Zack- Zeus
Luke- Hermes
Daniela - Demeter
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Autumn was in a meadow picking flowers near her home. She always did that while her mom was working. This time was different, she saw a man in the distance, coming closer and closer. As he got closer she could make out his features better. The man was tall, pale, he wore all black, he was muscular and had dark hair. He was very handsome to Autumn. Autumn was not sure who this man was. She had seen him before, in a dream. As he spoke she looked in his eyes. They were black; although they were black they were soft.
Dimitri: You are all alone
Autumn: (softly)Yes as are you. Why have you come here?
Dimitri: (looked at her for a while then finally spoke) Autumn, I have come here to see you. (concern in his voice) Are you afraid?
Autumn: No, not at all. What is your name?
Dimitri: Dimitri, if I may ask what is your favorite flower?
Autumn: (Autumn paused thinking of the odd question Dimitri had asked) Roses, they may have thorns on them but there’s always a price with something so beautiful, roses have thorns. The most horrible of things are beautiful; everything has a purpose even if some people consider it ugly.
(Dimitri smiled at Autumn. Then a man ran to Dimitri and grabbed him by the arm. He appeared out of nowhere.)
Luke: Daniela is coming you must leave.
(The man had curly red hair. Autumn had seen him before, he always brought her mom news.)
Dimitri: We will meet again. I promise. Thank you Luke
(Then Dimitri ran away. He was gone. The other man was now staring at Autumn.)
Luke: Are you going to mention this to your mom?
Autumn: Why should I?
(The man nodded and then left. Moments later Daniela appeared.)
Daniela: Child it is time to go home. You know better than to leave the house.
(Autumn nodded and left with her mother.)
