The date is August 8 175AG within my nation the Earth Empire Rebellion no longer has the power to do the actions they did when they first began. Many of its members have been apprehended and charged with treason. Though there are some actions I don’t agree with. The guards would often arrest people that were “suspected” of being members of the rebellion. Any innocents were released though the conditions of the prisoners weren’t the best.  Their necessities weren’t of highest quality and they were forced to do laborers and when they were released the army and government did not provide them with as much compensation as they should have since the funds main focus “had to go to frightening off the rebels.” And it’s not just that many people ended up losing their jobs, education, insurance and homes, and quite a lot of unnecessary paperwork needed to be filed to get these things back since they were once “suspected” rebels at one point and “precautions” were needed to ensure that rebel behavior is quenched. Fortunately, my parents made sure that violence towards civilians was not tolerated under any circumstances from the guards, especially if they were proven to be innocent. And they would have all their basic needs though my parents allowed discrimination for safety and security reasons and to “encourage civilians” to not  not commit rebellious actions. I personally don’t agree with discrimination and why should law obeyers who help the country be discriminated against just over suspicions.     

 I don’t know what to say but if my parents say anything about the arrests of innocence being necessary or the compensation accurate I will shut them down because there is never any justification for the mistreatment of civilians.

However, I am aware that they are still better than other leaders of the past though that still does not justify these actions in particular.

Though I will still support the majority of their decisions because they are genuinely good leaders and good parents as I try to be a good daughter. And that bond of joy and care must never be taken for granted it is a thing of beauty.

I smiled as I woke up this morning. I will finally see my parents after all these past few months. I made myself presentable and ten went to enjoy a little breakfast wit tem wit happiebness as they do for me.

“Your mother and I are very glad to see you.” Dad said with a warm smile.

“It is good to see you too, you’ve been aware for too long.” I said.

“Yes though action is needed to be taken in order to fend off the rebel scum while some of the actions weren’t desirable but necessary to prevent further rebellious actions.” Dad stated looking a little guilty. 

I know what he’s talking about and I know it’s wrong innocents shouldn’t be discriminated simply to prevent suspicion though rebellious actions still need to be prevented especially when they result in injuries and pain even if I agree with their cause.
“Yes it is unfortunate when precautions are need to be placed on civilians though if it’s to prevent serious actions it does make sense…. To an extent just try not to go so hard next time.” I said.

“You needest worry about our job Ditzy decisions need to be made and we do not wish to frighten you since we may not see eye to eye on everything.” Mom said.

“And so don’t fill yourself with worry oh that reminds me. Hunny I think we should tell Ditzy the good news.” Dad spoke in a wholesome voice.

“What good new?” I asked with curiosity.

“Well a few weeks ago your father and I realized something and you’ve been wanting this since you were little.” Mom said happily.

“Oh what would be?” I asked unsure what they meant but willing to know.

“Ditzy you remember how you’ve always wanted a sibling.” Mom spoke with a smile.

A big smile formed on my face and great joy formed in my heart as I realized what was going on.

“You’re having a baby.” I said with joy.

“Yep I’m pregnant.” Mom said.

“Wonderful when is it due?” I asked.

“On the 13 of April and it’s a girl.” Mom answered. 

“Wonderful what are we gonna name her?” I asked. 

“Your mother and I decided to name her Kiara.” Dad said.

“Oh that’s a wonderful name.” I said.

“Thank you Ditzy we needed to make sure you found out specially.” Mom said.

“Aww thank you I’m sure the subjects will be overjoyed.” I said.

They gave me looks of a bit of fear as well as seriousness.

“We haven’t told the public yet because of the fact that your father and I being the leaders of the empire it is clear certain scum would go as far as to try to harm the baby.” Mom said. 
It is quite a sorrowing truth that certain people who have resent towards my parents would go after their own child simply for being their children. It is wrong and unjustified and the reason my parents are so worried for my safety for they know people would go after me for personal reasons and that is why I can not tell them about the multiverse or it’s evils that I must face. For I know they would prevent my actions in order to keep me safe even though I know they are necessary in providing protection and equality from all those little shits. And if they were to find out it wouldn’t just put my parents in danger, the empire, as well as the rest of the world but it 

“It is quite unfortunate some ruffians would go so far as to harm an unborn do not worry I will do all in my power to protect her as you do for me.” I said.

“We are glad to hear that your sister will need all the protection she can get it. It’s saddening you both won’t be able to experience certain parts of life your mother and I are sorry it has to be that way.” Dad said with a bit of guilt.

“Yes it is rather sorrowful consisting of the circumstances though that does not mean joy cannot be found still and so I’ll find the joy and be grateful for the blessings of life.” I said. Those were the words they wanted to hear the words they needed to hear I must keep them all safe. Deceit is not something I would like but most for I love them and I must protect them along with the world and it’s not like my life is horrid for I have friends, family, a lover, my passions, the ability to help people, as well as a new sister soon, and so I will remember this and find joy and hope.

“Thank goodness you find the light in everything.” Mom said happily.

“How can I not I’m going to be a sister my life couldn’t be better.” I said It was the truth for once.
