Luna Drusan was of Syrian descent and had grown up in
Long Island, New York with immigrant parents.
She went to New York University where she met friends of various
backgrounds. One of her friends was a
Dominican Republican who also grew up in New York who introduced her to a white
conservative of Greek descent named Theo.
At first, Luna didn’t like Theo but as she spent more and more time with
him over the years, she realized that despite being conservative, he was not a
bigot. This culminated when they went on
vacation together. At the end of the
vacation, the next time Luna saw Theo she told him that she didn’t like him at
first for being a Republican but now she realized he’s actually a nice guy. Theo took it well as he always liked her
despite being a liberal. If you live in
New York City and can’t get along with liberals, you probably won’t last
long. Later, Luna told Theo that she
didn’t understand how he and his Dominican friend always were honest and told
the truth because she lied a lot. Theo
never knew how to take this comment. Can
you believe an admitted liar? But, you
only think that she is a liar because she told you but she could be lying about
being a liar. There is no logical way to
reconcile this paradox so Theo decided he would just take everything she said
with a grain of salt because she’s a liar.
Theo and Luna’s friendship would end up being a good
thing because now they both lived in Washington D.C. so they weren’t alone in
their new location. Luna was an attorney
and Theo worked for the Trump White House.
Although Luna was a devout Muslim, she didn’t wear a headscarf. She wore shorts and makeup. She was more clothed than most women but from
a Muslim perspective, she was straying.
She didn’t drink alcohol and looked down on Theo for doing so but Theo
never concerned herself with other’s opinions.
Luna was married to a Muslim man who was very traditional. He didn’t approve of her promoting her beauty
in public but Luna was strong willed and he acquiesced and accepted her when
they got married.
Theo had a long day at work so invited Luna to
dinner. Luna asked if her husband
Chuckie could come. Theo said yes. He had met Chuckie before and got along with
him. Also, it was a little odd to be
going to dinner with a married woman.
The more transparent he was with the husband, the better it would
be. Luna agreed and the set a time to
meet. When they met up, Luna said,
“Chuckie can’t make it.”
“Is Chuckie his real name?”
“No, but Americans always mispronounce it so he goes by
that to make it more palpable for White people.”
Theo was light skinned even for a Greek but let the
comment go with a smile. He said, “So, I
just learned that that the Quaran isn’t the only holy book of Islam. You also have the Hadith and the Bukhari.”
“There’s more than three but yes those are two other
ones.”
“But those two separate the sects more so than any other
two. Which one are you?”
“I go by the Hadith but Chuckie follows the Bukhari. A majority of Muslims follow the Bukhari.”
Theo had learned that both books depict the prophet
Muhammad as a violent person who kills infidels. The main difference is that the Hadith says
Muhammad was a warrior and the killing he did was in the context of battle. It’s the Bukhari that paints him as a Jihadist
that doesn’t have a limit to his killing.
He decided he wasn’t going to bring this up. This was especially true when Luna said,
“Let’s not talk about this. Let’s talk
about fun stuff like how your boss gave the Attorney General the power of the
president to declassify.”
Theo smiled and said, “Sure why not?” Knowing that he was about to get in an
argument with a lawyer, who was liberal and a massive spin artist.
“Well the DNI has said that the IC must be protected.”
“Neither the intelligence community (IC) or the Director
of National Intelligence (DNI) is the president of the United States. They are appointed and hired by the
President. They work for the president. If they are subordinate and disobey a direct
order from their president, they should be fired yesterday.”
“But the New York Times said….”
“The Treason Times is exactly that. They commit treason on a daily basis so of
course they would promote being subordinate to the President of the United
States just like they praised Sally Yates for doing it.”
“Well, if you let me finish, I would tell you that there
is a source in the Kremlin really close to Putin that would be burned if they
declassify the documents.”
Theo put on a sarcastic tone. “Wow, this guy is so secret that they just
publicly admitted that he exists in a mainstream American newspaper that is
read all over the world including Russia.
I mean this CIA source is so secret that Brennan leaked his identity to
the New York Times who printed it?”
