Ortum Aquilae

We are in Rome, in the house of the now dead General Antonio Houston. Two men, wearing a dark red military uniform, tailored for public use than fight, approach the house.

They knock the door, and a blonde woman with deep brown eyes opens it.

"Hello, are you Nicol Houston?"

"Yes?"

"We are here to inform you of your...husband current status on the battlefied. I...We are sorry. He is dead. He had a heroic death while fighting mutants outside the port of Ardenza".

A sorrow overtakes the blonde woman, who falls on her knees and start crying.

"What am i gonna do?" The woman says with tear in her eyes "How am i gonna...live, survive, my beloved husband is dead.Dead."

"Maybe it is time for you to... to go back to your old job?" one of the man says with an irony in his face.

"How dare you? How dare you be so cruel in such a difficult time for me?" Just get out of my house!" The woman yells slamming the door on their faces.

A kid appear out of one of the rooms of the house.

"Mom, mom, what happened" the kid says running into his mother hug.

"My little boy, your dad... you will not see him anymore. He is dead. I am sorry". An overwhelmed sadness take over the kid's brain as his feets tremble, falling down to the ground and start crying for the loss of his dad.

"IT WAS MY DAAAAD!" it screams covering his eyes with his hands.


6 days later, the mother and the son have a final discussion.

"Mother, where are we going"

"We are going to your new house. I told you about it".

"Yes, but you didnt tell me what is this place"

"it is like, a big school, with a lot of rooms inside it, so you can live a happy life playing with other childen."

"So it is a school?"

"Yes..yes, it is a school". The mother says as she wipe a tear from her eye.

"Mom, are you crying?"

"No, but remember that i love you".

"Oh there, thats your new school".

The mother says, as the kid is facing a huge school-like place, surroundes by an even bigger forest".

"But this place scares me" the kid says as a man approach out of the gates of the school.

"Hello and Welcome to the Orino state school for dependent and neglected children" the man says, lowering his voice in the proccess so the kid cant listen to the latter 3 words.

"We are glad to accept a new childern to our family. I am positive that you will love your new place and your.. new family". The man says turning his head at the kid with an obviously awkward smile.

"Everything is aranged Mrs. Houston, please follow me".

The mother with her kid follows the man into the school, where she signs some papers.

"The school will provide everything your son needs. A proper education, physics education, even introduction at the art of war and fight, if he wishes so." the man says to the woman.

The woman then kneel down and hug her son. "Please be careful. Promise me you will be careful? I will come to take you by this evening."

"Ok mom, i will be careful i promise, please be careful too." the little boy says as it tightly hugs her mother.
