It really does feel like a waste using a whole day to travel, but I'm out of Ancients World right now. I head downstairs to see if anyone else is off. It isn't the dead of night like last time so I wouldn't be surprised if Marcus is making it harder for everyone to leave. I bet he is having a blast, he is to young physically to be a weapons wielder so the game will automatically make him a magic user. He will probably be the only magic user in our family, I know the location of some pretty good epic and legacy magic classes. When I meet up with them in Nelmorp I can tell them all where they can find great classes.

I look around the living room and I notice that nobody is here, I'm kind of surprised that Hailey isn't the first one off. She must be having more fun than she thought she would, when I get the chance I should tell them where to level up and grind in their area. I'll admit that having my family be strong gives me a permanent group of allies that I don't have to worry about betraying me. While Cera sits on the couch and relaxes for awhile his family are having there own adventure.

The entire family is almost together here, 2 out of 3 are here with me, and my husband is doing his best to teach Marcus how his magic class works. Its funny watching the confusion and frustration on my husbands face, Marcus isn't great at explaining how his skills or magic class works. I look over to my daughter and I notice that she is having funny learning how to wield a rapier. She chose a weapon of elegance because she thought it fit her players look, even though they look exactly the same. I make my way over to her and see how well she is going, she is catching on way faster than Chris and I did.

I shouldn't be surprised, kids these days pick up on technology faster than it takes to brew a cup of coffee. "I'm really happy you decided to join us Hailey. I feel like this is a chance for our whole family to get closer. All we have to do now is wait for Cera to get here." Hailey stops practicing with her weapon and skills. She turns to me with a smile I haven't seen her wear in a long time. I wish I could have given all my children a better life growing up, this doesn't make it up in my mind. In theirs I think they are just happy that our lives are better.

My happiness is because of my oldest son, Cera really turned out great and I couldn't be prouder. Hailey sheaths her weapon and relaxes. "I can see why Cera loves this game so much, thanks for convincing me to come with you guys. I think our little group will be one that remains in our hearts for the rest of our lives." I haven't heard Hailey say something like that in a very long time. I really need to set some time aside for me and Cera so I can find out what's going on in his life. When I think about it I don't know anything about my sweet boy. I don't like playing favorites, but Cera was my first son. After the incredible task of raising Hailey, raising Cera was much easier. He was always so calm and sweet, and never did anything to cause me or his father trouble.

Those are just some of the reasons he is my favorite, the biggest was his lack of demand for attention and toys. Ever since he could walk and talk I believed in my heart he knew how hard we had it, and he made it easier. I might be one of those moms that see things in my children that aren't really there, but Cera proved it with his willingness to turn down the offer of a new toy. He was always fine with what we had. In my thoughts I hear my husband call out to me. "What's wrong honey?" I come out of my memories and notice plenty of tears streaming down my face. I guess I was a little more emotional then I thought.

While the Adamo's have family time and learn more and more about their new hobby. The infamous company who made Ancients World is under a lot of fire right now. Jericho is currently talking with his long time business partner and friend about the state of the production for new gaming pods. Xander has always been my best friend and partner in crime since we were young, but with so many people breathing down our necks we cant help getting on each others nerves. This is one of those moments, I ask my old friend an unnecessary question and his response is much more mature than my mood right now. "There was no way to prevent this from happening, something in Ancients World change and it affected Angelus. So I don't know why you feel the need to blame me." Xander is not in a right mindset and I'm not either. This has brought some serious tension to everyone in the company. I'm not mad at him and he isn't mad at me, just when there's a crisis you cant help it.

He looks at me and understands that I'm not mad. Asking him if it was preventable was a stupid question. "Sorry about that Xander, I'm not myself right now. Now that the government is knowledgeable about what's going to happen we can increase productivity. The projected deaths have gone down by considerable numbers, but it still keeps me up when I get chances to sleep." I haven't had a full nights rest since this all started to happen. I feel like I've aged 10 years, thank god I don't look it. We both stare at the screen and see that Angelus is playing the silent game still, she only responds when she wants to.

I always wanted her to have independent thoughts and emotions, I didn't think it would turn out like this though. "Its okay Jericho, I'd be the same way if I was dealing with the UN instead of Angelus. You are better at politics than I am so this the best situation for both of us. In news to top off this horrible day Angelus has been drawing power to facility AW for some reason, we cant access the interior or get eyes on the inside. All we know is she is using the machines located on site to create something." This was never something that was foreseen by our equations and scientists, Omega Course is the final outcome. She is doing things to make it harder to prevent the due date though. We still only have 58 days to prepare for the collision. We were hoping to extend that time, but that isn't possible either. The only option on the table is create the gaming pods and get them out.

While this is happening at J&X the Adamo family is getting off for the day. The first one out of her pod is Violet, she is followed by her husband and Marcus as well. Hailey decided to stay on for a little while longer. I look over to my husband and watch him stretch to loosen up his body, I'm pretty hungry so I pick up Marcus and make my way to the living room. On my way there I can smell bacon and pancakes, looks like Cera got off before we did. He was even nice enough to start making food for us, I set Marcus on the couch and head into the kitchen to make sure he didn't burn any of the food.

Once inside the kitchen I notice he is doing an amazing job, I never taught him how to cook. "Where did you learn to do this Cera, I've never seen you cook food for anyone before." I cant help feeling a little left out, I've always wanted to teach 1 of my kids something. Now an option is off the table with Cera. He focuses on the bacon and takes a second before he answers. He turns the oven top down a little to let the bacon sizzle and then moves onto the pancakes.

He picks up the spatula and proceeds to flip the pancakes as he answers my question. "I learned it in school mom. I had a culinary arts class as an elective. I learned a lot about cooking in that class." He never told me he had a class that taught him that, I had the same class in high school myself. That's the class where I first met Chris, he helped me reach the utensils that were placed in high places.

I walk up beside him and check the quality of his food, its looks very good. "Why didn't you tell me you had a cooking class! I could have helped you with assignments and stuff!" He looks at me with one raised eyebrow and sighs. I wont lie that did annoyed me, but I cant get over my disbelief at this secret he was keeping from me.

He goes back to the bacon and puts the finished ones on a plate and puts new ones on. He turns it back up and then begin to cook. "You never asked mom...." I'm hit hard with extreme pain and hurt. I surely asked him about.... What about.... I.... I don't know anything about his hobbies or who he really is now that he is a young man. I feel tears and hurt overwhelm me fast. As the tears begin to fall and soon my sweet boy notices. "What's wrong mom? Did you burn yourself or something?" I'm not even listening to him right now, I'm going through all my memories of my kids and when Cera started going to school I stopped showing any deep concern or interest for him. Even though I did this he still treats.... I'M A FAILURE OF A MOTHER!!! While Violet has a nervous and teary breakdown Cera is more than confused. Soon his father comes into comfort his wife in whatever she is going through.
