《Cowboy, Reborn.》School, Drugs and Money 2 ½
Advertisement
Not having one clue about the remaining subjects, Tom decided to go through Theo's memories and see if he had experiences or knowledge relating to them.
Noticing Tom's strange expression the reception lady became worried. Used to students picking subjects within seconds, she couldn't help but think that all of Tom's expected subjects were taken.
Pushing the brim of her glasses she explained her reason.
"I'm sorry none of these subjects are what you expected honey. Since you didn't come to our official induction day the day before the school holidays last year I can only fill you in these subjects. I'll also add in that within the first two weeks subjects do change between students."
Pointing out the subjects one by one she started to explain each class to the best of her ability.
"Horticulture, you'll be gardening, growing plants, learning about plants needs, landscape design and produce marketing."
"Citizenship is about politics, human rights, media, government and the legal system."
"Chemistry's a fun one, You'll be learning about acids and bases, atomic structure, the periodic table, chemical bonds, and chemical reactions.
"Economics is a hard one hmm, I think it's a great subject for your future."
Noticing the reception lady's feint smile,Tom realized that she avoided saying that it was just about money.
Through Theo's memories, Tom had a rough idea of the subjects. Hearing the reception lady's detailed description, Tom wanted to hear about her views and descriptions on the subjects adding more details other than Theo's biased memories.
Noticing his thoughts drifting off Tom continued listening intently.
"I done textiles back when I was your age, I made cute little sweaters. I think you learn more about an apparel approach in this day and age.
"and the last subject is learning Korean language which is self explanatory."

Noticing the reception ladies expectant gaze Tom quickly told her the two subject he decided to pick.
Recalling Theo's memories Tom noticed that he was passionate about one of the subjects, out of respect for the person who gave him the opportunity to live a new life Tom decided to pick that subject.
After picking out his own choice of a subject the reception lady reached out towards a newly printed paper and passed it towards Tom.
Doing these actions Tom noticed her slight wink towards him.
"Honey, don't you lose those times tables, if you do you'll have to pay a dollar for another copy."
After thanking the lady, Mr Nelson headed over towards Tom with Ryan dragging his feet after him.
"Theodore, I'll be taking my leave.
I was expecting to be able to show you around the school because of my past years teaching here. But through my inquiries my request was deemed beyond regulations. Therefore I've scheduled my ride to come now.
Looking back and forth at Tom and Ryan, Mr Nelson continued.
"You two have a great first day at school, I'll be seeing you two back at Hilton."
"I'll try" Ryan replied under his breath.
Hearing Mr Nelson, Tom reached out his hand giving a firm handshake.
"Once again thank you for giving me this opportunity Sir."
During these actions, Tom spotted Ryan rolling his eyes.
Noticing this, Tom's opinion on the guy became slightly worse.
Upon leaving through the door Mr Nelson held it open for another figure before leaving.
Tom could still count the amount of people that he had interacted within Theo's body with his hands.
And this person was one of them.

Beneath No Sky: Chronicles of the Atmospheric Sector
After bringing themselves back from the brink of annihilation, humanity's future seemed bleak. However, it's remnants, throwing aside the old order and donning a new mantle of progress aimed to rise above their ancient disputes and go forward as one. Once the Earth reached it's natural limit, and colonies around Terra and Luna had shown promising results, humanity finally decided to make the move to the stars. Believing this to be the start of a new age, they eagerly poured across the solar system and further beyond, greeting what space had to offer with hope and optimism. It was misplaced, however, for humanity's traditional quarrels soon resurfaced and engulfed a now interplanetary empire of many races.As the Earth Empire burned and an intense depression overtook the once optimistic people, some held out hope. They theorized that their problems were born of an inherent sense of home and, in order to rid humanity, now comprising of the Terrans as well as all the other known species of the galaxy, of this burden, decided to move far away from civilized space, into uncharted depths, to start anew. Some 200 years have passed since then, and those hopeful ones have finally found a place to settle on. Firmly planting their flag in paradise, they called this untouched land "Eden" and declared the beginning of a true new age, the age of After Eden.Trouble, however, seemed to still be hounding them, as barely three years after its founding, Eden finds itself at war with a seemingly uncommunicative and uncompromising enemy that far outclasses the odd pirates they were used to facing. A new era of peace, marked by an immediate conflict. Time will tell if Eden, the Grand Experiment, truly is as great as it's supposed to be. ---------------------------------------- This is a sci-fi, character driven, military space drama. Multiple POV protagonists and lots of unnecessary detail. Somewhat psychological. My first work on this website.

Contact Through Voided Lenses
[participant in the Royal Road Writathon challenge] Edit: Fixed some inaccuracies in the synopsis. The void is a vast unexplored ocean filled with various wonders and dangers all waiting to be explored by those brave enough to travel and record. Many souls do find themselves brave enough to face the vast distances, the various risks to personal safety and do the hundreds of task required on a craft. However, at times the void itself can be boring with absolutely nothing to do but as time pass and more and better technology is reached, things got better. The various trips got faster, communications became faster than light and you can be home to see your loved ones after only months now. Through the various planets whether rocky or gaseous, the various stars whether small or giant, the various systems both eerily similar or completely alien. As part of an expeditionary scientific exploratory survey craft, one could see that the void offers no reprieve from all the discoveries and wonders. At times, it can feel empty and silent where no soul can hear you scream and at others it can be overwhelming with sudden phenomenon that can overwhelm the brightest of minds. The void itself is a truly fascinating ocean where one must chart the various islands or drown in its deadly tidal waves. But the question still remained no matter how you try to hide it in of itself… is there truly other intelligent life out there? Are we alone in this ocean? Those very questions still haunt the minds of those on the crafts themselves as they brace for every jump ready for the unknown and the known. Many would try to explain that yes there is other intelligent life out there whilst other still say no after 2 centuries of continuous flight out of the home system. Still, those are questions that bury deep in the minds of the crew and those at home as the voidcraft jumps to a system with a single yellow star orbited by 8 other planets with one crowning blue jewel being the 3rd closest with its 5 oceans and 7 continents, a planet called Dirt which is inhabited by a primitive species called Humanity. Hello, author here and this is my newest dive into writing particularly for the Writathon currently in progress being my first one. I hope you give me story a try but in case you still want more information on what you’re getting into, below are some pointers about the story itself. First Contact: CTVL is a story about a first contact scenario between an advanced alien civilization and a slightly more advanced modern day humanity on their planet called Dirt. Characters: The story will take place mainly on the perspective of the alien visitors themselves though there will be human POV characters who will show how the rest of humanity react through media and forums. Action: It won’t be an actual alien invasion but you have to see for yourself how well first contact went. Sci-Fi: I will be very forward here, I WILL bend the rules of physics in order to add in parts of the plot and there WILL be parts that makes absolutely no sense whatsoever. Theme: It will be a brooding story talking about the futility of pe… Just kidding, it’s mostly wholesome stuff to be honest here. Alien: The aliens themselves will… actually why should I tell you, you have to go and read it to find out what the aliens are though I will draw a few things here and there to aid in the process. Extra tidbit: If you are a grammar nazi or someone who really wants a realistic scifi story... this story is probably not for you at all. Anyways, that’s pretty much all I can say before I spoil something major of the plot itself, the story is slice of life so make sure that type of story is what you like because I am terrible with anything else as I found out, anyways, have a good time everyone and good luck to the other Writathon participants.