“They didn’t say the guy’s
name.”
“But now Putin would know that
someone is watching. They call him a
former official close to Putin. It’s
probably Brennan or one of Brennan’s lieutenants who is no longer in Russia.”
“Isn’t it good if Putin is
looking over his shoulder?”
“Only if there isn’t actually an
informant. Then yea, by all means but
that also means we can declassify and maybe, just maybe Putin will believe that
we were careful enough not to leak the identity of that man and Putin is still
looking over his shoulder.”
“No, I mean if we declassify,
he’ll be revealed.”
“There is no way you can know
that. If the CIA really has a source in
the Kremlin why was there no official intelligence that had the Trump collusion
information. Why did it have to come
from the State department?”
“It came to Brennan of the CIA
and Comey of the FBI what do you mean?”
“They were told by Christopher
Steele. They were supposed to go through
the Woods procedure and send it to intelligence agencies in four other
countries to verify it. Things aren’t normally
handled at the upper echelons of the CIA and FBI. The rank and file people pass it up.”
“I hate when non-lawyers try to
tell me about legal procedure.”
“I hate when people pretend to
be knowledgeable and hide behind their education when they don’t have anything
substantive to say.”
“It would take too long to
explain to you what took me three years to learn in law school.”
“Oh okay…” Theo said unconvincingly and
sarcastically. Theo continued, “Why
would we protect this source anyway? All
the information turned out to be false.
Why would we still trust him when he lied to us so many times? The entire FISA is false.”
“You watch too much right wing
media.”
“That’s because they tell the
truth.”
“Whatever” Luna said as she
rolled her eyes.
“Riddle me this. Why can we trust the NY Times with the identity
of the source but not the Attorney General?”
Luna sighed, “You’re just so
ignorant in this. I can’t help you.”
Theo smiled, “Wow, you just keep
going to that. It’s not going to work.”
“Look, no matter what. We can all agree that there’s no question
that the investigation started July 31, 2016 with crossfire Hurricane. Even your hero Nunes said it.”
“You got that from Marshall
Cohen from CNN”
“Oh, you’re going to tell me
that CNN is leftist too”
“Yes”
Luna shook her head, “Whatever,
can we agree with that?”
“No”
“Why not?”
“The GCHQ was briefing the FBI
about Trump and Russia in the fall of 2015.”
“Oh, so now you’re blaming the
British.”
“Yes, that’s why they also don’t
want us to declassify. Christopher
Steele was British right? Papadopoulos
had these meeting with Mifsud and Downer in London right? Stephan Halper was a professor at Cambridge,
which is in the UK right? Everything
happens in the United Kingdom before the investigation is opened.”
“Why would the CIA and FBI do it
in the UK?”
“To circumvent US laws and the 4th
amendment. They wanted to spy on
American citizens but since the investigation wasn’t open, they had to do it
where it was legal, like the UK, so they could feed the BS to the FBI so the
FBI would open the investigation.”
“Wow, this is getting very
conspiratorial.”
“There’s only two
scenarios. Either the British gave
Obama’s DOJ and CIA the information about Russia and Trump and they believed it
but did nothing or it was a coordinated effort like I said.”
“Or the British never gave us
any information.”
“It’s well documented they did.”
While Luna was at dinner,
Chuckie was meeting with a Muslim man.
The man said, “Chuckie, Luna is violating Sharia law.”
“I know but this is
America. It corrupts people.”
“People who are corrupted by the
great Satan need to be punished.”
Chuckie became intrigued,
“Punished how?”
“The ultimate punishment.”
“No, that’s for Muslims that
convert from Muslim to another religion.
Luna is still Muslim.”
“She wears make-up. She doesn’t wear a headscarf. She goes out in public without her father or
you making a public announcement that she has your permission. She dances in public She associates with non-believers. You said yourself she is at dinner now with a
Christian.”
“I did give her permission to do
that.”
“That is irrelevant. She must be punished and forced back to our
traditions”
Chuckie looked around
hesitantly. There was some more back and
forth but then Chuckie said, “Alright, I agree to let you punish her but her
life must be preserved.”
