that works."

"And with that I propose that something new, a new council, one of each species. And that includes the humans, speaking of humans, the human assistance programs should be rebuilt. We share this planet, and if we want to keep it from crumbling we have to build it together."

Then everything came crashing down.
