Interview

A Story by Cj

Toby gets interviewed

"Yes, that's great. Okay, shall we start? Yes. Welcome to our 5th annual show, and today as our guest we have Toby Chunter! Hello Toby, you are here with me, and the audience will be asking you some questions, are you okay with that?"

Toby looks around and clears his throat "Ah, yes, yes, of course"

"Well, obviously, because that's the point of this show. So let us begin. Any volunteers who want to start?"

For a few seconds no one says anything, but then a couple of hands rise.

"Okay, that blonde lady in the middle, you can start"

The lady stands up, and quite loudly proceeds "I would like to ask, what is going on between you and Jessie? It's been all over the internet lately, that you two started going out. Is that true?"

Toby stares with astonishment "What? I'm sorry, but this is too personal," he turns to the interviewer "I thought you said they won't ask stuff like this!"

"Sir, calm down, I warned them, I assure you this won't happen again"

Toby watches as the lady is being taken out by the police. This is too much. What are they doing? Why? Is this all his fault?

"Well, let's continue. Now, the boy with a black shirt, your question?"

"Uhm, Mr. Chunter, i just wanted to know, how did you make everyone like you?" as he finishes his question, some murmuring can be heard in the crowd.

"It's pretty complicated, actually. The thing is, not everyone likes me. Many don't, but no one knows of them, because the police make sure they are silenced. And I hate this, okay. I didn't want all of this to be like that. This is wrong. You should realize what they're doing is wrong. You should flee before it's too late. You..." he doesn't finish, as his bodyguards are dragging him out of the stage. He can hear shouts and moving from the crowd. "Yes! YES! YOU WON'T BE ABLE TO STOP EVERYONE!" and then he feels a syringe in his neck. Before he completely blacks out, he sees the outside. They broke through. They did it.
