Lena POV

We walked up to a house in Australia, there was a dead Deviant outside. Kuran was filming the whole way.

"Do you think they will help?" I asked Sprite.

"Yeah I'm sure Thena would love to kill a Deviant." Sprite replied, I raised my eyebrows at her. She just nodded her head forward telling me to pay attention. As we walked I noticed there was a man outside.

" You're about to meet two of the greatest warriors the world has ever known. Thena, legendary, deadly, fashionable. And her trusty friend......a mighty powerhouse of strength, the fearsome Gilgamesh! Gilgamesh!" Kingo spoke to the camera. A man opened the door and waved off the camera.

"What took you so long, you look younger today Sprite." Gilgamesh said chukleing, Sprite glared at him.

"I have the same apron." Kuran said, making his presence noted.

"Who the hell are you, and who's the other short one?" Gilgamesh asked.

"She's with me." Sprite said, placing her arm around my shoulder, I smiled.

"I'm Karun. Kingo's valet." Kuran clarified.

"Oh, valet. Like Alfred in Batman." Gilgamesh checked.

"Gilgamesh. The Deviants are back." Ikaris said.

"No shit. I could have used some help." Gilgamesh said.

"We were attacked by a Deviant in London too." Sprite said bluntly I nudged her. She just looked at me over her glasses.

"Even Ikaris couldn't kill it." Sersi piped in.

"You couldn't?" Gilgamesh said laughing.

"I was distracted." Ikaris defended, looking to Sersi.

"Sure, man." He said laughing. "Hey, you guys wanna try my pie?"

"I'm sorry, Gil. Ajak's dead." Ikaris told the news to his fellow eternal.

"It's true, buddy. We lost her." Sprite added, pulling me tighter to her. Gilgamesh sat down and broke the pan he was holding. We looked over to a woman in a white dress who was drawing vigorously.

"Sersi. The attack triggered her. She's no fun to be around right now." he said, stopping us from going any closer. Sprite tried to stand in front of me but I moved so I was able to see instead of being behind Sprite.

"Hey, Thena. Look who's here. Give me your hand." Gilgamesh asked but Thena created a weapon and attempted to attack him. " Thena." he warned.

"Everyone in Centuri6 is going to die." she said, her eyes completely white.

"Give me your hand." Gilgamesh insested.

"It's too late. We can't save them." She said again.

"Thena." he stopped the sword once more.

"Thena," Sprite started, creating an illusion of their ship. "We came to Earth together on our ship. You're an Eternal. The greatest warrior of Olympia. The legendary protector of Athens. The goddess of war. Remember who you are." She finished off showing Thena fighting, I looked at her astonished.

"Remember." Gilgamesh added as the illusions finished up. Thena looked at everyone carefully, taking notice of me. I flashed my fiery eyes at her and she nodded and smirked.

"Thena." Ikaris said.

"Hi." Kingo and Sprite waved.

"Hello." She said still eyeing me.
