No one ever believed it would happen. It was something seen in movies and in countries halfway across the globe. It began, slowly at first, so gradual no one even realized it - The new regime voted into office was never challenged, and once unrealistic restrictions were placed on residents, it was too late to do anything. The power of the people was gone, leaving everyone vulnerable to a government that was no longer a democracy. A government that now had full control, where common people's rights were stripped away, crippling a once thriving society. People who don't comply with the new government's laws are labeled a DEFIANT and placed on a list where they are closely monitored. Rationing on groceries, gas, and supplies is implemented, and Defiants can be imprisoned or killed for breaking the rules. There is no justice, no courts, no jury of peers to decide the Defiant's fate - the decision lies within the officials of the new regime, who have executed Defiants for trying to sustain their basic human needs. Knowing the ultimate consequence is death for failing to comply, people are forced to make decisions - do they give up freedoms under the new regime and avoid prison or execution? Or do they fight back, forming a great uprise to get the nation back to the way it was before the new regime took office?
