Amelia's P.O.V
Everything was silent
All the boys looked at me with shock evident on their faces
Adam looked scared
As if he wanted me to never find out about the murderous things they do
"A-Amelia" he said his voice cracking as he reached out to me
I put my hand up to stop him
"I can't do this" I whispered
The boys looked at me as if they were gonna cry
"You guys are murderers" I whispered
They all looked down as if they couldn't face the fact that they did kill someone
I saw tears in everyone's eyes except deans
He had a cold stare on his face
"You were bound to find out anyway" he said in a cold voice
"NO" I screamed at him
"U HAVE ABSOLUTELY NO FUCKING RIGHT TO ACT LIKE THIS IS OKAY" I screamed at him with tears steaming down my face
"What do u think mum and dad would think about this" I whispered my voice cracking on the last word
All the boys' heads snapped up
"Baby-" Jason started
"No" I said
"I'm leaving I can't I can't do this" I said turning around
"No princess please don't go please" Jason whispered his voice sounded broken
I ignored him and ran out of the house
"Just give me some time please" I said as they all ran outside
"But Amelia-"
"Please" I said tears covering my vision
I ran
I ran to wherever my legs would take me
Soon enough I ended up outside Liam's house
I texted him to open the door and he did it with no question
Once he saw my face he pulled me into a hug and I cried into his shirt
"Sweetheart let's go to my room" he said as he rubbed my back up and down
We went upstairs and sat on his bed
I didn't have any more tears to cry with so I just sat there with a blank face

"Okay lee I'm going to need u to tell me what happen okay" he said crouching down infromt of me and holding my face
"I confronted them" I said with no emotion
"Okay and what did they say?" He said
"Nothing" I said looking up into his eyes
"They didn't defend themselves they didn't even have an excuse" I said
"Did they have any emotion on their face" he said
I nodded
"Adam looked scared and they all were upset except dean he said I was bound to find out asif it's a normal thing for them to just go around killing people" I said my voice was quite rough from all the crying
He grabbed the bottle of water from his desk and passed it to me I thanked him after gulping most of it down
"Did u stay to listen to what they had to say" he said
I shook my head
"Amelia I told u before there must be a reason to why they are doing this" he said
"I don't think there is I think they just kill people for the fun" I said
"What if they are in a gang?" I said my eyes widening
"Amelia ur assuming things I don't think they are in a gang I've know them for a few years they are too good to" Liam said shaking his head
His phone pinged, he checked it and showed it to me
"You've been added to a group chat with my brothers?" I said furrowing my brows
He shrugged before his phone went off again and again and again
"Show me ur phone" I said and he gave it to me
I unlocked his phone then went to messages
Adam: Liam is Amelia at urs
Jason: Liam please quickly answer
Danny: we need to explain everything to her
"I'll answer them" I said
Liam: it's Amelia I'm here and I don't want to talk

