Day 15 - Create a character who is falsely accused of a crime.
(1/2 WAY POINT!)
-
They always go after the ones they cannot clone. If you dare to be somewhat different, to call out the people around you; don't. Stop right there, do not call those people around you, because when you do: they will come for you; and they are ruthless.
My name is irrelevant; but if you must know, I was born with the name Lennon Maxwell. After 22 years of life, and 4 of them spent in prison, I've learned no one actually cares. Prision at 22, you must be thinking I'm the worst person; to be so young and be in such trouble.
What did I do? That's the kicker: nothing.
In 20 years you'll see how screwed up the government system is, I was put in a "specialty prison" also known as a mental prison - not a hospital. Those are just for the crazy, mental prisons started in 2300, when the government decided whoever dared to be different would be imprisioned; trapped with their thoughts, stuck with no way to share them.
At 18 they take you to a pitch black room, stick you to a machine and ask you one question:
Do you dare?
What's the right answer? "No."
But sitting in the pitch black, I did the stupidest and yet still the smartest thing of my life. I challenged the government with one word: "Yes."
That one word would be the downfall of the entire system.
