Chapter 18
Elaura paced the cave she and Eros shared the home he carved out the mountain for them specifically. She picked up the phone. Then dropped or remembering Aires Jr. did not remember any of it. Damn she4 cursed. Elaura sat on the edge of her bed worried and afraid that Eros would find out she needed help but who could help?
Knock Knock. Come in! Hey girl, it's me, Aaron. How do I get to Ospearus. The Isle Of Ospearus?! Where else? Keep ya voice down Aaron. Why would you go see Medussa? I did something really bad and I need the baddest Oracle ever to give me guidance. Haha why would the Oracle of the God's bow down and speak to a commoner like us?
Us? I'm going alone Aaron. The hell you are Elaura we are talking about Medussa! Medussa can't kill women, remember? Oh yeah, I forgot. Come on if you're coming Aaron I can't lose Eros..not again.
But the blood triangle Elaura. That's what I need to ask her about hurry we need to leave before the ferryman undocks you got drackma's? Ulysses gave 150 last year when he took the trip to the sandbars with Cupid.
Strosphere gave me 50 when he came back from Opsesrus he said that there are dead soldiers everywhere and island is paved with Drackma's so old they are dusty and dirty. You better not touch a one Aaron. Stratus is God's blood, so you ain't him. She nodded yes. Okay, hurry, we gotta make the ferry.
Elaura and Aaron arrived at rhe rivers edge there were others from the Allegheny going other places. The ferryman held up fingers to signify the number of gold drackmas it would cost to cross.
Elaura walked to the large ship Opsearus for two. He stared saying nothing..doing nothing. Ferryman Ospearus for two. He turned his back to get on the boat.
Please! I come because of my love with Lord Eros! The ferryman stopped. Holding up ten fingers. Ten?! He went to keep walking. Okay! Okay! They gave him ten coins. That's all Elaura. I thought you had 100 coins.
I didn't bring them all Elaura. We will figure it out Aaron. Everyone was dropped off except them. The ferryman kept on for six more hours. The ferryman banged the boats oars against the sides. Elaura and Aaron looked up to the most beautiful island they'd ever seen.
This is it ferryman? He nodded yes. It's beautiful a tropical paradise. Thr ferryman docked the boat they stepped off he pushed off back into the hot spring waters he rode over to get them there.
How do we find Medusa Elaura? She looked down we follow the bodies Aaron looked down to torn apart skeletons and old rotting corpses. They aren't stone Elaura. No...because the three headed hydras got to them first. How do you know? Such are our pillow talk stories.
Oh my Osirus. Yeah call him we need his Aaron. The two women began walking up through the thick of the green plush woods toward the catacombs of Medussa.
Medussa's Cave...
Hermes. Hermes. Hermes! Medussa whispered excitedly shaking the God of mischief. What woman? Meduaaa sat up in human form someone is here Hermes on the island. He inhaled then exhaled ain't nobody here woman wouldn't I hear them first? You aren't in rattle snake foorm so how can you hear baby? Lay down.
Hermes I don't need to hear I know this island every inch and when those nasty bats start low squeaking someone is here and not a God Thoth told me that when he left they nasty asses here.
Those nasty bats spin bat hair that is worth $8000 in China per ounce. Thank you baby okay now go see what's going on. Medussa whistled Lucy and Ricky woke jumping on the bed. Not on the bed Medussa. They stay until you tell me who is there. Your sperm is stopping me from turning into a rattle to protect myself.
You wanted a break from the snakes now you have it. Sorry Hermes. I know you're scared but you are with the God of tricks they will never make it out alive. She smiled rest baby I got this I'm here with you for six whole months I leave for two then return. I'll never leave again I know you need me my love and I'm sorry for ever leaving in the first place.
Oh Hermes she hugged him he wiped her eyes putting on his Converse sneakers with wings. He grabbed his gold leaf crown. He wore sweatpants no shirt he was a tall dark chocolate muscular fine as fuck God.
His eyes swirled ocean's of blue it was said his father asked posiden for them to place in the skull of his son Hermes. He pulled them from a white whirling whirlpool of the carribean sea those beauties stared back at her with sincerity.
Hermes walked out past tbe carnage the love of his life inflicted upon those who sought her head. He laughed seeing all the gods who taught her battle by the type of death they suffered. Defiantly Aires he said seeing an impaled man. He ran at light speed toward the cliff jumping off.
The wings on the back of his sneakers flapping a gift from the sky God Horus when he was a jealous child of Cupid and Eros who had wings and he did not.
He looked around the island, and he heard the rustle and crack of branches and leaves. He saw the hydras waiting and salivating at the top of the mountain. He flew to the top sitting on a rock Venus put there for her to get air and see the beauty of the island right after fighting Hera one on one because she refused to removed the binds she placed around her Medussa's heart and Hermes' heart.
Hermes cried thinking of Venus the Goddess of Love and how she died so tragically. Elaira and Aaron made their way out the shrubbery thirsty.
Why are you here?! Aaron fell to the ground Elaura stood staring while Aaron pulled her arm down to join her. Who are you?
How dare you speak as if you are on my level you are in the presence of the God Hremes kneel before you loose your life for your insolence.
Elaura fell to her knees. Don't kill me my lord! I beg you. I am a human married and bound to Lord Eros.
