It had been three months since the Civil War's conclusion. The summer leaves are brushing up against the wind. Fumie's passing had led to some major changes in all of the schools, the old order was slipping away. Megumi had walked up to the meeting spot where Alexandra was standing on the railing for their ferry.

"Hey Megumi, how was the trip to the university?" Alexandra asked while she looked over the railing. Megumi stood by her friend's side while resting a hand on her.

"Pretty good. I was accepted to All Stars University. The people in charge were rather impressed with how I handled everything. I even got to see my old friends Azumi and Rumi." Megumi told Alexandra what exactly had been happening. Alexandra laughed at the prospect of meeting her old friends.

"I'm glad to hear that. At least you seem to be getting to have adventures." Alexandra told Megumi. Alexandra looked at the ocean ahead. "I feel like my adventures are going in a different direction."

"Why's that?" Megumi asked. "Did you get into trouble with MEXT?" Alexandra remained silent for a moment as she began to think of it.

"My path… is a lot different than yours. Renta has snubbed us by not fixing the problem and at this point, I'm powerless to stop him. Kay and I got into another scuffle as she threatened me to send me to the USA and she meant it. I plan on fleeing into the wilderness so that she isn't able to find me." Alexandra explained to Megumi that she wanted to be somewhere where the people couldn't reach her. Megumi felt worried about her friend as she was thinking of heading off to somewhere where she wouldn't be found.

"Where do you plan on going?" Megumi asked Alexandra, "I know you have a love for Siberia but is that where you intend on going?" Alexandra began to think about this for a moment before she turned her head to Megumi, thinking she had the answer for her.

"Yes. I do not plan on pursuing higher education. This year has been wild and I felt like my wishes weren't made true. I just hope Saunders closes down in the next year or two." Alexandra said with a sigh. Megumi wanted to figure out where Alexandra planned on going.

"I asked you where you are going? I want to see what you plan on doing. I won't tell Kay about this as I distrust her as much as you do." Megumi promised that she wanted Alexandra to tell her where she planned on going. "Where exactly do you want to go?"

"I've been thinking about it, I might have to do more research on the topic but I plan on moving to Vladivostok for now and work my way into Siberia. Was thinking of some of the cold empty steppes in the center and since I still have my love for horses, it's probably the one place I wish to go." Alexandra explained to Megumi where she intended to go in the future.

"You still haven't lost your spirit there. The others were glad to be serving under your command. I am more than happy to hear about that." Megumi happily told Alexandra.

"Yep. I wish to also help people who don't like Kay and those who want to leave get settled into the steppe. I think those that will struggle will find a good place to settle." Alexandra explained what her goals were to be. She stared out at the ocean while the sun was setting in the background.

"You have the need to help others. I just wanted to bring you back home to the school." Megumi explained that she went though some lengths to make sure Alexandra wasn't permanently exiled.

"If there's a thing I learned in Pravda that Kay hasn't taught me, it is that helping others is a natural part of life. Leaving others on the roadside causes misery and suffering to both. It applies to the person who needs the help and the person who decides to leave them behind." Alexandra explained to Megumi. "That's life."

"Is there something you want to talk about your time with Pravda?" Megumi asked Alexandra if she could share her experiences with them.

"Not really, it wasn't memorable, it felt like any other day to be honest with you. I just really can't wait to get going where I need to go. If these students find Kay to be miserable and they wish to leave, I'll let you know that I will be open for." Alexandra explained. "Any news on Alexei?"

"Yes I received the news that he has gotten out of the hospital and he approached me and Chiyo saying that he and his sisters had nowhere to go. Their parents have descended into drugs as they can't handle themselves anymore and this is leaving them with almost nowhere for them to go. Olga and Tatiana had agreed to go look for work, Maria and Anastasia will attend university as Chiyo is paying for all of their expenses and Alexei is still a teenager meaning he has nowhere to go. I told Chiyo about this and his condition. Chiyo agreed to watch over him while I have my chance to study and Alexei can get his education." Megumi explained to Alexandra the future of her friends. Alexandra was taken back by this while she looked at the sunset ahead.

"Well… at least Alexei still has a future ahead. That's good." Alexandra sighed. She figured out he was happy and he was going to enjoy himself. For Alexandra she began to think. What was it going to be for her?

"I'm happy to hear, we still have our whole lives ahead of us, it's not like everything we have ever worked for is going to go out of the window." Megumi explained to Alexandra that even if this could have been a relatively terrible year, things were going to get better according to her.

"Yeah but they should have liquidated Saunders on the spot, not only are our worst enemies still there, but they are now the ones running the school. I'm worried for the first years coming in and going to deal with them but mostly just Kay. I think we should tell MEXT that the students' health with those two is going to be leading. Should they make a new school for them?" Megumi asked.

