Chapter One A Place to Be
Long ago, the goddess of wisdom, Athena, was walking calmly on the shore of Athens. Athena was thinking of the state of the mortals and strategies to help them advance in technology. As she was walking she came across what looked like a bundle floating on a piece of driftwood near the further inspection, Athena discovered that the bundle was a babe with the most beautiful eyes she had ever seen, the color of jade stones. Athena wondered what a child like this was doing out on the shore with out proper care, so she decided to take the child to her cottage to think of what to do.
As Athena made her way to the cottage, she met Hermes along the way.
"Hey Athena how are you?" Hermes asked "Fine." Athena replied " Wow what's with the attitude?" Hermes smirked " Did Aphrodite get on your case again."
Athena sighed "Hermes, I have no time for this, as you can not see i have a child right now."
"huh?"
Hermes took a better look at the bundle in the goddess's arms. Athena could see the surprise on Hermes's face.
" I did know you had a kid" Hermes said " No!" Athena shouted " I found her while I was walking and I could not just leave the poor girl!"
"Hmm.."
"Well if you will excuse me"
" Well she has an usual pair of eyes don't you think"
" yes I noticed" Athena said annoyed with the time being wasted, "but I think there might be something special about her"
" Yeah. well good luck I have to deliver these messages bye!" Hermes exclaimed as he flew away leaving a trail of dust from his wing sandals.
Right when Athena made the move to go on the baby started to cry. Athena,who had never had a child was at a lost of what to do. She decided to search for food for the child and leave the babe in a safe spot. After Athena left the babe became curious with the contents in the sack that was being carried with her. Pushing the sack open the babe began to lick the silky substance that leaked out of a vial, Athena nectar for only the gods to drinks. Athena came back to find the bottle broken and the babe's mouth covered in nectar. Although there was no babe, now there was a 5 maybe 4 year old girl in the babe's place, Athena could still tell it was the child because of the child's eyes. Now this was not a matter for only her but for the Olympians as well.
Athena and the child arrives at the goddess's cottage. Inside, the child had remained silent while Athena got her proper clothes, but after a moment of silence the child seem to debate something in her head and then spoke,
" Who are you?"
" I am Athena" Athena answered, " goddess of wisdom"
" Who am I"
Athena pondered at the question, she was not sure the child was. Athena knew, however, for a fact that the child was special. The goddess thought that the child needed to be addressed as something.
"Jade." Athena said, "your name is Jade."
The young one seemed content with that answer and refrained from asking anything else.
They continued in silence to call a conference of the gods about the very soon to be special child.
The duo arrived not that long after in the Great Hall. Jade was enthralled by the beauty of the hall. As all children she had the impulse to touch everything but kept it to herself. All the Olympians were were seated in their thrones wondering what Athena had called them together for. The question was answered when they saw the child clinging to Athena clothes.
" What is the meaning of this Athena" Zeus bellowed, making the child lean into Athena more, " why have you brought this child here."
Athena explained events that had happened to that day and by the end of her tale all the gods and goddesses looked at the child in awe.
The child in question, however, was holding on to Athena for dear life. " We can not just leave her." Hera said.
Poseidon came down from his throne to greet the child. " Come here child what is your name."
The moment Poseidon touched Jade, the child paused and then screamed bloody murder . The sound was so awful that even Pan's Panic sounded like the music of a lyre compared to the cursed sound. Athena bent down and picked` up the screaming youth, immediately Jade stopped yelling and dozed away on Athena's shoulder.
" All I asked was her name." yelled Poseidon rubbing his ears, even for the gods that was a very strong cry. " She was just frighted, " explained Athena " She has not see anyone but me. "
"I believe that it would be foolish to let this child back down to the mortal world after seeing what she is capable of. " stated Hades " Since that weapon of sound is so attached to Athena, I suggest that we let the goddess of wisdom take care of her until we can find this child's origins." All the gods nodded their heads in agreement, this way the could find out just who this child was. " Very well ."said Athena Athena carried the child to her cottage, making a bed for the child and placing her in it. Then, Athena fell gracefully ,as a goddess must always, onto her bed in exhaustion wondering what the next day had in stored for her ' and my new child ' Athena wondered until sleep took her peaceful silence.
