Fated (Chapter One)

[tanadin]

The first chapter to the third part of the Monstrous trilogy!
This follows the story of the descendants, 200 years after the events of Residual (discounting epilogue) and the re-emergence of the Hostiles.

Now, you're probably looking at the tags and getting a bit concerned. EVERY chapter will be tagged with 'mention of character death' to A) avoid spoilers and B) to remind you that Fated is brutal. Remember the Residual epilogue? Yeah.

So let's do this.

The MindCrackia Revolution (4th of July Special)

[subliminalcircles]

I have a late prompt AND MindCrack Origins to write, but this is 'Murica, so those can wait
Welp, as you all know, it's the 4th of July, aka MURICA DAY HECK YEAH. *cough* Independence day, yeah.
This is a MindCrack version of Paul Revere's Midnight Ride. I wish it could've been longer being at 875 words, but I spent 3 hours on this (4 if you count the research I did; it's been 5 years since I've studied this stuff) and I just want this out. xP
I tried making this as accurate as possible, (besides all the edits did to make this a MindCrack independence story) so several things stated in here may be different than you thought. For example, the riders said "The Regulars are out," not "The British are coming!" The reason that is is because if they described them as the 'British,' they would also be referring to the colonies, for they were British too. Another very overlooked fact is the importance of Samuel Prescott, but you'll learn about that in the story.
If you know the riders, towns, and other terms related to this story, you shall see the puns I made to make this a story about MindCrack's independence. c:
I think I got everything out of the way, so in that case, MERRY 'MURICA DAY!!! :D
