The Free Slave

It is complicated

Cassandra has been missing, she came out of the surgery, and the next morning, she was gone.
Security cameras showed that someone took her.
Then President Sun came in.
" I am the one that took Cassandra, I wanted it to be a surprise. Now, her number is 224. Cassandra is in the past, just like everything else." She explained,
Then a once beautiful lady came in. Her neck was all bruised and puffy. Cassandra's hair no longer glowed, it used to go down to her hips, but now it was bobbed. She smiled when she saw Lily.
" LILY!!" Cassie yelled
President Sun grabbed a whip from inside her jacket and hit Cassie.
Cassie yelled and jumped back.
Then she realised.
" I am so sorry President Sun." Cassie apologised.
Sun nodded sternly.
" I missed you so much 222!!!!!! There is so much we need to talk about." Cassie said.
The two linked arms and headed into the hut.
Sun and the guard headed off.
But as they did, Sun slipped a letter under Lily's bed.
" Now, there is a lot I need to explain to you. This is where we live, we can write to anyone, but the letters get checked.
We have trackers that can inject us with poison, and we are slaves here. " Lily explained.
" sounds unfair." Cassie complained as she flopped down on a bed.
"AH! My side and neck are so sore.WHY?!"
" The surgery, remember?"
"Oh yeah. Totally knew that..."
They both laughed.
The two exchanged smiles and went to bed.
In the morning, Lily helped Cassie get her tattoo, and they split up to go to their jobs.
Lily's read:
. Take out the bins
. Feed the dogs
. Deliver the papers
It wasn't much today, because another 20 slaves had joined, so the work load had lightened.
Cassie's read:
. Weed gardens
. Fold laundry
She only had two jobs, because it was her first day, and she was brought back from the dead.

It was the end of the fist day, and 222 and 224 were back at the hut, so Lily decided to show Cassie the letter.
"Oh, I don't mean to alarm you lil', but I think it IS fake. Do you see that tiny dot under each letter, that is made by one of the most advanced technology. Someone is scamming you." Cassie hugged her friend.
Then Lily broke down into tears, she was supposed to be strong, but she couldn't do it.
She put the letter under her bed, and found the one from Sun.

222,
You are a slave, Cassandra and Shakira are back. But no one is safe. Not them, not you, not me.
Life is full,of lies. You have to figure out what is real, and what isn't. Don't forget, we all have our secrets.
But, not everything is as it seems.
