《You're the guy my dad never shut up about? | S. Rogers [1]》1. The accident
Advertisement
"Momma, momma!" Five year old Galilea Stark yelled, as she ran into the house after an exciting day in kindergarten.
"Mommy, mommy!" She yelled again, almost tripping on the corner of the rug.
"Gali are you okay?" Her mom, Maria Stark, asked her daughter, when she saw that she almost fell.
"I'm okay" Galilea said. "Mommy look what I did today!" She handed her a paper. Her mom took it.
"Do you like?" Galilea looked up at her mom. Her mom smiled and crouched down to her daughters level.
"Yes, but, may I ask, what is this exactly?" Galilea was about to tell her but was interrupted by her brother Tony Stark.
"They're blue prints. Literal blue prints" 10 year old Tony Stark walked in the room. Maria looked back to the paper to see her daughters little blue fingerprints on the white paper.
"Blue prints, huh?" Little Galilea nodded. "Well they are the best blue prints I've ever seen"
"Better than daddy's?" Galilea squealed. Maria smiled and nodded.
"Better than daddy's" she kissed Galilea's cheek. Gali squealed and hugged her mom, kissing her cheek in the process.
"Can I show daddy?"
"When he gets home from work, little one. How about if you and your brother go wash your hands, lunch is ready" Maria told her kids. They nodded and they put their things in the living room.
When Gali was done washing her hands, she went to the dinning room and saw her brother sitting at the table. She sat next to her big brother.
"Hi Tony" she smiled at her brother.
"Hi pipsqueak" he replied.
"I'm not a pipsqueak!" Galilea exclaimed.
"Yes you are"
"No I'm not!"
"Fine" Tony said. Gali smiled in victory. "I'll call you shrimp then" she immediately frowned.

"Mommy, Tony is calling me shrimpy!" Galilea yelled to her mom. Maria came out of the kitchen with a plate of chicken and a plate of mashed potatoes.
"Tony, what have I told you about calling your sister names?" Maria asked her only son.
"Not call her names" Tony mumbled "Sorry Gali" he apologized to his little sister. She smiled and stood on the chair, leaning in to kiss her brother on the cheek. Maria stared at her children adoringly.
After lunch, the Stark siblings went to do what they always do. Tony did his homework and Galilea was watching Sesame Street in the living room. She was singing along with Elmo when she spotted her favorite teddy bear on the floor. She jumped off the couch and grabbed her bear.
"Mr Cuddles, what are you doing here?"
"I was taking a nap" a 'bear voice' was heard. Little Galilea turned around and smiled when she saw her dad, Howard Stark.
"Daddy!" She raised her hands so her dad could carry her. He chuckled and crouched down to lift his daughter.
"How's my baby girl?"
"Super duper!" She exclaimed. She then remembered her paper "Daddy I wanna show you something"
"What is it?"
"It's on the table" she pointed to the small table in the middle of the living room. Howard went to the table and got the paper with his free hand. He studied it for a second before asking.
"Blueprints?" His daughter nodded. "Well I have to tell you Gali, these are the best blueprints I've ever seen. Better than mine!" She smiled and kissed her dad on the cheek.
"Momma said the same thing" she rested her head on her dads shoulder.
"Momma is right"
Later that day, Galilea was in her room coloring and Tony was in his 'lab'. The little girl was drawing a stick figure family and when she was done, the first person she wanted to show was her dad. She ran out of her room, paper in her hand.

