Chapter 1 - CHAPTER 1: The Beginning After the End

["After many decades of political power struggle, the two parties have reached an agreement by merging by the outgoing president the 22nd President Alexah Marquez, and the reelected president the 21st and now the 23rd President Henry Capistrano, they will bound to meet this 10:30 A.M. June 30, 2058. For the next story a new drug has been disco----"]

Bernard opens the doors aggressively and hugs his brother with a cheerful smile. Brother! Are you ready for round 2!?

Henry replies with nervousness. I-I-I I'm not sure. But I guess I can do it.

Bernard puts his hands on Henry's shoulder with a tease. Hoh! I guess you want to see Alexah?! Don't ya?!

Henrey replies furiously and scoffed at Bernard's hands. THAT BITCH! NO WAY!!! I JUST ACCEPTED THE AGREEMENT BECAUSE THE PARTY TOLD ME SO!!

Bernard replies with contentment. Whatever. Just do your best and don't be late! I'm still your older brother anyways. Remember, whatever happens, I'll always be on your side!

Henry replies with calmness. Thank you, brother!

Bernard walks a few steps and turns his head back. I'll see you at the venue because I'll visit our parents and siblings first.

[10:30 A.M.]

["Ladies and gentlemen, we are seeing now the arrival of the incoming 23rd President Henry Capistrano"]

Henry greets the guest with mixed emotions. "It's a pleasure to see you all once again!"

[Caesar Orbitz. Finance Secretary] Caesar greets Henry with optimism. It's a pleasure to meet you, Henry. Why don't you meet those maharlikans?

[Note: My interpretation of maharlikan is a large family-owned conglomerate business comparable to a chaebol in Korea.]

Henry replies to Caesar with disgust. Heh! Those people?! They just do anything to monopolize things! And why should I meet them!?

Caesar understands Henry's opinion. Well, there is no one forcing you to do so. I'll respect your decision.

["After greeting the guest, Henry is going up to the staircase as the tradition follows that he will meet the incumbent president Alexah Marquez"]

It's a pleasure to meet you again Mr. Capsitrano! Alexah greets with a deceptive smile while offering her hands to shake.

Ah! It's been a while, Ms. Marquez! Henry replies with a deceptive smile and accepts Alexah's hands and grip with force.

["Ladies and gentlemen, as you can see, they look like a lovey-dovey couple or a very close best friend"]

Henry spoke in his mind. Heh! Couple!? Best Friend?! This Bitch?!!! NO WAY!

Alexah spoke in her mind. Couple?! Best Friend?! This Bastard?!! Fuck off!

The crowd reacts with mixed emotions

Th- the- they looked like best friends!...

I-I-I supposed so…

I just hope that they don't destroy the whole palace.

"After the two shake hands, they are both heading to the main hall for the peaceful transition of power. They reached the hall with a small conversation with each other"

So, are you happy now that you will be back in power again huh!? Alexah speaks to him with irritation.

YES OF COURSE!!! Why would I be sad to be back in power?! Especially I will not able to see your clumsy face ever again! Henry replied to Alexah with arrogance and a shameless attitude.

Media POV: ["I guess they look like a lovey-dovey couple that hasn't met for a long time."]

On the other hand, the two

HEEEEEYYYY!! DO YOU WANT TO DIEEEEE!!??? Alexah threatens Henry.

Hoh, so scary! Should I tell a story to the press that we had a one-night stand, and it was the best experience you ever had?! Henry tries to blackmail Alexah.

COME HERE YOU LITTLE SHIT! Alexah. Alexah grabs his chest and pushes him to the ground, and she sits on his stomach while punching his face.

Heeeyyy!! Heeeyyy!!! Why are you so mad?!! HAHAHA HAHAHA! Henry spoke with satisfaction.

YOU DON'T KNOW YOUR PLACE!!! DIEEEEE YOUUU FUCKKKEEERRR!!! Alexah replies full of rage.

Heeeyyy! Stop it! Yeahhhh!! That hits the spot!!! Keep going!! Ohhhh Yeaaahhhh!! Henry shouts with pleasure and enjoyment.

Media POV: As we can see here, they are talki---- OHHHH MYYY!!! How bold of them to do such a thing in the live broadcast!!!!

Anchor: Dear Parents who have children who are watching live together, please refrain the children from watching because as we can see, we are currently seeing an R-18 scene.

"The staff has entered the scene and they confronted those two, and after several minutes the meeting concludes, and they are heading downstairs for the departure awards for the outgoing president Alexah Marquez"

Hey Alexah! Henry stops walking and grabs her hand.

