The never ending purge

Show Of Song

So, the Show of song is what they call it... fun... Lana is an interesting figure... her sister means something to her... she's gone through too much... she doesn't deserve that pain...

Adelia stands next to me? We walk along the paths, blaring lights, cobble paths, everything you could imagine... I see Jesse walking with a Co-Elite, the people who are below Elites yet above trainees, my brain wanders back to Lana, and the pain she went through, maybe that's why Danny feels the need to protect her so much? I definently want to protect her, I WILL protect her.

We arrived in the colleseum where Lana stands in the centre, she looks sad, traumatised... maybe her sister couldn't hang on...

We take our seats, I stare down at Lana with concern, the crows rustles loudly, up on a large throne near the top of the colleseum sits a man in all black, staring down at her emotionless, is that the person Jesse was talking about? The Destian?

Music starts playing, orchestra, a beautiful musical

"The blood moon stands till he dies~"
"The governor shall fall to his tribe~"
"Our quest, to defeat him~"
"And save, the land~"

So that's their quest? To kill the governor? Why?

Oh...

*realisation washes over me, these people aren't just truing to survive... they're saving the world...*

"If we fall, he falls~"
"If we die, he dies~"
"If our lives~ will break~"
"So will his~"

I feel a sudden wash of gratefulness... my eyes flicker between sadness and happiness, as though my brain can't decide... suddenly, an explosion could be heard at the front gate, The Destian stood and shouted

"Guards! Go check that out immediately!"

Adelia stands, looking scared and panicked "no no no no no no" I hug her and try to calm her, Lana stops singing, she stands in the center of the colleseum, confused, Danny jumped from the crowd to infront of Lana, "stay behind me m'lady!" He shouted

The only question I had was... what happened?
