Day 2: Today I am a changed man. It happened when I was talking to Gutta. She barely wanted to look at me for what I did to Talon. And when I tried to be like a leader and said "I do not need to explain my actions," she said I sounded like my father and wasn't impressed. "The way Talon ran into that crowd-That impressed me,"she said "because he wasn't just doing it for himself." "I can be like that, when I'm most-beloved." I replied. She sounded like she was swallowing ice when she said "no-one will be. The war didn't work. The world is coming to the end." Then...it did.
At first it was quiet. Then an explosion blew off the roof...then the blindness...and the ringing in my ears made it worse. Then i noticed... where was Gutta? I looked and looked until I saw her and put my ear on her chest for a sign of a heart beat. I pulled away because it had become warm and bloody. I looked up and saw men talking about topsider things and then I became something I wasn't and screamed so loud that both the topside and downside heard. I climbed up and hurled bricks and stones and the men ran away. I went down and picked up Gutta and thought about these topsider healers that can cheat death. I ran with her to the healers. They asked us what happened and all I said was, ''the war." They just said "what war?", took Gutta and inserted tubes and medical devices into her. I just waited.
