Theda's POV:

I was dumbstruck. Find the seven and group them before Hera takes the matter into her own hands?? How in the Hades are we supposed to do that? I was again shaken out of my shock when I noticed Tia and Twila having a food stuffing contest next to me, flinging bits of chocolate into my freshly combed hair.

"Twila! I thought we talked about showing manners in the presence of mother!" I snapped in wolf speak, secretly thankful for the distraction.

Twila turned to look at me, face covered in chocolate. I shook my head in embarrassment.

"But Tia started it!" She whined.

As if on cue, Tia licked fudge off her fingers.

I threw up my arms in exasperation.

"VLACAS," Thema hissed under her breath. It was nice to know my best friend had my side.

Trying to calm down the anger bubbling inside me, I carefully picked up a French fry, sighing as the bittersweet memories came. As I bit into the salty crust, I could almost feel his lips on mine. Almost.

I took in a shaky breath, putting the bitten fry onto my plate.

"I still can't believe that we have to go round up the seven!" I said to my pack, until I sensed my mothers presence behind me. Oops.

"You must. It is your destiny. Do it for me," mother Athena said.

That's when my control snapped.

"What did you just say? DO IT FOR YOU? When have you been there for me mother?????? WHERE WERE YOU WHEN I HAD TO SCAVENGE FOR FOOD IN TRASHCANS AND LOOK AFTER BABY TWILA, AND WHEN HE DIED. HUH? WHERE WERE YOU THEN? I could hear myself snap mentally.

CRACK! Something broke behind me but I didn't care.

"Theda," Athena said, her voice laced with worry.

"DONT THEDA ME! YOU COULD HAVE STEPPED IN AND STOPPED UNCLE FROM ABUSING US, BUT NO, YOU HAD GODLY DUTIES. WHY SHOUKD WE CRAWL BACK AND HELP YOU WHEN YOU'VE DONE ABSOLUTELY NOTHING FOR US AT ALL?!?"

From somewhere behind me, I heard Twila shriek, "HE ABUSED YOU? ALL I REMEBER IS YOU LOCKING ME IN THE CUPBOARD LIKE HARRY POTTER SAYING IT WAS A GAME! I ACTUALLY LIKED IT! AND YOU NEVER THOUGHT TO TELL ME?!"

More cracking sounds came but I ignored them.

"HOW DARE YOU SHOUT AT ME!" Athena roared.

"GIVE ME A REASON NOT TO!" I screamed back.

"I AM A GODDESS!"

I whipped my arms behind me and the breaking object behind me exploded, the remains falling to the ground. Athena's horrified glare was enough to tell me I blew up something important.

I turned to see a statue of Athena blasted to bits scattered all over the floor, and Twila, Tia, and Thema's surprised faces.

"We're leaving." I spat as I gathered up the pack and walked into the elevator.
