                  “This is why I wanted you to escape,” cried Liron.
                  “I lost my voice, now my freedom?”

                  It was a sunny day, as always,

                  I fell down, scraped my knees. I cried so loud but nobody
            came, but it taught me to become stronger!

                  “Your  army  has  been  captured.  Surrender  or  we’ll  kill
            them!” the soldiers said.
                  No. It didn’t make any sense. It did not make any sense at
            all.

                  “Kill me, Liron! Kill me!” I coughed up blood. “If you’re
            gonna betray me then go all the way!”
                  “I can’t!” The dagger fell, making a sharp clang. He covered
            his face with his hands. And I started to laugh. Nothing made sense
            from the start. It had been me and my crazy ambitions.

                  I threw myself on the ground and started to laugh. I didn’t
            care if I looked crazy, because I had been crazy from the start.
            People didn’t listen to me because I was crazy. I’d lost my voice
            because I was crazy. People with crazy opinions didn’t have any
            rights to begin with.

                  Nothing made sense, yet the logic was perfect. I laughed
            and laughed.
                  Then, I used the tear gas and escaped.
