Jack [Seems like the battle has ended]
Jack see the battle from the Shore while slurping a smoothie and in a hammock knowing that it be massacre because of the Pion ships and airplanes firepower, armor and speed surpass that of the world's ships and air power. This is also show on earth at the "Battle of Sinop" with the HE cannons and the "Fokker Scourge" with the interrupter gear. The lesson in these two battle is that even with a little difference in technology there can be a huge difference in power. Jack have a small grin on his face.
Jack (Sorry but I can't let another country know what is happening on my continent, seems like there will be chaos in the Veza since it has loss most of her force)
Jack usually dress up ordinary and let almost nobody to know that he was even there. Jack walk up the street and looking straight at the street. There were many people and was very crowded. There are endless amount of ships on the docks shipping products, food and material. Almost all people the area are well educated and very wealthy since of the economic boom for the past 8 year have raise jobs and the demand of products for other countries. The products for the other countries are cheaper and better than their home products which cause a great demand and mass amount of wealth. For jobs there are 9 hour work days with a decent size minimum wage of 10S an hour. The cities have modern day roads and highways for cars and trucks. Railroad expand to every city of the Pion region. There was electricity and plumbing on every building.
New technology also means refrigerator for making food last longer and microwave to cook food. Medicine have greatly improve and it decrease the amount of people dying from infections and diseases. The can foods means that food can be stocked up. The farms are filled with machines, use crop rotation, irrigation and genetic enginnering selcting the traits a plant or animal should have. Domesticate animal have improve for food with not working the cows and bulls which make them big also with chemicals people can raise animals to grow faster (I am not sure this is not good or not). With improve techology of food the amount that people eat greatly increase meaning that the amount that a normal person eats triples and grow to be stronger, taller and bigger.

The resource like oil, iron, copper, lead, sulfur, aluminium, wood, zinc, tin , etc.. They have all been filled by the very thing that Pion is bordered with. The mountains around Pion is filled with the metals that are necessary for the industrial civilization. There are land right next to the mountains that are oil rich and have drills pumping oil to keep the industry running with oil refineries. Out of oil they made plastic which mass produce quickly because of it's a cheap product and material plus it can a be form into many shapes. They also synthesize rubber since rubber is expensive and there is not alot of it and the man-made nylon which is a great material for farbic products. Due to Pion law that Jack has made ensure that plastic does not come out the country so it can be recycled. Nylon is used alot for products that is sold in other countries and making the material the gold of Pion.
The industries of Pion are massive. Jack have simulate the economy and business that is like the modern era. After the improvements of agriculture so there can be mass amounts of food. Jack focus on business and the industry. He wanted resources and machines to be out and into use immediately. He use blueprints and build blast furnance, drills, industries, oil refineries. He also made jobs from city constrution like roads, school, libraries, railroad. plumbing and electric wiring. This force a bad economy into a very business rocket like economic boom. This input in production put the trading with other countries necessary. The new boats that are coming out doesn't fit in the old docks so Jack main objective is to meet the demand of the industries by modernize the old docks and built new docks and town for ships to trade in and out. Trucks and trains make the demand for trading more frequent more of a propriety.

Pion relationship with other countries is kind of werid. Jack said to not call the country you are in Goldlock Empire but instead "America" (I hope nobody is going to hate me for this) because he doesn't want other countries to think that the Goldlock Empire have this technology. The Goldlock themselves doesn't know that the country they are trading with are themselves. Every country calls America a country and recoginze it as such. The people in Pion recoginze themselves as different from the empire and goes along with Jack's act and put up a flag that have (It is the American flag with one big star in the blue square. The other countries are questionable about the country called America but doesn't anger her or their economy will go down and they also don't know America's military power. "America" have claim many islands that orginally belong to pirate but wipe them out and is now part of America.
Pion citizens used to be in a bad state. They have a mass famine and have a bad economy. The citizens are suprisingly good people and rarely have any criminal activities even when there is a depression. When Jack made a new government, build new industry, and improve technology; they simply follow Jack orders like he was a god. Ben, the only noble and person who report and pay the taxes to the capital didn't like following the Goldlock Empire and follow Jack who promise a new country and a new era which allow him to govern Pion with full authority. The citizens got rich and became educated which made them understand the world around them and with Jack education of humanity and what things people should do make Pion citizens friendly and humble. Religion in the Goldlock Empire is following the 14 Gods of the Eternal Heavan which is moderated by the church of Goldlock. However, Pion didn't really consider the teachings of the 14 Gods to be all that great.
Pion government is partly similar to Earthern Empire government. The President at the top with the vice president under him and the main executive under him and the executives under them. The government then just works like the American government but with a lot more people and the President renamed into Prime Minister. The guys from the top can replace the people below with certain position able to do more to certain individuals. This is of course the future.

