P.O.V - Elene
" I... can't.... take it.... any longer." Ethene panted, while literally crawling on the steps. I just rolled my eyes.
" We've only been up like, what, 20 steps?" I stated.
During these 20 steps, Ethene gave me some brief information on my mother, Aphrodite. She said that she was whorish and slept with many other gods. I wasn't offended, since I begged her to tell me some information, saying it would offend me, so I know she didn't mean to make it seem like my mother was a slut... yup.
She was shallow sometimes, and I hated it. She sometimes cared for the beautiful and handsome... kinda like Draco Malfoy loving pure-bloods.
What if my mother didn't think Ethene as beautiful? Will she curse her? Well, what am I talking about? Ethene is beautiful, even if her main trait is wisdom...
On the upside, Aphrodite was very loving and and very compassionate, hencing her being the Goddess of Love. I got that from her. (Atleast, thats what Ethene thought.)
There is another thing, that I KNOW I got from her, other than looks and beauty. Aphrodite can hold a grudge. And that I mean, really hold a grudge. Just. Like. Me.
As we both walked up the never ending stairs, I hummed the lyrics to I Like It Like That by Hot Chelle Rae. Suddenly, Ethene hummed along. Ethene got back up on her legs and walked side by side with me. We looked at each other knowingly, and we both bolted out the lyrics to the song.
" I like it like that, HEY!" She sang.
" Windows down, chilling with the radio on," I followed.
" I like it like that, Damn! Suns so hot,"
" Make the girls take it all off, I like it like that,"
" Yea! One more time, I can never get enough,"
" Oh, everybody, sing it right back, I like it like that!" We ended in unison. Suddenly, the ground shook, like it was laughing at us.
" The ground probably thinks we are tone deaf..." I mumbled.
" The ground? AYY! WE SOUND FABULOUS! SO DON'T TALK! Like you can sing better than us..." She trailed off. I just shrugged it off and kept on walking. " Aghh, what step are we on now!" Ethene whined.
" Probably in the 100's..." I replied, getting annoyed.
" Whaa?" Ethene groaned.
" Just keep walking!" I snapped. She rolled her eyes and continued walking... if you can call it that.
Suddenly, something different came into view, instead of the marble stairs, we saw an amazing, tall, breath-taking, golden gate. Like the gates to heaven.
I scrunched my eyebrows in confusion, why would this be here? And what about Mount Olympus? Me? Daughter to Aphrodite and Hephaestus? Her? Daughter to Athena? Is she really sure? It doesn't make any sense! But, I am extraordinarily beautiful. And Ethene is, well, wise, if you call her that...
The golden gate was slowly starting to unlock, and unleash the beautiful city behind it -- Mount Olympus.
We both picked up our pace, and eagerly tried to reach the gates. As we stepped onto the kingdom, I scanned the area. On the right, it had an orchard of trees with golden apples, like the ones back at home. Each engraved with a name, probably a god or goddes --
Wait, home! How will we be able to come back?
I put the thought to the side as I scanned the left of the area, all these mansions and homes came to view. It seemed to be endless, and a little pink cottage came to sight.
