Thalia and Luke looked at their beautiful twin daughters; Amelia dressed in pastel blue and Claire in pastel purple. The gods and goddesses were there to greet the children.

"Oh they're so adorbs aren't they Ares?" Aphrodite cooed.

"Sure." The god of war snorted.

"Well we should probably get this started we are quite busy." Athena interjected.

"Well then I guess I will start," Zeus smiled,

"I bless the girls with my blessing and the gift of leadership."

Hermes then stepped forward, "I also give my granddaughters my blessing and the gift of sneakiness."

Thalia looked up at Luke who just shrugged. Apollo stepped forward, "They will receive two gifts one for each. Claire will receive the gift of prophecy, and Amelia the gift of music." Luke paled a bit when Apollo bestowed the gift of prophecy upon his daughter.

Artemis stepped forward, "I give them the gift of the way of the wild animals so no harm will come to them in any form of danger involving the wild animals."

Athena stepped forward, "They will receive the gifts of knowledge and logic."

"Ooh me next!" Aphrodite smiled and bounded forward, "I gift them with beauty and a sense of style." Thalia closed her eyes and sighed.

Ares stepped forward next, "I give them the gift that they will always be able to fight their own battles."

Poseidon stepped forward, "I gift them a sense of safety and security in the water, a place where they can go to think."

Demeter stepped up next, "I grant them the gift to grow spectacular gardens." Thalia and Luke looked at on another with puzzled expressions but returned their eyes to their sleeping daughters in their bassinets.

Hera stepped forward, "I give them the gift of an easy married life when the time comes."

Hades then stepped forward, "I give them the gift of no fear, something they'll need in their lives."

Hephaestus stepped forward next, "I grant them the gift to create."

And finally Dionysus stepped up, "I give them the gift to party and have a good time because everyone needs that once in a while."

Soon enough the girls were being passed around the room in the arms of the gods. As the girls were handed back to Thalia and Luke they both started to fuss and cry. Thalia held Amelia and Luke held Claire trying their hardest to calm the wailing infants. The room was filled with gold smoke that disappeared as quickly as it had appeared. There in the middle of the room stood Kronos in his full Titanly glory, "How come I wasn't invited to this wonderful party. This hurts me Luke."

"This is impossible you were sent back to Tartarus!" Zeus roared in outrage.

"Well there was a little help from someone, but I'm not going to get into the details dear son. Now let me see the bouncing bundles of joy." His voice was like nails on a chalkboard.

Without any effort whatsoever he plucked both children out of their parents' arms. He smiled wickedly and looked at the infants, "Aren't they beautiful? Do you remember me Luke?"

"Give me back my daughters." Luke demanded in an even tone of voice.

"Daddy's getting all protective so I better make this quick no huh girls?" Kronos asked the girls began to cry. The gods in the room were beginning to pull their weapons out of defense. They didn't want to strike yet in fear of what Kronos might do to the infant daughters of Thalia and Luke.

"What shall I gift you with?" Kronos asked, "Ahh that's right I will gift you with the gifts that I know will fit you both. I gift Claire with the gift of weak willpower, and Amelia with the gift of overrun curiosity."

Kronos then set the girls back into their parents' arms and left in another cloud of golden smoke. Zeus and Hermes were outraged and ordered the other gods to scour the world for any signs of the Titan Lord. Thalia was weeping in Luke's arms and he was trying to assure her that this was all going to be ok. The girls were sleeping again and the gods were out doing as they were told.

"Don't worry Thalia we'll find him and we won't allow him to harm the girls." Zeus assured his distraught daughter. That's when Thalia and Luke decided that it was too dangerous to keep the girls together. They made the decision to spilt up until they know it was safe.
