Miitopian Civil War

Chapter 3: Last Straw

Date: November 15th, 2022

Last time on Miitopian Civil War. The Knights Of Miitopia removed all fascist and pro-kingdom knights from their organization with new knight Swiftdrawer's help. Later, they turned against the kingdoms of Greenhorne and Neksdor, capturing the king of Greenhorne and abolishing Greenhorne's kingdom in favor of a stateless commune. Their opposition didn't stand a chance. Now for what happened on the day the Nazis ignited the fuse that would spark a months long conflict that would be full of bloodshed and agony. To hell with Novelww.

The Nazis struck sooner than most of us expected. All of us except me. I figured they would attack early in the morning to catch people off guard so I volunteered to stay up late to keep watch in our base. I can live through not going to bed till early in the morning if necessary. iFC in August and past New Years parties helped teach me that. Silence was the only atmosphere as everyone else slept but I knew it was like a smokescreen for what the Nazis had planned. We all joined the movement which has just been renamed to the Miitopian People's Revolutionary Front. It's large and has members all over Miitopia. It has become clear that social revolution won't be enough to stop the Nazis. We have to do a lot more than that to bring them down. Then, at 12:30 AM, it happened. The sounds of military vehicles, marching, and explosions were so loud that even in the base, I could hear them. I sigh: "It has begun! I must wake everyone up immediately and contact Pirate Blaster who is guarding the other knights again with Thrashbeak! And I can't waste any time! No slacking!" We recently had many alarms that we can pull installed in the base. In that moment, I pull the nearest one. Now, alarms are going off throughout the base and I prepare to leave after hastily contacting Pirate Blaster with my sword already in my hand. Bray is the first one to find me: "Adam! Are you sure this isn't a false alarm?" "Yes. I haven't been this sure about anything in some time. Get ready. I'm ready to kill if I must as much as taking another's life bothers me. We'll pound them into the ground if possible. We should split up." "I agree. I sense the purge is Miitopia-wide. I shall gather a few extra supplies before leaving. Let's go to our houses together with a few others as soon as possible." "Good idea. We need to stay calm. We cannot let ourselves be horrified about what we think has already happened just yet." Not even a minute later, myself, Bray, Herbsalvin, Mel, Pirate Blaster, and Thrashbeak go to the town of Galados Isle.

Or more specifically, where the houses some of us still own are located. I go into my house, effectively trapping a small group of Nazis inside: about 20 of so. They're fully armed with guns and all that stuff. It's like they rejected magic completely. "Hello misguided fools. I am your reckoning. I'll let you live because you don't stand a chance of hurting me. You thought I would be here, right? You were right but your timing was off. In any case, let the show begin. Hurt me if you dare. The only mercy I'll show you is not killing you. That's all. I won't hold back. In a place such as this, you must be thinking you can overwhelm me but you'd be dead wrong. Don't get any ideas of victory, scum." They try to shoot me and kill me that way but it doesn't work out. In fact, I sheath my sword and egg them on by motioning with my right hand: "Let me have it, you bastards. I can defeat you with my pinky finger if I so chose. Your guns may be actual guns but mine are my arms. And that's bad news for you." "You rotten homosexual filth and groomer! You groom kids into your sexuality cult!" "Oh someone has been feeding you lies I see. No. I do not indoctrinate children into becoming queer. Don't be ridiculous. Using others selfishly is not my thing or style. It's what you jerks do. At any rate, chatter time is over. Now, it's time to crush you and make sure you never see the light of this world's sky ever again!" They aren't total fools as only a couple of them shoot at me but I easily evade the bullets by showing off my immense sense of balance by running up the walls and such just like during the 2nd trial I underwent to become a knight. After that, I poke the closest person so hard with my right pinky finger that they're sent flying to the other side of my house: "My strength is overwhelming but it's even more so when paired with my intellect. Your chances of winning are so low." The others don't look the least bit concerned by my actions. Either they're overconfident or I've underestimated them.

