Kerlian Re-education Camp, Yesterday
"Why cabbage?" asked Jessica, the computer expert, as she slid onto the table next to Leonie and Caroline. She was followed by Rosa, who had been captured in southern Yervia attempting to deliver information to the Usera resistance from Elopolis. Rosa had a bruise on her face from when she'd really angered the Kerlian running her "˜sessions'.
"Makes me gag, don't know why. I'd rather starve than eat the stuff," Leonie shrugged. Her stomach rumbled as if in argument, but she was determined not to let the Kerlians see how much she wanted to snatch the apple out of Helena's traitorious hands at the other side of the room.
"Funny, I feel the same way about anchovies," Rosa said, plonking a bowl of them on the table.
"Two words: blue cheese," Jessica added, pushing her bowl up against Caroline's and Leonie's, which were in the middle of the table untouched.
"I am so hungry," complained Rosa, "that when I woke up, I kind of thought Myriam looked a bit tasty."
"Is this a kink thing or are you going to turn to cannibalism?" teased Caroline.
"Ewww, gross," Leonie wrinkled her nose. "Myriam can't help what she is."
"No, but your old pal Helena could," Jessica said, looking in their direction.
"She's just..." Leonie struggled to think of something to say, while resisting the urge to pour Rosa's anchovies into her mouth. They didn't disgust her nearly so much. But Elena Ibáñez had tried something similar the previous day. Elena Ibáñez had vanished. According to Myriam, Elena had been sent to the "restricted region". Leonie didn't want to know what that was.
"A traitor," Caroline finished. She was not very forgiving. "When we get out of here, we're not taking her."
"I doubt that will be our choice," Leonie said.
"Not if I have anything to say about it," Caroline said, lowering her voice. The other three leaned in closer.
"You have a plan?" Jessica asked.
"Today and yesterday, they took us all for the goddamned "˜sessions' at the same time, right? If that pattern continues, I think I can figure out a way that we can use it to escape."
"How?" Leonie asked.
"Not sure yet, give me three days and I'll either have something or let you know. You'll need to hold on until then. Can you do that?"
Leonie and Jessica both nodded. Rosa was staring at Leonie's cabbage with a wistful look. Jessica jabbed her in the ribs. The sight of it made Leonie's gunshot wound sting, it had been doing that since she stopped eating. She bit her tongue.
"Yeah, yeah I can," Rosa said, unconvincingly.
Elopolis, Today
Jae Chung hated computers. She never used to feel that way, but after so many days of watching the Resistance's computer people try and crack the encryption on the USB that she'd spent several months trying to deliver, she'd come around to that way of thinking.
"Are you sure there's anything on there?" she asked, exasperated.
"Yep, and something big, judging by how well it's protected," one of the guys answered after an excessively long pause.
"I am going for a walk," Jae said. She waited a few moments for an acknowledgement that never came, and then left. Since the agreement of peace talks, Elopolis had started to once more function in the manner of a normal city. The streets were filled with civilians out doing shopping and nothing in particular, rather than hiding in their houses.
A group of schoolchildren in uniforms ran across the path in front of her, giggling, which startled her. She'd forgotten schools should be going back this week. Seeing such a normal sight warmed her heart, while also making her even sadder. She wondered if such scenes would be happening in Gonhogian-occupied Annatown. Her home had never seemed so far away.
She walked south from the university, where they had commandeered a section of the computer science department. As she passed over the railway bridge, a train passed underneath. They were running again, so long as you didn't want to cross the lines. She could have boarded a train to Carville or Summersea as easily as in any other year, but her hometown was about as accessible to her as Grapevale, Kerlile.
She stood on the railway bridge, looking down the tracks eastward, towards where the Junta troops would still be lined up. They were far too many miles away to see, but even just knowing they were that much further down that direction gave Jae a sense of foreboding. She turned away.
Jae Chung's life hadn't been particularly easy. She'd lost her mother when she was young, and when she was only a little older her brother had started dealing drugs and drifted away from the family. She was used to loss, but as she walked through the streets of Elopolis she saw so many people mourning on a terrible scale.
She passed an elderly woman with two young children clutched to her, both crying and all dressed in black. They placed flowers at a spot on the road that seemed unremarkable, but Jae knew had been the scene of a small battle between some Junta holdouts when the Resistance took over the city.
