Chapter Two

Zeus's pov

"What do you want now, Apollo?" I sighed, exasperated by his incessant bugging. I stared at him as he pushed back his sun glasses and flashed his "million dollar smile" at me.

"Now, hear me out, Lord Zeus," he said cautiously, "So, I was thinking..."

"Yes?" I questioned with a roll of my eyes

"Well... I was wondering... if it would be..." he trailed off while glancing around the throne room.

"Oh, spit it out already! There's no need to beat around the bush." I exclaimed.

Poseidon chuckled and smiled, "Take it easy, brother. Just because you haven't had your coffee yet, does not allow you to be rude." He gripped his golden trident with one hand and smoothed out his blue Hawaiian shirt.

I frowned at his comment, portraying my annoyance, and looked back at Apollo. I said, "What do you want, Apollo?"

He took a deep breathe, "I want my own group of hunters. Artemis has her little group of girls, so I want my group of guys. You know, I grant them immortality in exchange for their loyalty and eternal servitude. Together we shall travel and hunt monsters all over Gaia, just like Artemis and her huntresses, except, rather than swearing off the opposite sex for all eternity, we pursue them because how can I, Apollo, make an oath like that? Anyways, that is what I want." Apollo looked at me earnestly.

"That's it? I don't care! Go ahead and make your own group of hunters. Just leave me alone," I said, clearly annoyed by his disturbing my quiet time.

"Yes! Thank you, Lord Zeus," Apollo exclaimed and pumped his fist in the air. He turned and bowed to Poseidon, "Enjoy the rest of your day, Lord Poseidon." Then, he turned to me and said, "Thank you once again, Lord Zeus." Finally, he vanished.

"Jeez, I thought he'd never leave me alone," I stated. Poseidon just chuckled once more as if my annoyance was as amusing as an animal doing random tricks for his entertainment.

"What's so funny, huh?" I asked him. He stuck up his hands in surrender, "Nothing!"

Wow! I can't believe it's been over fours years since I posted chapter one. My sincerest apologies, everyone. I guess I lost track of time.

Anyways, four years later and I'm out of high school and about to move away from home to attend college. How's everyone been? I hope you all enjoyed this chapter. Also, I hope my grammar has improved enough to your liking. Thank you all for the reviews, even the ones that were unnecessarily harsh, at least in my opinion.

Please leave more reviews! I love the feedback and try to do my best to change any errors and whatnot. I hope you enjoyed it! :)
