Zeus walked up to Orpheus at Mount Olympian.
"You do realize it's time right?" Zeus asked while staring at Orpheus.
"Can't I just get one more year?"
"You said that last year so no. They are going to find them. Or they will find you. You have to go or I will banish you from and make you a regular mortal." Zeus said sternly.
"By now I honestly don't care anymore."
"Just go. You will be reunited with Eurydice, like always."
"That's the thing though," Orpheus sat up in his chair, "you go and have children with whoever you want. How come I am always with Eurydice? What if i don't recognize them and I have to live the rest of that life lonely and loveless? Why can't I be like you?"
"Fate, my child. Fate." Zeus walked away without another word.
"IM ONLY GOING TO THIS ONE MORE TIME AND THEN IM DONE" Orpheus shouted to no one.
He then went into the form of an ordinary mortal man. What should my name be this time? I'm going to be Chinese so let's go with......Chenle. Yeah, that fits. He walked out of Olympus and flew to Bradenton, Florida. I'm in the mood for some sun.
He went into the Olympian House that was located in every city, but only gods and goddesses could see it. As he walked in, he looked in the mirror. Hey not as bad as last time. The rest of the day was spent getting used to his 16-year-old body and unpacking. That night, he realized that he would have to go to school in the morning. Fuck my life and fuck Zeus. He thought as he fell asleep.