“Yes, like you said, she did not
convert to Christianity so she is not deserving of a killing.”
“Alright”
When Theo went to work the next
day, he told a secret service agent.
“Hey can you follow my friend discreetly. I feel like her life is in danger.”
“Why do you say that?”
“Her husband is a sect of the
Muslim faith that believes in Sharia law.
My friend doesn’t wear a head scarf and wears make up, which they frown
upon.”
“How long have they been
married?”
“A few years now.”
The agent grimaced, “If he was
so against it, he would have put a stop to it or would have already taken care
of it. Have you seen any evidence that
he’s abusing her?”
Theo put his head down and
admitted, “No, I haven’t”
“I can’t divert resources. I’ll tell you what though; I’ll give you a
number to a retired friend of mine. He’s
former military that needs some extra cash.
If you agree to his price, he’ll help you out and you can waste your
money on paranoia. My advice would be
for you not to call him but if you’re right, then I’ll feel guilty so this is
my way to cover my ass.”
Theo shrugged his shoulders and
commented, “That works for me.”
Theo called the number and the
former military man gave two prices. The
cheaper option was to observe and report.
The second, more expensive option was to get involved and kill. Theo only paid for a week of surveillance and
went with the cheaper option. He figured
that he was just being paranoid but for some reason he had a bad feeling about
Chuckie not coming to the dinner.
A couple days after the meeting,
Luna arrived in Pentagon circle, which is a small community near the Pentagon
in Virginia. Chuckie told her about a
get together they were having at a client’s house and she had to come. Luna agreed and arrived with food. She rang the doorbell and a bearded man
answered. He said, “You must be Luna, it
is nice to meet you.”
“Likewise” Luna said as she
stuck out her hand, which the breaded man shook.
Luna saw that he was in
traditional Muslim garb much like a Saudi prince or an Imam and she became
nervous. She had a dress on that went
below her knees but she felt awkward. The
bearded man said, “Please come in.”
Luna did and looked around and
said, “Am I the first one here?”
The bearded man wrapped his arms
around her neck and Luna dropped the plate of food she brought. She was dragged into a room with a small bed
and thrown down on her stomach. She
screamed but her head was summarily pressed into the mattress muffling her
screams. The bearded man straddled her
butt and pinned her down and said, “You have violated Sharia law. You must be punished so you will learn to
cover yourself more properly and stop hanging out with infidel men over your
husband.”
Luna turned her head to the side
and said, “I didn’t choose any man over my husband. I’ve been faithful.”
“I am not accusing you of
infidelity. You had dinner with a
non-believer is that right?”
“Yes, we went to college
together.”
“You were not with your
husband.”
“I invited him.”
“That’s not good enough. He asked me to teach you this lesson because
he was too heartbroken to do it himself.
You take him for granted.”
“That’s bullshit”
A hand came across her face and
he said, “How dare you speak to me like that.”
The bearded man unzipped Luna’s dress and forced it off
her. He threw her on the ground and
pinned her down by putting his left leg onto her stomach. He removed his garb as Luna struggled from
underneath him. She only had underwear
on as she removed her shoes when she walked in.
Tears started streaming down her cheeks as the bearded man lowered
himself and inserted himself into her.
He thrusted his pelvis against her as she groaned, which just made the bearded
man taunt her. The fight was completely
out of Luna and she became submissive to any desire the bearded man asked. He commanded her to get up and bend over
against the bed. He then took her from
behind as she cried out in pain. He
ravaged her repeatedly until he finished.
He then grabbed a sword and found Luna on all fours crawling away. He grabbed her by the neck and put the knife
to her throat and said, “You are beyond saving.
For the betterment of your husband who needs to find a worthy woman, I
must eliminate you from his life.”
When Luna pulled up, the
investigator called Theo who was at a bar in Dupont Circle. He said, “Hey, you’re girl is going to a
house of a strange character. You may
want to get to Virginia.”
“Are you sure?”
“Yea, my instincts are red
flagging like crazy.”
