Religion, or rather believing, is something everyone needs, to insure their survival. Cause when someone believes they have a purpose and a goal to become someone. And maybe someday they shall become that.

Now, what you just read is a total bullshit. No one needs religion or whatever. Gods are just some bitches who think they are better than everyone. They think that the world revolves around them, because what, they won a war? So what!

I know that winners write history, but I wouldn't say that is always true. Achilles lost to Paris and his killer arrows (oh man, that was so cool... I mean I guess...I wouldn't know...I wasn't there...I think) yet he is more famous than him. And there is a city with the same name as the Spartan prince. All he is known for is Helen. One more proof as to why women are more badass than men.

Anyways...back to the Gods.

You might have noticed that I have a few things to say about them. Well of course I do. They are the reason I am where I am. But I don't exactly hate them. I just don't like most of them. Some I hate, some I simply don't like. But there are some (a rare few) whom I actually like. But let's just go through them again, shall we?

Zeus. The master of the sky and that lightning thingy that he has. Not a good God. I mean all he does is sit on his throne, ignore Hera, seduce mortal women and play the hero in every story. From time to time he gets angry because Hercules said something 10.000 years ago, or Percy Jackson said something about his hair or something. Let's not forget to mention that he is the shittiest father ever. His daughter was turned into a tree. A fricking tree. No thank you.

Hera. The main bitch. She claims she is the goddess of marriage and family and shit. Aren't Gods supposed to be the best at what their powers are? Like Poseidon has the most power the sea. Zeus over the sky. Artemis is the best archer (fight me Apollo), Hephaestus the best smith, and so on. But like she is the goddess of marriage while her marriage is the worst one in the history of Greece. And Rome. And just history in general. Even Aphrodite and Hephaestus have a better marriage (and she is mostly with Ares).

Athena. Ugh, such an attention-seeking spoiled brat. I get it, your daddy is Zeus, you were born from his head blah blah blah. I hate her the most. She is just so annoying. Like can you shut up? We get it, you have your own temple. Yes, we know you have some "awesome" idea for Olympus. No, we will not listen to your battle plan (oh why you might ask....well cause they suck). Shut up, we don't care if your daughter is dating someone you don't like. Ugh, she never stops talking.

Ares. He is just...like why is he even a God? Don't get me wrong, I like the dude. He gets to kill people and be called a God for it. Like where can I sign for that job? But he is just a man version of Athena. Like she has brains, he has what...muscles?

Let's continue. Aphrodite. For a goddess of love, she is not so bad. She can't really fight (except with a perfume, believe me, she will spray it into your eyes) and all she does all day is secretly date Ares (even though we all know they have an affair) and scream when one of her so-called "ships" as much as touches each other. It's weird and I like to stay away from her as much as I can.

Hephaestus. He is actually amazing. He can make good weapons, which is quite useful when it comes to fighting. My dagger was made by him. And it has been with me for a long time. I respect the man (and I think that he low-key respects me as well).

Apollo. The most annoying God of them ALL. He is even worse than Athena. He literally hits on anyone and anything, which can get real weird, real fast. Ugh, and his haikus. Come on man, I can write better songs than you (also no one likes them). But his sister Artemis is amazing. She is so cool. And badass. And I respect badass women.

Poseidon. That little piece of shit. He likes to pick fights with Zeus, just cause. Don't get me wrong, I enjoy when they do that, but it's getting quite childish. I know that Poseidon is the God of the sea (I'm not gonna lie, that's pretty cool), and it makes no sense as to why he argues with his brother so much. Like you rule the sea, he has the sky, Hades has the underworld. All is fair and square. You don't see Hades out of his cave everytime he has a problem with Zeus.

Ah yes, Hades. I have no problem with him. I just don't particularly like him. He just gives off a dark vibe (which I am known for) and it can be quite scary sometimes. I mean, when it comes to wars, he is the God everyone should be afraid off, cause he is sick of everyone that dies and that he has to take care of them. And people keep coming into his underworld, like can you people just leave him alone? His wife is quite nice though.

Dementer. I don't see her often (and I like it that way) and she doesn't particulary like me, but we can't help it. We are practicaly family, we are bound to not liking each other. She is one of those Gods I don't hate, but don't like as well.

Hermes isn't so bad. He is just a messenger and you never get angry at the messenger. He is usually going somewhere but I had the privlige to talk to Martha and George. They are so cute and funny, I can never get enough of them (I think they like me more than Hermes to be honest).

Then we have the minor Gods like Hypnos (he is always hiding somewhere, most likely sleeping, so it's hard to talk to him), Nike (always busy but a badass woman), Hebe (not my favourite, but not bad), Nemesis (I like her, she brings balance to everything, also a badass), Iris (never seen her, never talked to her, looks cool), Dyonysus (not really a minor God, but I don't like him) who is always drunk or drinking (never eating though), Hestia (quite a warm woman, always nice), Eros (I hate the dude and I don't get what he is the God of, we already have a God of love) and Hecate. Oh she is the best. She is my favourite of them all (if they can play favoritism on their kids, I can do the same to them). She is always by my side as my mentor and almost a second mother.

You are probably wondering how I know so much about the Gods and have my opinion on them. I have actually met them, in fact, I live amongst them. Well almost.

You see, I was born in a fourth generation of Titans. There aren't many in my generation, since most of them are Gods, but I am not one. I am a Titan. My mother was one as well. But she isn't alive anymore because of a stupid prophecy.

My name is Vivian. I am the daughter of Zeus and his first wife Metis. I have a famous sister, Athena, is her name. I was raised by Hecate who didn't let Zeus kill me, but he didn't want to make me a God. So I am an immortal Titan, living amongst the Gods.

And I want my revenge. And don't you worry, I will get it.
