Simply the quest :

Josie Hooper was tired.
Although a little less tired then normal, but still tired.
Ever since Virgo had crash landed into the cow shed, life has certainly been tiring.
She walks into the Kitchen to see Virgo sat at the table with Elliot and Hermes, eating a bowl of cereal and complaining about school.
Zeus trying to calm Athene and Aphrodite, who were fighting over the stove.
Josie looked back at Elliot.

He's not how he used to be, and she knew it. Since Elliot's twelfth birthday he'd been acting up. It started small, forgetting to put on a tie, homework, clubs after school. Josie had assumed it was some form of ADHD but eventually it got worse.
Leaving the microwave on with nothing in it, or with metal in it, unpredictable mood changes and more she couldn't count.

It was horrible.
But ever since the gods had arrived, they'd done everything they could to help her.
Josie's hand made its way up to the small locket around her neck. Over the past few weeks her and Virgo had managed to acquire the Earth stone, and Hephistus, who was usually in his forge, had made it so it could fit in the locket.
The locket - the locket had been given to her by her husband on their fifth anniversary ten years ago before he was imprisoned. Nothing special about it on the outside, nor on the inside, but (as cheesy as it was) it was special to her.

Josie grabbed a piece of toast out the toaster and sat down next to Hermes.
"I don't understand why I'm allways picked last in PE, I'm amazing at netball!" Virgo complained to Hermes.
Elliot laughs and Hermes rolls his eyes with a chuckle.

"Maybe consider your abilities babe." Hermes said.

"I have! I'm amazing at sports!" Virgo retorts. "You've just never seen me on the court."

"Uh huh, sure babe."

"Elliot will back me up," Virgo pouts turning to Elliot. "right Elliot?"

Elliot shrugs.
"Whatever you say."
Virgo turns back to Hermes.
"See."

"He's just saying that because he has nothing else to say dumbass." Hermes says

"I'm sure you're amazing, Virgo." Josie says.

"Thank you" Virgo says, rolling her eyes. "At least someone here agrees with me."

Athene puts a plate down and sits at the table, putting a cup of water infront of Elliot. Elliot stares at it for a moment before picking it up and taking a sip.
"So I've been doing some research on ways to prevent you from being arrested when getting the airstone." Athene begins.

"Oh yeah?" Josie says as she watches Elliot leave the table.

"A royal pardon." Athene says proudly.

"Smart ass was going on about it all last night."
Aphrodite says, sitting down where Elliot was sat before. "If you have a royal pardon, you can get away with murder, you just have to get it from-"

"The Queen!" Josie says, smiling.
It would be fun to see the Queen again. The last time she'd met the queen, Josie had watched Hypnos's ass be obliterated by the Queen. It was awesome.

"Josie, Virgo and Hermes, I suggest the three of you go. The Queen already knows you Josie, so it should be easy.

Josie nods as she watches Elliot walk back into  the living room, holding a book and reading the back of it, walking to the corner and leaning against the wall.

"Road trip!" Hermes puts his arm around Josies shoulders. "Let's do this! We get the royal pardon, grab the airstone, boom."
Josie smiles.
"You in Virgo?" She asks.