"Not sure, ask them. I managed to get a hand out of the incoming students and based on most of the incoming freshmen, most of these seem to be coming from the US itself. Who is this girl with the brown twintails and blue eyes?" Alexandra told Megumi as she was looking at one of the girls. "They say she's from Alabama but… she doesn't look like she's from there. Her eyes are blue and those are more common in northern latitudes. She looks like she fits more where Nonna and Katyusha are. Why is she being accepted here?"

"Whoever decided to submit her information, she looks like her info has been made up. We should ask MEXT to keep tabs on her." Megumi suggested that they should get their friends to see what they have intended. "Also have MEXT construct a new school for those who will have to put up with Kay's idiocy and tyranny."

"I will. I have to get going now, it was nice talking to you Megumi." Alexandra expressed to Megumi that she needed to leave. "If you need me, call me and I'll see how you're doing with your new life. I'm going to have my things packed up and I'll be out of Japan by tomorrow." Alexandra got up and began to walk away. Megumi was left alone as the sun disappeared from the horizon. She was left alone by herself. Staring at the indigo sky ahead. She knew her time was up and this was the life she was no longer pursuing. All that remained was the tatters of the last life, going to be burned away in the memory that she had left. There was a new life ahead of her. One life that may present the new leaf growing from the tree. Megumi closed her eyes as the calming noise of the ocean was drowning out her mind:

Помню, как в памятный вечер

Падал платочек твой с плеч,

Как провожала и обещала

Синий платочек сберечь.

И пусть со мной

Нет сегодня любимой, родной,

Знаю, с любовью ты к изголовью

Прячешь платок голубой.

Письма твои получая,

Слышу я голос живой.

И между строчек синий платочек

Снова встаёт предо мной.

И часто в бой

Провожает меня образ твой,

Чувствую, рядом с любящим взглядом

Ты постоянно со мной.

Сколько заветных платочков

Носим в шинелях с собой!

Нежные речи,

Девичьи плечи

Помним в страде боевой.

За них, родных,

Желанных, любимых таких.

Строчит пулемётчик за синий платочек,

Что был на плечах дорогих!

Строчит пулемётчик за синий платочек,

Что был на плечах дорогих!


It isn't one for people to fall victim to such selfish or selfless actions. The latter is better for people to understand. We have been lied to and deceived by those pulling the strings of society. We often think about the memories we have before the world takes them away and say we should put ourselves above the societies that nurture us into the humans we are. We don't appreciate what we have until it's taken from us. It's the nature of people that train the minds of those who want to turn them into the people controlling the strings, the ones to beat those into submission.

The land of the Free is anything but that. We aren't free in the end. Controlled by those at the top. We attempt to make ourselves better but it's not about being responsible, it's about helping those who need it and they will help you back. We don't need Free Markets, being able to say what we please or having the right to own weapons that can cause one to go against their village. We don't need walls to keep those out or to keep those in. That is what the forest is for. The thought of starvation and those that want to hunt you down should bee the thing to make humans behave. Humans should only take what they need for the labor they put in to make their village functioning like a daily slice of bread. No human should party as parties are a waste of resources resources that could be used to make humans become educated, have good medicine to live another day, and being able to feed themselves the three pillars to making society function along with the shelter that will keep us clean and not disease ridden. Something that putting your own needs above everyone else's will not accomplish.

When we are given the notion of being a social creature like all human beings. There are ingredients the village needs other than shelter, work and food. They also need passion, order and chaos. Passion is something that they should pursue if they are to have what they desire. If a person wants to write and share their ideas and beliefs, they should be free to. Work needs to be done however and if this means putting them on a state run farm so they could share their ideas with the others and they could refine them to make them better and thus helping the society to function. Order to make sure things function. Every society has its rules and those that preach Freedom are preaching for Anarchy, one that will want nothing, no helping out others, being predatory and controlling the resources meant for people who work hard in their talents. No guards to protect us from the threats outside of the village, no services to ensure we're clean and educated and nothing to punish rulebreakers with death or banishment from the village. Chaos of war that will destroy the very fabric of village life but in the chaos, the people will rise up to kill the tyrannical rulers who think money is the way to go. It's not money that people want, it's having the life that will benefit their village they need. Heroes will rise up from the chaos to rally the soldiers with bold actions and daring words. If one continues to preach for the individual soldier, they need to be immediately replaced with those that want to get the whole platoon, company, battalion or regiment to victory. An army could win if they are the same family as the village. Nothing should replace that notion.

