~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Rose woke up in the morning around 0600, she wakes up around the same time every day, even on a Sunday.
She did her usual routine, and like always, she left cooking breakfast last.
She loved cooking for Acheron but today was a little different than it has been for the past couple of weeks, she found Acheron in the living room with Athena.
Obviously as an AI, Athena, did not required sleep, so she could stay with Acheron all night.
This fact always made Rose jealous, but she didn"t mean to be this way... some girl jealous of a computer program that had no actual body.
She doesn"t really mean to be jealous of any one at all, but she just can"t help it.
She knows Acheron could not and would not solely belong to her, but she can"t help to wish for it.
Ever since Acheron picked her up from the streets and changed her fate, Acheron had become her whole world, she wanted to do everything for him.
It warped her mentality a little, but she wasn"t crazy enough to actually hurt any female that gets close to him, she wanted to, but she doesn"t… not unless Acheron wishes for it or the family votes for it.
As she cooked a typical j.a.panese breakfast, for Acheron and her, she saw Athena leaned unto Acheron and rested her head on his shoulders, she then looked towards Rose and gave her a smirk.
When Rose saw this, the spoon in her hand snapped in half, she took a deep breath and contemplated putting a virus in her system.
"Breakfast is ready Acheron-sama!" Rose called,
Acheron got a up off the couch, his shoulder phasing through Athena"s head, and continued to head towards the dining table.
Athena pouted for a little bit before disappearing and appearing already sitting down by the table with a plate of holographic food right in front of her.
Though Acheron treats Athena as part of the family, as she is something he created, he has no delusions about the state of her existence, as she a mere AI and projects a holographic body.
Her real body, known as the "Cortex", lays beneath their feet, 3 sub levels down in the Command Center.
"Looks delicious as always, Rose" Acheron said as he sat down,
Rose smiled,
"Thank you, Acheron-sama"
Then she directed her smile at Athena as if saying,
"Can you even cook b.i.t.c.h?"
Athena just continued to smile but there was a visual tick at the corner of her eyes, it appeared she wasn"t will to succ.u.mb to Rose"s provocation.
As they ate in silence, Rose"s phone got an alert.
*Bzz* *Bzz*
She looked at the message and before she could report it to Acheron, Athena beat her to the punch,
"Darling, we just a report that more bodies were found in the streets of London, the limit you had set has been reached"
Rose hatefully glared at Athena for taking her report from her, while Athena just looked towards Acheron.
Acheron sat there in silence and continued to eat his food, both Athena and Rose did the same, when Acheron was ready to talk, he will.
After a couple of minutes of just chop sticks. .h.i.tting the bowls and the sound of chewing, Acheron finally finished his breakfast, a big sigh escaped his body, before looking at the women in front of him,
"Prep the jet for London, will you Athena?" Acheron asked, he then turned his head towards Rose,
"You shouldn"t come with me this time, Rose, Mutants will be involved, and as always, they will be far stronger than you"
"Ill go Acheron-sama" Rose replied, "Besides… you will be there to protect me"
Acheron smiled,
"You will stay in the London base and you won"t leave it, especially at night, okay?"
Rose nodded,
"Yes Acheron-sama, I"ll do as you ask, as long as you come home" Rose said,
"Darling, the jet will be ready in an hour" Athena said,
"Okay… Artemis?" Acheron called,
A five-year-old little girl with pink hair and a cute and pudgy face in a pink little sundress appeared right beside him, and gave Acheron a hug,
"Yes dad?" Artemis said, as she looked up at him,
"I"m giving your first task, okay?" Acheron looked down at Artemis with a smile,
Artemis beamed at the thought of her first task, she could wait to execute her father"s commands.
"Start defense protocol #1" Acheron said,
Artemis"s eyes flashed with computer code as she her programming took over,

"Defense Protocol #1…. Protection of current base while Creator is Absent…. Sub-levels 4 and 5 given highest priority.... 100 Ferrymen have been summoned…. Rest of protocol will be executed when Creator leaves the premises…"
Artemis eyes turned back to her regular neon pink color as she looked at Acheron for approval,
Acheron smiled and pretended to pat her little head,
"You did great Artemis, you can go play with your sisters now"
Artemis giggled before disappearing,
"She didn"t even say h.e.l.lo to her mother!" Athena said as she pouted, clearly noticing the favoritism in her daughter.
"Rose? Could you put a leave for the school?" Acheron asked,
"Already on it Acheron-sama, how long should it be for?" Rose responded,
Acheron tapped his chin for a bit, thinking,
"Make it about a month, just in case something unexpected happens" Acheron said,
"Okay, no problem, I"ll do that… speaking of school… a report from Psyche came in, she changed the memories of everyone except one, that person escaped from Psyche… her failure should be punished Acheron-sama!" Rose said,
"There is no need for that, Rose, let me guess… it was Kobayas.h.i.+-sensei, wasn"t it?" Acheron said,
Rose clearly looked impressed with Acheron"s guess,
"Amazing Acheron-sama! How did you know?"
Acheron chuckled,
"She"s a mutant of course, I knew that the moment I met her, she is probably from the JMSF" Acheron said,
j.a.pans Mutant Special Forces, also known as the JMSF. As the name suggest it is a team of special forces comprised of mutants.
Every country has a team similar to the JMSF, each with its own mission. Their treatment also defers from country to country, j.a.pan is one of the countries that doesn"t really discriminate against them and treats them fairly well.
It is usually those third world countries that treat them as slaves or suicide squads.
"Should we get rid of her?" Rose asked,
"No, don"t you think it will be interesting how she will react when she finds out she is the only one that remembers what really happened?" Acheron said,
Acheron started laughing while he pictured her face coming in to work on Monday,
"I wish I could be there to see it… oh well, lets hope she still gets a reaction when I return a month from now"
"Darling, we should get going now" Athena said,
"You are right, be sure to have our daughters download themselves throughout all our servers" Acheron said,
"Oh Darling! You called them our daughters! I"m so happy!" Athena exclaimed,
"I created them, so of course I would claim them, besides that includes you too, Athena" Acheron said,
"I don"t count Darling! I am your wife!" Athena said,
"I don"t remember you getting married, Athena! I"ll be the one to marry Acheron-sama!" Rose exclaimed,
"ArAra" Athena said,
"Let"s go! You can argue about this later!" Acheron said,
Acheron got up and headed towards the 1st floor.
The moment they left, 100 hundred shadows moved and posted themselves around the abandoned factory, each wearing black tactical gear, with all kinds of weapons strapped to their bodies.
They wore a skull mask underneath a hood, with the eye holes glowing in different colors.
(A/N: Similar to Deathstroke"s gear but with a hood and life-like skull mask)