The answer becomes clear when I catch a bullet with my bare hands. It hurts a lot and was a reckless move but I throw it back at them, doing some damage back in the process. After that, I decide to just dodge and when the moment is right, knock all of them unconscious by kicking them really hard. In the end, my house is a mess but I've literally moved out of it anyway. I should change my mail address. But there are bigger fish to fry: "Crap! This must have just been a distraction. I must find the others. The anarchist base is in a bar not far from here. Damn it." I effortlessly send the unconscious Nazis off elsewhere before finding the others waiting for me: "Adam! Your hands are bleeding! What happened in there? I shall heal you. Cure!" Just like that, my hands stop bleeding: "I got a little cocky in there. The Nazis weren't prepared to faced me one bit. I think it was just a distraction. I caught one of their bullets and threw it back to them. Okay, until I learn to control that mysterious power that's growing inside of me, I'm never doing that again. Anyway, I knocked them out and sent them to a couple tropical islands with no civilization on them as usual. I wonder how many enemies will change because we keep sending so many there to those kinds of islands." "Yar har! You didn't kill or seriously injure any of them? I thought you would at this point after that fight with Dragold and before him, Gillusion!" "Dude, we've been friends for a long time. You know as well as anyone that I don't like killing. Wait, you're just messing with me. But we have no time for goofing off. People's lives are in danger. We have to help them." The others nod and we race off to the bar where some anarchists are hanging out as it's a base for the movement. Amazing. Anarchists are really the only political group trying to defeat the Nazis. You'd think the communists and other socialists would too. Oh yeah, I know why. Unfortunately, the anarchists are the only ones left of the leftist groups because fascism and monarchies have been so strong that they indoctrinated all leftist groups in Miitopia out of existence.

Budding new communist and socialist movements have begun but they are so small, only we know about them and they are in remote hard to reach locations so far. We'll get their aid later when we have more time to meet with them. Anyway, we enter the bar to find carnage. A massacre was just carried out in here and there are a lot of Nazis inside, ready to kill anyone who dares to enter the bar. Immediately, a barrage of bullets rain down on us. They clearly don't care if they trash this place. I get in front of the others: "Let me take on the bullets! I will protect you my comrades and friends! Proud Protector!" I make sure to draw the full ire of these Nazis while holding my sword in a way to block many of the bullets. My armor take in the rest of the bullets. I will not allow them to hurt the others. Not when they've hurt so many already. But all of these Nazis are smirking as they suddenly switch to using much more high tech guns: "You antifa terrorists! We'll kill you in the name of Power and freedom! You first, so called knight! Groomers like you must die! Just like every single mii we found in this bar!" I twitch in anger and bawl my left hand into a fist. I lose control of myself. I will make them pay dearly. I will tear right through their flesh and leave them screaming in pain: "Damn you all! I'll kill each and every one of you without mercy! I can't wait to bathe in your misery and blood as it floods out of you! Die die die!" "Arr! Adam! Calm down and compose yourself!" "No! If you get in my way, you'll die a most gruesome death too!" A aura reminiscent of the elemental energy of darkness surrounds me. One of the Nazis scoffs: "You think that'll scare us! We've been waiting to kill the likes of you for decades!" At this moment, all of the negative feelings that have been held within my mind bubble to the surface and the aura turns pure black as those emotions combine with my very life energy. A sadistic smile appears on my face: "Your vile sense of freedom will die! All of you must die where you stand and bleed out as you beg for mercy and die! Killing all of you will be better than riding a roller coaster!"