Elopolis had fallen quickly and with a lot less death than many of the other cities. Jae didn't want to think about the others, especially her own.
"This is so messed up," she said to nobody in particular. "How did this even happen?"
Summersea
Felipe Moore looked at himself in the mirror, to check once more that he was alive. It was odd hearing the propaganda proclaiming his death. He'd always been the sort who tended to trust official broadcasts, and so hearing such obviously false statements created a sort of cognitive dissonance he was struggling to reconcile.
He picked up the phone once more. He put it down. He picked it up. He put it down.
Why was this so hard!? All he had to do was call his wife. He'd done it countless times before. And yet, he hadn't spoken to her in over three months. She probably believed him dead. He'd wanted to call her as soon as he'd found out she was in Elopolis. The Coalition had warned him against a trap. And now, with her location confirmed and peace on the horizon, he couldn't dial the number.
He picked up the phone. He forced himself to dial the number he'd been given. The line rang out.
"Hello?" came Laura's voice on the other end of the line. Felipe froze. "Hello?"
"H... hi Laura."
Silence.
"Laura?"
"No. No, this is a sick game, Clarke!"
"It's me, Laura, it's not a trick."
"My husband is dead, you snot-haired worm. I'll go to Sanctaria and talk to you because I'm a civilised human, unlike you, but if you keep playing these games..."
"Our children's names are Kelli and Jamey, which we already knew from the first time we met, because we both knew we wanted two kids, a boy and a girl, and we didn't want their names spelt some common way. I walked you to the top of the hill overlooking Buttercity, and you told me that I was the first man you met who cared more for nature than trying to impress a girl, and it was that which impressed you."
"You're dead," Laura whispered.
"We went back to that spot a little over a year later, when the sky was clear and we could see all the stars at night. I brought a bottle of rosé wine and two glasses, even though drinking in the woods is illegal and you were never one for breaking the law. And as the clock struck midnight I pulled out a ring..."
"Oh my god you're alive."
"... and I placed it on your finger and I looked into your eyes, but before I could speak, you brought out your own ring and asked me the same question I planned to ask you. And we both said "˜yes' at the same time and kissed for such a long time I don't know how we didn't both die of oxygen deprivation."
"Felipe, you're alive! Oh my god, you're alive! Oh Felipe, I... where are you? What happened? Why did Chaher say you were dead?"
"I'm in Summersea, have been this whole time. I don't know why they said that, it's been really weird to hear. I couldn't contact you, you'd vanished off the grid for so long..."
"Come to Elopolis! Please, I want to see you!"
"I will, if it's safe, I will."
"I love you, Felipe. And I am so, so sorry."
"I love you too. And what have you to be sorry for?"
"This! This would never have happened if..."
"If you'd let him win? If you'd let him treat this country as his own little playground with the population as his toys? You stood up for democracy. Never be sorry about that."
"I love you."
"I love you, too."
Kerlian Re-education Camp, Today
Leonie Bennett's stomach growled so loud she was impressed the Kerlian next to her didn't cover her ears.
"Would you like to vote on who is the most anti-Kerlile inmate, Ms Bennett?" the woman asked. Leonie still didn't know her name. After the fourth day of endless, repetitive tasks, and no food, Leonie was struggling.
Caroline, she thought. Caroline's planning to escape. It's Caroline, Caroline, Caroline...
"N-no," she forced out.
"Are you quite sure? As a woman, you must know that standing up for the enemies of Kerlile only disadvantages you."
Why are you resisting this? A voice in Leonie's head said. Just tell them. It's Caroline, Caroline, Caroline...
"I... won't," Leonie said.
"I'm going to give you one more chance, Ms Bennett. Are you certain?"
No, you can't give them a name. You can't.
Wait, why? Why can't I?
I don't remember... they're bad, right?
Kerlile is a haven for women, who are oppressed in all other countries. So, they can't be bad? Wait, no, that statement goes in the "˜true' pile but it... isn't?
That doesn't make sense. Why am I resisting them if they only want to help?
No, that's not true. It's not, it's all a trick... they trick you. Resist, Leonie, resist it.
Why should I?
I don't remember! I don't remember!
Just tell them: it's Caroline.
No! I can't. Even if I don't remember why, I can't! I won't, I won't, I won't!
Leonie snapped out of her argument with herself.
