Heroes Of Havalore

Ch.19 James and Company apologizes for the filler chapters

It has been a week since the trio of demigods returned. Now they face their most challenging predicament yet.

James, Gabriel, Caleb, Aria, Veyra, Jessica, Thalia, Miria, and Tybalt are all sitting at the dining table eating dinner in pure silence. No one wants to say anything due to the obvious tension going on in the room. "So, kids how was your respective weeks?" Tybalt asks trying to break the ice which at this current moment is as hard as titanium.

"Well, Sir Tybalt I enjoyed spending the week with my new boyfriend," Veyra says looking Aria dead in her eyes

Aria smiles only to hide her anger then she says, "My week is going great! I am making sure the city isn't being overrun by man-stealing sluts!"

Then James says, "So, tell me Aria how did you fit that into your busy schedule of sleeping with other guys."

Aria rolls her eyes as she says, "You make it seem like it was plural."

"I don't know, is it?" James responds with sarcasm reigning supreme in his speech pattern

Miria interrupts saying, "Yes, we all get it. There is this huge love triangle going on right now but! It is now getting a little too dramatic for everyone else's taste so please refrain from all of these offensive remarks if you wouldn't mind."

Caleb snickers as he says, "Wow, Miria that sounds more like a threat the than a question."

"Are you going to do something about it?" Miria growls.

Caleb's eyes burst with blue lightning as he says, "Should I?"

Tybalt sighs in sadness as he gets up from the table and leaves the dining room. "Guys!" Gabriel interrupts the group's bickering. "While I was in Krision I found a lead. On the coast of Yuton, there is a floating castle where a Krision sleeper spy saw what could be an angel. So guys what do you think about it should we take a peek?"

"Isn't Havalore borderline at war with Yuton? We would be arrested on sight." Aria says in a pessimistic tone.

Everyone begins to talk amongst themselves until James speaks up, "I am going to Yuton in a couple of days anyways as a diplomat of peace so I might be able to get us in the country. But only by boat."

"A boat? Really it is like a two-week boat ride there." Gabriel sighs

"A two-week boat ride or incarceration for the rest of your life. Pick your poison, Gabriel." Caleb states.

"Don't be such a downer, Caleb," Thalia says nudging his shoulder. "I guess I could go with guys too on guard duty."

Miria's face shows indifference as she says, "Please don't."

"You know what I am pretty sure I can move myself on escort duty for Caleb." Thalia states. Miria shrugs in disappointment as she gets up from the table.

James finishes the last of the steak on his plate then says, "Guys, start packing tonight because we will be there for at least month." Then he gets up from the table with Veyra who blew a farewell kiss to Aria causes her to turn red.

"I hate that bitch," Aria growls as she sticks her fork into her steak causing the juices to drizzle out of it.

"You can't get mad when it was you who moved on. James kept up his end of the bargain while you were down here screwing gods know who. You're acting pretty hypocritical." Gabriel says while leaning his head on his hand playing with his last piece steak.

Aria gets up from the table and storms off. "Shut up!" She yells as walks away with a middle finger flying high in the air.

"Jeez, someone doesn't take the truth well," Jessica says in a slightly annoyed tone.

James and Veyra are in his room packing there individual clothing then Veyra says, "You know, Aria is hurting. You should talk to her before she does something stupid."

James finishes folding a pair of pants as he says, "If she cared so much, she wouldn't have been sleeping around."

Veyra puts her hands on hips as she says, "She didn't sleep around she was mourning the fact that you were most likely dead so when it came to decision making she wasn't in right mind."

"And why should I believe you?" James asks with slight sarcasm looking at Veyra who stares a dagger at him causing James to say "Oh yeah, I almost forgot you're the goddess of love and desire so that would fall under your profession. But on the other hand, why do you care?"

"Because if she harms herself because of you, the guilt would crush you and I can't have such a magnificent creature like you going getting his psyche damaged." Veyra chides James

James smirks as he says, "Wow, Veyra you really know how to make a man feel objectified."

"Technically you're not a man you're god and angel hybrid." Veyra corrects James. James sighs as throws a green bra to Veyra she looks at James as if he crazy then says, "This isn't mine. It's Aria's!"

Two days later

James, Gabriel, Caleb, Aria, Veyra, Jessica, Thalia, Miria, board James's Yacht. "James if you die you should leave this in my name just in case you die," Gabriel says jokingly.

"You wouldn't be planning to kill me on this little voyage, Gabriel?" James asks

"Depends what you get me for Havalore day," Gabriel responds

Then Jessica slaps Gabriel upside his head as she says, "Don't be an asshole."

Everyone gets on the Yacht then they begin to leave the dock as James waves bye to the crowd of people who came to see him off.
