Fantasy Children of Olympus

[Top11]

Adonis sat bored in a meeting with Chiron and the heads of the Satyrs Minotaurs and Centaurs as they argued and bickered like kids,” they crossed this line!” then another ” Well we caught you on our territory!” And other complaints soared across the room before Adonis had enough. Letting out a groan of mental exhaustion he stood up “ Can we focus on the actual reason we all here please the quicker this is over the quicker you're out of each other’s presence. “ he said plopping down a bit annoyed giving Chiron the floor.

Clearing his throat the letting the noise die down the Centaur began speaking “ Thank you Adonis, I’ll keep this short and sweet. The Demigods will be departing from Thessaly and heading to Athens to help regain a town that has been overrun by Night creatures that has pushed all the humans out if they haven’t already killed or captured them. The reason that you Clan Heads are here is because the Demigods may recruit a handful of your warriors to accompany them and assist as they’re ship hands. If there’s no questions please return to your clan and inform your best warriors you think are fit for the job. “ he said as the others stood and exited, all except for Adonis who stayed back “Adonis, let the other Demigods know of my plan and allow them to prepare for the voyage, everyone will be going so alert them and give them a chance to prepare but don’t wait to long or else there won’t be a town to save.” He said, handing him a map of the territory of Athens and the town circled.

Grabbing the map Adonis made his way to his loyal companion Xander before mounting him. “Take us home old pal there’s work to be done.” He said as the Griffin dove off the edge of the mountain cutting through the clouds before landing in the settlement they called home. “ Go and get you some rest bud we have a long ways ahead of us.” He said as he walked into the Demigod house. Entering the house it was fairly early so instead of waking people up he wrote everyone a note reading “ We have an Urgent task that requires us to go to Thessaly, prepare your Tavel bags and weapons and stay ready for departure.”

Taking all the notes and sliding the door under the door and into the private rooms. With that out of the way he headed over to the training grounds to get a little bit of peaceful time working with Isidro and Keraunos on combination attacks. This is the first time Adonis will be leading everyone as a group this will be quite interesting, the one who worries him the most are would probably be Ambrose he’s the newest her on Thessaly and probably would be the biggest liability to the mission or the most unexpected help it’s a fifty fifty chance at this point.

Brilliant blue orbs flashed open as the daughter of Artemis heard a low growl come from her loyal wolf, Isis. The arctic wolf had a glare angled at the door to her room as a piece of paper slid under the door. Amaltheia slowly sat up and swung her legs over her bed, the copper-haired demigod (technically demigoddess in her opinion) eyeing her bonded friend as she stood up, petite form moving almost silently through her room. She knelt down to pick up the paper, reading the note before her piercing gaze narrowed as she exchanged a glance with Isis before getting dressed. Putting on a pair of ebony leggings with a silver high low skirt, both sides of the skirt slit to allow better movement. A tank top hugged her form fittingly and this was a soft green color with silver embroidery in floral patterns. Her knee-length hair was wavy and put into a messy half-up and half-down style with her weapon Niquessë in comb form placed through the center, blue stones glinting lightly. She opened her door quietly and slipped downstairs, her bag placed over a shoulder as coo orbs scanned for the others coming with on the mission.

Mind you this girl was the daughter of a supposed virgin goddess. The huntress sighed as her wolf padded to her side and sat down, her head reaching a bit above her hips as she was larger than most wolves. "Tá imní orm *, Isis." The soft voice murmured with a slight accent. The girl speaking gaelic was common when she didn't want others to hear her conversation. Her delicate fingers gently ran through the white fur as turquoise orbs closed in pleasure. Theia was curbing the want to pace as she waited, wanting to move and travel as her mother usually did on hunts.

*I am worried Isis - gaelic

Katara climbed back into her room, grimacing at the dust that coated her short chiton from her nighttime expedition and the exhaustion filling her limbs. Hiking through wilderness was not her favorite pastime, but unfortunately necessary for her job. Thankfully, none of the centaurs had noticed her presence intruding on their land. That was a discussion she would never want to have, especially with poison on her person. But if they didn't want to get poisoned, they shouldn't have coated their arrows in it and shot at the minotaur's. While none of them would die, they would definitely be feeling it over the next few days. Maybe then they'll actually just chill. Now, to decide on how to punish the minotaur's for trespassing...