"Adam! My friend! You shall not do that, you will not kill anyone! Come back to us!" Even as the high tech guns hurt me where they can and the pain stings as my nervous system practically screams: "No! I want to kill these scumbags and nothing will stop me, not even you! I don't care about morals or logic anymore! I just want to kill, kill, kill, kill! Revenge! The sweet chill of revenge! It'll be mine! Mine! Stand back or else not even your powers will be able to save you from my wrath! I just don't care anymore! As long as I kill and punish these lowlifes, I couldn't careless about anything else! I'll make them all die and crumble into heaps of scrumptious corpses, mangled up and twisted into impossible angles! This pain! This horrible pain! It fuels my rage and my desire, anyone who opposes me will be dead in minutes!" I let out a maniacal laugh before launching myself at the Nazis. The nearest one didn't see me coming. I slice his gun in half before kicking him in the nether region, punching his stomach, and crushing one of his joints: "Enjoy your status as my first victim! I'll make you hurt! I'll make you hurt so much and you'll die only to never find peace after it! All that's left for your destiny is suffering! So much suffering!" Now that the Nazi is struggling to breathe, I ruthlessly slice into his flesh many times. Many piles form on the floor below where we stand and where he crumbles. "Goodbye, vile Nazi. Your time in this world is over! Enjoy your pain and death, it'll only get worse until you no longer live!" I prepare to kill him but he vanishes: "Where did that arrogant fool go? Oh well. I have no time to look! I have to kill, kill all of you pathetic Nazis who are the ones who deserve hell for what you've done!" The next closest Nazi tries to shoot me in the eye but I move the air around the bullet with my sword so fast that it seriously injures a different Nazi instead. "This is what happens to scum like you! Your ways must be destroyed and all of you left for dead or outright killed!"

"Stunning Paralysis Cast!" "You think that's enough to stop me, Bray! Don't waste your time on me! I just want to kill and if you interfere, I'll kill you too!" "I just want my friend back. You're not yourself, Adam! Snap out of it!" "Never! I like killing now! It's my favorite hobby and interest! Stand back or I'll cut you and the others down to size too, leaving behind a trail of destruction not seen in years!" The smile remains plastered to my face even as the pain in my body only gets worse as more bullets break through the skin on part of my face. A different Nazi who has the look of a decorated war hero yells: "Listen here, son! You're in the way of a free utopia where we won't get cancelled ever again! You're going to be the next person we kill! Come on men, let's kill him!" The malevolent aura around me intensifies and my vision becomes slightly tinted with blood red: "There's little I care about besides killing now! But, I despise people like you among the most! You'll regret ever saying those words as your men fall like dominoes all while begging for me to spare their pitiful lives! Watch as I rip through them with one attack that will leave them screaming in pain and you trembling in fear! I'll be sure to make your suffering and despair last as long as possible! You stopped deserving to live the moment you became loyal to the cause of fascism!" More bullets continue heading my way but I have become numb to the pain by this point: "Hatred and rage and despair are my sources of motivation now! I despise you Nazis so much!" Suddenly, the malevolent aura goes into my sword, making it almost look like a demonic blade. "I don't have to use much of my power to crush you! Watch and suffer! And don't call me he! My name is not he, it's your doom! A simple attack will hurt you all nicely! Extremely Risky Spin Slash!" That one attack alone causes nearly ever Nazi left to get cut up pretty bad and fall to the floor. The bar sustains serious damages as a result.

I smile wider as the war hero trembles: "Now you know what it's like to fear someone who wants you dead. Now you understand a portion of my despair, my hatred, my fear, my rage. Run away, little man. Run home to your fellow bastards and never return while you still have working legs to carry you away. It'll be so much fun to watch you run away because deep down, you're a coward! I didn't even use 1% of my full strength. That was nothing, just like you!" "You inferior freak! I won't be bested so easily! I'll shoot you where you stand!" "Oh really? I'd like to see you try! Especially when my sword has much of my pain and life energy radiating through it! Try and hit me! I dare you and when you fail, I'll stab you once and slowly. And I'll gradually add to the punishment and soon, you'll be a dying heap on the floor, asking for forgiveness and mercy which you will never live to see be given to you!" "But I already have! I win and YOU die!" My heart throbs as I get a strange sensation that echos throughout my injured body. I gasp and collapse to my knees, coughing up blood as I do so. I drop my sword and weakly demand: "What have you done to me? What did you do? Answer me!" My body starts to slowly grow weaker: "Young lad, you would have made for a fine soldier if you had joined our cause instead. But now that you've hurt all of my men, you made me use a trick I was going to save for the real war, the microscopic poison bullet!" The aura vanishes from my sword and the red in my vision fades. "Damn it. What have I done? I abandoned everything but my hatred for you Nazis and my own suffering. Everything else hardly mattered to me! *throws up* I don't deserve this sword or the title of knight. I disgraced myself and my honor. This hurts. My anger is gone for now. All I feel is this pain and my fear tears.. I betrayed what I stand for and lost sight of nearly all my cares. I'm so ashamed of myself."