Alexah slowly turns her head back with a death stare. What!

Henry is dumbfounded. Huh? What's with that stare?! I am apologizing for what happened earlier since I went overboard that time.

Alexah put her wrist on her jaw with a tease. Hooh! You are apologizing right now huh?!

Henry shows his palm to her, slightly closes, and opens his eyes with a smile. You haven't finished me speaking, in addition, we are still seeing each other so, I can tease you whenever I wanted to, washboard.

HEY YOUUU!

Wow! That slap was comparable to my mother's slap me when I was young.

["Both of them are heading to the stage where heads to departure awards but unbeknown to them that there will be something about to happen."]

Alexah walks uncomfortably due to the extreme heat. Geez! This heat is really making me uncomfortable!

Yeah! It's hot nowadays but, do you feel something strange?

What is it?

Have you ever wondered while we are walking heading to the stage it feels like becomes quiet?

Yeah! I notice that also.

["Moments later the military has arrived."]

General Soleman, why are you here, and why there are many soldiers here? Are there any problems happening right now? Is there an invasion or a terrorist attack?

General, what brings you here?

General Soleman: We are here to cancel the proclamation and both of you are coming with me to put you two behind bars you haven't noticed yet we have already arrested all the government personnel the secretaries, congressmen, senators, and the last one both of you!

WHAT IS THE MEANING OF THIS GENERAL?! Alexah shouts in rage.

THIS IS OUTRAGEOUS, THIS IS A COUP D'ETAT GENERAL! Henry is furious.

General Soleman: Ding! Ding! Ding! You are correct and welcome back Mr. President! General Soleman speaks with dominance.

[The general orders to capture the two meanwhile Henry and Alexah are planning how to get out]

Hey!

What?!

Do you remember what we did when the time becomes dire?

Yeah. Why?

We should set aside our rivalries first Alexah to get out and fix this mess. Do you agree?

Fine! But how can we get out here?

Alexah, do you remember that place there?

Yes, I remember. Why?

As far as I remember that is the only one that has only secret exit. Do you remember that place?

Yes Henry, but how did we discover that area?

It- It's better not to talk that about. Henry is shy and blushing.

WAIT! I remember it vividly! We are both drunk and we started kissing and--- no! NO! NO! Alexah is blushing.

HEEYY WHAT ARE YOU THINKING!!! WE DID NOT DO THAT KIND OF STUFF YOU KNOW, AND IF I RECALL IT CORRECTLY, WE BOTH FALL IN THAT AREA BECAUSE YOU ARE TOO DRUNK AND ALSO, I REALLY REMEMBER THAT YOU ARE SO DRUNK AND YOU STARTED STRIPPING YOUR CLOTHES IN FRONT OF ME. Henry smack Alexah's head.

WHAAA----! YOU! PERVERT! WHAT HAVE YOU DONE TO ME?!

HEYY! IT'S CLEARLY YOUR FAULT YOU KNOW! Besides, can we stop fighting first and let us proceed to our plan, shall we?

FINE! SURE! But first, remember that you are going to take responsibility for m--

Guards: HEY! WHY ARE YOU TWO SO LOUD!?

[The guards enter the cell turned off the lights and tortured the two.]

Henry: WHY ARE YOU DOING THIS?! WE DID NOT DO ANYTHING!!

Alexah: FUCKERS! YOU SHOULD GO TO HELL!!

Guard 1: You asked for it! The guard punches Alexah in the stomach.

Gah!

Henry: HEY! YOU WENT TOO FAR! SHITHEAD!

Guard 2: WATCH YOUR MOUTH IDIOT! The guard batted Henry's knees and shoulders.

Kuah!

Alexah: HENRY! NOOOO!

Guard 1: As for you lady, we will not severely punish you if you gave us a good time! The first guard is licking and whispering into Alexah's ear.

Guard 2: Your face, your lovely gaze, your unrivaled femme fatale, your boobs that I like to grope, it's really turning me on! The second guard is touching Alexah's body.

Alexah: STOOOOP ITTTT! FUCKKKKEERRRS! NOOOO! IT HURRRRTTSSS! Alexah is hopeless and helpless while staring at Henry.

Henry: DEMONS! YOU SHOULD ALL DIE YOU MONSTERRRRSSS! Henry stares pitifully at Alexah while him being agonizing in pain due to batting.

[The guards continue to molest and strip down Alexah naked, and Henry finds a knife as his chance to kill the guards.]

DIE! YOU MOTHERFUCKER!

