"today, we are here to celebrate with the triumph of jake burns and his team, in their mission against the monsters. Though a week has already passed ever since their triumph over the monsters, we cant thank them enough for what they have done. Which is why me and the middle eastern leaders agreed to enact a statue in saudi arabia, in remembrance of their valor and courage in handling the situation. Which we also agreed to enact a list of names beside the statue, in stone, of the ones who were lost in the fight against the monsters." Percy said in his speech

They were now at the site in saudi arabia, where jake and his team were invited, along with some reporters and wprld leaders. Where it was also a cloudy day, with dark clouds in the skies.

"Thank you president percy, now we move on to the awarding of medals. Please come to the stage for the awards." King saman saud, king of saudi arabia said

Jake and his team, including kiara, got to the stage to receive their medals of honor.

"And who will take the stage for the honor of answering some questions?" Saud said

"You take the stage jake, you know more than us about the current situation." James said as natasha agrees

"Are you sure?" Jake

"Yeah, you are our team leader." James said as they agree

"Alright then." Jake said before going to the podium to take questions.

"Jake burns, how and why did this series of tragic events happen?" A reporter said

"All i can say is that this has been a carefully planned by the neo nazis." Jake

"Why?" That reporter said

"All i know is the fact that they are to visit the aliens, to maybe negotiate or something." Jake

"How and why would they negotiate with the aliens?" A reporter said

"That, i dont know. I may not know what their plan is, but i do know that paul manhattan is there among the ones who captured the ship and its crew." Jake

"Paul manhattan? Isnt he in prison?" That reporter said

"No, not anymore. The neo nazis probably helped him escape from prison." Jake

"And why would the neo nazis help him get out of prison?" That reporter said

"Their motives are unclear, but it is clear that they might have a common enemy, me." Jake

"And why does aliens come into play if they just want you?" A reporter said

"As i have said before in my report to the world leaders, which was also released, i was almost killed by the aliens. If it werent for the death god sparing me and taking me back, i wouldnt have been here to save the world again. And who knows what more dangers this world will face, now that science and magic have become one." Jake

"So your saying that there is a death god?" A reporter said

"Yes, in a way." Jake said as this caused murmurs among the crowd

"Anyways, so you mean to say that there are a lot of things that you dont know yet?" A reporter said

"Yes, which is why intelligence agencies around the world are now looking into what the neo nazis are doing, and what they may be planning. Which is also why the americans havent yet released the information yet, they may be ashamed of what the former president of the united states has become." Jake

"No comment on that, though do you have at least some information that you can share to us about the event?" That reporter said

"Nope, aside from the fact that paul manhattan has kidnapped the crew of a ship, which was suppose to be used for project apollo. And now headed to space, to make contact with the aliens, in order to negotiate or make a deal with something." Jake
