The crazy one!
The whole landscape looks black and white, I am calm in my corner, I listen to the vibrations! I feel that this mission should not be the last one!
A little further from me is my twin! He is not in a good spot, I feel he is in danger! Before I have the time to think the officer approaches me and whispers to me… You should be more careful ..In this battle we are simultaneously all together and everyone individually that should not allow our feelings to endanger us!
A soldier leaned over to us and wanted to take part in this small talk as fot the battle…
The Officer once he saw him turned his face look like into a lion… What do you want here again? Didn’t I tell you not to approach me again? He almost shouted making us both nod him not to shout cause he will betray our positions !!
He turned red-faced and looked me straight into my eyes… He leaned on my shoulder and whispered to me… Do not let this skunk affect you… Move away from him!
He shrugged my shoulder, gave the most humiliating look at the soldier and left crouching to the bottom of our side!
I was stunned by his behavior..I looked at the soldier to find out what made the officer to lose his temper and I saw a petite man with a funny face and eyes that were sparkling like children’s light whirlpools… I tried to follow his restless eyes and I got dizzy! ..
..Hey dude, calm down… What’s up?
..I’m fine. You? he asked but his eyes were scanning the landscape like machine-gun bursts!
..Are you always like that? Υou need to calm down a bit… I answered trying to make him stop this scanning!
At the same time a horse passed over our pit and made us both fall down facing each other. I felt stepping on my soul because of fear!
Now I thought that the eyes of the petite soldier’s eyes would start to turn around like demons eyes… I looked at him timidly so as not to make me throw up from dizziness and I saw a serene face looking into my eyes with absolute composure!
..Are you scared ..he asked me?
..I pissed my pants, not just scared…
..And what did you win? ..he asked me again
..What?
..Why are you here ? he asked again
..Are you kidding me? I answered back !
..Not at all but I wonder what we do here. He said ..
..We fight for our ideas, for our common goals, for our visions! I answered with courage to bring him up!
..And why are you sure that all these are ours? .. he said to me with incredible audacity !!
..I do not understand you, mate, I answered starting understanding the officer!
..We are here fighting for us , while others give commands to us, those who take orders from others and others and so on… How can the ideals, that we fight for, remain the same through this broken phone?
…What? We are in a trench during a battle and you want to start a philosophical discussion? ..I shouted… and shat on my knees!
..Are we? …Is this our battle? he asked again looking incredibly calm!
I was staring at him like a fool, I had the feeling of absolute disgust ..this man was unfortunately totally crazy and I found my self meeting him in the middle of a battle! Maybe I felt quite sad cause I realized my bad luck!
I’m not too sure we’re in the middle of a fight, he said and for a while his eyes started flickering again. I often hear instead of shootings, a clock ringing slowly and torturously, while strange voices saying to me sharp and strange words; talking about the king and the queen…and then I hear… many people applauding… I deeply understand that I must be the opponent who is across someone else but I feel I have no enemies ..I just feel that someone else wants to make me believe that everyone is across is an enemy!…
I kept listening to him, inside the battlefield with one more intense sob. I could not believe what was happening at that moment! On the other hand, I felt sorry for the poor guy, he would not escaped alive being that brainless!
..Do you hear the voices? he asked me with interest!
I did not answer, I remained quiet so as not to let him develop his schizophrenia!
..I do not only listen to the voices but I also listen to the commands, I feel like someone orders me do this, do that! But trust me that even those who give us orders take orders from elsewhere, and those from above and so on, and on and on, and on and on…
I jumped and shut his mouth off since the petite one had escaped and was almost screaming, my adrenaline reached its limits…My eyes were blurred while I was pushing him deeper and deeper to the ground, but an opposite force was lifting him up high…I was terrified, I did not know what was happening, I once wanted his face in the ground but now I was holding him against an unknown force that was lifting him in the air!
I had put all the strength I had to hold him down but the petite soldier began to rise in the air in front of my frightened eyes. I saw in his face a huge joy, he was almost smiling…
… And now I hear the voices… he told me!
I leaned like a rubber out of the trench to hold him ..and then I heard them too…
The soldier in E8 turns into a Queen ..CHECK MATE…. Without being able to breathe anymore I raised my eyes… a huge pendulum was above the battlefield and two huge black figures were moving two huge edges like hands! ..The light dazzled me… Then I heard again clearly and loudly… Mr. Breznik the winner of the local Barcelona tournament! The supreme federal body decided to cancel the Mr. Palton’s victory! The world’s federation will start the world championship on October 16 !!
I fell down on the ground almost unconscious, the ground was now clearly like a black and white floor, a little further the officer fallen down, dead… the horse passed by me… that’s why they call him crazy, cause he attacked the queen alone…. he whispered to me!
Stranger… We will only win if we become post-players ..if we go completely out of their battlefield… only if we move to non-existence ..or if we move to I am not… or to I AM EVERYTHING!