[Henry stabs the two guards to death but does not stop until satisfied. Alexah tries to confront him hugging him back and crying and as he loses control, he almost stabs Alexah and that's when he regained consciousness and hugs Alexah crying.]

HENRY! I- I- I DON'T KNOWW WHAT TO DO NOW! I'M SCARED! Huuuuu! Alexah is terrified

Noooo! Alexah just does not think of anything you'll be fine, I promise, if I am here, you'll be fine. If I had only acted earlier, this shouldn't happen to you. Henry gives Alexah his suit, hugs her tightly, and breaks down with regret.

Henry, things were already done, the past is past never should discuss, I am glad that I met yo---

[Henry and Alexah are talking to each other, and the lights are turned on as General Soleman enters clapping like he enjoys the show]

General Soleman: Bravo! Bravo! That is such a nice show lovebird, honestly, it made me cry and you two should have deserved to be given Oscars for best actors and actresses.

[Henry is full of rage and rushes towards General Soleman to kill.]

Henry: YOU SHOULD DIE YOU MOTHERFUCKER!!!

General Soleman: [Smiles]

[Henry stops moving and falls he saw that their family are ais held captive and the guards pointed a gun at them.

Henry: MONSTER! YOU DARE TO MESS WITH MY FAMILY ALSO?! Henry is hopeless.

Alexah: MONSTER! WHY DID YOU BRING THEM HERE?! Alexah is in deep shock.

General Soleman: Actually, allow us to introduce some special guests to watch the special show and one more thing, I also bring the media here to broadcast live, not just here but the entire world is watching.

Henry: WHY ARE YOU DOING THIS TO US!!!

General Soleman: Simple, I want to grasp and taste the power as both of you are a bunch of idiots who are puppets of the oligarchs and not solving the problems in the nation properly.

Alexah: WHAT IS THE CONNECTION THAT TO US AND FAMILY?!

General Soleman: Haiz! This gave me a headache! I want you and your family to disappear from this world and I will rule this land by force! Someday I will conquer the world and make me the great emperor for a thousand years! General speaks with arrogance and pride.

Alexah: IN YOUR DREAMS! THAT WILL NEVER HAPPEN! BECAUSE PEOPLE WILL RISE AGAINST YOU!

General Soleman: HUH! OH REALLY!? THEY CAN'T DO ANYTHING BECAUSE WE HAVE THE POSSESSIONS OF NUCLEAR WEAPONS, CHEMICAL WEAPONS, AND BIOLOGICAL WEAPONS AND IF ANYONE WILL STAND IN MY WAY, THEY SHALL PERISH!

Henry: WHAT A MANIAC!

General Soleman: HAHAHAHAHA!!! NOW, LET'S GET DOWN TO THE BUSINESS!

Alexah: WHAT DO YOU WANT FROM US?!

General Soleman: HAHAHAHA! I LIKE THIS GIRL!! All you have to do is to play the game called "Russian Roulette"

Henry: What are you trying to do?! Henry is shocked.

General Soleman: The rules are simple, first you need to pick one of the spectators here and shoot them in the head—

Alexah: ARE YOU INSANE?!

[General Soleman fires his gun at Alexah's arm.]

AHHHHHH!

General Soleman: QUIET BITCH!! CUT ME ONE MORE TIME, YOU WILL EXPERIENCE THE WORST TORTURE IN THE HISTORY!

Henry: JUST KILL US BOTH ALREADY!! WHY ARE YOU STILL TORTURING US IF WE ARE BOUND BOTH TO DIE?!

[General Soleman fires his gun at Henry's legs.]

AAAAHHHHHH!

General Soleman: JUST WAIT FOR ME TO FINISH MY TALK FIRST!!

[The media felt scared.]

Media Personnel: He- he- hey, gen- general, tha- thatt's way too brutal!

General Soleman: WILL YOU KEEP QUIET ANTS?! COMRADES! SHOOT THEM ALL!!

[Henry and Alexah are too terrified and speechless to dare to look at the traumatic and horrific scene.]

Henry and Alexah: …...

General Soleman: Sorry for that unfortunate interruption, and anyways, let us continue. General smiles psychotically.

Henry, who- wha- what should we do?

We just need to wait for him to give us the gun for us so we can use this chance to save our family, the others, and ourselves.

General Soleman: Where are we? That's right the game. These are two guns, pick them and each of them contains one bullet. The rules are, to pick one of the spectators and put the gun in their head and shoot them. Failure to shoot in 3 seconds I will shoot the spectators by myself.

Alexah: This Maniac!

General Soleman: Okay, let's start! Henry, pick your target.

Henry: NO! I WILL NOT!