“Theo knew that the train would
be quicker as traffic was intense at this time.
He took the train to Virginia and ran to the house. The military man met him and handed him a
gun. He said, “When you enter the door,
there will be a room on your left. Hurry
up, he’s raping her.”
Theo looked up and said, “And
you haven’t done anything.”
“You only paid to observe and
report.”
Theo shook his head and decided
debating was a waste of time. He ran at
the door but the military man was quicker as he kicked the door in and then
jumped to the side letting Theo in. Theo
entered and turned left to find the man standing over Luna with his arm around
her neck. He didn’t notice the sword but
he raised the gun with both hands, aimed and squeezed the trigger hitting the
bearded man in the back of the knee to maximize pain. It is only when he heard the sword clang
against the ground did he realize what he walked in on. The bearded man fell forward and tripped over
Luna as he collapsed on the ground grabbing his leg screaming in pain. Luna grabbed the sword and turned toward Theo
was a fury in her eyes that he had never seen before. She said, “Turn that asshole on his
stomach. Theo did so and Luna walked up
to him and raised the sword. She said,
“You are going to have the dishonor of being killed by a woman” as she swung
the sword connecting with his neck.
She kept swinging and sawing until the head came off in a
fountain of blood that covered her and Theo.
She dropped the sword and ran up to Theo and jumped into his arms
wrapping her arms and legs around him. Theo
held her not knowing what to do. Luna
was completely naked and bleeding from her groin and anus. After a full minute, Theo said, “Umm, Luna,
you may want to put some clothes on and we probably should call 911.”
This seemed to snap Luna out of her trance. She dropped to her feet with a new surge of
adrenaline. She looked at Theo and said,
“You’re clothes are covered in blood.
Take them off, I got to wash them.”
Theo was staring at a naked brown body covered in crimson
blood. He said, “That’s not important
right now. I’m wearing a cheap T-shirt
and shorts, I can throw them away.”
“Don’t be stupid. I know you’re Christian. You’ve stripped to your boxers around women
all the time when you share rooms and even beds with them. You go to the beach wearing nothing but
shorts so what’s the difference?”
Theo didn’t really have an
argument to this except that the girls he was with insisted on it because they
viewed sleeping in the clothes you had on all day was dirty. He decided she was just in shock, so he
obliged. Luna gathered up her clothes
and Theo’s and found a bathroom. There
was a bathtub and she clogged the drain and put on cold water as she soaked the
clothing. Theo didn’t dare follow but
when she came back she was wearing a towel.
Theo couldn’t help but notice that there was still blood on her. He said, “Are you sure you don’t want to take
a shower with the clothes?”
“No, I gotta go to the hospital. My body is evidence of what that fucker did
to me. I need to justify why I killed
him.”
Theo’s eyes looked up and then
he shook his body as he realized she was right.
He couldn’t believe how calm she was.
She said, “Take out your phone. I
need you to take a picture of me now that I’m covered up.”
Theo was unsure if a towel
counted as ‘covered up’ but took out his phone.
Luna put her left foot on the now headless body and turned to Theo and
smiled. Theo took the picture. Luna said, “Please turn him onto his back”
Theo did holding back from
gagging. Again, Luna put her foot on his
chest and smiled wide as Theo took the picture.
She said, “Now call 911”
Theo called 911 and reported
what had happened. The only thing that
kept him there is that Luna was a lawyer so would know people to represent
them. The house became a crime scene
pretty quick and Luna was loaded onto a stretcher. Since Theo wasn’t her husband, he had to
travel to the hotel separately. They
gave both of them a thermal jacket to wear that was more like a cape. Theo called an Uber and was happy they let
him in the car wearing nothing but a jacket that seemed to be made out of the
same substance of a trash bag and boxers.
The Uber driver wasn’t too curious and figured since he was going to the
hospital; they would take care of whatever problem he had. While they were waiting for the cops, Theo
did jump in the shower and washed the blood off him and dried off with a towel
before putting his boxers back on.
Theo waited in the waiting room
for hours until they let him go in to see her.