Bray immediately heals me and the bastard smirks, thinking he has won: "Adam. Don't be ashamed. If you must be then I should be as well. I allowed you, my friend to go awol. I am partly to blame for what has happened. I shall take care of this general for you easily. Let us take over the fighting for here. Stay there and rest. I can see that your body is shaking heavily even after I healed you of the poison and injuries." The general smirks again: "That makes our job easier! Thank you for falling into despair, foolish knight! Now men of mine, I cast Giga Pancrea! You antifa terrorists aren't the only ones with magic! But still, I like the guns more. Earth really does have many great destructive weapons!" Most of the men stand back up. They're fully healed and ready to fight: "You really think we would underestimate any of you after the humiliating assassination failure? If Adam was able to dispense countless troops with one attack, we knew we had to better prepare ourselves! Now come on men, let's kill them all." Thrashbeak starts flapping around and screaming after throwing up his sword and beginning to use it. At the same time, Herbsalvin runs to the door to block any chance of escape for the Nazis. Pirate Blaster pulls out his newly decided upon weapons. A plasma blaster and a long dagger before going on a rampage. Mel begins moving her sword really fast. Bray starts resurrecting and braking everyone she can. Everything around me becomes a blur as I sink deeper into despair because of how I failed myself. "Damn it. I was going to kill people who never stood a chance of killing me. I could have just sent them away but they killed so many miis who just wanted a better world. And now, the others are paying for my mistakes. If I had kept calm, we would have steamrolled these Nazis by now. This is the worst. I'm crying now. Tears are flowing at a rate I've never seen them flow in some time. I'm such a failure. I couldn't be myself when I needed to be. What do I do now? I have to make up for what I did but how? I'm in no shape to fight. Not when I feel like this."

Suddenly, a Nazi tries to shoot me but I dodge, even as I remain in no mental shape to fight. I have no desire to fight back so Bray takes them down for me before reviving more miis. Sigh. I guess I have to resolve this on my own. This is just not my day. Wait, I'm too stubborn to be put down like this. I make mistakes and bounce right back after learning to never make them again and think on the lessons I can take out of them. I shouldn't be moping. I should be strong and help my friends! I wipe the tears from my eyes and yell: "I realize now that I must keep going no matter what! I messed up badly just now but it isn't completely my fault! You Nazis started this and we'll finish it by figuratively obliterating you! I won't be stopped like that again! If I get sadistic again, I must be able to control myself and become balanced again! Bray! I'm going to watch your back as you heal all these miis! Just watch! I will regain my honor by making up for falling into so much negativity! And I admit it, I hate Nazis and fascism in general! I won't sugarcoat it. There are a number of individuals that I just despise! It's true! I'm not all good but I'm not all bad either! I'm just trying to be myself, be happy, help others, and survive! Let's put an end to these fools right here, right now and send them away to various unnamed tropical islands! When I get focused, nothing can truly stand in the way of what I'm focused on! Haaaaaaaa! My slip up will be outdone now! I will better manage my anger and hatred for now on! I can't just let myself love and forgive everyone who exists! I'm no Christian. That may be what they teach but I don't follow horseshit like that! But I only strike at someone who is inflicting pain onto others selfishly! That's my way, part of the convictions I have as a knight! It's okay to hate people as long as you have a actual real reason to hate and only harm them if they are causing cruel pain! Bigotry is not a actual reason to hate someone, it's crap that makes no logical or moral sense! Same goes for fascism and greed! Hatred must be controlled but not completely suppressed because it is a natural feeling!" Bray looks pleased to see me back in my groove: "I knew you'd resolve it yourself. Now then, I shall not let you or anyone else down either! It takes a lot out of me to bring someone back. I hope you do everything you can to protect me. I must avoid using my magic for anything other than what my goals currently are. I shall not let anyone die on us at the best of my ability!"

