Fantasy Son's and Daughters of Olympus

[firejay1]

So maybe they were demigods then. One of the girls was feeding a grape to a silver whip wrapped around her arm, and he just noticed that the other was carrying a rifle with her. Was that even legal here? "He said I'd know where to go when I got there." Kay said. He laughed at the other girl. "I guess you caught me. This's Jin. My pet crane. We're meeting there cause the city's an old favorite of his sister. That a snake or a whip you got there, lady?"

Fawn had stayed outside all night; sitting by the waters edge, trailing her finger gently on the waters surface; humming as she did. As the wind began to pick up at dawn,she crinkled her nose as an Oder took wind. She stood up curiously; following the scent of something... Appearing to she rotting.


She found a small wooden rowing boat caught ashore further along the shoreline. Her steps quickened, almost becoming a jog as she got closer to the boat. Her eyes widened at what she saw; a dead, decaying body of a man, no older than his mid twenties. She felt the blood immediately drain from her face. Keith a shaking hand she took her phone out of her pocket, she reluctantly took a picture, knowing she had to alert the others as soon as possible.


With no obvious signs of his death, she took more pictures of both the boat and the surroundings, before sprinting back to the others, pupils dilated, skin drained of all colour.


She kept sprinting, until she saw Frey, Idris and a stranger lost in conversation.

"You called me Kiera," she said as he entered, not looking up from her place on the bed. She could feel him as he entered, knowing instantly that it was Demetri. No one else had her keys. "You said you loved me and then called me Kiera," she explained, shaking her head as she buried her face into her pillow. She didn't want to look at him, but she didn't want him to leave either.


-------------------------------


"A little of both," she said with a grin. "She's Harmonia. Named after my sister. May I ask who your father is?"

 

[32sillylight32]

Demetri rolled but stop when he heard the name, how did she know of her? When did he say he was in love with Abby first of all? Everything was pretty confusing but he eventually connected everything. That dream, he remembered the feelings even if he wasn't all that conscious. He could still see the blond and blue eyes. He felt unsure anymore, this was all a misunderstanding but why did it bother her so much? He got closer to her and grabbed the Teddy Bear playing a bit with it. '' So..I was sleep talking again?'' he asked not really knowing what to say.

 

[Vaila]

"Yeah I guess," she whispered before rolling onto her back and staring up at the ceiling. "I'm not sure what pissed me off more. The fact that you said that you loved me while dreaming of someone else or the fact that no one has ever said those words to me." She threw an arm over her eyes and sighed, trying to calm her breathing so she didn't cry again. She hated to cry, especially in front of Demetri. He already thought that she was young and immature, no use in proving him right.

 

[firejay1]

Idris was startled when she heard the name Harmonia. When she'd found out Ares had spawned her, she had looked up all sorts of information about him, and recognized the name as one of her sisters. She hadn't even thought about the fact that this goddess was also the daughter of Aphrodite. "My sister, too." She said, so softly she wasn't sure any of them had heard it. Then again, she didn't completely consider Ares her father so maybe that didn't count either.


Kay grinned. There was no doubt now that they were demigods. "Hephaestus. He didn't exactly say we were meeting there, just that I was supposed to be there, but one can hope, right? You gals look like you know what's supposed to be happening there in four days. Care to clue me in?"


At that exact moment, another girl came running in, looking pale as a ghost and a little frightened.


"Fawn, what's wrong?" Idris asked, alarmed. It seemed she was asking that a lot lately. "You look awful. What happened?"

 

[Vaila]

"I'm Aphrodite's spawn. Guess that makes us step-siblings. As for what's happening in four days... it's the big battle. It's kind of a long story but if you've got time we can explain it," she said as her eyes drifted to Fawn, hoping everything was ok.

 

[firejay1]

"Got four days. Think you can wrap it up in that time?" Kay asked, jokingly. He looked over at the girl named Fawn, as the Asian one steered her to a chair inside. Wrapping his arm around Jin's long, skinny neck, he followed them inside, sitting down and waving his hand to indicate he was listening.


(Such a weird idea, having the same sister, but not being sisters of any sort.)

