《New generation》Accusing the wrong
Advertisement
The next day Eve woke up in River's cabin, her vision blurry but as soon as she blinked it away Jack was above her, waving his hand back and fourth in front of her face.
Eve gave a tried groan as Jack spoke up, "Jennifer's calling an urgent meeting, hurry she sounds serious." With that Eve heard the cabin door shut, Eve barely processed the words said but when she did she was quick to get up from the couch and run out the door.
She was glad she didn't smell of green 'grass' but that didn't stop her from thinking they'd got caught somehow, Damn she should've listened to Marcus. She wasn't worried about Jennifer sounding serious because quite frankly she always sounded serious.
When she entered the big house she was kinda taken aback not seeing anyone else except Jennifer, who was sitting at her desk with her pen in hand. Eve cleared her throat and closed the door behind her, "You called for a meeting?"
Jennifer drop her pen and got up, "Not me but Zeus," Eve's full attention was now on her as Jennifer put on her white scarf, "He's having a meeting with the rest of them now but you should stay here... he wants to talk to you separately." With that Jennifer walked pasted her and out the door, leaving an unsettled Eve behind.
Not long after Zeus came though the door as Eve sat waiting, she straighten up as soon as he came in, "Eve.. it's been some time." Zeus's voice came out like he wanted to be anywhere but there, Eve didn't blame him she herself as usual regretted taking that brownie the night before.
"Yeah it has..." Eve didn't know what else to say, she always tried to pick her words carefully when she was around Zeus or anyone intimidating for that matter. Zeus didn't bother taking a seat nor did it look like he was staying for too long, "Where's my bolt?" He demanded with a tried sigh.

"What?"
Eve wasn't in the mood to guess what he was talking about so she patiently waited for Zeus to explain, "My Lightning bolt, I know you take it, now where is it?" Eve scoffed and shook her head, "I didn't take your stupid Lightning bolt." Her voice came out bitter do to Zeus accusing her of such actions, the sound of Lightning can be heard outside almost like a warning.
Eve wasn't surprised about Zeus accusing her in fact she was quite used to people pointing fingers at her if something went wrong, of course they'd be blaming the satan's child, it's happened before.
"I have my reasons of believe..." Zeus looked her over almost with a sneer and Eve couldn't help but give him the same look, "...if you don't have it then you are to find it." Eve bit her Inter lip from saying anything because if she did protest, well let's just say she didn't want to test her luck.
"I believe it could also be Percy Jackson who has it, he's located in camp half-blood and if you don't return it by summer solstice well let's just say you won't live long enough to see the prophecy happen." Zeus threatened as all Eve could do was stare at the ground and bounce her leg up and down, she could taste blood as she bit her Inter lip to hard but it was healed just as fast as it came.
"Understood?"
Eve's voice came out quiet, "Yeah... understood." With that a loud crack sounded, informing her of Zeus's absences. Eve sighed with distress, "Fuck." She mumbled out as she clenched her fist and kept bouncing her leg up and down, her movements stopped completely when the door opened once more.

Jennifer barely gave her a glance before she went and sat at her desk, "You are to pick 3 others to go with you on your quest." Jennifer wasn't looking at her as she continued going through her drawer but as Eve lingered Jennifer looked up sharply, "You could go now." Eve was quick to leave after that.
She went to where she knew everyone would be at this time, the training field. Once she was there she didn't have to gather everyone do to them already coming towards her, Milo was the first to speak up though, "So, who are you choosing?" Eve immediately figure Jennifer had informed them on what was happening.
Eve sighed and looked between all of them, she already knew who she was picking as she thought of it on her way over, "Well we're gonna be looking for the Lightning bolt so... I was hoping you'd come," she looked at Jack directly, she knew if someone could sense the bolt it'd be Jack, do to him controlling electricity she'd hope he was was the closest shot to finding it.
Jack gave a brief nod as he breathe heavily do to him just running laps, Eve didn't miss the concern look Allison made at jack but she'd figure the two would talk about it after privately. Eve then looked over at Lucas, "I was also thinking you'd come, you know if you get a vision on the way it could help." Sam didn't look worried for Lucas as she nodded along Eve's words and waited for Lucas's response, "Yeah, sure."
Eve gave the couple a tightlipped smile as she looked over at rose, they'd both knew rose was coming from the start, they were half sisters what did you expect?. They both shared a look of understanding, "Rose.."
"Coming, got it." Rose pushed it aside easily, as she put her elbow on top of river's shoulder and nodded at her. Eve nodded back and rubbed her hands together, "Okay, I suggest you guys go freshen up and go pack up, we only till the summer socialist to find this thing so we leave tonight." Everyone listened to the order as they all left and did their thing, as Eve was leaving she didn't need to turn to see who was following her.
"I could be useful you know?" Marcus caught up to her as they both headed to her cabin, "Why didn't you pick me?" Honesty there were a lot of reasons why she didn't pick Marcus but she didn't have the time to list them all.
"I'd be better this way." It wasn't an excuse nor a reason but she'd hope Marcus would leave the subject alone and thankfully the curly headed tan boy did leave it alone but it didn't mean it'd stop him from bragging, "Yeah, no actually your totally right, we wouldn't want anything happening to this beautiful face." He dramatically 'flipped' his hair and sighed dreamily, obviously full of himself.
Eve shook her head and looked up at the sky, she prayed the boy would get over himself. Marcus only bumped his shoulder with her's as he laughed.
That night Eve, Rose, Jack and Lucas were on their way to New York, camp half-blood to be exact to find Zeus's Lightning bolt.