At the sound of paper being slipped under her door, Katara's already sour mood darkened even more. Seriously? She just wanted to wash and sleep. Stalking over to the note, she picked it up and read it quickly, annoyance replaced by worry. Was Rhamnous in danger? She didn't really know how it was faring after she had left, but the thought that her home could either have been overrun or that it was under threat by Hades monsters was not a comfortable one. Chewing on her lip, she stared at the note for a moment longer, then growled and threw it aside. She wanted a bath first, and she wanted to see how Mati was doing on his front. As much as she wanted to end the threat to her home, she also knew she couldn't get bogged down focusing on one area. That had been her first mistake when she had first taken control of Rhamnous. She was the embodiment of Nemesis for the mortals, to enact her will upon them. She didn't have a duty just to one city, or to one people.

Still. Her mind continued to linger on images of her home burning and blackened, monsters swarming its streets and tearing apart its citizens. Shuddering, she busied herself with packing and washing herself, trying anything to distract herself from her disturbing imagination. At the very least, she'd bring the fury of her mother's vengeance down upon them.

Alistina was reading her book within her quarters. Though obviously this book had been read several times over. In response to Adonis sliding the note underneath her door, Alistina merely shrugged.

Wasn’t he supposed to be a leader? Instead here he is, sliding notes underneath doors like an overly considerate fool. If it’s urgent, show that it’s urgent and knock. She refused to go on a quest and waste even more of her time if Adonis was going to act like this. They needed a firm leader, not a friend. She continued to read in her room, contemplating a nap.

Clover was sitting in his room exercising, doing pushups on his floor as he thought relentlessly. The well being of the team was always on his mind, whether he was holding his own weight, and whether anyone else wasn't holding their own weight. Just the thought of his teammates were enough to put a smile on everyone's faces, much like it always was. Clover stood up now, stretching out his arms as he heard a noise behind him.

Clover had barely turned around as a note slipped under his door. Curiosity took hold as he walked over and looked down, grabbing the paper, and sitting down on his bed to read it. It was a note from Adonis, telling them to get ready for travel. As much as Clover wished this fight would be over, he knew that it wouldn't be as easy as praying and hoping. Clover got dressed, dawning his typical battle outfit and grabbing his jacket, sliding it over his body as he looked to side, seeing a feather placed upon a golden pedestal and bowing before it for a moment, smiling to himself. "Give me the strength to keep everyone safe, father. The sun warms every body it looks over. Just as I save everyone I look over. May the righteous sun guide me."

Clover stood, opened his door, and walked out making his way outside so that he could get fresh air, and wait for everyone to wake up. Missions were always good ways to get everyone together before them, he had just hoped everyone would play fair. People like Alistina and Katara were sure to start a problem, but as long as it didn't effect everyone, all would be well. Clover waited outside under the clouds, admiring the sky.

The Spartan sat motionless in his room. He entered into a state of deep thought, a place where he can visualize battles to come. In his mind's eye, thunderous crashes of iron against iron resonated loudly. True to his origin, Xenophanes was wargaming against himself. Dreaming up strategies against obfuscated enemies. Suddenly, a giant tongue from a lovable beast slobbered his face. His grey eyes shot open to see his favoured hound, Cressida, standing before him. Her lips drooped down the side of her face. She seemed happy and purposeful, beginning to lick Xenophanes again. "Ah, down girl, down!" He commanded. And like that, the obedient dog backed away to sit. Xenophanes knew why she got up from her bed. He told her to remind him to practice with his wind-slicing kopis.

Getting up from his knelt position. Xenophanes walked over to the left-side wall—where his bed is placed. From the wall, the instrument of death dangled. Sheathed in a reddish-brown leather with a silver symbol of omega. Grabbing the handle, Xenophanes drew his weapon of choice. Whatever light there was, reflected from the blade's gleaming facade. Slowly lifting it to his side, the Spartan tilted it to the sidewards. He stared towards a tree just outside of his room. Moving his hip first, followed by his sword-arm, Xenophanes executed a slash. The wind itself contorted and convened into a slashing motion travelling forward. The cut chopped off a branch with some twigs.

Another slash, this time faster than before. Followed by another. Xenophanes, Child of Mercury, began cutting with frightening speed. His red cloak, hanging from the wall, began to flap One hundred attacks in just two seconds. But he didn't just throw them around wildly; Xenophanes knew the art of battle. Each strike, despite moving at an incredible rate, was precisely controlled. He spun the kopis with his wrist before sheathing it again. The demigod did look concerned that he might have carried away with... shearing the tree. Hopefully, Chiron wouldn't reprimand him for such an act.

Unexpectedly, Cressida suddenly raised her head from her bed. The scraping of a note underneath his door alerted her. Xenophanes dashed over like a falcon, immediately picking up the note. "Ah, our fearless leader requests our mettle, Cressida." Glancing over to his dog who tilted her head. "Let us not disappoint!"

