Fantasy Son's and Daughters of Olympus

[Elias]

Luke nodded in approval, then entered the water of the fountain. Grabbing a side of the structure, he gathered his force, and helped Freya twist it. It was quite heavy, but after several minutes of huffing, they finally topped it to the ground....


''What now?'' Luke panted...

 

[Vaila]

Freya shoved it over and sighed, closing her eyes. "Now you sit with Abby and try not to kill me," she said opening them with tears in her eyes. She walked around the fountain, avoiding the hole that the tower had once covered. Moving right up to him, she ran a hand through his hair at the back of his neck and kissed him passionately.


Abby grabbed hold of the end of one length of rope, still clutching the bottle as she tried to ignore her sister kissing a stranger. Or at least a stranger to her.


Freya pulled back without a word and began to fasten the lengths of rope around her. She placed one around her wrist, and another around her waist. Turning to Abby, she kissed her forehead and took the bottle without another word.

 

[Elias]

Luke watched her in silence. Altough the kiss made him feel like he was in heaven, this was definitly not heaven. What was Freya trying to do? Was she going to jump down? Was he going to lose her, again? Even though, all these thoughts ran through his mind, Freya told him to stay put. And try not to kill her.


Altough confused, he took some steps back and waited for what was going to happen....

 

[Vaila]

Freya handed him the end of the other piece of rope before stepping forward and looking into the hole. "Don't pull me out until I've gotten it done. The water will turn green when the source is removed. If I'm not up in 3 minutes then assume the worst," she whispered, sitting in the water and sliding her feet into the hole. "Hail to you Mighty Poseidon Lord of all the waters and Oceans of Gaia may all those who suffer, suffer no more and find peace and serenity within your watery realm," she said softly before closing her eyes and taking a deep breath, sinking into the water and swimming down to the bottom.


---


Abby let the rope slide through her fingers, keeping hold of the end tightly. "Hi," she said to Luke, staring at the hole. "I'm Abigail."

 

[Elias]

Luke stared at Freya lowering herself into the hole, listening to the way she 'prayed'' at Poseidon at the Oceans of Gaia. Next to him, a girl saluted him telling him her name.


''Luke'' he said smiling faintly at her. ''I'm the son of Poseidon. And you must be Freya's sister. What is she doing down there?''

Demetri rolled back to his room sighting. He felt ,deep in his guts, that something terrible would happen, but he hoped that his strong intuition would be wrong for once. That's why he made sure not to be the only one to make decisions, especially when he won't be able to be there face to face. He knew that Jethro would be able to call out the faulths if any in Demetri's plan and could easily make sure that everyone important to them came back safe. After booking a few rooms in some cheap hotel near Acropolis and tickets for the Ferry and Bus ride to Athene's, he could feel the medicine starting to have less effect, even if their was less poison in him it still hurts like hell. He didn't want to show to anyone that he was in great pain, and particularly the spot that he saw when he showered. Lifting his shirt, he could see a dark kind of wound on the left side of his hip where the impact had been made. It was where most of his pain concentrated and the main reason why he had such a hard time walking. It seemed to be constantly growing and right now, it was big like a pea bean. He didn't know what this was and it didn't seem to heal despite the medicine. This can't be the poison...it's something else..If only I had time to analyze their powers tsh..


Demetri forced himself up his chair, trying to balance his weight with the help of the furnitures around, he wanted to go to bed but the first step he made, he fell and crashed on the floor. The wheelchair ended up getting kicked out of reach for him. He muffled the cries, the pain stinging, all of his lower body felt numb. He stretched his arms trying to grab one of the medicine on the low table but his finger simply brushed it and made it fall the opposite side. Losing the will and feeling fatigue from his all nighter, he ended up closing his eyelids and falling unconscious when the alarm started.

After practically passing the whole day on the Island visiting the city of Kythira, Hunter and Ira walked back towards the resort hand in hand. Hunter knew what was coming up with Kronos, and that was the main reason why he really wanted to have fun and make this memories with Ira. Time was never in their favor and they could rarely be together alone or without one of them asleep. Their schedule weren't really the most concording ones even back home until he resigned being as a waiter with great tips to being a piano tutor for young kids. He didn't mind tho, he would do anything for her even give his life if needed. He was actually quite a fool for her, thrusting her every word. He didn't mind it tho but Demetri often reminded him that a girl often had two faces. They could say they love you one day to have something for you and the next day dump you for something better.


He smirked remembering the exact words he had said ''A woman's heart is like a autumn sky.'' At first, Hunter didn't understand the meaning of this say. But eventually he did just by living with Ira. In other words it meant that a woman has fluctuating beauty and changing moods. She is never stationary, like a piece of art. She is more than art. She is human with shifting emotions and words. Hunter did understand what Demetri meant by that but he also saw something else in it. That same woman will be the one cheering you up when you feel down and is the one who cheers you up. The same sentence could be interpreted in two very different ways depending on the person.


Hunter looked at Ira hoping that she had fun with him today. He knew he did just by finally spending a whole day with her.