"I won't! I won't, I won't, I won't," Leonie cried out, collapsing to the ground and sobbing, when a smell made her turn around. A Kerlian was holding, just out of reach, a slice of cake. Leonie lunged towards the cake, to find herself restrained.
"You can have it, all I need is the name of who you believe to be the most anti-Kerlian inmate."
CAROLINE! Leonie's inner voice screamed. Caroline, Caroline, Caroline! Just TELL them!
"No!" Leonie yelled while she still could. She shut her eyes and let out a scream of anguish. She sobbed, and when the hands holding her vanished, she collapsed in a heap in the floor. She was so hungry. She just wanted it to be over. But she couldn't tell them.
"Up!" commanded a Kerlian, pulling Leonie to her feet. Still sobbing, and in a bit of a daze, Leonie half-walked and was half-pushed back to the canteen. She was handed another bowl of cabbage that she even considered eating. But it wasn't just a question of her intense dislike, it was a question of resistance. And she would not eat what they gave her.
She collapsed next to her normal table and curled up in a ball on the floor, sobbing. Caroline and Jessica were already there.
"Hey, you okay?" Caroline asked. Leonie just sobbed.
"Still cabbage," Jessica commented.
"Not broken then," Caroline responded. Neither comment was addressed to Leonie. Caroline got up and knelt down beside Leonie. "Not much longer, hey? You're strong, L. You can do this, okay? Come sit up at the table."
Caroline spoke in the manner one might to a small, upset child. Leonie felt too weak to argue about it. She let Caroline give her a hand up and sat down on the bench alongside her. She leaned forward onto her arms.
"Hey, there's Rosa," said Jessica. Leonie didn't look up.
"Why's Rosa going to sit... oh hell," Caroline said sharply. Leonie still didn't move. She was so, so hungry. She heard Caroline leave the table and stamp over to Myriam and Helena's usual table.
"Rosa!? What did you do?" Caroline's voice echoed across the entire room. All conversations fell silent. Rosa spoke quietly but Leonie still heard.
"I'm sorry, I couldn't keep it up any longer. I'm sorry."
"Traitor," Caroline spat at Rosa and then turned and stormed back to sit by Leonie.
"What happened?" Leonie mumbled.
"Bitch gave them a name. Has some fancy meal over there at the zombie drone table. She's lost."
"Can't she look at a map?"
"Jesus, you're really out of it. You should probably eat some of the cabbage, if you can bear it."
"Won't."
"I get the defiance, I do, but if you go and give them a name tomorrow that's worse than breaking the hunger strike today."
"I..."
"Silence!" came a Kerlian voice and the room complied. Caroline lifted Leonie gently to an upwards position. "We are here to announce the results of the first four days. Following information gathered from various places, we have decided one of you is not suited for this programme."
"So soon?" Jessica breathed, the words quiet enough that they wouldn't go further than Leonie and Caroline's ears.
"That individual will be moved to a location more suitable for them to contribute to Kerlian society. We thank all of you who have assisted in our decision-making process. That individual is..."
The Kerlian paused, and in Leonie's muddled brain, she thought for a second that she was watching a reality TV show.
"Caroline Fowler."
Leonie's body stiffened as she turned to the woman next to her. Caroline had on a nonchalant expression, but there was a flicker of fear in her eyes.
"Stuff it," Caroline muttered, and lunged forward, throwing the bowl of chilli peppers at the Kerlian. The bowl smashed off the Kerlian's head, but she was wearing a helmet and seemed unhurt.
Two Kerlian guards moved towards Caroline but she moved out of their way. She made a beeline for where Rosa sat with a whole tray full of food, and snatched the tray. As a Kerlian approached her from behind, Caroline brought the tray down hard on the Kerlian's head. The second guard grabbed Caroline around the waist. She reached back with her arms and tried to grab the Kerlian's face.
"You're not going to do anything worse than what you already planned to do!" Caroline yelled as she struggled.
The Kerlian she'd whacked over the head stood back up, and helped the other drag Caroline to the door.
"Remember! This is Kerlile! Whatever they tell you, they're not good! Resist! Free Lauchenoiria! FREE LAU..."
The door slammed, cutting off her sentence. Leonie noted with equal parts horror and amusement that her appetite had disappeared.
"Why cabbage?" asked Jessica, the computer expert, as she slid onto the table next to Leonie and Caroline. She was followed by Rosa, who had been captured in southern Yervia attempting to deliver information to the Usera resistance from Elopolis.
