《When Machines Break》CHAPTER 1 - FAKING

LEO'S POV:
The whole of the 7 except me were in the dining room on the Argo 2, waiting for me to cook dinner because it is my turn.
As I put my fabulous tacos on a platter I hear some muffled voices coming from inside. I shrug it off but when I hear my name I freeze at the door.
"Its not like Leo ever does anything! I mean, yeah sure he built this ship, but he's a child of Hephaestus, it's a piece of cake for them!" I hear Frank say.
"Yes, I agree. No one likes him either he is so annoying! Me and Pipes aren't even friends with him! He's the odd one out, no wonder he has no girlfriend! Nobody can stand him for even more than five minutes!" Jason exclaimed.
I started trembling and tears started to pool into my eyes. Of course they weren't really my friends. I'm all alone, no one cares. An what hurt more, was that nobody stuck up for me. I'm Leo Valdez, The Repair Boy, The Seventh Wheel, The annoying scrawny one of the great, powerful 7.
I silently walked back to the kitchen and took a few minutes to calm down slightly before going back to the dining room. I walked in and no one would meet my eye. I set the platter down on the table and gave them a fake grin. "Well, I'm going to bed, not hungry bye!" I said in a rushed way and left not giving them a chance to reply. Once I was out of their view I let the tears flow, choking on air I run to my room. I slam and lock the door, breathing heavily.

The Ultimate Supporter
Mona stood there, her body has stopped shaking as she stared at Sarah with no expression. “... do I have to set a goal?” Mona asked quietly. “Yes, if you do not then you will not be allowed to play Road Builder.” “...why? Why do we have to set a goal?” “This game is about inspiring people to work hard towards something that they wish to achieve. Don’t you have something you wish to achieve too ma’am?” “... I… do.” “What is your goal then ma’am?” “My goal… my goal is to become the ultimate supporter.” Feelings rushed back into Mona’s eyes as she clenched both her fists hard. “I want to help others succeed. I don’t need to be the main character. I want other people to be the main character.” Mona yelled as tears began to stream down her face. “I just… I just want to feel needed again.” Mona sniffled. Sarah looked at her with a soft expression on her face. “Is ‘I want to become the ultimate supporter’ your final choice?” Sarah asked. Mona bit on her lip as tears continued to stream down her face. She slowly nodded her head. “Alright then… this goal has been registered onto your avatar. You will soon spawn into a town and began your journey.” Sarah smiled, her eyes illuminating warmth to Mona. Mona nodded her head understanding as she wiped away the tears. A blue circle appeared around her as numbers counting down from ten appeared in front of her. 10… 9… 8… “By the way ma’am.” Sarah said. 7… 6… “Yes?” 5… 4… “I am sure you will achieve that goal, and to guarantee that, I give you my blessings.” 3… “What?” 2… “Enjoy your time in Road Builder.” 1… ********* Please point out if you notice any mistakes so that I can fix it. Also, because I re-edit this a lot so the chapters are going to come out very slowly(and because the blue tables take a while to do). Any comments and reviews are welcomed and are appreciated! Thanks for reading!
