Authors note: I am sooooo sorry for not uploading sooner! The only computer that I had did not have word on it, sooo I couldn't upload or anything! I still love those who still read my stories and I will try to be more active in my writing.

Also, I might be starting over on my hp fanfic (Then Secret Life of Luna Lovegood) mainly because I am at a dead point and I realized just how uninteresting and badly written it was, so look for that.

On to the story! Wait, also again. I am changing the point of view of the story, 3rd person limited…although I think that's what it already was. O well. Enjoy!

p.s I do not have a copy of the Alchemyst with me and as you know I follow that story line and just paraphrase….so I will just have to wing it. All book credit still goes to Michael Scott.

Then

Chapter 6

Legendary

"But he is arrogant. And now he has the Codex. Not all of it, though." He pulled out the remaining two pages, the ones Josh held onto when Dee ripped the book out of his hands. Flamel went to hand them to Hekate, who immediately backed up, shielding her eyes, and a strange hissing noise escaping her lips. In the same instant, the Torc Allta were around Flamel, crowding him, baring their tusks, deadly against his skin.

At that same moment, I was outside the car, bow ready and arrow already poised to loose.

"Put that abomination of Abraham's away!" Hekate ordered. Flamel backed off, smile fading from his lips. The goddess uncovered her eyes and glared at Nicholas, then noticed me and smirked. Her change in focus made Nicholas turn to face me as well.

"Scatty, put the weapons away, "Flamel said, "I am trying to give the impression of a nice visitor…"

"Ah, Scathach. So nice of you to join us," Hekate interrupted. "But do you really think you might be able to harm me with your toys? You are foolish to even belive that I have no chance to a stick and a string."

I nodded toward the Torc Allta, who were still swarming my good friend.. "Call them off, and I'll lower my aim." She just laughed.

"Never. Not until you and your unwelcome guests leave."

"Then, as I recall, these arrows are dipped in the blood of the titans. Your parent's, in fact. One of the only ways left to kill you, I am told."

"Ladies! Can't you just call it a truce?" Nicholas said.

"Nick, she locked me in the underworld for 20 years! I…"

"For this visit, Flamel, for this visit and for you. But if she steps out of line…"

"Don't worry, she won't. Will you Scathach?" Nick inquired.

"No." I gave up with a huge sigh.

"Wonderful." Hekate continued on and spoke some rambling language to call of her mutations. The language of Danu Talis, I think. I never got to learn it myself. Nicholas nodded in thanks and relief.

"I have something to discuss with you, Madame, concerning the twins. I believe they are the twins of legend, and I would like you to awaken them." Nicholas said.

"What twins? The ones in the backseat of your car?" Flamel nodded in agreement.

"They have an unnaturally strong auras for modern teenagers."

"Step out of the car." She barked.

Sophie and Josh glanced at Nicholas, who nodded. They both cautiously got out of the vehicle and on Flamel's beckoning, stepped closer to the goddess. She walked up to them and stared into their eyes.

"Give me your right hands." Sophie obeyed immediately, but Josh had to have reassurance from Flamel.

"Close your eyes." They did and the goddess inhaled deeply. I did too, and got a wiff of orange and vanilla. The scents were gradually getting stronger, and the twins began to glow. Josh glowed a lustrous gold that wrapped around him like a large woolen blanket, completely obstructing him from view. The blanket settled into a golden suit of armor that was hard to look at, because it was effectively reflecting the sun's light, not to mention giving off its own powerful light as well.

Sophie shone silver, with an aura that had veins of light pulsing and also settling into a more feminine suit of armor. It looked incredibly solid, but I knew that it was feather light. Both of their eyes turned into their corresponding, reflective colors, looking more like large coins than eyes. Hekate released their hands.

"They are indeed powerful twins. Probably the twins of legend, with such powerful pure silver and gold auras, but there is a good chance your suspicions are completely, undeniably wrong. It is a dangerous accusation."

"I know, and I have been wrong before. But this is a belief that I am willing to take the chances to believe in."

What do you think? Sorry its so short. Next chapter will probably be Scathach's experience in the underworld.
