Orb of the Protogenoi

Mortals

"AAAAAHHHHH!"

"Wh- Who's that?!"

"AAAAAHHHHH! AAAAHH!"

"Calm down! I'm coming for you!" He quickly went to find the boy who was clutching his face. "What's wrong?"

"MY FACE! MY BEAUTIFUL FACE! AND MY VOICE!? WHAT HAPPENED TO IT!?"

"H-hermes!?"

The messenger god is now a young teenage boy. His previous body was short, but now he's shorter than before and he looks like an Asian kid. He has short black hair and a white complexion. "Wh- You! A-A human! W-Where are the others?! FATHER! APOLLO!" he yelled.

"Hermes, calm down, it's me, Apollo."

"A-Apollo?! What happened to you? What happened to us?!"

Apollo is now different the last time Hermes has seen him. The god is still handsome but he is now a boy of fifteen who has a straight, white blond hair. He also looks thinner and a bit shorter. "I-I don't know."

"Is everything alright?" A tall boy came to them who has a shoulder-length, dark brown hair. He looks like one of those beach bums because of his tanned complexion and he has a circular tattoo on his right arm.

The three boys looked at one another for a minute before Hermes said something. "So~, nice weather this evening."

"Umm, who are you?" asked Apollo.

"I'm guessing you're Apollo and this little kid here is Hermes, right?" said the lad.

"Hey!" Hermes retorted.

"Well, now that's clear I'm Poseidon, and before we start discussing this problem, let's find the others first. By the way Apollo, could you give us some light?"

"Umm, yeah, sure." Apollo held out his hand but nothing was happening. He tried it again but failed. "What? Impossible!" He tried again and again but not even a speck of light can be seen. "I-I lost my p-powers…"

"What? That can't be!" exclaimed Poseidon. He rushed to the seashore and when the salty water hits his feet, he could not feel it. It was like a part of him disappeared. He tried to lift the water but nothing happened.

The two boys rushed to him to see what happened. "Uncle?" said Apollo.

"Nothing. I can't feel it. I can't feel anything."

Hermes said "Don't worry uncle, I lost my powers too. Look, I can't fly."

Apollo sighed. "That's because you're not wearing your sandals, Hermes."

"What?! My sandals! Where are they?!"

"I found it beside you. It must have slipped from your feet because it was too big. It's also damaged so you can't use it." said Apollo while handing the sandals to Hermes.

"M-My s-sandals!" cried Hermes. Even though it was dark, Hermes has managed to see his damaged sandals. Its wings were charred and one of it was torn off.

"Boys, we should find the others, having everyone will lessen our worries. Come on." said Poseidon. The three of them went to the others gods who were still recovering from the fall. They found one of them who was lying on the ground. "Hey, are you awake." asked Poseidon.
