Imagination is very important

Metals clanging, machinery whirring, hammers pounding in a cycle. Everyone was hard at
work under British colonial rule. The British were ruthless and the people wouldn’t even be
spared a second to rest. Ever since the British started colonizing, some weren’t at peace.
So, they planned to flee.

They packed all of their belongings and sneaked onto an abandoned boat. While they were
at it, the British caught them red-handed in their act, only for them to capture 3 people from
the bunch. To them, it only mattered as long as they were nowhere near the British colony.
Hour after hour after hour relentlessly finding a place to stay, they found an island.

They explored the island and found 2 people who also fled from the British. Eventually
unpacking and settling down for the night.

Back there under British colonial rule…

It was a simple day in the small and beautiful country , located somewhere near
east asia. People were laughing and chattering as they worked, children were
dancing without care and the old people were adoring them. Happiness was
running through their veins, not knowing the danger that they would soon face.
Most of the villagers were gathered under the hot sun when suddenly, they heard
a loud noise. A gunshot. A clatter of hooves on the ground. Then it stopped. The
frightened citizens look around curiously until their eyes were locked on the
group of five in front of them.

“who is your president?” asked the one at the front.

The citizens were looking at each other, left and right

“we have a president ah?” asked a one of the citizens in reply to the question
asked.

They laughed.

One of the soldiers moved closer to the one at the front. “uh, ma’am. I don’t
think they have a president.”

“fine then. Who is your leader?” she asked again


The citizens looked around, whispering

“where is the leader?” an old lady asked

The one at the front had a short temper, shouted loudly

“where is your leader?!!!”

The fear in the citizens were growing. Were was their leader?

Just then, the door to a nearby house burst open, revealing the leader and her
assistant.

“what is the meaning of this?” the leader asked angrily.


“forgive me. Where are my manners? I am Vithika, and these are my mates,
tharSHAHnee, irdina and ratchika. We come from great Britain and we are here
to take over your town.” Smirks

“you cant do that!” the leader shouted

“oh, yes I can. I even have a letter from the queen herself.”

Hands the letter

leader pretends to read, clears throat and passes it to her assistant.

Assistant sighs.

Assistant reads the letter. Explains to the leader

“so, now” shoots the gun upward then points to the leader. “kneel before me.”
Smirks
