Planet X Pandora

Time's Almost Up

So, sunshine. You up?

Shut the hell up, Apollo.

That was how the morning started for Kash. She was tired, hungry, and confused and the voice in her head was definitely not helping.

Today's a special day, sunshine.

Enlighten me.

It's the Calling.

Kash's heart skipped a beat. It was the day she had been anticipating.

What?

Yah. You get to meet me in person. Yay.

What about the others?

They'll be there too, don't worry.

All of them?

Well, yeah. Everyone with a patron.

So you mean someone without a patron gets left behind.

Yah.

That's not fair.

Oh well. It's not up to me. Kronos decides when it's time. He just finished his meeting with his own candidate.

What do you mean? There are others?

Yes. What did you think? You'll meet them soon.

Okay..... So what do I do?

Just wait for further instructions.

What do you mean?

The voice was silent this time.

Wonderful. Just wonderful.

" Hey guys? " she called out.

" Yeah? " came the reply from Kyle.

" Um. So I wanted to ask you...... "

" About what? " asked Aaron.

" So, um. Have you been hearing.....things.....lately? "

" What sort of things? "

" Like, uh.... Never mind. "

" Are you okay? " asked Aaron.

" Yeah. Yeah I'm fine. "

I guess all we do is wait.

*****************************************

Ian didn't know what to expect.

Today's the day, child, came the voice.

Wonderful. Now can you please tell me what's going on, Poseidon?

Not yet. I'll tell you what to do when it's time.

I hate this.

*****************************************

The day went on very lazily for the group. All of them awaited a signal. A sign. Something to tell them what's going on and what to do.

Luke was pondering over his dream, and the figure that came to meet him. He didn't know what to believe. Why is this happening to me?

Kash remained silent still, waiting for the voice of Apollo to speak. She didn't know if the others would come. Or what was going on. She wasn't sure she wanted the Calling to take place. I hope this ends soon.

Aaron tried talking to the voice of Aries, but to find no reply. He was ready to give up, to believe that it was his imagination. He didn't know what to expect, he didn't even know if he trusted the voice. What's going on?
