Chapter 54

"If you hear me, I call upon the world leaders for a meeting! In here! At the hercules ship!" John said over the comms, where yelena and troy were right behind him

They were now at the informations center inside the ship, where they are attempting to contact all the world leaders.

"Johnny storm! Thank goodness you are here!" PH president said as some leaders were jow online

"We have all waited until this day would come! Please have those countries stop the war!"

"Yeah! Its really hurting more than the economy!"

"Johnny storm, I thank you for now being here. Please have those other countries stop attacking china." Chinese president said as many more got online

"Hold on there people, thats not entirely what I was calling for. I want us to all meet, face to face, in the hercules ship." John said as troy and yelena agrees

"We just got back and first thing we know, is that there was now even a war!" Troy said

"Sometimes I even doubt if me going to the past might have also caused this to happen." Yelena said

"There is also a part of it thats your fault!"

"If only john was here, none of this would have happened!--"

"Shut up! All of you! You should listen to yourselves on how stupid you all really sound! Excuses all over!" John said, before anyone else could ever say anything else

"Excuses?! You really think we are doing all this for fun?"

"No! But you guys are just getting full of yourselves! Which is why we are gonna continue this discussion in this ship as soon as possible! Period!" John said before he ended the call

"Thanks for covering for me." Yelena said, as she almost cried

"No worries. Just like I said, what you have done only redirected us to another possibility within this vast multiverse. Besides, how would they know? When they also cant see the future." John said

"True indeed. And they also have no scientific evidence to prove what they are saying." Troy said, comforting yelena

"So what do we do now?" Yelena said as she wipes off her tears

"We wait on the city square, and prepare everything for the incoming summit." John said seriously

After that, all the people and aliens helped with the preparations on the city center, where they only prepared it simple. Like chairs, tiki torches, sound system, and a broadcast system. Then after a few hours, many world leaders has now come to the hercules ship, while some countries only sent their representatives.

"Thank you very much for coming here today, great world leaders. Though I also apologize if you may be uncomfortable with the current setting." John said on stage. "Now lets begin to how and why it all started, and solve all the problems with our brains than our might."

"You talk like you know politics, when you only know brute force!"

"Hey! Watch what you say!"

"Hes right! Dont you know about world history?"

"I dont remember him to be in any textbook!"

The world leaders were all in turmoil as the audience was divided by those who support peace, and those not willing to reconcile.

"Shut up!" John said before he struck lightning towards the tiki torches and lightning it up with fire

"Whoa! I knew you were dangerous!"

"Like I said, just shut up! Hahh.. if I ever light up 3 more batches of tiki torches, this talk is over and I wont even do anything in this situation!" john said before all of them just shuts up. "all of you are now acting like children here, and even children knows how to apologize when they are wrong. Now speak to me on what happened over the 20 years that we were gone to save the universe?" John said

"Sorry about that john, but some of us already has so much hatred throughout the years of war." PH president said as john understood

"Anyways, here is the full story. You were already there when the war between russia and some of its neighboring countries right? There were also some countries who sided with those countries, which made the whole situation even worse, as they give those countries some support. Then the number of countries who wants to support those countries grew, mostly due to the populace also supporting such movements. Which made the whole situation even worse, where just one more misstep and it was all over." The US president said

"Then even we dont know what happened, that made some stupid group of people attack the kremlin with a teleporting bomb. It was also a good thing that the russian president wasnt around that time, and the group that did it was still at large, though the damage has been done. Russia then nuked the capitals of each of russias neighboring countries, which also killed all their leaders that time, even though the explosion only took out the capitals. So in response to this, majority of countries, specially in west asia, supported those victim countries in full. And even both we and the US have no other choice but to send our troops as well." Canadian president said

"And thats not all, there was also a country which also sent a teleporting bomb to the forbidden palace! Which killed many of my people! Tourists and other as well! And I even hope that someone will be blamed for all this mess! Which is why my country agreed to support the russian president in his efforts! By also terminating business contracts abroad!" Chinese president said

"Which brings us all to this complicated situation right now. The philippines and other ASEAN countries are taking a neutral stand, including australia for now, but even I dont think that our neutral stand can last." PH president said as other leaders also agree

"Hahh.. to tell you the truth, I never also wanted to get into politics myself, but this situation is also like getting myself involved. But since its part of my job, then I have no choice. Anyways, first things first, will those neighboring countries reconcile with russia?" John said

"No! After what they have done with our country, they dont deserve our hand in peace!" A rep said as others also agrees

"Well, lets rewind back towards when all of this started. Those countries wanted to be part of the alliance with america in it right?" John said as they agreed. "But whats so good about that alliance in the first place?"

"You didnt know? Like how--"

"Just answer the question." Russian rep said

"Hahh.. we just want to join the alliance so that we can have more security, and maybe also join them in the future." A rep said as others also agree

"Thats the problem there. If you wanted more security, you could always just go hand in hand with russia, your neighbor! Cause what are neighbors for right?" Russian rep said

"No! We still feel insecure around your country. After all, your country is like the 2nd largest power in the world! Plus we fear your president!" A rep said as others also agree

"You watch too many american TV. We were always quiet when the americans always blame us for almost everything." Russian rep said

"Lies! Cause america is a friendly country! Unlike yours." A rep said as others agree

"Enough! Hahh.." john said as he rubs his temple. "I get now where the problem lies with your countries, its trust. But even if you trust america and the west that much, you wont trust them too much right? Anyways, if you cant bring to trust russia yet, then why not have a trial period?" John said

"A trial period you say?!" A rep said as others agree

"That would also be possible. I will talk with my president about it when I get back." Russian rep said as the others went silent

"The answers in life are simple, its just the process or solutions thats complex, specially with humans. Thats what john said in his book." Canadian president said as others somewhat agree

"Life isnt that simple to just be solved by some kid who knows nothing about politics!" A rep said as others agree

"Pride is nothing compared to doing the right thing, but how will you know if you are using pride?" US president said

"But--" a rep said before he was interrupted

"Everything happens for a reason, but depending on how you use reason, it becomes an excuse. As there are no shortcuts in life, since even shortcuts take effort to do or make." PH president said as the others went quiet

"Gosh I love your wisdom john." Mexican president said as others laughed a bit
