My eyes were clenched together tightly hoping that the pressure behind them would disappear, as if that would get rid of my problems. Speaking of problems; my grandma is following me on Twitter, I dropped my cupcake this morning, I lost my keys-twice, my car broke down, my friends have abandoned me, the corpse that I now call my body feels as though it was hit by a train, my hair is a wild mess, I haven't eaten properly in days, and sweet starts to pool through my shirt. Beside me, the love of my life is handcuffed, whispering words of reassurance. Blindfolds over our eyes blocking out the horrors that we can only imagine. I grind my teeth as the far too familiar feeling of a cold metal gun presses to the back of my neck.

"Those aliens are not my concern, the Earth and her populations are. Now, Callisto of the Scout Regiment to Salutem, as a citizen of this planet and a soldier under my command-" "I stopped being a soldier a long time ago. And those aliens have done nothing to you, you didn't even know they existed until I told you about them. I joined this mission not because I was ordered to, but because I wanted to carve my name in history. But I will not mark my namesake as a murderer of the very first species we have found that is on par with human intelligence! If my legacy is to be the protector of those you refuse to acknowledge, then so be it." The room hissed and flowed with whispers and gossip between the different board members, like a waterfall being heard through thick earmuffs. The only voice to be clearly heard was Director Striker himself. "You are rooting for a lost cause, soldier. It is the manifest destiny of us humans to reach out and touch the stars. And if the only way to touch those stars is to sacrifice a few savages, then that is what we must do." Callisto felt her anger towards a man she once admired swell in her chest and wash through her veins with a burning fire. He was proposing mass genocide simply because he wanted what belonged to them. The wheel of history turns, but nothing is ever new it seemed. "Have you read a history book in your life, Director Striker? Manifest destiny is used a mere few pages before a genocide. It's not a motivation, it's an excuse." ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Fair warning: this is my very first original story so please be kind to my baby, she is a lifelong passion and a labor of love. •••COMPLETED••• •Please do not copy or post anywhere outside of these pages.
