Chapter 20

"Can I help you?" I let go of Mr K and walked towards the one leading the group.

"We are a coven of witches that wish to help you with the food chains around the world."

"R-really? I thought I'd be doing it all on my own." I stepped back a little surprised.

"We wish to help normalize this world so we can go back to our families. Some of us had human families that you took us away from." She glared at me.

"I already explained, if there is anyone who wishes to become mortal and re-join earth you'd just have to make a plea."

"We do not desire to give up our magic. We simply wish to return to earth quickly."

"I can also bring humans here. Everyone has a protection spell placed all over the world so humans are safe here, they just may not react well knowing that vampires and wolves and all mythological creatures really do exsist. It would be up to you personally to control their reactions if you wish to bring people here."

"Shouldn't I be apart of this topic?" Helios walked up next to me making the witches kneel down in front of him.

"Uhm.. I'm a goddess too, that felt like pure disrespect." I whispered to myself.

"I apologize. We mean no disrespect. We are servants of the sun and Helios is the god of the sun so we owe him everything." 

"Oh, are you the Hellions?" Helios smiled and lightly blushed.

"We are sir. We are your humble servants."

"Humble my ass. Helios, they're all yours. Have fun." I tried to step back before he grabbed my arm. "You know the next person who grabs my arm is going to get sucker punched." I sighed.

"They are here to help with the restaurant so you need to be the one to work with them. I've heard of them but I haven't been the one to help them when they need it, you have. Don't you remember?" He thought to me.

"Wait what?" I scanned my memories but any time I had on Olympus or any god status place was nothing but fog.

"Never mind. You can't remember anything in this state. Regardless, you need to be the one to work with them. If they want to bring humans here though, they need to speak to both of us. I think it's only fair."

"You have a point. Deal." I looked to the witches and sighed a little less irritated. "So, how can I help you fine witches?"

"For those of us who wish to bring our human families, where do we go, what do we say?" One of the witches in the back spoke up. She was young about my age.

"You can come up to the front and state your concerns. Write down on a sheet of paper who you wish for us to bring. We'll only be able to bring family members, if you wish to bring friends it will require serious attention since the protection spell can only protect so many. We have room for about a billion before we risk it not working. So please be considerate." Helios said.

"We don't have a protection limit." I thought to him.

"Do you want to bring all humans here? Think smarter, not harder." He shook his head.

"And for those of you who wish to help with the restaurants please follow me. Helios, you can handle the families right? Just call me when you need me." I winked at him. He nodded his head and I began walking to the back side of the building in front of my dads home. About half of the crowd of witches followed me while the other half remained to speak to Helios.

"First, I want to thank you for participating and being so accepting. I understand this is a real inconvenience but you have no idea how much it means to me that you're all willing to help. I'm sure Helios is happy your all helping too."