Haiz!

BANG—

[General killed Alexah's sister]

Alexah: NOOOOOO!!!

General Soleman: JUST DO WHAT I SAY! SHOOT!

Bernard: BROTHER! HELP ME!

Henry is surprised. Bernard!

General Soleman: I guess you have already picked your target.

Henry: BASTARD! I'LL JUST KILL MYSELF RATHER THAN SHOOT HIM!

General Soleman: Haiz! Stop whining, let me help you.

Henry: Wait noooo!

General Soleman: This is how you shoot perfectly. First, aim at the target, second, reload, and lastly, pull the trigger.

Henry: No NO NOOO!

Bernard: HELP ME, BROTHER! NOOO!!

BANG—

General Soleman: Bullseye! HAHAHAHA!

[Henry feels blank after he shot his brother and does not know what to do]

Henry: My brother! Nooo!

General Soleman: HAHAHAHAHA!

Henry: YOU HAVE DONE FOR IT!!! ALEXAH! NOW!

BANG—

General Soleman: URGH! IT STINGS FUCKER! COMRADES SHOOT THEM ALL!!

[Henry and Alexah have been consumed by anger, grief, and rage. They rush towards the soldiers and kill them one by one]

General Soleman: I- I- Impossible! What did I have done to you? I do not do something bad to you. The General is terrified.

Henry and Alexah: YOU WE'RE THE ONE WHO MADE US LIKE THIS AND WE HOPE WE SEE EACH OTHER IN HELL!!

[Henry and Alexah's eyes turned red while stabbing The General multiple times and they freed all the captives.]

Henry: THIS IS FOR MY BROTHER!

Alexah: THIS FOR MY SISTER AND THE PEOPLE THAT YOU KILLED!

General Soleman: Wa- wait! Stop! STOP! STOOOPP!

[They both weren't satisfied yet, they cut off his limbs and crush his all bones to dust while they both laughed maniacally.]

Henry: HAHAHAHA!

Alexah: THIS IS STILL NOT ENOUGH! HAHAHA!

[They both realize that The General's decapitated head starts moving and laughing]

General Soleman: HAHAHAHAHA!

[Henry and Alexah were shocked]

General Soleman: You thought that you won? You should have gone through the head! HAHAHAHA!

[A bright flash continues to radiate from General's head and explodes]

Henry: AHHHH! What the fuck was that!?

Alexah: I don't know [cough].

[THUD]

Henry: Alexah! ALEXAH! Are you—ahhh! You are in a bad shape! Don't worry I will help you! Wait I uh!

Alexah: Henry, don't! Just let it be since I am going to die.

Henry: Hey! Don't say that! There is still a chance.

[Henry tries to lift Alexah]

AHHHHH!

Alexah: Hey! Don't push yourself, idiot!

Henry: No! I can still do this!

[Alexah saw Henry's serious wound]

Alexah: YOU! Hey just put me down! It's useless! There is no hope for us! Come here and lie down beside me and ask some questions or tell some stories because I want this to make memorable for us.

Henry: I guess…

[Henry agrees and lies down beside Alexah].

Alexah: [laugh softly] good boy!

Henry: Alexah, I think it's still not too late to say this but I regretted keeping it for a long time.

Alexah: What is it?

Henry: It took me a long time to say this but honestly I like you despite the things in the past that have happened.

Alexah: HAHAHA! I knew this day would come and finally, you said it because I'd been waiting for either of us to see a chance to say it. Yes! I also like you Henry but unfortunately at this time.

Henry: [sigh] Fate really likes clowning people's lives, what a letdown.

[Henry and Alexah continue talking to each other for a short time, until]

Henry: [coughing up blood]

Alexah: Hey, what happened?

Henry: I think I'm at a limit. Alexah can I ask you one last question?

Alexah: Sure, What is it?

Henry: This is embarrassing to ask but okay, do you believe in reincarnation and the afterlife?

Alexah: Yeah... I do believe

Henry: [sigh] That's a relief! If it exists, I promise that I will find you whatever it takes.

Alexah: [smirks] You flatter me! I will look up to it.

[Henry and Alexah hold their hands]

Henry: Thank you for being my friend and for reminiscing about the past Alexah!

Alexah: [smirks] Thank you also for being by my side this entire time, Henry!

See you later… Alexah!

See you later… Henry!

[Henry and Alexah have died in the cold and dark empty hall while holding their hands, and moments later.]

Strange woman: What kind of disaster is this?! So disgusting!

Strange man: Stop yapping, just do our jobs here to investigate this because this is just only the beginning after the end.
