The Goddess and the King

The young woman sighed heavily as she looked down from the balcony onto the world beneath. She was wearing a white sleeveless satin tunic which was wrapped around with a golden leaf belt. Her hair was a beautiful golden brown and it reached her shoulders. She wore a headband on it which almost looked like a crown. It was silver and had the most luxurious patterns on it and her eyes were ocean green. The young woman felt like the life had been sucked out of her and she felt emotionless. Her hands were drawn to the balcony and she felt compelled not to let go as if her life depended on it.

She often spent most time of her time on this balcony. It was decorated with roses and green vines which gave it an earthy look. She sighed heavily again and looked down onto the world known as Gaia. She was so curious to know what it was like there, no one would tell her. They were often to busy with their jobs that they did for Gaia.

Her father was Éclat, was the King of the Gods and she was his youngest daughter, Hitomi. She was the youngest of the seven. And her siblings had all reached Godly status.

The eldest was her brother Alexander; he was the God of Holy. He was married to Athena, the goddess of Wisdom and they had a son called Apollo who was the God of the Sun. Apollo was older than her. Alexander had silver hair and blue eyes. He was quite muscular but he was mainly known for his gentleness. Athena had brown hair and had brown eyes and she was known for her wisdom. And then there was their son Apollo, he was dashing young man, who was a blonde Adonis. He had blue eyes that mocked the sky and his hair was golden like the sun's rays and he well known for his rashness.

The second child was her sister Siren who was the Goddess of Song. Siren had married the beast Bahumat. He was the God of the Beasts and she loved him dearly. Siren had golden locks and tantalising green eyes. Siren was known for her beautiful voice that would enchant anyone. She had also blessed with golden wings on her forehead. Her husband had taken a form as a Dragon and they had a daughter Isis who was the Goddess of the Moon, she was well known for being mysterious. She had purple hair and blue eyes. They also had a son Mercury who became the Messenger of the Gods. He had blue hair and brown eyes. He was well known for his speed. They too were older than her.

The third child was her sister Shiva who was the Goddess of Ice. Shiva had blue hair and her body was blue. She was cold in personality as well as looks. She refused to marry anyone. She adored enchanting men and making them her slaves.

 
The fourth child was her brother Ifrit who was the God of Fire. He had married Diana. She was the goddess of Hunting, Chastity and Marriage. Ifrit was a beast with red hair and a brown furry body. She had remembered using him as teddy bear when she was younger. Diana had pink hair and blue eyes. They had a son Poseidon who was the God of the Sea and earth quakes and yet again he was older than her. He had green hair and green eyes and was well known for his temper.
 
 The fifth child was her sister Tirana who was the Goddess of the Earth and she had married Ares the God of War who was strangely calm. They had the twins Thanatos and Eros. Thanatos was the Goddess of Death. She had black hair and blue eyes and Eros was the God of Life. He had Blonde hair and brown eyes. And those two were older than her by a decade.

And finally there was her sixth sibling, her Brother Hades. He was the God of the Underworld and the one who was the closest to her heart. He was five years older than her. And he was unmarried. Hades and she were far by the youngest. They never understood why the mother and father had them so far off from birth from her other siblings. They were eighty years or more, older than her and him but yet they looked the same age, all of them. Well that's what they got for being Gods and Goddesses they didn't have to age and the whole immortality thing. Hades had mixture of blonde and black hair and he had blue sort of purple eyes. He was eerily beautiful. He was known well for his passiveness and suave and his love for Hitomi was strong.

Hitomi remembered the day her brother, Hades, had found out that he was the God of the Underworld. It had killed them both. Hades had comforted Hitomi and told her not to cry. She hardly saw him anymore and she became eerily quiet after that. She was all alone. And soon she had to suffer that fate.

You see the Gods and Goddesses don't get a specific job until they turn eighteen. Their jobs before they had them were run by their father and his brothers and sisters and even friends but as they all soon began to have children they decided to pass down one specific job down onto the children so the load could be taken of them. Hitomi was told by her elder siblings that you knew which God or Goddess you were going to be at birth by the way you looked and your behaviour but Hitomi had no idea.

She had been very surprised when Hades was chosen to be the God of the Underworld and so did Hades by the look of things. Hades told her that she would be the Goddess of Beauty; she had simply laughed at him and told him it was unlikely. She hoped she wasn't it would be an extremely boring job if she did.

Hitomi felt so alone, there was no one of her age even if they looked it and it just didn't feel the same. There were people older than her and they were much older and then there were people younger than her but they were babies. She didn't even have any cousins her age. The only person she did have was Hades and that ended five years ago. She still had gotten to see him but it wasn't the same and now her fate had come.

She was to turn eighteen in two weeks and then her fate would be bestowed upon her. She didn't want to be a Goddess. Her Mother Hera came onto the balcony. She was the winged Goddess of Victory and the Queen.

"Hitomi, darling are you alright?" she asked.

"Yes mother," Hitomi replied with no emotion.

"You're worried aren't you?" she asked.

"I'm fine," Hitomi replied with no emotion again.

"You never talk to anyone, it very unhealthy," Hera worryingly said.

Hitomi didn't reply instead she looked down onto Gaia. Her mother realised she didn't want to talk and so she left.

I don't want to do this, Hitomi thought as a tear ran down her cheek. She sat there crying for a while and then it hit her. They can't make me a Goddess if I'm not here. She thought. Suddenly she felt a rush of hope.

That's it I'll run away, but run away to where, she then looked down and saw Gaia. That's where! She then ran into her chambers.
