Every night we lay our heads down to dream and that is when our minds start to tick. We remember these horrible things that happen to us during our lives. In our dreams, we are superheroes and we can fix everything. We dream of revenge. We dream of payback. Just like that, we wake up and reality sets in. Then we remember that we are not superheroes and we cannot fix everything. We bottle that rage and go on and live our lives.
He plans on fixing that. He used to have a mean old teacher. She looked down upon him and she went to great measures to tell him that he was a piece of trash and would not amount to anything. Everything that he believed in was a lie. Bray says that he went up to Miss Teacher Lady and he asked her what made her better than him. Is it because your mommy and daddy paid for you to go to school and wave your diploma in front of the students.
She told Bray that he was rotten and he stands for nothing. The first time that she looked inside his eyes, she knew that he was evil.
Bray laughs. He says that she is now rotting away in a retirement home while he is a conquerer and the leader of a thousand troops. He has the whole world in his hands.
Bray says that is his payback. His ends justify his means. She was right about one thing. He is evil. He is the necessary evil that must exist in this world to balance everything out. He is evil. His tongue is the scorpion’s tail. People get behind him because he gives hope.
