Jiang Ying Yue (9)

The next day came yet Jiang Ying Yue couldn't wake up due to being trapped in a never-ending nightmare. 

The fire was devouring her world. She was dying. She could see herself struggling to breathe while her body was being engulfed by the fire. Why couldn't she leave? Why was she trapped in that room? No, it was not even a room, but a cage... Why was she being watched, pointed at and being cursed to die by hundreds of thousands of people? 

Jiang Ying Yue felt very scared and confused, and her heart was aching so much. She was suffocating, feeling as if the world was intentionally depriving her of air.

She couldn't understand why nobody was helping her and freeing her from her sufferings. What did she do to deserve this?

The same questions kept playing in her mind. 

The images flashing in her mind changed after she saw that haggard, old-looking 'her' breathing her last… and beheaded before a cheering crowd.
