The Family Secret
20 years has pass since the great battle of the Titans. Everything was at peace, and Hercules and Megara live happily in a castle in the country with their 10-year-old twin sons, Alexis and Zack.
Their home was golden brown with green vines that curled around its brick wall. It's had a marble fence around the bounds of the castle. Inside the castle, there was millions of medals, trophies and anything that was an award for great heroism. Upstairs, there were many rooms, each as beautiful as the next. Some rooms were filled with toys for Alexis and Zack. There was weaponry room and a few bedrooms. Strangely there was no one inside in this huge building.
Alexis and Zack both were at the Jr. Prometheus Academy. Like every mortal, they need an education. Their father was more than willing to give them a better education than he had, being raise from a poor family. Their parents, while the boys were at school, were debating with the King of the Gods.
'I think we should tell about you being their grandfather. They have the right to know,' Megara said with an angry look on her face. 'I understand your situation but, let's face it; they are too young to know the truth.' Zeus tried to explain to Megara.
'Dad's got a point, they are too young,' Hercules said.
'Whose side are you on?'
'I will always be on your side but they don't need to know this, at least not yet. And you know how they can be; the minute they found out about their family tree the more mischief they will get into.' Hercules tried to make Meg see his point of view but she wasn't going to give in without a fight.
'Well….how about you? You always leave practically every night to see each other and what if one of them decides to follow you then he sees umm…well you, Zeus, what are you going tell him, huh?' Megara stared at them with fire in her eyes.
'Well…umm….ok…you got me there.' This was the only battle that Hercules could never win.
'You know what, I'm going to leave and you two decide whether to tell them or not. Now, does that sound fair?' asked Zeus. Both Megara and Hercules nodded and Zeus was return to a statue form.
