🔥 Take No Prisoners 🔥
The night hums with static ⚡.
Every few minutes, a flicker of blue light pulses through the abandoned hospital corridor 💻💫—like a ghost trying to remember what it once was.
Jas brushes the dust off a console. The old monitor stutters to life, its glass warped and slightly melted, like everything else since the Solar Wave of ’45 🌌⚡—that strange magnetic storm that bent time, space, and memory alike.
“What’s that?” Ivy Mae whispers 😳
Jas scrolls, eyes narrowing. The screen flashes “HEALTH JUSTICE REPORT – 2025” 📰🔥
The file opens slowly, fragment by fragment, as if reluctant to reveal its truth.
⚠️ Unsafe Treatment Practices – Restraints and Seclusion
- Between 2020–21 and 2021–22, approximately 14,788 involuntary admissions included the use of seclusion or restraint ❌🧒💔
- 1 in 4 of all involuntary admissions involved these practices ⚡
- Children. Youth. Locked away “for their safety.” 🚪🔒
The screen flickers again. Another document appears—titled “Shelter Access Report – Women’s Services, 2025” 🏠💔
- 3,500+ women turned away from shelters in a single year 🚫👩👧
- Not because they didn’t need help… but because there was no room left to help them 😢
Roman exhales slowly. “And they called that care?”
Jas shakes their head, scrolling further. “It gets worse.”
- Parents barred from involvement once their child turned twelve 🧒❌
- Even when kids faced addiction, psychosis, or suicidal ideation ⚠️💔
- Professionals called it autonomy. Families called it abandonment 🖤
Another folder blinks into view. “OPCC Case Reopened – 2025” 🚨💼
The Office of the Police Complaint Commissioner announced a public hearing into allegations against a Vancouver Police Department sergeant accused of sexual misconduct involving multiple women, including former students and officers. 😡⚖️
Outside, the city whispers its own secrets 🌆💨:
- No affordable housing 🏚️, but thousands of empty condos & towers 🏢🏢🏢
- People being renovicted, losing their homes while 1,550 fraudulent student applications from India are uncovered 📜✈️, with 14,000 more under investigation 😱
- Fentanyl deaths in BC alone: 18,000 💀💉
- Food banks at all-time high, while Chip Wilson lives in an $82 MILLION mansion 💸🏰
Ivy Mae’s voice breaks softly. “This… this is why everything burned.” 🔥
Jas nods, eyes hollow. “Someone tried to warn them. There was a book. Written in 2025 📖💥”
Roman looks up. “The one they banned?”
Jas nods. “Yeah. It was called Take No Prisoners ⚡🔥. Written by someone who sacrificed everything—exposed the hospitals, the cops, the politicians, even the nonprofits. It told the truth. It burned too hot. 🔥💻💔”
Outside, lightning ripples through the sky ⚡🌌—green, electric, magnetic. The city lights up for one full, blinding second 🌟💥. Every old monitor flickers on, displaying a single phrase before dying again:
THE TRUTH HURTS. BUT IT STILL BURNS. 🔥💻🖤
