***4 February 2005 – Me or my family

 

Aaricia watches the Imperial announcement on the Holonet: Aaricia Silverstar, turn yourself in or your family will be executed. You have 3 standard days left.

She gasps, especially when she sees the pictures of the people she knows so well..

Her father, her mother, her brother..

No, they’ll kill them, she has to turn herself in. This cannot be allowed to happen!

She wipes a tear from one of her eyes..

 

She thinks about last weeks and clenches her fists as anger is replacing her fear..

Ok you mother@#$ want me, you'll get me! But not without any complications.. IF I decide to die I'll do this as a martyr! I'll get the people with me.. maybe you get me, but with this action I'll drag as many people as possible into the resistance.. the rebellion won't die, it will get better. More and more people will join us. One person may die but many will join the rebellion because of this!

I'm not afraid anymore..

Not anymore, after what you did to me a week ago..

 

You better first rest some and think about this, don’t make a decision yet, a little voice in her head tells her.

Yeah I better get some sleep.. I still have the weekend, I still got some time to think about it.. but the most part of the night she isn’t able to sleep. She has nightmares... about last weekend, about her family, about the future, about death..
