afraid that is my fault,you see your father isn't the most handsome man on olympus so I had a few indescretions with the other gods,and if he saw you he would probably think you were fathered by someone else.""Was I?""No of course not,I'm the goddess of love, compassion , beauty not lying."She laughed.I sat back and looked around, I was in Mount olympus!I'm a goddess oh Haley wasn't going to believe this,Haley! Oh what is she going to think , she's going to think i'm such a big freak.As if reading my mind my mother rubbed my arm ,"Haley is a goddess as well so you shant worry.""What!!

Myka

I woke up on an uncomfy bed with Hales and Collin staring at me, wait Collin why was he here?"OMIGOSHAREYOUOKAYWEWERESOWORRIEDABOUTYOUANDTHENKCWASBEINGADOUSCHENOZZLESOWESENTHIMOUTNDWEFOUNDOUTYOURAGODD-"I put my finger to her lips and said,"I know and so are you."She looked at me and said,"What, oh you must have a fever or something.""Your mom is Daphne goddess of the rivers and your father is Apollo god of archery , strength , and the sun.""How would you even know.""I met my real mom.""You met Aphrodite?""Yes and she told me about how our mothers are bestfriends."She smiled and then screamed out in pain grabbing her forearm, Collin got up and practically ran to her setting her down on the edge of the bed.He moved her sleeve out of the way to reveal a tattoo o a sun abov a river. She winced and whispered,"So this is what getting a tattoo feels like,well I don't like it."Collin and I both laughed.


I looked up at Collin who looked older,stronger,wiser,and well let me just say hotter!He looked sheepishly at me and said, "So she told you everything huh."I nodded and replied,"Yes my protector." He smiled."Oh get a freaking room guys,oh wait,well this is awkward..."She snapped.We all laughed and there was a knock at the door.We all got silent and I got up and walked over to look to the peephole,it was KC,I quickly opened it and hugged him.He didn't hug back and Collin yelled,"Go the fuck away you douchebag!"KC stormed over to Collin and got ready to punch him but before his hand hit Collin's face Collin grabbed KC's fist and thrusted it towards the floor."Who the hell are you you fucking freak you too Myka!"I almost stumbled back in disbelief, what the hell had gotten into him!"Your the only freak here jackass!"I yelled pushing him towards the door.Collin and Haley nodded in agreement as he fled the room.


I ran to the bed and I wouldn't have known if I was crying if Collin hadn't wiped a tear from my face.I collapsed on the bed , how could he think i'm a freak!I tought out of everyone he would understand.I looked up at Haley,"So you're a goddess too!"She nodded and smiled, wiping a tear from her cheek."So Collin are you here to protect all of us?""No, just you Haley's protector is coming, the protectors come once you get your tattoo."She nodded and said,"Is it going tobe a boy or a girl and if it's a boy is he going to be hot?""It's going to be a dude for sure but I have no idea whether he's hot.""Damn"we all laughed and then we heard another knock at the door."I'll get it ."Haley said quickly walking to the door.She opened it and this gorgeous man with no hair,by choice, and creamy chocolate brown skin with bright green eyes and big muscles .He was wearing a grey t-shirt that said Oregon state university and tan cargo pants with all black Vans.Haley than hugged him and said,"Oh you're even more perfect than I imagained!""You imagained me miss?""Yes of course my protector.""Oh okay then you already know who I am,my name is Grayson."


"Aww you even ha-"She then fell but before she hit the ground Grayson caught her and carried her to the bed.He put her down and turned to Collin."Did it happen this early for Myka too?" Collin nodded, How in the hell did he know my name!?Oh well it's not important."So when we black out like that that means our real parents want to talk to us?""Yes but they aren't supposed to contact you till you're 25 birthday.""Yeah,i'm only twenty-two.""Which is why there must be something wrong in Olympus."Grayson said to Collin.Collin nodded and they both turned to me."What did your mother say to you?""She just told me about who I am , oh and she said if my father found out I was alive he would kill me.""And you're just telling us now because..?"Collin said his face turning red and balling his fists with anger.He looked really scary in fact even though he was my protector I thought he was going to kill me.I put my hand on his arm and his face turned back to it's olive-y color.


Who are you I said looking into his eyes."I am Cephates,the son of goddess Artemis and god Paeon, and your protector."What are they god and goddess of?""Artemis,my mother is the goddess of the hunt and protection, my father,Paeon , was the pysician of all the gods.""And you?"I said looking over at Grayson,"I am Phelatos son of Panacea, the goddess of healing and Telesphorus the god of recouperation from injury or illness.""Oh i'm starting to see a theme here, our parents chose kids from the healing gods to protect us."They both nodded and I said,"Well then it's a good thing you're protecting me and my bestfriend.""I'm so happy they put us together protecting two bestfriends seeing as we are bestfreinds as well."Collin said."Yes i agree"Grayson said high-fiving him."Really?""Yes we went to the same school and our parents were bestfriends due to them being in the same 'profession'"Grayson said with a laugh.


"Oh how cool I said let's just hope Haley's trip was as fulfilling as mine."We all nodded in agreement.

Chapter 8

Haley

Woah I thought to myself as i woke up in silk pajamas on the freaking comfiest bed in the entire world i'm guessing!I looked around and everything was clouds the walls were clouds the floors were clouds and there was a regular ol' door right off to the side of me that I wouldn't have known was there if there wasn't a knock at the door."Come in."I said trying to sound brave.All of a sudden a gorgeous man with olive skin and golden curly blond hair with cheasnut brown eyes walked in. He was wearing what looked like like a pearl colored cape and manly skirt thing with a helmet that looked like a trojan warrior helmet in his hand.Standing beside him was a beautiful black woman with long curly black hair like a raven's feathers, she had blue eyes with a gold shimmer in them, she wore a short toga with a thick brown braided belt wearing brown sandals the were twisted up he calf and an olive branch crown.


I instantly knew who they were,mom and dad , my real mom and dad."Mom?Dad?"I said afraid they would turn out to be people who wanted to kill me.They smiled looked at eachother than ran to me and hugged me tight.I hugged back with all I could.I felt right at home."Oh Haley we haved missed you so!"I looked down and the thought of them leving me with a horrible drunk of a adoptive mom fluttered through my brain and made me really angry."Why the hell did you leave me with that asswipe of a mom when I could of been living here!"I said displaying the room with my hand.They looked at eachother and then at the floor made out of clouds."We had to protect you."She spoke."What?From who?""From Aphaestus,Myka's dad.""Why would I need protection does he want to kill me or something?""Yes i'm afraid he does, he was mad at Aphrodite for cheating on him that he would kill any child she had and we defended Aphrodite and he said he would kill our first born for butting in.""Well,no offense to Myka but her dad sounds like a douche,omigosh ,i'm sorry I don't even know if I can cuss in front of you!""It's okay but we prefer you not to."I don't mean to be rude but, uh, do I have powers and stuff?"They lauged and my mom said,"Yes you can control water and you are really good at hunting.""Oh cool!I've always wanted to hunt."This made my dad smile and shake my shoulder in exitement."I can teach you!"he said


"So can I live here now if you don't mind me
