Hestia/Eve cried out when she swung her sword. The blade was white and it glowed softly. Obviously a gift from Order.

"Hestia please listen to-"

"My name is Eve, you ignorant filth!!"

"Just listen-"

"Shut up!!" The girl's moves were heavy but talented.

Perci was off her game. Seeing her baby sister alive but under the control of Order, killed her. But the demigoddess kept up and threw away every possible kill shot, "What I have done to you? What has Order said?"

"He said you'd fill my head with lies!!"

Tears were forming in her eyes, her childish nature peaking through, "That you'd killed my mother! My father! My sister!!"

Rage blossomed in Perci's stomach.

How dare he!! That monster had done this to a child! Her sister, no less!!

"Hestia-"

"That is not my name!!"

"It is your name!! Your mother's name was Sally Jackson and father's Paul Blofis!"

"You sick creature! Knowing the names of the people you killed! You're a monster!!"

The anger coursing her veins, exploded out from her in a vicious, inhuman scream. The shock of it froze Hestia in place for a second. A quick flick of her wrist and the girl's sword was gone from her hand, Riptide suddenly imbedded in her chest.

The blue grey eyed girl coughed and slid off the Celestial Bronze sword.

Perci caught her before she hit the ground. The demigoddess held her tightly, silent tears falling from her eyes and dripping down onto her sister's cheeks, "Oh Gods no..."

"How d,do you know m,my parents names?"

"Because Sally's my mum."

Hestia looked up at her, eyes wide, "You're my s,sister?"

Perci nodded quickly, a sob leaving her mouth.

"You didn't kill them."

"No! No I didn't. I am so sorry. Stay with me, okay. Please."

The Saviour looked up when a soft hand suddenly touched her arm.

There kneeled Sally Jackson, wearing a sad smile, "Give her to me, Perci."

But the demigoddess held her tight, "No! She's not dying. She's staying with me."

Her mother shook her head. Somehow, Perci's arms fell away when Sally moved to pick Hestia up.

The girl dissolved in her embrace, then appeared next to her with a look of awe, "Mum?"

"Yes my love."

Sally stroked her daughter's hair and pulled her tight.

Perci could only watch as the mother and daughter met once again, feeling like a stranger.
