AN: AN: Originally didn't plan to post this, but I thought: What the heck?! Just post it. And, anyway, it's my story, I get to choose what to do with it.

14/02/15: The Olympians are in deep trouble: Gaia is rising once again with the help of Khaos. The Chinese Gods offer to help, and send First and Second Squad to Camp Olympus, but only one person, or god, can and HAD defeated the Destroyer, at the cost of his own life. They need him…but is there a deeper secret as to how to get Hawk back?


Prologue:

Hestia looked around the annual Summer Solstice meeting and sighed at the sight. This was not how family was supposed to act. Zeus was currently being chewed out by Hera, the goddess of marriage, while Hades was arguing heatedly with Demeter about keeping her daughter. Said daughter was sat to the side, looking annoyed at being the subject of attention.

Poseidon and Athena were arguing about the Athens incident despite it having happened a long long time ago. Ares was currently flirting with Aphrodite while sharpening his knife. Dionsyus was sprawled on his throne, flicking through a wine magazine. Hermes was looking at his caduceus-phone, while Apollo and Artemis were having their usual 'I'm older' argument.

Hephaestus was fiddling with something in his hands, scowling at Aphrodite all the while. He put the object down and sighed as well, nodding to Hestia, who was the only one who didn't tease or hate him. She smiled warmly as she nodded back, making Hephaestus feel better.

It was only when several beings suddenly morphed from the ground in front of the Olympian council did their conversations slowly dwindle to a stop. One of the newcomers - the Chinese god of power, who also happened to be highly respected - stood forward.

Beside him stood Zhu Rong, the god of fire, in all of his glory, hand in hand with his wife (the god of power's daughter) Eagle, the goddess of agriculture. Eagle's many brothers and sisters stood around them. Wong Tai Sin, the god of healing; Guan Yu, the god of war which included physical and strategies of war; Erlang Shen, the god of knowledge; Chi You, the second god of war - made immortal because of his skills; Mei, goddess of skill and weaponry; Zai, the god of strength and patience; Re, the goddess of wonders and memories; Hë, the god of water; Mi, the goddess of discovery and justice; and Bao Qing Tian, the god of judgement.

Zeus stepped forward. "Lëi," He said respectfully to the oldest god in the room. "What can we do to be of service?"

Lëi eyed him shrewdly. "Tell me, Zeus. What do you know of our youngest: Hawk?"

Hestia spoke up. "Hawk? The Chinese god of creation and protection?" She remembered the times of old, when the six Olympian gods were first created. The children of Kronos and Rhea, along with Aphrodite, had met all of the Chinese gods after their creation, and Hestia was particularly fond of Hawk in particular.

However, only Hawk had met all of the Olympian gods. He was someone who had this trustworthy aura around him, and combined with the fact that he was both the most peaceful and the youngest, yet also strongest, intrigued her. Hestia cringed as she looked at the murderous look on Artemis' face until it slipped off as Eagle sent a sharp glare to her. The goddess of the hearth sighed. Except for the fact that he didn't get along with Artemis' 'man-hating' ways.

He may have been mostly peaceful, but he had an attitude when he wanted to. Especially if he was angry at something. She chuckled, remembering his amusing way of intentionally talking in Old Chinese just to annoy and frustrate someone.

She, along with many of the minor gods, were upset when he passed.

Eagle nodded at the mention of her brother. The other Chinese gods also became quite despondent. Even thousands of years later, the mention of their late youngest brother still made them upset. "Yes. My brother."

"What about him?" Athena asked.

Eagle looked up. "Hawk is not where we think he is. He is not in the void of the faded."

"What?" Zeus asked, confused.

"He is not in the realm of the faded." Eagle repeated. "We think that there is more to his death than it seems, and we will send some warriors over that could hopefully prove to be more helpful."

"Hopefully?" Zeus asked, as the gods and goddesses exchanged worried glances.