"Right! I have this in the bag! I will still fight like I'm trying to kill but I won't kill if it can be avoided! That is so long as there remains other reasonable solutions to stop these Nazis. But if those solutions don't work, I will have no choice! Haaaaaa! Leave the defense to me, Bray! And watch as I become a wall of flesh, brains, and metal that will not allow even a hair to touch you as you do the duty you have given yourself! Proud Protector!" My attack speed may be hindered by my pulling out my shield and actually using it but that matters little. I'm not trying to play offense right now. Besides, they say the greatest defense is also the greatest offense. The Superheavy Samurai monsters are more than enough proof of that. Many can attack while in defense mode. I stay around Bray and move as she moves, always making sure to circle around her whenever I move to block every single attack coming at her. These Nazis should have stuck with Miitopian jobs but they obviously didn't and that's not going to pan out well for them. This is how my honor will be regained. Protecting one of my best friends as she brings others back to life. This is exactly what we both needed. Eventually, she manages to successfully revive every single mii the Nazis killed and heal them all up but at a great cost. She collapses from exhaustion. She didn't bother to eat any HP bananas or MP candies or even sprinkle some magic Miitopian sprinkles on herself. Shit. I put my shield on my back which is where I have started to put it for now on when I bother to get it just in time to catch her before she falls to the ground as a sheath my sword for now. As that happened, the revived miis joined the battle and turned the tables on the Nazis. Not even a minute after they did, most of the Nazis have been defeated. The rest retreat after their general yells: "Let's get out of here! We don't stand a chance! Retreat!" Well, they would have if it weren't for Herbsalvin blocking the way out. The Nazis are about to shoot them when Thrashbeak catches up to them and stabs them all before Mel and Pirate Blaster join in on the stabbing. Due to this, they fall to the ground, hurt and defeated too.

Blaster frowns: "Now what in the treasure are we supposed to do with these delusional land disrespecters? Arr! I want to know! Do we make them walk the plank or be turned into cards at some point?" "What a pain. I don't know. Actually, nevermind. Let's take them in for questioning. Who knows what kind of intel we can get? Not a single one of them appears to be dead or dying so that's good news. I'm so sorry for my actions earlier. I wasn't myself and I haven't fully redeemed myself for what I did back there just yet. It will be a little time before I actually do so. I hope you understand what I'm getting at. But if you don't, I don't blame you in the least. It's partly my fault that this battle took longer and that I lost it and nearly killed all of these Nazis without any mercy or empathy." "It's okay, arr! You learned your lesson! That's what matters! Now, Thrashbeak. Are you able to swallow your sword as usual?" The parrot nods before swallowing it effortlessly. Dominic arrives at our location before his new powers alone: "Looks like I made it here in time. I can't wait to take a really long nap today. I'm supposed to be in bed right now. What a causation to want a nap even more. Ugh. I'll take care of these Nazis with my powers. Watch as I show you what the Entropy class can do. I'm too tired to explain what it all does so bare with me. Urg. Even saying that makes me want a nap even more. Molecular Lock!" With just his furiously typing hands and a magical keyboard that can alter reality, he causes mathematical style runes to appear around each Nazi. He presses the enter key on the keyboard and just like that, the Nazis are frozen in place like time has literally stopped for their whole bodies. "There. That was easier than I thought it'd be. I'm going to stay with you as I have visited every other group that split off to search and fight. I took care of an entire situation myself. We now have hundreds of Nazis in captivity. We were lucky. Ugh, I hate that term, luck. From a scientific point of view, luck shouldn't really be possible outside of games but it is anyway. How annoying, I just wanted to sleep peacefully in my bed tonight instead of tinkering with things until the sun rises. If it weren't for magic, tonight would have been a permanent death for many and an enormous bloodbath. I have a headache just imagining it. Oh no! Is that Bray, exhausted in your arms, Adam?"

