The Sea's Daughter and the Sun's Warmth
A Fan-fiction
The days were more peaceful now, and the Olympic people were cheerful and carefree once more. The war between the Gods and the Titans was over long over, for roughly 20 years now. The pact between the Big Three was in discussion, whether it should still be in play or not.
*At Olympus*
The 12 Gods of Olympus were seated in their U shaped seats, in their true size, but not there true forms, it would cause the place to be too bright. Even Hades was there since the discussion involved him.
"I see no reason for this pact to still be in place." said Athena. "As long as Apollo has no prophecy that concerns their children, it is a useless pact between you three."
"Yes, but I rather like this pact. Sure you Gods have had some, slip ups during the 70 years it has taken place, with Zeus and Poseidon having their children, but it keeps my husband from having mortal children with other human women." Hera said with pleasure.
"Yes, but I do miss those mortal women, some are just so intriguing." Poseidon stated.
"I also grow restless of this pact." Hades added. One of his activities during spring and summer, when his wife, Persephone was with her mother in the upper world, he would take trips to the upper world as well. He was just so bored without her during those times, so he would sometimes meet women. It kept him busy.
Zeus also missed playing around with mortal women, but he wasn't sure that would be the best thing to state with his very jealous wife, Hera sitting right next to him. He did think of a way to disagree with the pact without sounding like he wanted it to be gone for the obvious reason of being with women.
"I think this pact should be gone with as well." Zeus proclaimed.
"Zeus, how dare you say something like that while I'm sitting right here!" Hera yelled.
"You miss understand, my beautiful wife," Zeus said while patted Hera's hand gently, "I want this pact to be gone because I feel like the King of Gods shouldn't have any restrictions. I disagree not because I want to cheat on you, but for that I feel like the Big Three should be shown as the strongest, which we are. This pact makes us look weak and childish." he smiled and never left Hera's eyes.
This speech seemed to hit the others as well. Did this pact make them look weak? Is it even necessary now, since Thalia and Percy were great demigods? Sure, the Big Three's children were very strong, but if they were raised right, they could have better control of their tempers and whatnot. Thalia and Percy were good experiments for this notation. The more the Gods thought about it, the more the idea didn't seem so bad. With Zeus's speech, Hera was even on board.
When it came time to vote everyone said yes, to end the pact. Ares thought if it went wrong, a new war would spring upon them, the human kind, not the Godly kind, so he would win there. Athena thought it would be fun to see how the kids reacted, if they would be calm and keep their tempers under control.
Aphrodite was very excited for the vote to pass. She came up with a great new love story, but knew it was much too great for a mere mortal woman, but a beautiful demigod of one of the Big Three would be absolutely perfect. She very eagerly agreed.
Apollo saw the look on Aphrodite's face, but said nothing of it. She always had some kind of look, so he couldn't really think much of it.
"So it is decided. For the time being, the pact between the Big Three concerning the birth of their demigod children is gone." Zeus declared happily.
Everyone seemed happy about the discussion, and left Olympus. Hades and Poseidon went to go and find women, finally free of the pact. Zeus would have joined them, if only his wife weren't still seated beside him.