The look of fury was out of Luna’s eyes and she looked at Theo the way
she always did. The hospital had given Theo
some pajama pants and a shirt to wear.
He knew this was from people who had died but nobody claimed the
clothes. Right now though, he didn’t
care. He said, “Now that you actually
look sane, I’m really sorry I didn’t get there sooner.”
“Don’t worry about it; it’s not
your job to protect me.”
Theo’s eyes wandered back and
forth. He knew the implication she was
making but he didn’t know how to respond.
While Theo was waiting, the police asked him questions and he answered
them to the best of his ability. He said
he was invited to the house and got there after Luna hoping she’d tell the same
lie. They didn’t seem too interested as
it seemed like an obvious self-defense case.
They would still analyze the crime scene but the doctors were confirming
that Luna had significant tearing. Luna
said, “So Liz Cheney is throwing around the term ‘coup’ now.”
Theo took the bait. The best thing to do was to act like nothing
happened. He said, “That’s because when
you conspire to spy on the President of the United States under false pretenses
and you falsify information to a court in order to trick them to get a warrant
to spy on the President in the most invasive way possible to undermine his
presidency and get him impeached. We
call that treason. In this case a
treacherous coup, so yea I agree.”
“Once again, you know nothing
about the law.” Luna said with a smile
“Once again, you can’t logically find a problem with my argument, counselor” emphasizing the last word in a mocking way.
“Jim Comey may be an adulterer
but he was a good agent.”
“According to the special
counsels own lawyer; Comey was a witness in a pending investigation. Him
leaking conversations with the President to the media is illicit. Then, when the President fires him for
illegally leaking their conversations to the media, a firing recommended by
Rosenstein by the way, he sets up an illegal investigation on the President
through Andy MeCabe. So yea as a witness
in a pending investigation, you can’t talk to the media. You also can’t record the president and leak
your conversations to the media. So how
is he a good agent again?”
“Don’t tell me about the law.”
“You need a new comeback”
“Look a special counsel was set
up to see if he obstructed justice by firing Comey. The AG said ‘no’ so that’s that.”
“Again a lawyer from the special
counsel says that the investigation into obstruction of justice was on May
12. Comey was fired May 9. The special counsel wasn’t set up until May
17. So, no the investigation into
obstruction pre-dated the Mueller probe.”
“Who opened it?”
“MeCabe”
“Right, I remember now. The FBI interviewed Lester Holt on May
11. That’s how the obstruction
investigation started. That’s why it was
opened May 12, the day after the interview.”
“Unless these declassified
documents show that it was opened May 10”
“Why would you think that?”
“MeCabe was pissed that
President Trump fired his buddy Comey so he opened it then but he wanted to
lie. The FBI has lied about everything
else so why not this date?”
“I can’t believe the White House
trusts you with sensitive information.”
“They don’t. This is stuff I hear in the real media like
the Examiner and the Hill.”
A phone rang by Luna and she
smiled. She picked it up and said, “Hi
Chuckie” in a cheery voice that sounded much more hurt a moment ago.
Chuckie was taken aback from who
answered the phone. He had called the
man he hired to punish Luna and now Luna was answering the phone and didn’t
seem upset. She said, “So the guy whose
house you sent me to attacked me and tried to kill me. I’m at the hospital right now.”
Chuckie was relieved that she
didn’t seem to know he hired him. He
acted shocked and said, “What?! Are you okay?
Where is he now? I’ll kill him!”
Luna put on a hurt voice and her
voice turned to a whine and said, “No, just please come here. I need you.
I’m all alone and I’m scared here.”
Theo’s eyes squinted in
confusion as Chuckie said “I’m on my way but why didn’t you call me?”
“I just got out of
treatment. I wasn’t allowed to call you
until all my tests were done. You had
perfect timing, I just got finished.”
Luna hung up the phone and Theo
said, “Alright, I’ll leave you alone now that Chuckie is coming.”
Luna gave him a dirty look, “No
you’re staying. In case you missed
something, Chuckie is the one that hired that asshole to rape and murder
me. I lured him here to be arrested.”
