A New Order of Chaos

Growing Strong... On The Wrong Side 2x1

Eris felt a little unappreciated it.

And how else she should be feeling? Since her Mother left the Mansion of the Night next to Lamia, Eris was willing to prove herself to her Mother. She wasn't like Hemera, always looking for the balance. She wasn't like Hecate, who liked to swing between allies and friendships. And defenitely, she wasn't like The Fates, who loved to control everyone's life.

No, she was a true daughter of Nyx. She loved to mess with other entities, making confrontations, making them doubt and causing confusion. But, never with her Mother. She knows that defying her Mother was similar to a death sentence.

That's why, when her Mother was gathering allies to fight against the Olympians, Eris left the safety of the Mansion of the Night and went to explore the surface. It's been millenniums since the Lady of Discord set foot on earth and roamed it, freely and causing destructtion, just at the thought of it.

She saw by herself the results of leaving the world to be control and dominated by the Gods: mortals ruled the world, independent if the Gods existed or not. They were the judge, jury and executioner of their own race and that, to Eris, was a cancer. A disease. A plague that but be dealt with it immediately, before it infects another species.

She understood why the demigods were what they were. If a spawn of a god and a mortal could be manipulated by Kronos to fight the Gods, either they were stupid to believe that they had more power than they thought, or the demigods were thirsty of being in charge of things. Just as the mortals to their world, the demigods is a 'superior' generation that comes without the effects and problems of mortals.

Or, that is what Eris believes.

Eris strolled the crowed streets of NYC, causing trouble everywhere she went. If someone was looking over her, that someone would see a display of fights and arguments where she pass. Eris was feeling recharged with energy. She haven't felt that kind of power since, well... since the last time she walked the Earth.

Eris knew where she was going. She didn't need a map for that. She didn't need directions. Because places like this only can be sense and access by people with power. Well, she has the power! But not the recognition, which meant she couldn't just flash in whenever she pleased without anyone attacking her.

That was just plain frustrating.

"Good afternoon, sir" she put a sugarcoated voice in her lips, trying to pass like any other person. The man who she was talking to raised his eyes from the newspaper he was reading and raised an eyebrow at her "Would you be so kind to give me the key?"

"The key?" The man physically looked like he was around forty years old, with his 'Security' uniform. He looked either confused or he was playing dumb.

"Yes, sir... The key..." she repeated, crossing her legs to be even more dramatic. The man frowned and went back to reading the newspaper.

"Child, all the bathrooms are without key" Eris realized that the man wouldn't be fooled by any trick, so she did what she knew best: she started a fight. More especifically, she made two other people to start a fight. The minute the fight got physical, that forced the guard to leave his post, opportunity that she used to grab the key she was looking for, while the commotion was happening.

She walked into the elevator and closed it quickly before someone else wanted inside. She then, pulled out the key and inserted it in the slot, making her trip to the highest place on Earth.

Olympus.

The ride was a tortured itself. The elevator music was playing some kind of song with a really fast rhythm and sang by, who it sounded like, some men with feminine voices. It was a torture itself. Eris forced herself to remind the song, so she could give the suggestion to her Mother.