I realize something quite bothersome so I reply: "Yes and annoyingly, this looks like the cliche of a man holding a woman in his arms after she has fainted or something. Kind of pisses me off as someone who is gay, non binary, and has a boyfriend. But nevermind, I really shouldn't care that much. Do you have anything that can restore Bray? I don't think the magical recovery items will do much good in this situation." "Oh yes! Just what I was working on 2 nights ago and had to be discouraged from finishing overnight by having Thrashbeak yell at me. I had a migraine for some time after I woke up the following morning. Thanks a lot, that was a serious causation to want a nap. But where did I put that healing solution? I swear it was in my pocket just in case. This is no time for this! I have to tell you of how the others are doing before we meet up with them in Citrus Cave. But if they need more help then that's all the more reason to hurry up and find that healing solution! It's the greatest consumable liquid I have ever concocted! Please tell me it's still with me and I didn't accidentally deconstruct it forever when I began teleporting with my powers! This is so demotivating! My eyelids are even heavier than they were when alarms woke up me!" After a few seconds, he finds out and his bored and frustrated facial expression turns into a rare triumphant grin: "Aha! There we go! It's here! Oh and Herbsalvin, you can stop blocking the way out. As for anyone who was killed and brought back, you can leave at your leisure. I can't believe I just said that. How draining. Anyway, I will administer this mixture myself! I tested it many times! It took several hours to get right but now that I have the ingredients and instructions written out, that won't happen again! I managed to make Fluffy's hair catch on fire with one of the failed versions as he decided to be the test subject for reasons even I don't know!" He gets the liquid inside of Bray directly from the glass beaker it was in. In seconds, Bray wakes up with a rare energized look on her face: "Thanks, Dominic. I heard everything. So will you share what you gathered now? I shall listen intently, my friend."

"Of course, of course! My desire to want a nap has further decreased. Okay. For those of you sticking around, you might want to hear me speak as well." One of them steps forward and replies: "Thank you. We will. But first, we owe all of you our lives. If it weren't for you, we would have been over permanently and prematurely. I can't express my own gratitude enough. It's nice to finally meet all of you. My name is Sanuman. I founded the Miitopian People's Revolutionary Front with some of my friends. We received your notice that the Nazis would be attacking today but it wasn't enough. I would speak more but the intel is vital. Share everything you know now, Dominic. I'll relay it to everyone else with a simple spell. I am a mage after all." Sanuman has green-brown hair that is really tall and sticking up, amber eyes, brown skin, and silver and blue mage robes with simple brown leather shoes. Dominic replies: "I will. But I'd like to get everything else over with as soon as possible too. Anyway, here's the rundown. Another thing I never thought I'd say. Ugh. Greenhorne Village was overrun. The robots from Twisted Land should have been enough to defend it but I guess not. Luckily, the team of Madeline, Robert, Lauren, and Julia managed to evacuate everyone on our side from the village and move them far underground for now. However, the teams that tried to protect other areas of Greenhorne failed and were seriously injured. They're all okay and safe now but it was bad. A lot of miis still died by the time the Nazis occupied Greenhorne Castle and proclaimed the Greenhorne Empire. In short, we lost all of Greenhorne. In Realm Of The Fey, things are going much better. The teams sent there have been wounded a lot but they defeated the bands of Nazis who were trying to take it over. Elsewhere, the same general things happened. Teams got hurt, as many miis were evacuated as possible to safe locations, and a lot of miis were killed. If it weren't for us, they would have rounded up everyone who even dared to question them in their own heads one entire time and kill them. The meeting in Citrus Cave will begin soon. We must get going as soon as we can."