Overkill
Taylor survived being Khepri and she isn’t happy about it. Swearing that she would find a way to get back to those that left her for dead, she begins to make her way across the desert world of Tatooine in search of allies and just maybe, a new purpose. [A Star Wars / Worm crossover fanfic]
8 138A Titan's Crusade
Erik Thayne spent most of his life being brutally ridiculed and tormented for his weight and physical appearance, among other things. A social pariah and diagnosed with an eating disorder no one has an explanation or treatment for, Erik spent years trying to overcome his issues with his personal image and escape the ridicule and vicious torment of his peers. After years of dedicated effort, and a fresh start in a town away from his childhood and adolescent tormentors, he had finally begun to truly realize what he'd been striving for all along. Only, fate apparently has other plans because in the blink of an eye, Erik found himself snatched from Earth and taken to another universe, another world, where he is offered the chance to be more than he'd ever imagined. Now, he has to fight to restore the Balance between Chaos and Order on a world of swords and magic, in a universe governed by the System's laws, which resemble those of RPGs from Earth. Erik learned to embrace the things about himself that others taught him to hate, using them to reforge his physical identity into something more removed from his old self-loathing. But can he learn to embrace the darkest parts of his mind just as he did the reviled aspects of his body and become who he needs to be to succeed in the task set before him? It might just prove easier to stalk in the dark as a monster than to walk in the light as a man... *This is my first time publishing anything I've written to a public audience. Due to formatting issues, I forwent traditional stat-screens for something a little less problematic, delineating stat screens by separating them from regular text with horizontal lines in a lighter-grey coloration. Let me know if you like them or not. Criticism is entirely welcome, but please don't hate on my work after only reading 1 chapter. This is a writing project I intend to complete but I have committment problems so we'll see how long this goes on. Also, fair warning, as the description implies, the main protagonist is intended to be someone who has been treated cruelly, developed antisocial tendencies, and ultimately has to question his own humanity--or lack thereof. This story is not intended to be brutally dark but I will definitely be trying to follow a darker theme. It is intended to be violent and some scenes later in the story might be...alarming. There will likely also be some light, non-graphic (think more implied with crude jokes and conversation than actual details, there will be no full-blown sex scenes)relationship scenes planned later and if you're opposed to either a bisexual or gay main character, stay away. I haven't yet decided which way he's going to swing but the odds on him being straight are relatively miniscule, and I've always wanted to write a story about a gay man who basically looks like a lumberjack because who doesn't like giving conventional stereo-types the middle finger? This will NOT be a harem story, and I have no intention to focus on romance over action--it's a consequence of character development where I'm concerned, not the be-all-end-all of the story. The cover-art does not, in any way, belong to me. It was an image titled the Druid King (by duskanmarkovic according to the file name) which I found on Google Images. Until I can get something commissioned, this is the best stand-in image I could find.
8 106Hero:Generation
UPDATES WEEKLY The world of Hero: Generation diverges from our own in the 1970s on a night known as “The Aurora Event”. Beautiful and luminescent weather phenomena covered the planet, for ten short minutes every corner of the Earth was underneath a cascade of lights in the sky. It was days later before reports began to filter in, more than could be suppressed by Governments and Nations. The Alphas had arrived. A small percent of the global population began to exhibit otherworldly and super natural abilities, changing the course of humanity. The Vietnam Occupation ended over night, as each ruling nation took action to respond. In the coming years Alphas would begin to change the globe. Russia eventually became an Alpha nation ruled by a mysterious figure only known as Father Winter. America, Europe, and Australia become even larger superpowers as their Alpha populations exploded, in time a United Nations force known as The Guardians was established to police and document the Alpha emergence. The worlds foremost expert in Alpha studies, Dr. Pavel Laghari invented a system known as the Laghari Scale, that scored Alphas on a scale of 1 to 10 across a wide array of parameters ranging from relative physical abilities to other parameters. Now, in most civilized countries Alphas are required to be assessed the moment their powers manifest, or be in strict violation of local and international laws. In this Age of Heroes , The Guardians have designed a new Initiative to recruit younger Alphas and set them on a path to greatness. Every year teenage Alpha’s from all over the globe flock to secure locations to take part in the Guardians crucible. Many will enter, but few will earn the right to call themselves a Guardian.
