A Quest Of Los Dioses-The Land Far Away (Leo Valdez)

Hespestus stared at Leo.

Leo stared back at his father confidently.

He lifted his chin up slightly to, just to show he meant what he said.

Hespestus repeated looking stumped "You want Calypso freed from her curse and you want to find her again?"

Leo said firmly "Thats sounds about right father"

Strange, Leo thought, a moment ago he'd been all over the place but as he started to ask his farther the favor a strange calmness and confidence overcame him. He could feel in his gut this was the right thing to do.

Hespestus said slowly "Son, I don't think that-"

Leo snapped "No! I promised her father! You can't say no...not you, please?"

Hespestus tried again "Leo its not that we don't want her free its just we-"

Leo asked angrily "Just you what? I won't stop intill I free her, you of all people know that"

Hespestus didn't say anything, his expression seemed to turn reluctant to impassive, no emotion on his face.

Leo pleaded "Calypso liked you father, she told me you were kind to her, you can't be planning to leave her there forever"

Hespestus looked at his son, looking deeply troubled.

Leo begged "Please?"

Hespestus then grimaced and told Leo grimly "If you get in trouble then its not my fault, Okay? Lets see if Zeus is in a good mood but I think the chances are slim"

Hespestus told Leo to "Hold on to me but close your eyes"

Leo did so, very quickly.

Leo thought "Olympus here I come"

The gods better lisern to what I have to say Leo thought determindly.

Or he was going to make them listen...what ever the cost.
