At the time..
Athena paced the golden tiles of the throne room. She stopped and buried her face in her hands. When she had calmed herself enough to speak she glared at Apollo and Hermes.
'Explain to me once more why Western Civilisation is crumbling to ashes?' she growled. Apollo stared guiltily at his frayed sandals, averting Athena's thunderous gaze. She turned her eyes accusingly to Hermes.
'Well?' she spat menacingly.
'It seemed like a good idea at the time,' he muttered, suddenly very interested in his winged converse. Athena walked around the beautifully ornate room and came to a halt a metre from the two gods. They were both taller than her, she standing at a mere 11 feet, but they cowered as her wrath towered above them.
'A good idea!?' her voice was almost silent, darkness seemed to tinge the very sky. 'A good idea?' the gods winced, 'I'm sorry Lord Hermes,' her voice dripped with sarcasm, 'In what universe are you living in that this passes as a good idea? You imbeciles! You have destroyed the gods! You...you unbalanced, foolish upstart!' she shrieked. 'Go to the crows.' With this she made a three fingered claw over her heart (a gesture for warding off evil) .
After ten minutes Athena took a deep, steadying breath and held Apollo's gaze with her enthralling grey eyes.
'Just remind me...why?' she asked shakily. Apollo dropped his gaze again, a faint smile playing on the edge of his lips but Hermes nudged him and he forced a straight face.
'Well...em...at the time Hermy and I thought it would be a good idea,' he corrected himself 'we thought it would be...an idea if we,' he muttered the next line very quickly through clenched teeth 'accidentally-on-purpose tricked Harry Potter and Percy Jackson into switching lives.' In the corner Aphrodite giggled and Dionysus smirked.
'And...at the time...it didn't occur to you that...perhaps the world might need the heroes of modern civilisation in their original lives?' she chided. They replied in unison,
'Not at the time, no.' Athena made a violent choking gesture with her hands, then collapsed into her throne.
'Great,' she sighed 'That's just great.'