The sunset finally setting, he looked at his girlfriend and somehow started giggling. He glanced at her occasionally noticing that her skin almost looked like it was radiating and goldish because of the rays of the sun. He squised her hand unconciously thinking of something. He finally found the courage to ask her these few simple words. '' Have you ever imagined a future with the two of us?'' (@CrimsonBanchee )

(Oof, sorry guys! Thats what I wrote...7 hours ago before my computer crashed including internet..Ill try to reply as fast as possible but my internet is being a bitch.: PS: Yes its long im sorry O_O I didnt realize and the juice was flowing... yesterday at 1am)

 

[ModernRanger]

Jethro moved quickly back into the compound he looked about for someone to explain but when he did not see anyone right away he then resorted to calling out,


"What is going on here?"


His voice echoed down the hallways.

 

[Vaila]

Abby nodded. "She has to swim to the bottom of a giant hole and collect the source of the Aphrodite's Fountain. It's pure energy. She has to trap it in the bottle but the power is overwhelming. The concentration increases the further down she goes." She looked down at her hands. "What mother wants mother gets."


---


Freya swam through the dark water, her eyes open looking for the piercing light that would guide her way. She'd been under the water less than a minute and already she was struggling to hold her breath. She wished she'd spent more time diving off the coast of the island to better her breathing but she couldn't think of that now. Diving deeper, still clutching the bottle, she spotted it 50 metres below and pushed forward. She could feel her head growing fuzzy from the lack of oxygen but she had to continue. Her body was absorbing particles from the water itself, her powers growing stronger with each second she stayed under water. Something moved out of the corner of her eye and she shrieked, some of the air escaping from her lungs and bubbling up to the surface. She clamped one hand over her mouth and swam deeper.

 

[JustAnAuthor]

( you said you indirectly asked, might have read wrong but just go with it)

 

[Elias]

Luke shivered as a couple of bubbles had hit the upper part of the water. He didn't know about the gravity of the situation, and now he couldn't dive after her. He should have stopped her before... ''What is happening down there?'' he shrieked. ''She could die!'' he said unable to think what he would do if something that horrid would have happened. Closing his eyes, he prayed at Zeus and Poseidon. ''Gods of Lighting and Water. Guide over Freya. Don't let her drown'' he said as he opened his eyes, searching to see through the deep.


((I gotta go, be back later. If Freya does come out or such, just assume Luke is there by her.I'll be gone for 2-3 hours, I suppose))

 

[ModernRanger]

Jethro ran forward as he heard a loud noise coming from Demetri's room. He looked at the lock door and instead pounded on the door.


"Demetri, are you alright in there?"

 

[Vaila]

Abby grabbed his hand with her spare and squeezed, as tears flooded her eyes. "She knew what she was getting into," she whispered in a choked voice.


---


Freya continued to swim, trying to ignore the moving creature in there with her. Her hands were shaking harshly as she reached the bottom, and she was barely able to concentrate as she walked along the sandy floor. When she was mere inches from the source she opened the bottle and guided it around the bright white glowing light, carefully trying not to touch it. When it was secured inside the bottle, she replaced the lid and clutched it to her chest. The water began to turn green around her, it's magical properties disappearing. She began to swim back up towards the surface when her legs were grabbed by the creature as they tried to wrestle the bottle from her grasp. She screamed, further bubbles releasing from her mouth. The creature pulled the lid off and a white light exploded from within. It was then that Freya noticed what they were. Naiads.

Spoiler

She kicked away from them, grasping at the lid in an effort to get away from them. But in her haste to put the lid back on, her wrist brushed the light and a searing pain shot through her body. She screamed, shoving the lid back on as her skin began to bubble. As the air left her lungs, blackness started to cloud her vision.


---


Abby noticed the bubbles and shook her head, beginning to pull the rope to reel her sister in. "That's too much air," she shouted, pulling as fast as she could but she wasn't strong enough to do it alone. She noticed Luke pulled as well and she hoped that it would be enough.

 

[32sillylight32]

Demetri's eyes slowly opened, it looked like he was sleeping for a week but it had been just a few minutes. He could hear like an echo, someone pounding at the door and a distant voice. A few whispers joined in with a shrilling voice and he felt a wave of cold air surround him and just disapear. He was too confused and out of it to notice anything. He slowly tried to stand up but he failed. He made a few grunts and finally muttered a few incoherent words. 
(Assuming that Ira replied)


Finally reaching the resort with a huge grin, Hunter heard the loud noise of alarms. He didn't understand the meaning but he saw Abby and Luke pulling on a cord. He ran towards them, '' What is happening? Who's in there?'' he said with a hurried voice pulling on the cord that was pretty loose since they seemed to be hurried to pull out something.

 

[ModernRanger]

"Demetri, I need you to stay away from the door."


Jethro stepped back, closing his eyes he took a deep breath then stepping forward he kicked the door with all of his strength.


The door broke off the hinges and slammed into the wall on the other side of the room. Jethro took a step inside the room and saw Demetri on the floor. Leaning down he picked Demetri up and brought him to the bed. He laid Demetri on the bed and kneeled next to the bed.


