?Red or Blue
Once
upon a time , there is a group of devils lived in the underworld.
Everything was stupendous ,calm ,quite and full of sweet screams of
tortured people. The red sky and the smell of burnt flesh was
fascinating. Each devil works thoroughly and peacefully. Everything
was going great. Suddenly,A devil called Azel decided to change this
typical system and become the first king of hell. Azel was so
ambitious and had a sharp mind without mercy. Azel started to invite
other devils to believe in him and rebel against the current system.
Some devils believed in him,but the majority did not .He decided to
combat other devils with his followers. He collected and constructed
the first army in the hell .Azel gave the first speech in the hell
saying ‘’we should seek freedom ‘’ .He repeated it three
times. The devils did not understand or know this word,but they
began repeating it .Azel’s followers made weapons such as spears
and forks .Then,the devils started combat each other. Azel won after
killing a lot of innocent devils. He became the king he had dreamed
to be .Although no devil understood the meaning of the word ,they
wrote it everywhere inside the hell. The dark red sky was turning
blue slowly,but no one paid any attention to the change
.Thereafter,Each devils came back to his work as before rebellion
except Azel who lived in a high hill alone. The devils asked it why
Azel did not work with them as usaual. There is a devil called Zzeel
who answered saying’’Azel is working on freedom for you on the
high hill’’.Then,he started to repeat ‘’freedom’’,and so
did the devils. After long time,the devils waited for Azel to keep
his promise and give them what is called freedom. Zzeel convinced
them that freedom is very difficult and massive thing it needs more
time ,and without Azel they would not reach it .Zzeel said ‘’you
have to double your effort ,so you can produce more fire and torture
more human to get freedom’’.Zzeel was eloquent and
convincing.’’freedom ,freedom,freedom’’said the devils
.Therefore,Azel admired his intelligence,and promoted him as the
upper hand in the hell .Again,the devils asked Azel where is
freedom?Azel realized that the real danger facing him is the devils
who always ask and wonder about the thing called freedom. Thus,he
built the first prison in the hell .It was big and blue. It was
terrifying and horrible. He began sending devils who speak so much
there accusing him treason. The devils did not understand the word
‘’treason’’,but they started to repeat it ,and attacking
everyone taken to prison. At this moment,Azel was living in a high
castle on the hill guarded by strong devils. The sky was turning more
blue and blue. Azel wanted more authority,so he decided to invade
heaven. He claimed that angels had stolen freedom from them. He
constructed a huge armed forces,and crawled with them toward heaven.
Azel was defeated ,and a lot of devils got killed in a useless war.
He withdrew from the battle. He gave another speech saying ‘’we
should seek revenge’’.Devils did not understand the word
‘’revenge’’,but they began to repeating it as usual. Azel
imposed taxes and asked devils to produce more and more fire. Azel’s
castle got bigger and bigger. Everyone was afraid of Azel that he
could not speak about him or his big castle. Azel decided to attack
the heaven again,but he was defeated,too. He imposed more taxes and
took many devils to prison accusing them treason.Azel realized that
he does not need war just to give him more authority,but he needs it
to keep him run the hell. He recognized that he could not live
without war.War keeps devils afraid fo him and obeying him .The
devils became weak and exhausted . Most of devils were angry,but they
could not declare their anger.Zzeel wanted the throne.He started to
play on their anger .He started instigating devils to rebel aginst
Azel. Zzeel was stimulating them to fight aginst Azel’s guards.He
said’’Azel betrayed you and took all freedom for himself.we have
to take it back and keep it in a safe place ‘’.Moreover,Zzeel
made lots of conspiracies aginst Azel.At this moment,The land beneath
the devils’ feet is turning green.Zzeel accumulated an army
crawling towards Azel’s castle on the hill.It was bloody battle
.All Azel’s guards got killed.Zzeel walked through the castle
holding his fork.’’here you are,my friend’’Azel said.Zzeel
said ‘’it is your end ,Azel.what do you wish?’’.Azel said ‘’I
wish the sky became red again’’.Zzeel cut his throat.He held his
head in front of all devils,and said’’This is
freedom’’.Suddenly,the devils started to kill each others happily
and hysterically.Zzeel was shoked and surprised.He did not know why
they were doing so until he had got a stab from his loyal follower.He
said’’why’’.The devil said happily with a pure smile on his
face ’’It is freedom’’ ,and killed himself after that.The sky
is totally blue .The land is totally green.The beautiful hell became
the earth.What a Earth !!
