Put your story text heGreek goddess?!? You have to be kidding me!!!
I know it was a long time since update but, here it is!!
Tears rolled down my cheeks and more stained the letter leaving wet gray spots on the crisp white paper.I remembered something in the back of my mind beyond the pain and confusion. The little girl. I set the letter on the floor and thought of the lake with every fiber of my being.
I suddenly heard voices of the other gods and I opened my eyes. It was like a crime scene. There were people everywhere. I heard the faint sound of the little girls sobs. I followed that. I walked passed gods and goddesses they all stared but, avoided my eyes.
I found the girl next to a large rock her long blonde curls quivering with her every shake. I felt a sudden wave of protectiveness. When nobody was looking I picked up the girl and ran with her behind the rock. She looked up at me and I thought I almost saw relief in her small sea blue eyes.
I knew I didn't have long until the other gods would notice she was gone in fact now I heard whispers of it. I thought of the one place I thought they couldn't think of. April's grave. We arrived and I was instantly sad. The purple rose I had laid on her grave before all of this happened was withered and looked as it were dying right along with my heart.
I almost screamed as pain ripped through me reminding me that April wasn't coming back. I tried to focus on the fragile girl in my arms. I sat next the grave stone not wanting to sit on April herself. I looked at the little girl closely.
She was truly beautiful. Her blonde hair shone in the moon light and her pale skin looked white as paper. She was cradled in my arms like a baby. I set her softly on my lap. "What's your name?" I asked in the most kind voice I could. "April." I think my heart skipped a beat. Could it be that this tiny thing was named the one name that could hurt me the most. I almost screamed at the effort it took to say her name quietly. "April, Do you remember everything that happened today?" "Well I-"
She was cut off suddenly by lighting strikes and rain suddenly fell. Zeus and Poseidon were looking for us. I snatched April and ran toward a coloseum. The door opened easily enough for us both to slip in and shut the door. The smell of dead bodies made April gag and sent chills up my spine. I ignored it.
Through a small crack in the door you could see the night get brighter. I tried to keep quiet. I scooped April in my arms and tried to calm her cries. It worked she snuggled into my arms and quieted. I smiled at that. Maybe I was something to her. A substitute mother?
Some how it grew even lighter outside and I could see Zeus stomping through the grave yard. He almost stepped on April which made me want to kill him. But, the April in my arms needed me more. He could sense me here. So if I get closer to the coffins in the walls would it hide me with a foul scent?
I didn't know but I hoped it would. I crept back toward the scent. It made me want to gag. I held my breath as long as I could and covered Aprils face with my dress. She didn't stir sleeping like a baby in my arms. I closed my eyes and hoped I had the will to be quiet long enough hoping the smell would cover me and April. I hoped for a lot of things.
Ok guys I know it was a long wait and this is a short chapter but, More is coming! Tell me what you think!re...
