story of what is the transcendental hero of Rizal?

Rizal was sitting in his cell, waiting for the dawn to break. He knew
that this would be his last day on earth, but he felt no fear. He had
done his duty as a Filipino, as a human being, as a lover of truth and
freedom. He had written his novels, his essays, his poems, his
letters, that exposed the tyranny and injustice of the Spanish
colonial rule. He had awakened the consciousness and the spirit of his
people, who were now fighting for their independence. He had
sacrificed his life for a noble cause, and he was ready to face his
destiny.

He heard footsteps outside his door. He knew it was time. He stood up


and took his coat. He put on his hat and his glasses. He picked up his
pen and his last poem, Mi Ultimo Adios (My Last Farewell), that he had
written the night before. He hid the poem inside the alcohol stove
that his sister had given him. He hoped that she would find it and
publish it for the world to see. He opened the door and saw the
soldiers waiting for him. They escorted him to the carriage that would
take him to the execution ground.

As he rode through the streets of Manila, he saw the faces of the


people who had gathered to witness his martyrdom. He saw the sadness,
the anger, the admiration, the hope in their eyes. He smiled and waved
at them, as if he was going to a party, not to his death. He wanted to
show them that he was not afraid, that he was proud to die for his
country. He wanted to inspire them to continue the struggle, to never
give up, to never lose faith.

He arrived at the Luneta Park, where a large crowd had assembled. He


saw the firing squad, the priests, the officials, the reporters. He
saw his family and friends, who were crying and praying for him. He
saw his beloved Josephine, who had married him in a secret ceremony
the night before. He felt a pang of sorrow, knowing that he would
never see her again. He wished he could have spent more time with her,
to hold her, to kiss her, to tell her how much he loved her. He gave
her a final glance, and then turned his attention to the soldiers.

He asked them to shoot him in the chest, not in the back. He wanted to
die facing his enemies, not turning his back on them. He wanted to die
with dignity, with honor, with courage. He refused to kneel or to be
blindfolded. He stood erect and calm, facing the rising sun. He
thought of his country, his people, his dreams. He thought of God, who
had given him the gift of life and the mission to serve. He uttered
his last words: "Consummatum est." (It is finished.)
The soldiers raised their rifles and aimed at him. He heard the
command: "Fire!" He felt a sharp pain in his chest, and then nothing.
He fell to the ground, lifeless. A loud cry of grief and rage erupted
from the crowd. They had witnessed the death of their hero, their
leader, their friend. They had also witnessed the birth of a legend, a
symbol, a martyr. They knew that his blood would water the seeds of
the revolution, that his spirit would live on in their hearts and
minds, that his name would echo through the ages. They knew that he
was not just a man, but a transcendental hero.
