My Little Goddess (DISCONTINUED)

Chapter 9: Home of Hestia and the Demigods

              They were in Olympus still wearing their masquerade attire; they decided to keep on the mask. Athena, Apollo, Aphrodite, and Artemis led them through Mount Olympus. The city was bright and filled with ancient Greek and Roman buildings with carvings and made of marble. Floating lanterns floated around the sky of the city, gods and goddesses walking down the aisles and streets of Olympus. Soft music played by harps, lyres, and flutes surrounded the whole city of Olympus. They had torches beside each door of the buildings and temples.

               At the top of the mountain the biggest building rests, the building had Greek and Roman designs and carvings. The walls and pillars were carved with historical moments, events, and times related to the gods; like Athena gaining control over Athens, Dionysus with satyrs, and a lot more. They had beautiful carvings all around the palace. The gods invited them all inside the palace as they walk on the wide aisle on the way to the war council room, as they walk the hallways were filled with tapestries, weapon, paintings, and other divine objects.

              At the end of the aisle was a wide room with twelve human-size chairs with different designs and carvings as well. The chairs formed a semi-circle around a warm blazing hearth “Δώδεκα Ολύμπιοι” was written at the middle of the hearth on a golden imbedded medallion. The gods weren’t present yet until the door from the back opened and the demigods were greeted by two gods arguing about letting someone live or die.

              The first guy had black shaggy hair, tan skin that looked like he sunbathed in the beach earlier today. He had the same sea-green eyes as Lucas; he was wearing a Greek tunic and a golden brooch with a trident carved on the middle of it with the name ‘Poseidon’   pinned to his tunic. He was in his human form, the same as the other man. He was probably on his mid-thirties.

               The second guy was also wearing a Greek tunic and also a golden brooch with a lightning bolt carved on the middle of it with the name ‘Zeus’ pinned to his tunic. He had piercing electric-blue eyes, he’s eye color was like lightning itself. He had ash blonde hair with gray streaks; he was probably on his late-thirties. He had tan-skin and a well-shaved beard. He had the same divine complexion as the other guy. They all figured out that it was Poseidon and Zeus even before they looked at the brooches.

               Then Zeus sat down at the middle of all the chairs and Poseidon sat on his left, when everyone turned to Athena and the others. The gods were wearing Greek tunic and dresses and sat at their chairs, Athena was at Zeus’s right hand and the other took a seat, one by one, the other gods entered and sat on their chairs. The demigods stared at the gods in awe, they all were unique in their own way, and each god had different things to represent.

               When everyone was seated and the demigods all stood tall in front of the gods, Zeus looked over at Joshua who looked back at him and made a slight bow to his father. Zeus then set his eyes to Natasha “What do you want?” Zeus asked Natasha.

               Natasha looked at Zeus and stepped forth, everyone else bowed down to the gods “We want change.” Natasha said to Zeus confidently. Then she looked over at Hephaestus wearing a tunic. He was muscular and had slight burns and cuts he got from working at the forges. He had shaggy neck-length brownish-blonde hair and he had the same green eyes as Natasha. Eyes filled with so much confidence, pride, and warmth.

               Zeus slightly nodded at Natasha “Change is hard to do, I’m afraid you’ll have to work for the ‘change’ that you want.” Zeus responded to Natasha’s request.

               Poseidon then smiled warmly at the demigods and looked at Lucas with his bright sea-green eyes “Lift your head, Lucas.” Poseidon said gesturing him to stand. Lucas stood up and stepped right beside Natasha and grabbed her hand, Aphrodite giggled happily seeing them together holding hands. Poseidon looked at Aphrodite he rolled his eyes then looked back at Lucas “I believe you have something else to say?” Poseidon asked Lucas.
