War of the Gods

Unexpected Visitor

Morning arose, Guillermo and Star woke up and made breakfast. "Hey, baby, what time is it?" Guillermo asked. "It's 8:40," Star answered. "Greg's usually up by now," Guillermo went to check on him, Star snickered. Guillermo opened Greg's door, and found him sleeping with Aries on his shoulder. "Would I be a real dick if I were to punch him?" Guillermo asked himself. "Yes, you would," Greg groggily said. "Morning, sleepyhead," Guillermo said. "Morning, can you help me out?" Greg asked. Guillermo grabbed Aries, Greg got up and took Aries from him. "I got like four hours of sleep last night," Greg groaned. "Baby?" Star said. "No, the imaginary Emma Watson in my bedroom, of course the baby," Greg said, sarcastically. "Alright, alright, calm down," Star said. All of a sudden, someone came knocking on the door. "It's early, who's got visitors?" Greg asked. Guillermo answered the door. "Can I help you?" He asked. "Guillermo Madriz?" The person said. "Yes," Guillermo said. "May I come in?" She asked. "I need to talk to you and Greg." She came in, and saw Greg. "Both of you, come with me," she said. Greg groaned, and went with them. They went into Greg's room, and sat down. "So, who's this?" Greg asked. "My name is Cali, and," she revealed the back of her hand, a howling wolf. "I'm marked as well." They gasped. "Then, you must be one of the marked people they mentioned," Greg said. "Who mentioned?" She asked. "Nobody," Guillermo said. "So, why are you here?" Cali looked over at the crib. "Is that your daughter?" She asked Greg. "Yes?" Greg said. Cali got up and looked at her. "What are you doing?" Greg asked. "I..." Cali gasped rapidly. Greg and Guillermo stood in shock, "What do we do?" Guillermo asked. "I don't know," Greg said. Cali stopped gasping, and she stood up and looked at Aries. "I must destroy!" She said, as she charged a lightning ball. "NO!!" Greg screamed, as he tackled Cali to the ground. "Guillermo, get Aries out of here!!" Greg said, then got punched. Guillermo grabbed Aries and dashed out of the room, "Star, we gotta go," Guillermo said. "Why?" Star asked. "Bad visitor, get loaded in the car, take Aries," Guillermo handed Aries to Star, they got in the car.
Greg punched Cali, Cali threw him out the door. "Damn it," Greg said. He charged lightning in his right hand and dashed at Cali. "Lightning Blade!!" Greg shouted, and thrust his hand into Cali's heart. "It wasn't gonna be personal, but, you threatened my daughter," Greg said. He took his hand out, and Cali dropped to the floor. He looked at Cali's hand, and the mark disappeared. "Weird," Greg said. "Greg," Guillermo said. "Yeah?" Greg said. "I thought you were left-handed," Guillermo said. "I'm ambidextrous, so, it didn't matter what hand I used," Greg said. "Guillermo, her mark disappeared after she died," Greg said. "Isn't that normal?" Guillermo asked. "Remember, a god's mark will disappear after their power is diminished, lightnings power isn't diminished," Greg said. "Huh, weird," Guillermo said. "Anyway, let's get going," Greg said. "Don't you need the crib?" Guillermo asked. "I've got a portable one in the car," Greg answered. They walk out and get in the car. "Do you think the rest of these people will react the same way?" Guillermo asked. "It's tough to say, but, I don't know," Greg said. They drove away from the house.