With that said, we all gain despairing expressions on our faces before heading there together with the resurrected comrades. Unlike last time, Citrus Cave is packed with comrades. Over a thousand because it isn't just knights and BRAINS members that are here. There's members of other guilds and more here such as former leaders of places around Miitopia who have abandoned what they used to believe to embrace the fight for a peaceful Miitopia that is as free of hatred and greed and power as possible with no more states or fascist organizations causing problems, dividing the people, and creating lies. But before we could start it, the actual ground shook as screams filled the air. The oldest Fab Fairy, Grace gets everyone's attention by firing a Dancing Arrow at the nearby cave wall: "Listen everyone. Stay calm. We need to be rational about this or else they'll kill us all. Be patient and think clearly. Don't worry about what's going on out there. The elves can handle it. That's why they aren't here with us. Every nation within this land called Miitopia has declared war on this peaceful place, Realm Of The Fey. That was the last straw. So we need to figure out what to do or loss everything we hold dear in this world. Once we're gone, they'd be no one left to really stop them from taking over this entire world. That includes the Tomodachi Islands. If you wish to speak, please raise a weapon of yours. We can't talk at once because then we'd get nothing done." I raise my sword and all eyes turn to me: "We should declare war on them back. It won't be much. At least, theoretically. But, it is only proper to do so and well, it'll help us vent some of our anger about all of this. That's my take on what we should do." After much discussion, everyone agrees to that. To add, I get a message from my fellow Minecraftia BRAINS members. I get everyone's attention again: "I have some good news already. The Minecraftian anarchists have agreed to help us fight this war. The fragile peace that has kept Miitopia seemingly unified is gone. We'll have to fight a lot of individuals but having them help lessens the strain on us." Minutes later, the Elven-Fairy Union, the anarchist commune that now runs Realm Of Fey officially declares war against the nations of Miitopia.

The meeting continues from there but let me spare you the boredom. We all agree to share a lot more information and to finish preparations to resist right away. Each and every one of us will also work on creating social revolutions while also sparking rebellions over the next few weeks. The meeting ends with lots more intel shared. It's time to resist more than ever. By the time the meeting ends, it's 4:30 in the morning. I drink a sleeping potion for once in my life to get some actual sleep. It works and I wake up at 12 PM to get lunch and go out on a mission to spread the revolution. I choose Peculia to go to. What I wasn't expecting was there to be so many miis suddenly living in Peculia. There's even a town near that creepy and big dimly lit mansion now which I so happened to teleport to with Herbsalvin who just had to come with me. We share a deep bond now. A friendship, a special friendship. I met and tamed them as my first trial to become a knight. Thanks to them, we were able to rush to that bar earlier without any trouble. They can see clearly in the dark while most of us cannot sadly. We approach the nearest mii we spot. They appear to be a shopkeeper who sells beautiful flowers: "Hello there. My name is Adam and this is Herbsalvin. I was just wondering what you think about the current state of affairs in Miitopia. I get it, sudden and random question. But to us, it's important to know what the people think." "It's you! See that poster over there? You're wanted dead or alive! POLICE! I NEED THE-" I put a hand over their mouth. I should have known they would be suspicious considering all I can see of them is a flower themed cloak that conceals their entire body inside: "Don't be like that. The Nazis want me dead because I'm trying to stop them from inflicting more pain onto others. They may control nearly the whole of Miitopia but that won't stop us." They force my hand off their face: "How dare you say that! They protect children from gender ideology!" "Stop being foolish. It's all lies. There is no such thing as gender ideology. But if there was, it would perfectly describe the false gender binary. Wake up. The status quo of hatred has blinded you."