Young bloods (WIP)
" So-called leaders prostituted their people to wars and abuse. They destroyed families, culture and economies; their hands dyed red by the blood of the children, the families trampled by their lecherous motivations and diabolical war machines. Trained and taught by the Revenants or rather “young bloods” from their war-torn world, we were going to build a better world for us and for the later generations, a world when there shall be no more wars waged over territory, a world where boys and girls can frolic around for all of eternity." -Sasha, Terutan regular army cadet. ‘History is determined by the victors, and here we stand transcended over those who abused us. History is filled with liars, broken promises of eternal prosperity and peace. The more things change, the more things stayed the same: ideology change, location shift but power will always find a place to rest its head. We fought and bled for the adults, the grown men and women who preached of us being their future, preached us of the freedom from tyranny and slavery; no wonder why we hated them so. History is determined by the victor, and there shall be no victors when we’re done.’- Yulia Bronskavya, Red Army Homeguard. As the first modern war came to a close in November 1st, 1918, rows of passed juveniles laid the battlefields. In the name of some royal fat cats or some shitty national leader, cruelty and crimes were committed against the weak and the vulnerable younglings; in other words, adults were assholes. Their deaths marked a new beginning, a new beginning in a strange and magical land that was and had only been dreamt of in stories and folk tale, they had arrived to Terruta. The first ones regarded themselves as Revenants, heroes who had been able to be reborn in this world and began their adventure to explore this strange foreign land. However, “every coin have two sides, like everyone have two faces”. 'As they left their former life behind, the young soldiers and operators found themselves being deceived, abused and taken advantaged off again by the elders of this world. Many were abused, tortured, raped and sold to slavery, Revenants were quite sought after due to their timeless charm, strength, intellect and immortality, they were unable to be killed no matter what; many were bought and used as pets, slaves and entertainers for their masters’ entertainment. Fed up with the similar treatment and abuse by the adults of this world, many revolted and founded ICC, International Cooperative Coalition.'-Sasaki Kotegawa, JSDF Private.

The Eternal Vigil
The year is 2220, a time when governments and nation-states are slowly becoming a thing of the past. Instead, all prominent parts of human society are now organizing around the commands of three great Artificial Intelligences, owned and operated by the world's largest corporation. World peace has been achieved, and the very word 'politics' has disappeared from people's lips. Religion has largely disappeared, replaced in some parts by worshipping of the great AIs, but mostly substituted by a devotion to material goods and faith in the market. There is now a general consensus that the best form of government has been found. No, it is not democracy, nor is it autocracy or oligarchy. Instead, it is technocracy - rule by the learned, the intelligent, and the skilled. And who are more learned, intelligent, and skilled than the great AIs? Exactly, no one. The AIs will correct some market failures once in a while, but shall otherwise let the market be free. After all, the freer the market, the freer the people. Some may question how society advanced to this stage, but that is all they will do - question. Because they will not find answers, for history is no longer taught anywhere. After all, it is not a practical subject. One cannot get a decently paying job with a history degree. Society doesn't have any time for people to idly ponder about the past. No, this is a practical society of practical people: engineers, doctors, lawyers, developers, managers, bankers, soldiers, and the such. My name is Aiden Scivit and I used to be one such practical man: minding my own business, doing my job, with the faith that hard work will always be rewarded by the market...and that politics and philosophy were things thought of by idly people who leech off society. But this all changed, and here is my story, my history. Just because the stories of ages long past have been erased, does not mean that a brand new beginning cannot be created. The story is already finished but I still need to do some editing so a chapter should be released each day for a month. It is a bit political, as you can probably tell by the introduction, so there is that (it will low-key read like a philosophy dump 10% of the time, so really it's like Atlas Shrugged but liberal and worse lol). Also, I actually wrote this in grade 10 as part of my MYP Personal Project, and recently touched up on it for online publication. Finally, if you find the writing style passable and are interested in my other works, check out the one in the link below. It is a fantasy set in the Ancient Greek world, and is completed and uploaded in full: https://www.royalroad.com/fiction/35099/the-oresteia-modernized