 

[Vaila]

((Haha! It is indeed ))

 

[32sillylight32]

"Yeah I guess," she whispered before rolling onto her back and staring up at the ceiling. "I'm not sure what pissed me off more. The fact that you said that you loved me while dreaming of someone else or the fact that no one has ever said those words to me." She threw an arm over her eyes and sighed, trying to calm her breathing so she didn't cry again. She hated to cry, especially in front of Demetri. He already thought that she was young and immature, no use in proving him right.


---------------------


Demetri was still playing with the teddy bear. He honestly felt bad that he said that in her circumstances. It usually wouldn't have been such an issue if she only considered him a friend with no romantic feels. He finally understood that she pretty much felt something for him. He wasn't in love with her and knew that, he wasn't able either to be in some sort of relationship. Anyway, what mattered at the moment was to brighten her mood up a bit. He didn't feel like questioning himself since his old wound were still there for now. He made the teddy bear walk on the side of the bed and towards her face. With a small smile, he started talking in the name of the stuffed animal, ''Hi! My name is Helios! and I loooooooove you a lot! Wanna give me a big hug?'' he said mimicking a very squeaky voice as he made the bear have his arm wide open .

 

[Vaila]

Abby snatched the stuffed toy and threw it at Demetri's head. "Jackass," she muttered with a small smile. "Sometimes you're a bigger child than I am. Here I am talking about serious things with my friend and you're Demetri-ing it up. And yes I did just use your name as verb," she said quickly as she stared at him with a pair of big blue eyes.


---------------------


"I think I can manage that of you can keep up," Freya teased, opening the door wider and gesturing for him to come inside. "But not out in the open like this."

 

[32sillylight32]

Demetri laughed but catched the teddy bear before it fell to the floor. '' But it's fun! And I'm not a child, you're just a big baby. I saw your puffy red eyes when i came in yesterday.'' he said pouting and looking at her big blue eyes with playful eyes. He slowly pulled himself up and layed down next to her. '' And something even more childish, I bet you can't stop laughing when people tickle you'' he said starting to tickle her on her waist and pretty much anywhere ticklish. He was doing all of this to cheer her up.

 

[JustAnAuthor]

Fawn remained pale, her pastel blue hair cascading in waves down her back, she tucked it behind her ear gently, panting slightly, but mostly due to the urgency of the words she had to speak.


"This... This place isn't... There was a.... By the... And I took.... Phone..."


She held her head in her hands, struggling to speak; stress creeping over her.

 

[Vaila]

Abby squealed and laughed involuntarily. "Stop it!" she cried out between laughs, before pushing his hands away and pinning them down on either side of his head. She pushed her leg up over him, straddling his stomach as she held his arms down. "You'll pay for that," she said with a evil grin. "Just you wait." She lent down further to try and appear more menacing, but she doubted that it helped much.

 

[firejay1]

Idris cast a glance at the other two and took Fawn deeper into the room, so they wouldn't distract Freya. "Fawn, just take a deep breath and calm down before you say anything." She sat the other girl down, even as she took the proffered phone and looked at the pictures showing there. There was the corpse of a man! Other pictures were of a boat and docks, obviously the setting in which the poor creature had died. "Where did you find this? And how long ago?" She asked, keeping her back straight, and attempting to remain as calm as possible. It wasn't time to panic, yet.

"Course not." He went inside. Sitting down on one of the chairs, he listened as she explained all about Kronos, the magic sword and the end of the world. "Huh. I see. So we're supposed to stop him. Remind me again why the gods aren't doing this, instead of us?"


((I think the correct description for that is "sexy" not "menacing", Vaila.))

 

[32sillylight32]

Demetri wasn't going to stop until she pushed his hands away. He didn't have time to react before she pinned both of his hands on each side of his head. He struggled a bit to try and take them away but the soreness of the last training just made it impossible. Pretty much breathing a bit harder, his bare chest pretty much blowing with every breath. He looked at her while she lent down sending her a challenging glare, ''Go ahead, make me pay.''

Eva walked through the halls in silence, nervous about what was to come. She let out a small sigh and ran her fingers through her hair that was now streaked with red. She played with the bottom of her dressed as she looked around, blocking out all noises that she heard.

Aurora slowly woke up from her small nap and laid her head against Will's shoulder. She wrapped an arm around him and sighed softly, trying to calm her nerves. She looked up at him and kissed him gently before slowly falling back asleep, thankful that it was quiet in her room. It was calm.