"Daddy, daddy!" She yelled.
She knew exactly where to go, her dads lab. She went down some stairs and came to a closed door. She reached for the door knob and turned it. The door opened and she ran down the corridor and down the stairs.
"Daddy, daddy!" She yelled again.
Howard didn't hear her, so he didn't come out of his office. Galilea passed big tables, some having vials and liquids. Others having big machines of some sort. Since Galilea was running, she didn't notice the cables on the floor.
She tripped over them, she tried to grab the edge of the table so she wouldn't fall, but failed. She brought the table down with her, along with the vials that were on the table.
"Aaaah!" She screamed.
That, and the crashing of glass and the clank of the metal table was heard through the house.
Howard ran out of his office as soon as he heard the noise. He then saw his daughter laying on the floor, crying and screaming.
"Galilea!" Howard ran to her.
When he got closer he saw that she's covered in cuts, a huge gash on her leg, blood oozing out. Glass everywhere, the liquid that was in the vials, gone. Probably all over Galilea. He went to his knees when he saw his daughter in such state.
"Oh, baby" he whispered.
"Howard what happened, are you okay?" Maria ran down the stairs.
"Dad, I heard a crash. What was it?" Tony ran down as well. They came to a stop when they saw the image infront of them.
"Galilea!" Maria ran to her daughter. Tony stood there shocked in seeing his sister like that "What happened?" Maria asked her husband, tears streaming down her face.
"I-I don't know" he replied. Galilea was screaming and crying.
"It hurts!" She yelled. That's what brought Tony back to reality. He rushed to his sister.
"Gali, I'm right here. Don't worry" he tried to sooth his sister down. She just kept crying.
"Tony, clear the table" his dad ordered.
Tony did as told and cleared off a table. Howard placed an arm under Gali's legs and another under under her back. Pain shot through her body.
"Ow!" She cried louder.
"Sorry baby" he carefully placed her down on the table.
"Tony, go get towels" his mom told him. He ran up the stairs and out of the lab.
"I-it hu-hurts!" Galilea cried.
"Shh, it'll all be okay, baby" Maria soothed her daughters hair. Tony came in and handed the towels to his parents. They immediately went to clean the wounds.
"Howard, the thing that was in the vials... will it-"
"I don't know. I don't think so" Howard answered Maria's unfinished question. He saw that there are pieces of glass stuck in the small girl. "I need to take the glass out" he said. Tony went to his sister' side and said comforting words to her.
"You're going to be okay Gali. Everything will be alright" she responded with a loud sob. "Wh-what if, after this, I get you ice cream?" He softly said.
"T-two sc-scoops?" She croaked out.
"Whatever you want"
"Put this on her" his dad handed him an oxygen mask like the ones from the hospital. He placed it over her face and the anesthesia started to kick in, knocking her unconscious.

Awakening an ancient civilization from their past may be their only hope now. A spiraling doom awaits the world of Isulia. **************** I put the gore warning not because my book is overly gory (It's not constantly blood and guts). However, there are several moments that are extremely violent. I've always loved shows/movies such as, (The Expanse, The Boys, Banshee, Kingdom of heaven, Vikings, Attack on Titan, Baccano, etc.) I am descriptive of the scenes with violence. So be warned :) I've worked long and hard and have finally finished my third draft. Still needs work but everything storywise is complete. There are still a few things I need to add and tweak. Grammatical errors and flushing out the characters and dialogue still needs work. If you see any errors or plot holes, please feel free to point them out. It helps me improve upon the story.

The Magitons
Book 3 of the Universe Series This novel continues the adventure from the previous novel, Ocean of Dreams. Each novel is meant to stand alone. Widhbo ( pronounced "wee bow") is a MC who will be in each of the six novels in the main series. The starship Sora had been hurtling through space using its FTL propulsion system toward the Dezba star system for over a decade since leaving the planet Beldora of the Hellsaxe system. The Sora had crash landed on Beldora over a century earlier carrying a couple of aliens from another dimension. The ship came from the Borrugal Realm, a band world associated with what was known as the Tor Galaxy, what we call the Milky Way. Human life on Beldora was never the same. Under the influence of the alien known as Widhbo, Beldora was catapulted from the steam age to the space age. The majority of the scientific advances on Beldora were attributed to the leadership of a brilliant man, Jejliard Castonea, who was secretly manipulated by the alien, Widhbo. When rapid advances in technology inadvertently led to a nuclear war, Jejliard decided to evacuate his family, friends and co-workers on the Sora. The plan was to find a new habitable planet and rebuild civilization until they could safely return home. Much to his despair, Jejliard’s family and friends opted to stay on Beldora to ride out the war underground. Even the other alien, Gengor, stayed behind. Borrowing technology stored in the archives of the Sora, Widhbo managed to transfer the personalities of those staying on the planet into digital storage units known as magitons which could survive indefinitely in cold, sterile space. Living crew members who elected to stay on board the Sora were also uploaded to ensure immortality for everyone in case their life support systems failed en route. Widhbo sought to design a cyber paradise for everyone inside their virtual worlds, but things never go as planned where Widhbo is concerned.