"I will never change my mind about something like this! What I know is the truth and only the truth!" "Well then, I have no choice." I promptly show them some footage of the massacre I helped undo before it was undone: "Now do you see what they really are?" "Those brave men cleansed this world of filth like them!" "There is no getting through to you, huh? I don't believe it. You complicit fool. If that won't work, let me share with you my pain and my hopes. My hope is for a peaceful Miitopia where greed, lies, and deceit do not increase anyone's power. All individuals should be equal, money must be abolished. Peace, happiness, care, and cooperation. That's the kind of society I want. The society you love so much is so intent on hurting and punishing people that forgiveness is almost impossible as is reform and redemption. You're being used. Many of my friends and I were planned to be shot and killed last month. For being ourselves, we are labeled as a danger. A danger for going against strict and rigid norms that don't really help anyone have a better life. Do you not get it? Do you not see how they're using you? I watched as 3 of my closest friends were shot brutally and had to use my cape as makeshift tourniquets. Are you okay with others killing other miis because those miis annoy them? Do you not remember what the SDL did to this world?" "You're just making this up! I know so!" "Why would I lie about this? Why would I make up pain and suffering? I don't want power. I just want to grow stronger, to be happier, to finally be free. I've died several times, I've watched my comrades die or almost die multiple times, I've nearly died many times. My mom is dead. My family is a disappointment. I have scars from my past. Many on my body, many in my mind. I feel some semblance of despair or fear practically every day. Why? Because the system is designed to silence people like me by any means necessary to get the job done. If this isn't enough to convince you then I will just show you my scars and share painful memories. The people in power have it so easy. They can do whatever they want without being punished for it. No one else here can say the same for themselves."

"You're just playing victim!" "Am I? Does this new scar look like a lie to you? *lifts up helm to reveal it* See how it's purple, even now? The poison is gone but it still scarred the skin." I proceed to show them a bunch more scars and they gasp: "Come with us and join the revolution. Abandoned your belief on false idols. They don't want you as more than just a clueless pawn. They'd make your flowers die if it made them a few gold coins. I can guarantee that much. This is reality. Reality hurts. It hurts a lot. The world I come from is quite beautiful but it used to be much more beautiful. The largest rainforest is getting burned and cut down for wealthy humanity's disgusting greed. Temperatures are reaching records at an unprecedented rate. Warming has never been so fast in recorded geologic history. Deny it all you want but hatred and greed make life forms rule and dominate, crushing everything they think or actually does stand in their way like trans rights for example. Is that the Miitopia you want? A land that is slowly dying as most of its people live in legal slavery so the rich and powerful can reap most of the benefits for just themselves? Amazing." After some talking, I get them to go for Nazi sympathizer to resistance member. Luckily, their brain clearly hadn't fully developed yet. I give them some information before putting some flyers around and stuff like that. Once dinner came close to being served, I headed back and left Peculia. We serve it at the same time nearly every day back at base. Over dinner, we all discussed the fruits of our labor. We only managed to pick up a few new allies but it's certainly better than none. I just hope the issues we're going to run into directly thanks to Pmurt Nedib won't mess with our war effort. The Nazis have much more support because Miitopia is systemically corrupt at its core. There is so much evidence for such lying around. It really isn't that hard to see if you keep your mind open and embrace the compassion and the magic. I learn that there's been a lot of hostility towards our cause. Even with the support of Realm Of The Fey's entire population, Greenhorne Village, the Miitopian guilds, and the previous reputations we've had, the Nazis are much more popular.

Not surprising since Nazi scum are really good at manipulating and hurting people to get what they want. They have clouded the minds of many with ridiculous crap such as bigotry and greed. That stuff is detrimental to overall happiness and well being. So much needless pain and for what? The Nazis in charge are the only ones free and happy. Everyone else is delusional, suffering, or trying not to worry about their pain and probably doing nothing about solving it. I go to sleep peacefully hours later after doing some sparring despite knowing that the illusion of safety we have won't last forever.

Outro: And that's the chapter! It is the final chapter of the build up towards the war. In the next chapter, rebellions against fascism will be revealed and talked about. You'll see what I mean if you read it once it's out. To hell with Novelww. Don't lose hope. We can stop this from happening in our world. It isn't too late just yet. Keep thinking independently. Keep resisting. Drag the Nazis through the mud. Make sure their horrible plans are exposed and show people that they cannot be allowed to rule over the world more than they already do. See you in the next one.
