Shattered Realities- Historical Hamilton by C4PSL0CK

The fifth of July has been a chaotic day for America. When Irene Laizaitė comes crashing through the White House from the sky, many people had questions- and Cassandra Carter's job is to find answers, no matter how bizarre they are. Jefferson was in his second year of retirement. The government was controlled by unfit and greedy bastards, but he promised to never get involved in politics again. He was meant to be happy, but everything seemed so meaningless and he knew not how to change that. Angie knew that Philip was up to no good when he snuck into Papa's office without his permission. She knew that she had to convince Philip to stop, before Mama found them and killed them both. George wasn't in bed yet. He was leaning on his bedroom door, listening to Mother and Lawrence argue. Of course, it was about him. Somehow, all of their stories suddenly collide and come crashing down with a certain white-eyed mathematician to blame. And the 21st century happens to be one terrifying place, especially when you're trying to hide from the government. What could possibly go wrong? --- The obligatory 'Hamilton comes to the future' fic, but I've got a somewhat of a plot figured out This is a FIRST DRAFT! This means that you'll have to deal with characterization and plot that's all over the place, so be warned. Book 2 of 2 in Historical Hamilton. You're welcome to knock yourself out with this one first, but I'd recommend you read the first book first- considering nothing will make sense without it.

Just using them as inspiration for the story and how the characters look like. The collages are made by me. Created this story from pure imagination based on a part of a dream. (which the scene that was inspired by it will happen near the end depends how I feel about the story.) Names my sound similar to the actual people they are inspired by and some are just combinations of what I came up with. ~Warning~ I might change characters appearance to make them seem older as story may go along. (It will rarely happen maybe one or two characters will change who knows)
