Chapter 2 - A Brand New Society

Six years later....

"Sir, the reports just came in. We have 200 people being sorted today" said a man in a suit as he put a paper on the desk in front of him.

"Very good, a decent sized sorting this year" said the man sitting at the desk.

The man was none other then John Talon. He still looked the same except for his slightly gray hair. He grabbed the paper and looked at it, then he set it down and looked at the other man.

"I still can't believe that this all succeeded. Our society is fixed, people are happy, and people are safe again" John said, "and I couldn't have done it with out your help, you're my most trusted advisor."

"Thank you sir, but this is all due to your genius idea and your amazing leadership" said the advisor with a smile.

John looks outside the window and says with a chuckle, "We'll see just how genius it is."

Meanwhile, not too far from where the president and his advisor are having their conversation, a fight has broken out.

"Take back what you said, you big ape" said one kid.

"Make me, b****" replied another kid with a smile.

The two boys were standing in front of each other, fuming with rage and ready to go off in a second.

One of the boys was of average height, around 6 ft. tall. He was of skinny, weighing only 160 pounds. He had dirty blonde hair and emerald green eyes. On his face he wore a murderous look, as he stared down the other boy. His name is Seth Greenwood and he's 18.

The other boy was the exact opposite of Seth. He was short, 5,5 ft. He was very big, 300 lbs, with his stomach hanging over his waistband. He had jet black hair, that was dyed green at the tips, and dark brown eyes. He wore a smug look on his face. His name is Gregory Fowler and he's 18.

"Take back what you said about my sister, Gregory, or else" Seth said, through gritted teeth.

"Why?" sneered Gregory as he licked his lips and looked at the girl behind Seth, "It's true. Your sister is a slut. She's probably done it with every guy in here, soon it'll be my turn."

The girl was short, 5 ft. tall. She had a slim, hourglass figure and very perky breasts. She had blonde hair and the same emerald eyes that Seth does. She wore a look of worry, which quickly turned to fear as she saw Seth dash foward. Her name is Anna Greenwood and she's 21.

"Seth, no, don't do it" Anna called out to her younger brother, but it was too late.

Seth rushed at Gregory, punching him in the stomach twice. Gregory, surprised, lost his balance as he keeled over and fell to the floor. Seth jumped on top of him and started to punch him repeatedly, in the face.

Seth knew that if he let up, for even a second, then Gregory would demolish him with one punch, so he continued to rain down blows on him until he felt himself being dragged away.

He struggled to get away, he wanted to keep pounding Gregory's face in, but he gave up when he heard a voice in his ear.

"Seth, knock it off right now" the voice was deep and commanding and knew it could only belong to one person, his father.

"Yes sir" Seth replied and stopped struggling. There was no use in fighting against his dad, he would not win.

Anna ran over to Seth and smacked him, then hugged him, "Don't ever scare me like that again."

After Seth had calmed down, his father asked him what happened to which he answered truthfully, there was no use lying to his dad either.

"Gregory was talking bad about sis. I told him to take it back. Then he called her a slut and I rushed him" he said as he looked his father in the eyes.

His father was of the Heart faction. He was also a police officer, meaning he carried a certain demeanor with him. He was 6,8 and weighed 280 pounds. He had the same dirty blonde hair and emerald eyes as Seth but, unlike Seth, he kept his hair short and in a military buzzcut. His name is Frank Greenwood and he is 37.

Frank looked at Anna with a questioning gaze, to which she only nodded,

"Very well, good job Seth now go home and clean-up, today is important" he walked over to Gregory and picked him up "I'm taking you home and having a talk with your parents."

Seth stared at Gregory leaving, he wanted to punch him in his big, fat, pig face just one more time. Anna, seeing Seth's face, grabbed his arm and pulled him away.

"Come on little bro, we gotta get you ready for the exam and the sorting. Fingers crossed you get into the Hearts, like me and dad" she said with a smile.

"Yeah, fingers crossed" mumbled Seth, as he turned and started to walk away with his sister.