Xenophanes prepared himself for the journey. Spartan helmet with a red crest, his signature crimson cloak of travel marked by the golden lambda, his Spartan shield, and some necessities for the road.

When he arrived outside, Xenophanes spotted his distant sibling, Clover, Son of Apollo. "chaîre, Clover." He greeted him with an offering of a handshake from his right hand.

 

[KrisKun]

Clover looked to the sound of a greeting when he noticed it to be Xenophanes, holding out a hand for him to shake. While outside, Clover had watched the sun rise above them as his skin and hair were bathed in the rays, giving him an almost angelic glow as he stood there. "Xenophanes! It's so nice to see you." Clover grabbed his hand in a shake, but then suddenly pulled him in, embracing him as he wrapped his arms around Xenophanes, a short hug ending in a pat on the back as he pulled away. "I can only assume you found the note. It's always reassuring knowing you'll be fighting with us." Clover was smiling, looking off to their home, upset that everyone seemed to be stuck inside still. "For a mission so urgent, its rather surprising we're the only ones out here, is it not?"

While the foundlings and the other demigods were doing their own thing. Reina was busy with making the perfect clear skin potion in their quarters by using an essence of water magic, sulfur, tea tree oil, pieces of an opal, salt, and lavender in their cauldron. They did that, because she and the other female slaves would have to deal with the face blemishes. Some of them would be jealous of the clear skin from the master's family, since they have never seen a single pimple on their face.
As for where she got those ingredients, Reina told the Centaurs about the gathering list ahead of time by sending them a letter, because they don't like it when there are trespassers in their territory. When they asked her why she needed that, she told them it was for a perfect clear skin potion. This got their attention, because it turns out the Centaurs have an acne problem too.
They told Reina to give them some of those potions once the recipe is complete, since they want to be the first race to have it. Reina agreed to do that for them, and the Centaurs brought the ingredients to her quarters once they got it.
( Reina asked Adustus to make her a cauldron, since they need to have that for their potion making hobby. )

Spoiler: The Letter

To the Centaurs,
Can you guys please gather these ingredients for me?
Sulfur
Salt
Opal
Lavender
Tea tree oil
I will tell you guys what I am making if the ingredients are delivered.

~ Sincerely, Reina the daughter of Hecate.

The potion wasn't complete when Adonis slid the note underneath the door of her room. It takes a while for it to be completed. However, because she needed a mini break from her hobby. They decided to go outside for a bit. That resulted in Reina noticing the note on the floor, since they hadn't noticed it until now. She then opened the note, read the note, and had a look of disappointment on her face. As their leader didn't bother to knock on their door to warn a busy person like herself about the note. '...Our leader is pretty lazy if he hadn't bothered to knock on the door. Some of us would stop what we are doing if he did that.' thought Reina.
After reading the note, Reina got her wand and spell book, and went to the meeting spot.

Hearing voices, Amaltheia turned her head to watch the group begin to assemble together. Her stunning blue orbs picked out her cousin, Clover. Well, Half-cousin? Oh who the heck cared. A questioning whine came from beside her as Theia glanced down at Isis before the pleading orbs caused the girl to cave. "pàighnich* Isis." The girl sighed gently, following the now eager wolf outside, sticking towards the shadows as her long copper hair flashed just barely as the huntress settled herself by a tree. Piercing gaze, much like her lazy wolf beside her, followed the movements of other children warily. A small tidbit to know about Amaltheia - she distrusted everyone, especially males ... though she might be more lenient towards Apollo's son given the fact he was her mother's brother. Noting the figures present, the girl could even see the daughter of Hecate approaching the small group that was forming, and immediately the girl stood up, almost instantly fading into the background as she gave a soft sound, almost like a whistle - to urge Isis to her paws.

"tha iad do-dhèanta**" Theia muttered under her breath as she slowly made her way into the light. Copper waves flashing as sunlight hit the strands, almond-shaped orbs with icy blue orbs contributed towards the exotic look which the huntress held. Her eyes rolling sky-high in mild exasperation as she overheard Clover speak. Fingers threaded through the pure white fur of Isis as the duo paused just barely close enough to talk to the other demi-gods. She wasn't one to socialize, but she also wasn't one to ignore a summons from their leader. She never understood why she went on missions either - she was a tracker, a huntress, and a loner at heart. She refused to ever let herself have friends, family, even love. That would never happen in her book if you ask her. A soft bark caught her attention, dragging the girl from her memories and into the reality she lived in. A swift glance around the gathering group - caused the huntress to note a missing figure...Alistina. Much like herself - the girl was more prone to being on her own than in a group... but everyone was needed here... maybe they should ask her to come and join? With this thought, Amaltheia entered the house, angling herself towards Alistina's room and braving a knock on the door "Alistina?" Her accented voice was soft and quiet as she waited for a reply.

