Chapter 1

Lately, Mount Olympus has been very uneventful

Since no problems or arguments have come up recently, God of War, Ares, has been extremely bored.

Most of the days, he just sits around under the shade and scowls into the distance.

I suppose I could start an argument or war between mortals, he thought.

He decided that would be sufficient enough, but when he reached the pool of water, he saw Apollo looking distractedly down into it.

Sneaking up behind him, Ares looked over his shoulder, curiosity getting the best of him.

He was startled to see that Apollo was looking at a girl, a very pretty girl to say the least, who was sitting in a room reading.

Apollo finally seemed to notice Ares and jumped around, startled.

"What are you doing, Apollo?"

"I was simply watching this mortal girl, very exceptional if you ask me." Apollo had a smug smirk on his face.

Ares narrowed his eyes at Apollo and looked down at the girl again.

"So you're watching the mortal, too?"

He looked up when he heard the familiar voice, and saw Athena standing where Apollo just was standing.

"Too?"

"Yes, many others have found her very intriguing. I even think she is very interesting, also. Very accomplished from what I heard."

Ares looked down at the girl again.

He took in her appearance, her dark brown hair that came down to just above her shoulders, her beautiful green eyes, her athletic physique, and her soft, pale skin.

He had to admit, she was very beautiful.

She looked around his age, probably in college by the looks of it.

Finally he tore his eyes away fom the girl and walked to his room.

When he walked in, he collapsed on his bed, ignoring the pain that hit his hip when his metal breast plate hit it.

He thought of the strange girl until he finally found sleep.

The next morning, Ares woke up with an idea that thoroughly satisfied him to fill his boredom.

After he found Zeus, Ares told him about his plan.

"I really don't think that's a good idea, Ares"

"Well, I'm still going to do it. I'm going to go crazy from boredom soon, so why not fill my time."

Zeus didn't protest again, but he didn't look to pleased about Ares leaving.

Ares looked down at the girl in the pool of water, and went to pay a little visit to her.

A/N: So how was it? THis is my first fanfic, so I'm all ears for improvments that need to be made.