Theo looked up at the TV. He forgot he was dealing with a well seasoned
liar. He saw a news story and read from
the screen, “Wow, Rite Aide donated 6 million dollars to folds of honor. That’s really cool of them.”
Luna said, “Yea, it is. I mean I feel bad for the children of fallen
military members. They deserve
help. I support that too.”
“Glad we can agree on
something.”
“Yea, now that I agreed with a
conservative position. Let’s see if we
can find some common ground. When Trump
texted that Kim Jung Un is smarter that Sleepy Joe Biden and would make a
better President. We can agree that that
was wrong right?”
“He never said that. Ian Brennan of Time magazine made it up.”
“What? You and your conspiracies”
Theo pulled out his phone and
went to Ian Brennan’s twitter feed and showed Luna where he admitted that he
made it up. Theo then said, “Can we
agree that fabricating quotes is wrong?”
“No, I agree with the mainstream
media. That’s something Trump would say
so it’s fair game.”
“Wow, now who’s
unreasonable? The President must be
really good if you have to make shit up about him to make him look bad.”
“You want real? How about how he doctored Pelosi’s speech?”
“Edited not doctored. He spliced it but it was played at the same
speed.”
“No, I saw the slowed down
version.”
“No, you saw the media slowing
down other speeches. They also played
the clips at regular speed. Notice how
they didn’t show anyone the Pelosi clip at…” Theo made quotation signs with his
fingers and continued, “normal speed.”
“It’s still despicable to not
play the entire clip.”
“People edit clips all the time
for time and content. It’s not a big
deal.”
“It is a big deal.”
“So let me get this straight,
editing a video is wrong but completely fabricating a quote is okay?”
Luna said, “Whatever, your boss
is a racist.”
Theo pulled up another screen
shot from his phone and showed it to Luna.
It was a tweet from the Washington Post on 5/24/19 between 7:00PM and
8:00PM saying ‘racial prejudice has declined as a reaction to Trump’s
presidency a new study suggests.’ Then Theo stated, “It went up under Obama.”
Luna smirked and said, “I
thought you didn’t believe anything the mainstream media said.”
Theo grinned and shook his head
and uttered, “The way you spin is amazing.”
“Thanks” Luna said beaming. By then Chuckie came in feigning
concern. Luna turned her head and said,
“Officers, that’s him.”
Chuckie was arrested and Luna
turned back to Theo. She said in a
serious voice, “Thank you for saving my life.”
Theo grimaced and said, “I just
wish I had gotten there sooner.”
“If you got there any later, I
would have been dead so we’ll just say you had good timing not perfect timing.”
“Yea”
“You never did tell me how you
knew though?”
“Get some sleep Luna, I need to
go home” Theo said as he walked out.
Luna looked after him and cried
out, “Theo?”
Theo stopped and turned around
as his body tensed up. He didn’t have an
answer for her. Luna said, “I’m not
going to make you lie. Come back tomorrow.
I need a friend right now. I
promise I won’t ask anything you don’t want to answer.”
Theo gave her a quizzical look
as he wondered what she meant by that comment.
He agreed to come back the next day.
Luna kept her promise and didn’t ask how he got there. She had told the same lie to the cops so they
took it as true. When Luna got out she
stated to Theo, “Will you stay with me?
I don’t want to be alone.”
Theo sighed, “I don’t think
that’s a good idea.”
“Why not?”
“I don’t trust you Luna. You lie very well. Even when I was in the room and knew that you
knew what Chuckie did, I thought you were telling the truth.”
“I didn’t convince you on the
political shit.”
“Well that’s different, I know
you’re….”
Luna giggled and opined, “Right,
you were about to contradict yourself.”
Theo did end up going back with
Luna. They stayed in separate
rooms. After they had processed the
crime scene, the cops gave Luna and Theo back their clothes. Luna took Theo’s clothes and washed
them. Theo was shocked she was able to
get the blood out but Luna didn’t think it was a big deal. Eventually, Luna was okay staying at her
house by herself and Theo went back to his house. They remained friends and went on with their
lives.
