(Pretty short early chapter, but I'm busy tomorrow and can't update. Sorry Popsicles.)

Hercules was at Phil's house, getting ready to head to Zeus' temple when Millenia came home, stomping past him. She had a huge rain cloud over head. Hercules didn't seem to notice that.

"Hey Millenia! Did you get the picture?" He asked. She pushed past him.

"Not now Meat Head! I need to go destroy something!" Phil panicked.

"No!" He ran after while Hercules left in confusion. 

"I wonder why she was all upset. Maybe she just had a bad picture or something." Then he flew to Zeus' temple and waited fifteen minutes before the the god finally appeared in his omniscient state of a statue.

"What do you need?" He asked Hercules rather harshly. Hercules held up his gift for him.

"I got this for you and mom." Zeus was very confused on what it was. "It's a scrap scroll. It's filled with all of your favourite memories. When you two met, your wedding day, when Millenia was born, last year's anniversary, I made that one really flashy." Hercules was very proud of himself, but Zeus was angry.

"Why!? So I wouldn't forget it!?" He snarled. Hercules looked like he was about to cry.

"Well, no I-" but Zeus cut him off.

"Oh, and look! There's Hera's birthday! Thought I'd forget that too didn't you?" Then he sat up. "I expected better from you." Then he turned back into a statue. Hercules walked out of the temple, feeling very upset and wondering what his father meant by he expected more out of Hercules.
