Prolog

The world had changed, from what you, the reader, live in. Politics,  both the Republic and the Democrat, had fallen. Religion, had caused genocides to the point where mankind was on the verge of extinction. When the people had finally realized what they had done, the world was in ruins. They had no leader, the countries were in ruin, the money was all spent up, and the people were either dying or sick, and stuck in poverty.
A group of 12 wise women and men gathered together, on a ship in the middle of what was called the Arctic ocean. They had gathered to speak and discover a solution that would save mankind. Many were devastated and coming up with nothing but disheartening ideas. Finally a woman spoke a brilliant idea.

"Let us gather our people, and live on the ocean. We must relearn to be humble and allow the world to regenerate itself as it always have. We, as human beings, will get through this." She said to her fellow men and women. Then one called out from the crowd "But how will we survive! We shall all die!" a man cried, she simply looked at him calmly and spoke. "Aries, you must calm yourself. We shall gather all the supplies we have, mostly water and fruit that still grows on the trees. Our people will hunt for fish and plant life on the sea. As for salt water, if we boil it, eventually it will turn back to fresh." Another person called out a question. "How will we sail? Our people have no leaders." The woman inhaled very sharply, but kept her regal poise. 
"We shall sail on 12 ships. One for each of us, and we shall be the Captains. That is what we should, and shall do." She spoke with such confidence, that the others were soon swayed with her idea and they disbanded, returning home to build their ships and gather their people. The woman who came up with the idea, was already prepared, and so she waited for the others to be ready as well. She was called Aquarius. 

On the month of the Zodiac sign, Aquarius, they all set sail on the first day of 
February. They would take different sections of the oceans, and survive until the Earth had regenerated.  Aquarius ship stayed in the Arctic, and the northern Atlantic, Virgo, Cancer, and Sagittarius took the southern and middle parts of the Atlantic. Leo, Scorpio, and Capricorn tried their luck with the Pacific ocean, and Gemini, Taurus, Libra and Capricorn settle in different sections of the Indian ocean. Only Aries, alone, went as south as they could, going in the seas that surrounded Antarctica. On these ships they stayed, for many generations. It wasn't until the now olden Aquarius released a dove on the country once known as Canada, and it returned with a Maple Leaf did Aquarius send word that they could return, once more, to land.

Once the people set foot on the land, they soon were toppling over, because of their sea legs and many of them had never stood on solid ground before. Only Aquarius and the rest of the Captains, stood with pride as they watched everyone quickly adjust to the now stable ground.  Aquarius had been right, in their absence nature had repaired itself, plants and animals were running around, and they quickly formed new settlements around the world. This time, however, they were much more careful with their natural resources, and when they reinvented electricity they used renewable energy such as wind power, solar plants, and the power of the sea. They made ways and stored it to the point where they had enough energy to last them to the end of time, and they continued to store it. This lead them to recreating cities such as London, Philadelphia, Montreal, Tokyo, Sydney, and New York again. Everyone was treated equal, no matter sex, skin tone, or race. Women had the small rights as men, as did other Races. Aquarius was going to make sure that the world never repeated history, she wrote everything down as unbiased as she could and published the History books. Child would learn them in school, and nothing would be hidden from the public. All the Captains had agreed that their settlements would be a democracy. They would elect their representatives, and they would be a President or a servant for the public. Not a king or a diactor. People started considering themselves by their Zodiac signs, and you wore the symbol of it around your neck as an amulet. It became a part of life. Some people, even got lost in it. That leads us to the events that soon started to unfold. It started with a girl.

She was an Aquarius.

Chapter 1

Katie Hitchens, age 14, sat in front of her solar powered laptop in the dining room of her home. Her four dogs, all spread across the house were sunbathing. It was a beautiful day, and Katie knew that today her mother would take her out sometime around 2 or 3 o'clock. They would have the sunroof down as well, she smiled at the thought. She frowned when she ran a hand through her oily thick dirty blonde hair with red and blond highlights, if she was going to look presentable she would need to take a shower.
