Blocking his punch, I attacked. With a sharp jab, Max flew across the terrain into the base of a tree. Rising up, he smiled, spitting out blood. "Good! That's a nice arm you got there. But," Charging at me, he jumped and landed a kick to my chest, falling back into the creek, I rummaged onward. "not good enough when facing the son of Zeus."

In a crackle of thunder, a bolt of lightning fell from the heavens as he arched it into his hand. "Have you heard about Perseus?" He teased. "The demigod son of Zeus, mightiest of them all, he was said to be the first in some stories. He even was the ancestor of Hercules."

"Perseus, Hercules, Theseus and Achilles. I've heard of them all it's called Disney movies." I replied. "Why don't you threw that little bolt right there, if I die, I'm gone. That's what you want no?!"

Laughing, Mac was tempted. "I'm not going to through it, because you and I are the same. We are powerful, in our own way. You're the darkness and I'm the light. Polar opposites." He said.

Confused, I gazed at him. In a swift through, the bolt moved. Pulling up my hands a large crystaline rock formed in front of the creek. It was a metal, not a crystal! Examining it, I smiled. "Arurum, the finest ore around, women love this." Focusing my heart in it, the metal morphed into a blade. It was a long calvary sword, about four feet long and half an inch thick. But aside from all that it was light.

Gazing in awe, Max wondered what I had done. "What? What is that?" He asked.
"A golden sword, Arurum." I smiled.
"No, not the sword, the symbol. You're a child of. . ."

Before he could finish the sentence, the earth churned and split. Out of it, came three skeletons. Each had on a soldier's rifle and hat. With a raise of my hand the soldiers knelt. Smiling, I gazed back at Max with confidence. "Hades?" I replied confused. "The god of the underworld, or the dead skeletons? Right?"

Agitated, Max nodded. "Seems like you are a child of the eldest god. Hades the first Olympian god to be birthed. Congratulations." He said a bit unnerved.

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

After the mass murder affairs was over, I had been placed to sit at a Plutonium marbled table, which only had death festivities and plates. The only good thing about this table was that the food was right behind me and that my drinks refilled themselves.

I was mellow, having Hades as a dad, wasn't normal but it could've been cool? I mean, I get awesome powers. This power thing was also a turn on, appearantly the Aphrodite children kept eyeing me in a good way. The girls all smiled and laughed in a good natured way, while the guy's would wave and pat me on the back or shoulders.

After dinner, I ended up being hulled away by, Thalia. Her manners were now on check, and she seemed nicer. Heck even prettier, almost like she had a makeover in the last hour.

"So, what's up?" I asked.
Thalia didn't say anything, almost like she was nervous. "You're powerful. A girl like me, likes power. I also like architecture." She laughed.

"That's corny." I laughed. "Hey, so you're mom is a goddess, what does you're dad do for a living?" I asked. Thalia, usher along holding a gaze for a while, before spilling the beans.

"He's a scientist, thermologist to be specific. He studies weather currents and patterns. Storms are his favorite thing. That and volcanoes, he accidently found Hephaestus once when he was studying a volcanoe in Hawaii."

"Did he know about him?" I asked enthusiasticly.
"No, but for some reason he took me and I knew. Hephaestus shushed me to make sure I wouldn't tell him."

"Have you met Hades?" He asked.
"No, but I've heard he's gone nicer over the millenia."
"Good to know." I smiled.

"What about you're mom?" She asked.
"I never met her, she died when I was a baby, appearantly I was put in an orphanage and eventually was allowed to goto school."

Thalia didn't say anything, she just listened, which made me feel better than someone saying, that they were sorry. It never mattered, all that mattered was that they listened.

After our walk throughout the forest, and the camp, we ended up taking the long route back to the cabin. I had the cabin furthest to the left, while she had hers in the center. Saying our goodbyes, we headed off to bed.

Notes

Calming down, thanks for the reading. Appreciate it!
Quick note, Thalia was supposed to be named Jasmine, it's just I messed up on my other story and had to switch the names, but their personality is the same so it's ok.
