Disclaimer: I do not own any of these characters, or the whole story of
Equilibrium. The purpose of my writing this is to add to it, and to write
about parts that were not in the film that I think would be have been
interesting if Kurt Wimmer had added them in. So I am sort of filling in
gaps with my own views of what I think would have happened at certain times
of the story. I'd also like to thank Kurt Wimmer for making such a great
movie and picking such an awesome John Preston.
Everything we had ever come to know, believe, and live was a lie—a hypocritical and useless cause. Even the man we all had known as "Father" was a lie, but it didn't matter anymore—he and Dupont are dead.
Our society was supposed to be one of peace, but all it ended up to be was a mad chaotic destruction. God had been replaced and we all stopped believing—our faith turned to the devil walking on earth and by the technology that had taken over us all. It was all about to change soon, but I knew it would take a lot of hard work and some time. Most of the people have no idea what it is like to feel, and there will be a lot of confusion. But it is time to reconstruct, time to build a new society.
I stared at Father as he spoke about Alexander the Great slaughtering millions. We have been taught that we needed to be rid of war, stop the chaos and the fighting, yet how many innocent people have we killed just because they were feeling, one of our most important aspects of life. I speared my blood on his face with a few of my fingers; this bloodshed caused by him was going to stop.
I lifted my gun with my other hand, point it and destroy the technology that had windowed our world to him, soon, I destroyed all the others and Father was gone. Instantly, I could see as I stood at the opening looking down at Libria, the Prozium factories had been destroyed. The resistance, as Jurgen said, swarmed out and began destroying the law and the officials. It was then that I knew everything would be different. Everything would be better.