 

[Vaila]

"I spoke with my mom earlier. Zeus is cracking down hard on the rules. There is to be no outside immediate contact, no interfering with human lives. And since we're half human, we could as human in his eyes. My mother broke the rules by visiting me but she's never really stuck to them before...." Freya said with a shrug. "There are only a few ways you can talk to him now. There's the dating website but the conversations are monitored by Zeus and Hermes. There is direct summoning but there is no guarantee that they'll come. Or you can go to Olympus."

"Revenge is a dish best served cold," she said softly, moving off of him. Sliding onto the bed beside him, she curled up into a ball and sighed. "I'm sorry about earlier. I guess I just lost it and went a little crazy. It's not exactly the first time I've lost someone I was mildly interested in to another woman. Although you can see why," she said bitterly with a snort.

 

[32sillylight32]

Demetri expected something else and was a bit deceived to see that she was going to have her 'revenge' some other time. He looked at her curl up into a ball and listened to her a bit confused. ''Wait there, some other woman? I don't have anyone in my life for years now. That Keira chick was a while ago when I was your age. I broke up with her and I honestly can't stand the sight of her..'' he continued, '' I don't know what you thought but..Anyway, I can see that you misunderstood a lot of stuff.'' he said chuckling and turning to his side to face her.

 

[firejay1]

Kay snorted. "So as usual, we're left to do the dirty work for them." He leaned back comfortably. "Never seen my father before, but he was the one who told me to get my ass down here." He ran a hand through his hair distractedly. "That Asian chick and the girl named Fawn aren't the only ones here, are they? Who else?"

 

[Vaila]

"Doesn't matter," she whispered softly. "It's only a matter of time. And anyway, it doesn't really make much of a difference to how I acted now does it?" she asked rhetorically, turning to look at him. "I really am sorry."


-------------


"Six others. The rest are back at camp or scattered across the world," she said, drifting into thought about the DU and the resort.

 

[32sillylight32]

'' Oh please it's fine.'' Demetri said pulling himself closer to her wrapping his arms around her, '' I lost control and shouldn't have said half of what I did say. Will you forgive me someday?'' he said playfully resting his head the crown of her head. He honestly had no idea why he went for a hug..maybe because she seemed to need physical comfort.

 

[JustAnAuthor]

She sighed, taking her head out of her hands, looking up at Idris. "I found it at sunrise; the time most likely between 5am and 6, the cause of death... Seems like hyperthermia, but my suspicion is that it was meant to be like that... An accident perhaps, or possibly... Or possibly not."


She chewed her lip, continuing to study Idris's face.


She saw the hidden panic underneath the surface of her calm.

 

[firejay1]

Idris nodded curtly. She didn't think it was an accident anymore than Fawn did. A death from hypothermia, so soon after they landed? And from the look of his body he hadn't been floating around on the oceans for months or anything. It was more than likely he was a warning from Kronos, a little gasp of evil laughter, daring them to come. "Fawn, you should lie down and rest. After what you just saw, you deserve some." She stood and went back to where Freya was, asking her for the walkie-talkie and receiving it.


---


Kay was mulling that information over in his head. He'd never really considered the other children he was divinely related to, before. It sounded like there were a good number of them, but before he could say anything, the Asian girl came gliding quickly back out into the room and got a walkie-talkie from Freya. Her voice was sharp and snappy, though oddly enough still quiet. "Demetri, are you there?"

 

[JustAnAuthor]

Fawn slowly stood up, following Idris into the room, sitting down opposite from Freya; she studied the face of the stranger:


He was Hawaiian, possibly in his early 20's... He seems confident within himself judging from his posture, most likely a "mama's boy". Due to his background, he was most likely a surfer, increasing his body strength and core; matching his athletic appearance of muscle and body structure.


Fawn smiled slyly to herself, after having figured him out, she French braided her pastel blue hair, not saying a word. <p><a href="<fileStore.core_Attachment>/monthly_2014_08/ImageUploadedByTapatalk1407545764.692700.jpg.faac74d2815c970a35f9b26e2ad3e7d6.jpg" class="ipsAttachLink ipsAttachLink_image"><img data-fileid="26818" src="<fileStore.core_Attachment>/monthly_2014_08/ImageUploadedByTapatalk1407545764.692700.jpg.faac74d2815c970a35f9b26e2ad3e7d6.jpg" class="ipsImage ipsImage_thumbnailed" alt=""></a></p>
