When the world was a free place, I would journey to the spring meadow and let myself be one with the flowers. The warm sun baking my skin to a golden tone, the flowers gently tickling my face and filling my nostrils with fresh smells, and various insects were buzzing and flapping about. Nirvana, the state of ultimate peace of mind, was my internal state in my mind. I thought to my self, "I'm in eternal bliss, I'm happy, I'm calm, I'm free. Nothing could rob me of my Nirvana.

Damn, I couldn't have been more wrong!
I sat up with my heart racing in my chest and thumping in my ears, and my face flushed red as I hear the sounds of my kin screaming and fleeing from soldiers covered head-to-toe in black and wearing protective goggles over their eyes and mouth covers. Seeing the others getting shot with tasers and falling to the ground filled me with intense fear. While a soldier tortured a random boy, i bolted towards a stream at the bottom of the hill and the soldier let the boy be and came after me like a hunter chasing its prey. Managed to find a hiding spot in some shrubbery and remained silent for as long as my brain would allow me. The soldier came to the bottom of the hill and cautiously and thoroughly checked the entire bottom of the hill and my heart started to thump when he (unbeknownst to himself) started walking closer to me. My breathing intensified and had to cover my mouth to keep from getting any louder and started shaking with all the adrenaline racing through my body faster than my brain could try to calm my body down. Thankfully after five minutes he went away. Just to be safe, i waited just a few minutes longer until i hadn't heard anything moving. So, quickly, i ran down a path covered by trees that would allow me to remained partially unseen for as long as possible. I didn't know how far or how long i had to run but i knew the longer and faster i ran, the farther and safer i was, the better. The dirt road turned to gravel, then pebbles, then hard blacktop. By now i must've been far enough from those soldiers. The thing that hurt the most wasn't me leaving my kin behind but that my peace of mind had been disturbed and now anything and everything is racing through my brain like a never ending radio.

A sudden, sharp pain hit my middle back and I fell to the ground as my muscles were spasming and constricting constantly.

"Well, well, if it isn't Zeta herself." A male voice said.
I dare not look upon him so i just kept still and remained silent.
"How do you know my name?"
He laughed and replied, "My commander knows of your acts against Aldimar, our grand society. He knows your kind wish destruction upon us all."
My kind.
Those words felt like a sharp, stabbing pain in my back. The last thing anyone like me wants to hear is "my kind". Admittedly how i decided to respond wasnt the best but i can't imagine keeping myself calm when painful words are spoken and directed at you personally. I shot up like a dart and started to wrestle the soldier and for some time i had the upperhand but lost it when he grasped my throat and with his other hand electrocuted the crap out of me and i felt an endless pit of rage well up inside me. The small virus growing into a plague and i could feel something physically on my face and the soldier noticed too.
"Oh God, you're a glitcher, a two-faced witch!" He yelled.
Despite him still choking the life out of me, i managed to reach a knife in his belt and stab him in his stomach. He groaned with pain,fell over on the ground and slowly bleed to death whilst looking me in the eyes.
"That's what you get for calling me a two-faced glitcher."
Suddenly, a group of twenty soldiers surrounded me with guns and lasers aimed at my chest and forhead which was my clue to back down. One soldier came up to me with a scanner and it vibrated and blinked red lights.
"Sir, she's a glitcher!"
His commander ordered him to shackle me like a rabid dog and then when my face started to "glitch"more. Another soldier grabbed me by the arm and forced me into a truck with other people like me. Some were relatively mild glitchers and others looked like death would be imminent.
"Take them to Aldimar. Let the high counselor decide their fate!" Said a soldier to the driver. Immediately one lady freaked out and jumped out of the truck and tried to escape before getting shot in the back and stopped moving.
"Moron glitcher-driver go!"
The vehicle started moving and everyone but I tensed. Not sure why, but whatever seemed to be happening didn't phase me in the least. Not because I'm used to violence or aggressive behavior but because the one thing I have that no other has, whether in this vehicle or world, was that I have a dark side that can releash havoc upon the city of Aldimar and that darkness is called pure, undefined evil because I am a Gemini and the "two-faced and physical glitching of the face" are the gemini mentally switching between the good and bad.