"Demetri, can you hear me?"

 

[Vaila]

"Freya," Abby gasped out, pulling as quickly as she could. After a few seconds she spotted Freya's head and grabbed hold of her arm, pulling her out. Taking hold of the bottle she stepped back with tears in her eyes, knowing that even though she wanted to see if her elder sister was ok she had a duty to deliver the source to Eros when he arrived. She watched as Freya lay in the shallow pool, shivering as she coughed up water.

 

[32sillylight32]

Only distant whispers and roars were heard. The moans of dead souls accompanied by screams of despair. Demetri opened his eyes and found himself chained to two apple trees "where am i?" He told himself. He was only wearing a white toga and what he would wear in Olympus. He looked around but there was nothing but fields of grass and a breeze of very hot air brushing it. He then looked straight forward and noticed something but before he could figure out what it was he woke up and saw Jethro. His face full of confusion, he ran a hand in his hair."Something is wrong... I...I don't stop having those dreams.."

 

[32sillylight32]

Hunter saw Abby run out and deliver something but he saw rhe pained look. His thoughts then turned to Freya who was coughing up water. He ikmediatly bent down next to her, his hands on her trying to make sure she doesn't choke with the water he swallowed. He didn't understand the situation and he simply tried helping her not die in front of his."it's fine... You are finally out of there.. It's fine." He said trying to relax her.

 

[ModernRanger]

"You need to be completely honest here Demetri, have you noticed anymore ailments since you were attacked. Anything at all seem abnormal to you?"

 

[Vaila]

Spoiler

Freya opened her eyes revealing nothing but black. She placed her hands on either side of his face, closing her eyes again as she pressed her forehead to his. She began to speak quickly, her words coming out in a jumble. "Naiads.. Cronus... Thánatos... Pragma...Kallos...Epithymía... Eros... Thánatos... thánatos," she muttered, swallowing hard as she closed her eyes and felt around his face with her fingertips. "Thánatos..." Leaning forward she kissed Hunter's lips softly, as her emotional control shattered and she began to send waves of Lust, Love and Desire in every direction.


---


Abby ran towards the DU, her arms wrapped around the bottle and tears streaming down her cheeks. She needed somewhere safe to hide until Eros arrived, but she really didn't want to be alone. Making her way to Demetri's room, she entered, not bothering to knock before looking up at the two men inside.

 

[ModernRanger]

[um excuse me, Demetri's door has beeen kicked off the hinges. Jethro is currently kneeling beside Demetri's bed.] 
Jethro turned around, He saw Abby's tear streaked face and his eyebrow raised.


"Abby, what is the matter?"


He asked standing up to look at her.

 

[32sillylight32]

Demetri glanced at Jethro, his mind completely confused and feeling dizzy. He couldn't decipher exactly the shapes of stuff. Closing his eyes, hoping that it would clear up, he could hear his own heart beat and then laughs of young children '' You can't catch me!'' the distant voice of a little girl. Demetri saw himself running after the girl with a small amused smile but it faded as he saw the bloody girl on the floor looking at his face. ''You can't save me.'' Demetri snapped his eyes open, everything around as clear and defined like its suppose to be. He sat up and pressed his back on the headboard. All of this seemed too realistic, he could feel something wrong in him but he couldn't tell Jethro. He had to focus on the task given to him. He groaned and then gave his usual smile, '' It's fine...just the poison making me dizzy..'' he said softening the situation. He couldn't afford having Jethro concentrate at two stuff at the same time. Demetri could take care of himself just fine and Jethro had to make sure that everyone was coming back safe.

 

[Vaila]

((Sorry I'll edit))


"Freya," she choked out as she gripped the bottle tightly to her chest. "She's out of control," she said softer, looking down to the ground. "She touched the source of our mother's power over humans. We aren't supposed to do that..."

 

[32sillylight32]

Demetri finding the oppportunity to not make Jethro concerned of him, he looked at Abby.''What happens now? what are the effects?'' he asked more ordered. Maybe he could figure out something to help if he had enough details

 

[Vaila]

She moved over to him and sat by his side, gripping the bottle to her chest tighter. "I don't know," she said, trying to be brave. "Best guesses are power overload and loss of control. But it could be a lot worse..."

 

[32sillylight32]

Hunter was lost in thoughts until she pressed her forehead to his and started naming weird names. '' What are you saying-'' he couldn't finish his sentence as she pressed her lips to his. He didn't expect it and tried pushing her away even if Ira wasn't there. He tried speaking even if she was kissing him. His hands trying to push her shoulders, he could feel the powers of Freya overwhelming him like nothing before. Nothing like when he helped her with her powers. He found himself leaning more into the kiss even if he didn't want to and at some point his hand slipped under her shirt holding her by the waist.


-------


Demetri nodded, '' Where is she now? Why did you leave her behind and what is this?'' he asked pointing at the bottle about to grab it until his hand twitched and pulled back instinctively. He didn't understand this, his body felt unknown.