If you say anything about god. The truth is god is just as flawed as the rest of us. He isn't a perfect being. Those who use his name and twist it for their own motives shouldn't be saying his name. The truest instructions are to spread the good message and to help those that have been left behind regardless of what they look like, who they are and how they act. We need to learn how to sacrifice our lives for someone else's. It is like war where the person needs to make the move that will result in the loss of the soldier but that soldier lost is one step closer to victory. Telling the village that god is perfect, individual rights, responsibilities and free markets is not ensuring victory. To truly win, the village needs to become one to work with the quotas to ensure the soldiers win the war.

What one should be ranting about is that we should be working together to better the lives of the society we live in, not to be responsible for ourselves. One person's responsibility will do nothing until the collective could figure out how to make their lives better by taking control of the resources they will eventually own. It's not about putting someone in charge, diplomacy or courthouses for egalitarian purposes, people are just better off living their lives. Take everything away from them and make their lives simpler yet harder, the people could be better. Hardship is what drives human beings. Without hardship there is no life, nothing to live for no amount of religion is going to fix it.

If what Megumi and Alexandra are saying is true, it could mean that the school of Saunders is going to collapse as there is no morality left, nothing to work for and to look forward to. Kay is the type of person who is going to make things easier, more comfortable for the students. Taking away the very thing of what makes the students easier and telling them to have fun with it is something we do not take pride in. Sensha-Do isn't fun, neither is life. There will be days of hardship but the days of hardship should be every day. If life was fun then there would be nothing. We would have everything we ever want and that isn't good.

In a conversation regarding the future of the school going forward, Renta Tsutsuji's decision to keep Saunders open was met with a lot of scrutiny. Renta wanted to do this to make the American Shareholders happy and thus having a stranglehold over the school. We asked "What about our shareholders? Do they matter?" Renta said nothing on the subject and we asked about the whole life that everyone strived for collective action with the students and he flipped out about it. He even threatened for me to be fired if I didn't comply with his actions and decisions. We feel powerless with Renta's hands on our throats. We can't even get anything done. Regarding new schools that Megumi had asked for, a new school ship is being constructed to help those with emotional problems especially since Megumi brought up the concern about the well being of the incoming freshmen going forward. There was a loophole in this and we kept it a secret. Renta wasn't happy about this and with this completion of the writing. I am scared for my life going forward, I honestly think this will be the end of my career. We have to take actions collectively.

With the completion of SSISSN the new merger school forged after the events of the 61st National Sensha-Do tournament by combining eight underfunded and with few students in them, we hope things will be good going forward. Milica agreed to be its leader of this new school. The first thing we are figuring out is the influx of students from Saunders as Kay's behavior is having a negative impact on them. The students have no hope for the future as they had been given everything and with this no hope, they stopped believing in everything. Some say it could be the rise of the internet and social media sites… well according to Kay but there is a bigger problem with the students going forward. The whole political, cultural and rational thinking of Saunders has imploded and the new first years are desperate for a way out. Some of them jumped off the side of the ship, others sneaking off in rowboats. The rise of mental illness in the school is alarming and the new Evangelical priests Kay hired to replace the Orthodox ones are causing people to give up as the messages these priests are giving out are doing more harm than good. We tried our best to reach some of the students but Naomi was the only one who got back. She said she was worried for the students' mental health as some of the scores coming back about their intelligence seemed to be all over the place. We asked what was going on and Naomi said the school's vast library of books were being emptied out and weren't being replaced and those that did replace them were about Kay's own ideology. She said she heard students conducting book sweeps and confiscating books that went against Kay's own ideas. Great literary works and intellectual works that students should read if they are to express themselves in their lives going forward are being destroyed. Among these are books written by a certain Karl Marx and even certain versions of the bible aren't spared and have been removed from the shelves. What we can conclude is that there is a massive brain drain going on as any dictator would do when they get their hands on power. They begin banning works that go against what they believe in. Among the banned titles of books that are being removed are the authors of Nietzsche, Marx himself, Hobbes, Machiavelli, Voltaire, Hume and many more. The only two philosophers that have replaced the others are Ayn Rand who promotes greed and selfishness over altruism. And Peterson… I don't want to open that can of worms, he is one of the worst human beings ever. I wanted to read something enlightening but instead I'm getting a bunch of nonsense and Kay lifes this. This isn't life but a machiavelli type of take over which will instill fear and getting the students to obey Kay. I tried to get her removed but Renta blocked the proposal. We can only come to understand that there is no hope left for Saunders. God is dead and we have killed him.

End of Story

[A/N]: Got the Epilogue done and the last part is a combination of my condolesenses and what these people think. There is some bias so take what I say with a grain of salt.

Finally this story is done! It has taken me more than a year to complete as it has more chapters than my longest GuP Fanfiction but some of the chapters have been shortened down due to the fact that I had less resources to work with. I also got a bit into reading a bit, trying to find information to use as ideas for this fanfiction and yes I will be providing the whole channels and which videos I took inspiration from as there were definitely a lot.
