Pandora's Box

A Message From The Gods

Pyrrha and Deucalion were meeting with guests when a man came up to the,

" Hello darlings, congrats on the wedding." The man exclaimed.

" Your majesty thank you so much for coming, it's an honor." Deucalion bowed while Pyrrha had no idea who he was.

" You look so much like your mother Pyrrha darling." The man began.

" I am sorry but..." Pyrrha started to ask, " Who are you?"

" Oh where are my manners, I am the eldest of the gods. I am Zeus." Zeus announced.

" Your a God?" Pyrrha asked.

" Yes I am indeed and you know what I created your mother. I met her at her wedding and blessed her with you and Pithos." Zeus explained.

"You... You gave her the box. She went crazy because of YOU." She shouted.

" I did no such thing. I told them not to open it." Zeus frowned, " And young lady might I suggest that you don't raise your voice with a God."

" But you ruined my childhood, you knew that she would eventually open it." Pyrrha sobbed.

" You're right, I did know that her curiosity would get the best of her and she would eventually open Pithos." Zeus admitted.

They both stared at each other in anger. Pyrrha was furious. This was the person who ruined her life, who ruined her mother's life was standing right infront of her acting like he did nothing. Zeus was exactly like Epimetheus, thinking too much of themselves. Zeus's answer didn't make her feel any better, it just made angrier. Zeus could also see the anger in Pyrrha's eyes so he thought he should say something.

" Ok, I want to make you a deal as an apology for what I did." Zeus began to Pyrrha's surprise, " But you can not tell anyone."

" Ok." Deucalion said.

Pyrrha had almost forgotten that he was there too.

" Prometheus is crazy and you should never listen to him." Zeus whispered.

Deucalion's blood started to boil. Zeus should have never talked about his father, his father has done nothing but help him.

" You should go." Deucalion told Zeus calmly.

" Ok but you don't want to make an enemy of me, both of you." Zeus's tone told them just how clear he was.

***
Pyrrha was shocked about what just happened, she had just met the man that made her mother go crazy.

"He planned it all and he blessed them with me so, if he planned it then he knew it would ruin my childhood." She thought, " And he didn't even care."

" Are you ok?" Deucalion asked Pyrrha.

"No." Pyrrha answered, " How can someone be so cruel?"

" I never knew he was like that, I see why his brothers and children don't like him." Deucalion tried to comfort Pyrrha but he could see it wasn't working.

They both stared at each other, he could see that she was heartbroken but he didn't know what to tell her anymore.

" I want to show you something." Deucalion began.

" Right now? You know we can't leave." Pyrrha answered.

" So? It our wedding, we can do whatever we want." He replied while smirking.

" Where are we going?" Pyrrha asked.

" You'll see." Deucalion took her hand and they left their own wedding.
