Chapter 1: New Beginnings
It was a brand new day on Mount Olympus, a purple god named Apollo had just saddled up his two red and yellow horses to drive the sun chariot and to bring light to the heavens and the earth. With dawn approaching all the other gods were sleeping soundly in their own beds, or rising early to get into the bathhouse while it wasn't crowded, unfortunately for the sleeping deities two gods namely Athena and Ares where converging upon the same location, and everyone knew those results were just begging for a disaster.
Earlier in the morning, in one of the many residences of Mount Olympus, the goddess Athena woke slowly her crystal clear blue eyes opening gradually as she rose from her cloud bed, her pet owl Ibid sleeping soundly on his perch. Still wearing her nightgown, a short royal blue tunic, which fell to mid thigh, with a golden pin on her left shoulder, leaving the other bare, she walked to a cloud chest of drawers and retrieved a light blue towel and started out towards the bathhouse.
Similarly Ares woke, grumbling about the earliness of the hour, jumped out of his cloud bed, choosing to change his outfit at the bathhouse Ares left on his canary yellow pyjamas with matching sleeping cap on and pulled open his chest of drawers to take a blood red towel and meandered towards the bathhouse.
Apollo could see from his vantage point on the highest peak of Mount Olympus, aside from Zeus and Hera's bedroom, the calamity that was about to take place, gulping Apollo didn't want to be around when a grumpy king of the gods woke up to the two of them squabbling...again. Racing into his chariot Apollo snapped the reins of his horses and took off, leaving Mount Olympus far behind.
Athena was walking quietly to the bathhouse, not paying attention to where she was going until she bumped into her hate filled half brother Ares, naturally this was all it took for the two to begin squabbling.
"Watch where you're going fat head!" Ares bellowed as he was knocked to the ground by his sister.
"Bite me tubby!" Athena screeched back as she leaned over to properly yell in his face.
"Tubby? Why I oughta..." Ares began as he stood up again, his rant coming to an end as a thunderbolt landed next to his feet and with an unmanly squeak he whirled around to face a pissed off Zeus.
The two gods eyes widened with fear as they took in their father's expression.
"That's it I am sick and tired of you two bickering continuously, every day it's the same thing, it stops now!"
"But father."
"Dad."
Their protests died instantly as Zeus glared at them.
"Am I making myself clear?" Zeus asked with a raised brow.
"Yes sir." They responded as they looked at the ground, pouts on both of their faces.
"Good, now Ares kiss your sister."
"WHAT?!" They both yelled simultaneously and looked at the other, disgust evident in their expressions.
"Do it." Zeus commanded in his best father voice.
Sighing Ares turned to face Athena grabbed her by the hand and pulled her down to place a chaste and very quick peck on her lips. Both gods felt a strange stirring feeling in their private areas at the sensation of the kiss. Once it was over both gods straightened and wiped their mouths with the backs of their hands and they started making gagging noises. Satisfied Zeus watched them carry on, and just as he turned to return to Hera he added.
"And no more fighting or I'll make your next punishment rival Typhon's."
Suitably frightened both gods quickly nodded their heads and placed their arms around the other in a hug. Smirking Zeus laughed and walked away from the two back to Hera.
Releasing the other Ares and Athena straightened and walked into the bathhouse, they separated and walked into the split dressing areas for gods and goddesses. Athena sighed quietly as she stripped out of her nightgown and wrapped herself in her towel before heading to the communal bathing area. She slid into the warm water, placing her towel at the water's edge before sinking down under the water to do some serious thinking.
Similarly Ares was confused toward his inward reaction to kissing his sister, what did it mean? Ares walked out of the gods' changing area to get into the huge bath water, not seeing his sister Ares felt comfortable in getting into the water, it was only then did he see that his sister was sitting on the bottom of the bath. Sighing quietly he slid into the water too and sank down to the bottom. Where he could watch his sister.
Athena likewise was having trouble just comprehending what had just happened, as far as she knew she had always despised her brother and the feeling was mutual, but that flash of heat she had felt in the pit of her stomach obviously made her question everything about their relationship or lack thereof. Tartarus this was making her head hurt.
While Athena was busy just trying to make sense of the situation, Ares had come to the conclusion that the only way to figure out if these weird feelings that he was having towards his sister were mutual he needed to...kiss her again. Ares quickly swam over to where his sister was sitting on the bottom of the bath and grabbed her by her upper arm, pulling her up to the surface. Athena looked at her brother in confusion as she struggled to control her breathing the sensation of having him so close to her body was making concentration very difficult. Ares took the time to take in his sister's appearance, from her clear blue eyes, her soaked hair falling down her back in waves and her heaving chest. That did it. Steeling his resolve Ares grabbed his sister's face in his hands and pulled her to him, when their lips touched it was like the Elysian Fields on earth. Ares suppressed a groan as he felt Athena close the distance between them and press her body against his. Feeling his arousal growing Ares quickly separated himself from Athena and took in her swollen lips and the lust in her eyes. It was all he could do to not take her right then and there. But there were two things the two gods knew was that things would never be the same between them and Mount Olympus was going to be a very interesting place from now on.