Xenophanes did not expect his half-cousin to embrace him with a hug so suddenly. "Aye, I have." Cressida moved beside the Spartan. "I arrived early because that is how I was taught." The Spartan shrugged, glancing behind him. "Setting my expectations low meant I was prepared for the fact to be the first here." He gave his reasoning; a chill from the night ran down his spine. Prompting him to cover himself with his crimson cloak, the golden lambda shining faintly. "Regardless, I fear not the battle's outcome. Humanity's perseverance and our divine heritage will be enough to repel any incursion." His signature boasting and the human-centric view are out on display again. The demigods who preferred their godly origin as opposed to their human might take offence to him. But he doesn't care.

His battle-trained hearing tipped him off to some movement behind him. Turning around, he could see nobody other than Reina, Hecate's Sorcerous. Suffice to say: magic like Reina's is not palatable to Xenophanes. He accepts its' usefulness and convenience. He even likes the potions that she brews. However, that still unnerves him. "chaîre, Reina. I see you've got your magic wand ready." Less enthusiastically spoken than his greeting with Clover. Although Cressida certainly liked the witch, barking happily in her deep voice. "Did you also happen to see our residing hunter?" Most of them knew how to hunt, but obviously, Xenophanes referred to Amaltheia.

Aiko
Their sleeping White Tiger Piff, fur was surprisingly soft on Aikos head, he was practically using Piff as a make shift pillow as they laid down on their practically clean floor, they looked at their ceiling lost in their own thoughts. When a note slipped under their door, they didn't even notice it, however their pet dove Voh did take note of it and flew over to grab the note and bring it on over to Aiko. Aiko was at first confused on what the mysterious note could be, but they grabbed it from Vohs Talons and sat up in order to read it, upon reading it completely they groaned and let their head fall back onto Piffs fur. This promptly woke up their sleeping Tiger, and they began to look at Aiko with a questioning glance, but Aiko quickly disarmed them with a charismatic smile in order to assure them which caused their Tiger to relax somewhat. Aiko didn't want to have to deal with whatever task Adonis has set up for them, they looked towards Voh and smiled before saying "Oh Voh, will you please get me the ink bottle, piece of parchment and the quill." it was a simple task and Voh was able to grab both a Quill and Ink at the same time only going back to get the Parchment paper as well. When they finally received the Parchment paper they began to sit up and adjusted themselves to lay on the floor and write, which forced Piff to also adjust themselves a bit in order to make room for them. The note they wrote was quickly made as they dipped their Quill into the ink bottle and wrote.
Greetings Adonis, Child Of Zeus
In accordance with your note I shall give you my own response as with a note as well,
As fun as going on whatever Urgent task you have,
I'm entirely sure that you can deal with it yourself and there is really no point in me going with you,
But if my assistance really is required,
Then I shall send my lovely companion Voh to assist you in my place,
I do hope they will make a satisfactory companion in whatever quest you have,
Good Luck, Aiko
With the note made, Aiko rolled it up and looked towards Voh, "Hello Voh, would you please go help Adonis on his little quest for me, you don't have to put yourself in harms way if you don't have to, just try to be of some assistance to them if you can." Voh gave them a dutiful nod as they took the rolled up parchment into their beak, Aiko stood up from their floor and opened the door for them. Voh took flight and flew out of the room to go find Adonis or anyone else sorta in charge, once Voh left the room Aiko closed the door and resumed to using their Tiger as a pillow. Thinking about perhaps visiting the statue of their mother later on, meanwhile Voh flew on towards the group that was gathered outside the rooms flying in between them all as they scanned the faces of each of them all while flapping their wings in place.

Once she had washed up, Katara had left her room and started stalking through the house to head outside. She heard the others gathering, and peeking out the door, saw Clover, Xenophanes, and Reina standing together. No Aiko, Amaltheia, Ambrose, or Alistina. Sighing and rolling her eyes, she whistled sharply and began striding towards the group, itching to get going. When Mati slinked up to her, she jerked her head back to the house. "Either lead them out or drag them out. Whichever seems easiest. I figured Aiko would be a pain to get going, but if the others are going to drag their feet, you might as well speed things up." When she saw Aiko's bird fly out and towards them, she scowled at it. "Start with Aiko. Break down his door if you need to."

Turning her attention to the demigods already up and about as Mati spun and bounded inside, Katara greeted them. "Glad to see some of you still take this responsibility seriously. At least we'll have a decent, varied lineup to deal with monsters if the others don't show." Distantly, she could hear Mati's first growls and roars, bringing a small smile to her face.
