Zeus paced around the meeting room. Damn them all to tarterus where WERE
they? He
had speciffically said that this was an improtant matter! Gritting his teeth he
tried to stay
calm. He was the king of the gods and he was not going to fall apart. He
suddenly felt five
other power signitures come close and fought to compose himself. They would get
through this.
She sat up looking around. Ok, she was in the woods. But how did she get
there? Looking
around she saw she was alone. Suddenly a pang of pain in her arm made her look
down. A
long cut from just below her shoulder to just above her elebow. #I should really
clean
that# she thought vaguly as she stumbled to her feet. Ok she had to stay calm
and think.
Even though she couldn't remember who she was.
Zeus's office was stone silent after he had relayed the information that the
fates had given
him.
"How can this be?" demeter finally broke the silence by asking the question that
they all
wanted to know, the fact her voice was faint not-withstanding.
"Well if we go by what the fates said then a few of the titans escaped into the
hallways of
tme somehow." Zeus answerd his calm demenor not betraying how much this unerved
him.
"Should we tell the others?" Hestia asked.
"No...I don't think we should" Hades voice was slow and deliberate as though he
had really
digested what was happening fully before speaking. "We are the senior gods. We
are
responisble. I don't think we should tell them....unless there is no other
choice."
More silence as the others thought on the god of the dead's words. Even demeter
who had
never forgiven him for taking her daughter had to see the sense in what he said
although
she'd never admit it.
"I think hades is right." Hera spoke softly "We should try to find theses titans
reborn before
doing any thing else."
Zeus nodded "And we all know the fastest way."
They all nodded though they're expressions showed their distaste but they got in
a circle
and put their hands in fingertips touching and spoke as one:
We are the six children of cronos
in our veins run his blood
we are the defeaters of the titans
and keeps of sky, life, death and flood
we call on our blood now
to find those that are lost
wheather they be near or far
surround by heat,water or frost.
We offer our engeries as trackers
to find the ones we seek
as these words are spoken
let barrier's be broken
and let them find reborn tiatan of the greek.
A light shimmered in their circle for a moment then flew out the window and
dissaperd.
The six deity's seemed to slump from the loss of engery but recoverd after a
moment.
"Well." Zeus said "All we can do now is wait."
