We can see lights through the trees.
They should not be there, were told this was a safe place and no one would know we were here. We testified for the authorities, though we had no choice and we were promised safety.
They put us in this cabin in the middle of nowhere and left us.
We switched our lights off as soon as we noticed theirs but they may have seen ours and may know that the cabin is here.
We are frightened.
The authorities said they would be back in a month, that was yesterday. Also, they would not come at night. That is why we are sure it is someone coming to deal with us.
It was our testimony that put some of them behind bars.
The lights are closer now.
We have nowhere to go, we watch through the windows as they walk into the space in front of the cabin.
They have guns and axes.
We are silent.
The door is smashed with an axe ........

Darkness Came
Introduction This is the result of a request for the genesis of VDU154 which you can read here. Darkness Came The world was close to perfect. Everyone was happy and looked out for everyone else. Poverty, hunger and homelessness no longer existed and everyone was connected by a system that was known colloquially as "The Grid" installations of VDU devices that allowed people to share thoughts and ideas with everyone else.

The Devil's Cut
βComrade, finally youβre awake.β The voice was smooth, sensual. A flickering incandescent bar was all that lit the white, sterile room. All Vladimir remembered was everything going black. He tried to move his arms and found them strapped to the gurney.