Jackson: baby please I promise we can explain everything to u
Dean: we are coming idc
I rolled my eyes and passed Liam the phone back
"They are coming" I said huffing
"They'll probz murder me too so there were no witnesses" I said
"Amelia are we talking about the same people? Cuz the boys I know would die for u" he said
"It's all an act" I said
"Stop assuming things before I am forced to tape ur mouth shut" Liam said shaking his head
"Won't stop my thinking" I said
"Would u like me to put a bullet through ur brain then?" He said putting his hands on his hips
I rolled my eyes then laughed he did too
Soon enough we heard loud knocks on Liam's house door
"I'm glad my parents are out" Liam said rolling his eyes
I laughed and then he went down to open the door
I stood behind him as he opened the door to show all my brothers and cousins
"Amelia" Adam started
"Bye Liam thanks love u" I said giving him a hug
"Don't assume things too quickly u need to hear them out first okay" he whispered
I pulled away and nodded my head
I took a deep breath and pushed past everyone and went into the car that I knew was Elliot's I was Defo not going to sit next to Adam
I sat in the front seat next to Elliot as he was driving. Noah, Brandon and Jason were sat at the back
I moved closer to the edge of the car and slumped in my seat
"I promise we will explain everything" Elliot said
I stayed quiet and leaned my head onto the window
~
I opened the door and sat on the sofa waiting for the rest of them to come in
Jason Jackson and Noah sat on the sofa across me. Chris Dean and Brandon sat on the other sofa that was on my right side. Danny and Elliot sat on the same sofa as me
Adam came last and sat in front of me on the floor
I looked away from his face cuz I couldn't bare seeing him
"Sweetheart please look at me" he said softly putting his hands on my knees
I shook my head no
"Please" he said his voice cracking
I turned my head to look at him
His eyes were filled with tears that were threatening to come out
"How did u find out?" Elliot said from beside me
"I was there with Liam" I said
"Why the fuck were u with Liam?" Dean said
I looked up and glared at him
He shut up and let me continue
"We heard talking and we went to investigate then I saw u and Elliot with the guy" I said quietly
Adam nodded his head
"Why?" I said looking up from my lap to Adam
"Why did u hurt him? Why did u kill him without any hesitation?" I said
A few minutes of silence went by before Adam spoke up
"I don't know if I can tell her" he said turning around to look at the others
"Someone else tell her I can't do this" Adam said wiping his tears that have now fallen but he still sat close to me
"I'll tell her" I heard Jason say
"I think I've already figured it out" I said
"You have?" Adam said looking at me shocked as did the others
"Your in a gang right" I said causing all of them to stiffen
"What? Ur not?" I said confused
Dean began laughing
"Sweetheart" he said
I furrowed my eyebrows and urged him to continue
"We are in the mafia"

The Oresteia (Modernized)
All three of the great Greek Tragedians have written plays about the bloody chain of murder and revenge within the royal family of Argos. Yet theirs is in fact not a story of tragedy, but rather one of redemption. As they move from darkness to light, from rage to self-governance, from primitive ritual to civilized institution, their spirit of struggle and regeneration becomes an everlasting song of celebration to be heard throughout the ages. Forming a discourse set against the emergence of Athenian democracy out of a period of chaos and destruction, the Orestian plays are compelling stories of the tensions between our obligations to our families and the laws that bind us together as a society. In the beginning, we witness how a king’s decision to sacrifice his daughter and turn the tide of war inflicts lasting damage on his family, culminating in a terrible act of retribution. In the aftermath of regicide, we behold how a son must set out to avenge his father’s death by committing a most egregious sin. In the end, the sinner is tormented by supernatural powers that can never be appeased, but ultimately finds redemption and ends the curse on his house once and for all. Woven through all of this is the story of a friendship so close that it elevates itself to brotherhood - Where the blood of the covenant is shown to be indeed thicker than the water of the womb. In this very brief twelve-chapter modern rendition of the Orestian plays, I have chosen to place my focus mainly on the lives of the characters Orestes and his best friend Pylades. The chapters, each around 2000-2500 words, are split up evenly between them in first-person narrative. I hope that you will come to enjoy reading this heartwarming story, but more importantly, that you see how the conflicts portrayed in the story, whether human or institutional, are still much very relevant to our societies today. Note on Sources: The details of this story is very loosely based on The Oresteia by Aeschylus. And I mean very loosely. Other sources that I referenced for detail and inspiration are Mythology by Edith Hamilton, Electra by Sophocles, and Iphigenia in Tauris by Euripides. You may also find that I have quoted some of these works, and others (such as Shelley's Ozymondaeus), without citations (average of 1-2 such quotes per chapter). I did this because I do not have the ability to describe certain scenes nearly as well as some of those writers. If you read a particularly beautiful piece of prose here, chances are it's probably stolen lol. Also, I wrote this during the summer between my high school senior year and my college freshmen year. It was the summer of 2020, and being quarantined apparently gets my creative side out lol.
