The spark in all of us.

#That Power

Beyond the white, fluffy clouds came a place where Greek gods ruled. The enormous palace or Mount Olympus was their grand home. Polished in marble and extravagant design, Mount Olympus stood tall in the spacious field.

Further off the image, flying through the halls came Jake. His golden hair flew and his smile was grand. His blue eyes shone with speed. He loved to split through the fresh wind. The sun shone brightly and its rays shone through the enormous glass windows beautifully. Jake loved the speed; the satisfying  adrenaline to keep flying forever. He didn't need those mythical feathery shoes to fly; he rushed through the air on his own. He finally landed perfectly outside of a huge wooden door. Jake brushed his hair back with his hand and let out a short sigh. He pushed the door open a little, but as he had enough space to pop his head in, a loud bang shocked him in place.

Jake raised an eyebrow and peeked through the small space. His eyes met a long table surrounded by supreme gods like Aphrodite, the god of love and beauty, with her long golden hair and breathless beauty. Every man wanted her, for she was truly gorgeous. She had a perfect tipped nose and shining blue eyes. Her body curved nicely against her red gown. Jake scanned the crowd and his gaze met Poseidon, the god of the sea, his clenched fist placed onto the table. His eyes were the perfect color identical to the water of the sea and was as though you were looking right at the sea itself. He had a dark expression and he showed his white teeth grit in anger. His flashing armor tighten his big muscles. In front of him stood Zeus, the mighty god and ruler of the sky. His dark eyes were fixed right onto Poseidon. Zeus didn't have a curly white bread yet he had none. He was a very fit man and quite handsome as well. His dark brown hair was slicked back. Zeus had his arms crossed against his big chest.

Jake was confused by all the ruckus.

Maybe they'are having a tough meeting...but what about? Jake wondered.

Soon Poseidon yelled,

" No! You can't do this Zeus! I won't let you, It's too dangerous!"

" Poseidon! You know very know what we agreed to! Don't you?!" Zeus boomed back, smacking both of his hands onto the table. Poseidon suddenly flinched, but certainly didn't show his fear. His expression showed like he had remembered something quite important. He hung his head slightly.

"But-"

" The task is quite hard and yet i wont say it's easy. They have grown to the according age and are to complete the task. Plus, you know that devil woman has to be stopped once again and we the gods are too busy for minor and childish problems,"

Zeus tried to reason.

Poseidon clenched his fists, clearly reasoning with Zeus. He looked up at Zeus and said, "when—exactly?"

"That is to be decided. Have faith my brother, they will return safely and discover amazing things such as in themselves and others."

Poseidon nodded. Zeus gave a small smile. They continued their conversation, but Jake chose to not listen. He closed the door silently and pushed his back against the door, his mind spinning with serious questions.

 Were they talking about us? What task?

He needed to warn the others. Soon, Jake flew as quickly as he could to tell the others through the grand halls.

The clear water rushed down the beautiful small river along Mount Olympus; its music brought peace and relaxed those who chose to listen. A few angel fish swam in the music's beat and all around the small river. Tulips and dandelions bloomed full of life around the small lake.
It was a peaceful spot and Aqua enjoyed its beautiful view. She twined her fingers with the long grass while she semi-sat beside the river. Her blond hair shimmered against the sunlight and her emerald gown blew slightly with the breeze. She positioned herself to where her legs were stretched  out and she held her upper body up from the ground with one hand.
She loved the view, the music of nature and this peaceful silence. Mount Olympus was rather loud sometimes and she desired some alone time to herself.  Her eyes soon tickled as she caught an idea.
She stood up, smoothing out her gown and focused on the clear water.
She blew out some air.
Aqua set her mind blank as she closed her eyes. A spot in the water soon began to shake slightly then bubble up.
Aqua raised her hands in the air and she quickly opened her beautiful blue,ocean like, eyes. The water thrusted up in the air at her command. The long trail of water gleamed in the light.
It was a true beauty and Aquas heart pounded with excitement.
She waved her hands in a circle and the water followed her lead as soon as she had a trail of spinning water, Aqua clapped her hands together and the water bursted into small rain. Aqua spinned at her play and laughed.
Aqua gazed up and for a few seconds saw a small rainbow. This brought a smile to her face. She loved the sensation of controlling water and its beauty within it.
She was a little bit wet, but she made it trickle away back into the river by itself with her amazing power. As soon as she was going to head home, Jake chuckled. This startled Aqua alittle and she narrowed her eyes when she saw Jake walking towards her with a smirk.
"You look funny doing..that," he commented as he pointed randomly in the air.
Aqua clenched her jaw slightly. She loved what she did and no one will make her feel insecure about it.
"I would like to see you try. It's actually harder than it looks...oh wait. You don't have a water power," she snapped quickly.
Jakes smirk faded alittle.
He wasn't here to prove her wrong again or fight with her. He had important news; more like urgent. He sighed and then said, "I'm not here to discuss with you, I have important news I have to tell you guys. Now, come along and help me find the rest."
Aqua hesitated for a little , then groaned a little loud.
Jake rolled his eyes and flew in the air.
"Do you know where Maria is perhaps?" He asked.
"She is by the hills I suppose," Aqua responded.
They quickly went after Maria and sure enough they found her in the green hills afar Mount Olympus.
Maria was on top a hill and she too was holding her hands in the air. She faced them, but she was focused on some thing else. Her eyes were almost black; A dark brown and her straight black hair swinged in the rough wind.
Suddenly, big dark clouds covered the sky and shadowed above Maria.
Maria smiled a little. The clouds began to sing thundering sounds and when Maria thrusted her hands at Jake and Aqua , a blazing, hot blue lighting bolt hit beside where they stood.
Jake and Aqua screamed in horror and Maria started to chuckle and then laugh loudly. Jake and Aqua pouted in anger and narrowed their eyes at her.
The clouds faded away and Maria headed down towards Jake and Aqua. They were dead silent.
"Ha. You should've seen your faces!" Maria exclaimed.
  Jake rolled his eyes once more and told Maria what he had told Aqua first.
Maria listened and became serious at this point. She nodded and followed along.
The sun was close to setting; only a few hours before the dark rushed in.
They found Josephine inside their grand palace home while she practiced on her magic. Josephine was concetraded on a glass which was empty. Josephine brushed back her red bouncy hair out of her way and smiled wide. Her green eyes tinkled and soon the glass began to fill up with red wine. She clapped happily when she finished and quickly took a sip of wine.
Josephine smacked her lips at the tasty drink and looked over the gang.
"Oh, wow. You would," Aqua commented.
Josephine smirked and while she raised an eyebrow,  she held her glass of wine in the air.
Jake took all of the girls to his chamber and made sure no one was around to hear their urgent conversation. He closed it shut and locked it.
He faced the girls and they were all around touching his stuff.
"Wow. Wow! Stop that! Ugh I have to tell you something," Jake urged them over.
They stopped their cool survey of Jakes stuff and bounced on his bed and sat down. Maria smoothed out her dark purple dress, Aqua cuddled with a pillow nearby and Josephine combed her red bouncy hair with her fingers.
Jake sighed and crossed her arms across his chest as he stood in front of them. His serious complexion gave off a small chill within the girls.
He would begin to speak, but was lost at his words. His mind spinned and he tried to capture the right words. Jake placed his hand onto his head and groaned. Sure, he flew with speed and had great power with speed and strength,  but sometimes speed took a disadvantage. His mind raced and raced and he could not say a word. The girls grew impatient.
"So?" Maria asked.
Jake looked at them and his eyes were slightly crossed. He shook his head, his blonde military style hair swanging along. Jake frowned and then said,
"I FORGOT."
