Chapter 18: A moment of stupidity

     
     Everything has an End. Nothing was eternal. Even an advanced alien civilization from another universe wasn't exempted from the rules.

In desperation and hope for survival, they created a massive megastructure. Made from the core of a star, its purpose was the search and extraction of resources for the continuity of the said civilization. Leaving their planet, they sailed through the vast sea of stars and universes.

A very long time was what the Ark of hope of that civilization experience. Finally, the structure arrives at a universe suitable for the habitat of the Alien civilization. But that advanced civilization was long gone. The small numbers remaining slowly perish while on that massive structure. With different ways and reasons– they are long gone.

Yet the mothership's artificial sentient mind decided to continue on its main purpose despite its creators perishing. After the advanced civilization was gone and before it arrive at a suitable universe, the creators decided to create an artificial multiple beings. Using most of its functionality, the Ark was successful.

After the creation of multiple beings, it decided to separate itself from the other artificial beings. It has chosen a successor and passed the position and it's the purpose as the 'leader' when it arrives on a planet called Earth.

In this version, the hope of the advanced civilization gained a natural consciousness despite it being artificial as time passed. After creating multiple beings, passing their position, and arriving on a suitable universe and planet, it finally decided that its duty was fulfilled. Chaos decided to slumber. Despite creating fellow artificial beings, it wasn't what it was looking for.

It wanted the creators. Not its creations. Chaos was useless. It tried to arrive as fast as possible to a world suitable for the creators. It finally arrived, but Chaos was a failure.

The creators are long gone, what purpose does it have after passing the authorities to its spawns? None.

Chaos went to permanent slumber after arriving on Earth. The Titans settled on their new environment. After their settlement, they were worshiped as gods. Then, came the rebellion. The next generation, the ones who called themselves Olympians rebelled. Led by Zeus, the Olympians

The Titanomachy started. But before it ended, Sefar has arrived.

        Jason felt fear and dread as the sharp sword was pointed at his neck. The bandit has Jason captured.

" Don't move! One wrong move and I would kill this child! "

It was careless of him to be in this situation. Is this how would his life end? In this way? Being killed by a bandit?

If he shouldn't just become careless and stay close to Chiron. If he shouldn't save one of the people from the merchant caravan. It wouldn't end up like this.

Jason felt the bandit's hold on the blade tighten. The point of the sword graze on his throat making it to started dripping with blood.

Jason hated the feeling of pain. He stared at Aristaeus who look so gloomy from the distance. And at Chiron whose, eyes were brimming with unexpected emotions on his usual calm, collected, and caring eyes.

Then suddenly, he felt the blade move closer and—

" You should wake up now, Jason. Well, it was underwhelming if you die in that way wouldn't you? "

A voice questioned and suddenly, Jason felt himself waking up in his nightmare.
