muse_manifesto 16: If you could change one moment in your past, what would it be?

May 05, 2007 12:56

Only one thing? I think there’s more than one thing in my past that I’d want to change. Ben and Zack would be those things. But you asked what one thing about my past that I’d change. If that’s the case then it would most definitely be Ben instead of Zack. Despite the fact that Zack blew his own brains out just so I could have his heart which is now beating in my chest.

No… see the outside world didn’t settle right with Ben. Manticore and the outside world broke him. And sometimes, no most all of the time, I feel bad for that. I know it isn’t something I could’ve controlled or predicted. I mean none of us knew what was out there. None of us knew what in the hell we were getting ourselves into. We were nine years old… and soldiers of Manticore. What did we know of the outside world yet? Nothing.

But back to what I’d change concerning my big brother, Ben. I wouldn’t of let us get separated. I would’ve been there with him each step of the way. And when Hannah found me I would’ve taken my brother with me. We both would’ve been safe. And when I left her he would’ve too. We would’ve grown up together learning about the outside world. Living it. Finding a way to make a living. He wouldn’t of been broken. He would’ve been perfectly fine.

I wish that’s the way it had been and if I could change anything. That right there would be it.
