Owls: War of the AcientsHave you ever thought about ancient myths? Theres always such a strange mix of divinity and humanity. It is said that in ancient times we were ruled by the divine beings known as the titans. Names such as Gaia and Chronos are known by many. Story states that eventually the titans gave birth to the ancient gods. Eventually war broke out between the gods and titans and there were many casualties on both sides. Eventually the gods sealed away the titans in tartarus. The titans swore they would reclaim the earth one day. Is great as that story is its only myth, right? Gods, Goddesses, and Titans are all ancient nonsense, right? Well what if it was more than myth, what if there was truth to those ancient tales. What if their return was sooner than anyone could have imagined... Life has always seemed bad for the owls from seeing owls who could destroy whole continents, to facing evil government organizations with secret hopes to destroy all of them, over time the world eventually became bad enough to cause a genocide of owls and humans alike, faith and hope has all but faded even the God and Satan owls have seemingly left the world. The number of people in the world slowly dwindled until in some areas whole cities have become ghost towns. However, when all hope seemed lost a team of owls appeared with vast powers and were able to overthrow the government claiming themselves to be the titans, true to their title their names and abilities fit the titans they claim to be. Years have past since then, and the titans have developed a new world order where they are now gods and are worshiped, while humans work for them and follow their commands, either being manipulated by owls or actually enjoy their rule. However, the chaos of the world had drawn the attention of three owls that exist outside of time and space, they have seen what has happened and can feel the end coming, These owls are known by the title of the fates, now their only hope is to contact the only two owls who have had any contact with ancient forces left. These two owls are Amara and Demios, they can only hope they can become strong enough to pose a threat to the titans. Can they truly find the truth to stopping the titans, and can they find out just who they are? Only time will tell...

In the Human World:
Demios and Amara currently hold a base in the middle of New York, What once was a hustling and bustling place now has half as many people with many people under the control of the Titans. Amara and Demios are currently in hiding, while most humans and owls cannot tell who follows the titans and who can't, the titans and a select few owls in command can and they keep their eyes open. While many people question why Demios and Amara are hiding in New York, they tend to think the best place to hide is in plain sight. There are a few other owl resistances across the world, but none of them pose much of a threat. Demios and Amara hope that between her psionic skills and his magic they can free more people from the titans influence.
(This may be edited for future world events)

In the middle of New York sits a medium sized building, to most people it is an abandoned lot that has been unsafe to be built upon. Few people ever consider investigating into it. Those who do tend to leave forgetting why they even entered. However, to the few involved, this building is a safe house a place where they can grow and learn without fear of being hurt or hunted. This building is the home of a renegade group of Owls primarily lead by the witch and lucky owls Demios and Amara. This group offers refuge to anyone who needs protection from the Titans and their forces. The group is virtually invisible to the titans; their real names, homes, loved ones, all of it is hidden from them. They do their best from their small base to stop the titans but have seen little success. Today however Demios, Amara, and everyone else are taking a day of relaxation.
Demios let out a sigh as he walked down the street and stretched. "Ahh, Amara remember when we could do this kind of thing every day" He said. He knew even when they were younger they had been working as Owl fighters, but still life seemed easier then. "Its hard to believe this town was ten times bigger when we were teenagers" He said. After a while of walking he turned to Amara "So what should we do today?" He asked.

Amara walked down the street looking at the people. New York was no where near as big as it used to be, of course with in their lifetime it had been blown up litteraly and went to hell and back. She looked at Demios and sighed. "I really don't know" she said. "I suppose we can go looking for OWLs who are looking for refuge" she said. "I remember I always wanted to open up a school for our people I guess this is as close as I'll ever get to that dream" she told her good friend.

Demios looked at Amara and rolled his eyes "Amara your a workaholic, its our day off, besides we have people back at home who can handle that" He said. They had walked for about ten minutes before reaching a mall. "Well its cliché but want to go shopping in the mall" he said. He looked to the sky thinking of everything they hadn't done in so long. "Come on, put saving the world on hold for a day and come shopping with me, your no good if you're stressed to death" He said.

Amara looked at Demios and shook her head. It wasn't that she was a workaholic, she just wanted to help. She looked at the mall, it was true she hadn't been shopping in a while and that used to be her favorite past time. But these days since a lot of people were out of their life she couldn't help but feel disinterested. But for Demios sakes she would go in and shop. "Okay...but first we have to go to the shoe section" she said smiling at him.

Demios smiled as Amara agreed and he grabbed her hand "yay!" he said as he dragged her inside. The mall was rather large for one in its day and age, it seemed almost impossible to tell that the rest of the world was suffering from the inside, many of the businesses were doing fairly well, since many people in the town followed the titans they generally left it alone. "Alright according to the directory the best shoe store is on the third floor" He said. As they started walking Demios looked at Amara "I'm glad you agreed I thought I'd have to beg, I'm not nearly as good at convincing people as Armand is....." He paused after he said his name "...or rather was" He said his tone suddenly losing its happy edge, Armand had went "missing" a few months before, the base he ran had been attacked and although Demios had herd rumors he survived it didn't help much, he knew Armand would rather die than be brain washed for once he had hoped someone was dead. "Sorry, we're supposed to be relaxing right" He said.
(Feel free to make up what happened to fellow Owls, just as a foreshadow I plan for there to be a secret resistance in most major cities and a few in small cities, such as: Paris, L.A., San Francisco, Portland, Orlando, Ect...not that we will go to all of them but they may be mentioned)

Amara looked at Demios and frowned slightly. She walked up towards the third floor as her mind raced upon certain events. She still couldn't believe that Lucien was actually serving the Titans. Was he truly that smart that he was stupid. She tried to put that memory away as they finally reached the store. She saw all of the shoes, pumps, wedges, slingbacks....everything. She walked to a sales person eyeing five pair in her size. She looked back at Demios, she couldn't help but wonder how to fight of the Titans...it was something she did everyday. "So after this...when do we go over more plans Demios...I mean yea it's cool to relax and all...but.....we need to keep our minds focused" she said.

Demios looked at Amara, he could tell her mind was on less than cheerful thoughts. He put his hand on her shoulder "Hey, it'll be alright we've been through worse situations" He said. He then looked at her and nodded "Alright, after we relax a bit we can get back to work" he said. As he found a nice pair of shoes he herd a loud crash and a scream it sounded like a child scream. "Amara did you hear that" He said. He looked toward the doorway and saw a kid that was glowing and objects around her were going up in flames. "Uh oh looks like her powers are activating, that means the titans goons will be coming soon" He said.

Amara looked at Demios and nodded. Before she could think of something to say she looked at what Demios had pointed out. She looked around as the girl glew. Walking forward she began to use her abilites. Your powers don't work....nothing is on fire she projected. Amara had gotten really good at telepathy, she was almost to the level of her mother once was. The girl soon returned to normal but that didn't mean that followers of the titans wouldn't snitch or the titans wouldn't arrive.

Demios looked at Amara glad she had calmed the girls powers at least for now. "Amara, you should get her out of here I'll cover you and follow shortly after. "Mesmerize" He said quietly casting a spell that would distract some of the store goers. "Quick it wont last long" He said. He knew guards would be coming soon many trained to fight owls.

Amara looked at Demios and nodded. She soon ran towards the girl, the young girl couldn't be more than 14 years old. She looked scared and confused but Amara took the girl's hand and began to run. She could feel the small resistence but she kept on. "Listen if I don't get you out of here, someone is going to come and get you and do horrible things for you because of what you can do" she told her. They approached the exit as they were now out on the street.[/size
