I kept meaning to write this a while ago and it just didn't happen so I apologize to those who still are reading this. I'm finally getting my life back in order so my updates should be getting better. Enjoy 3


"So that's why I've been a little… skittish around Henry lately." Theresa concluded, having finally told the others about her vision – with Jay sitting by her side for comfort the entire time. The heroes had taken similar places on the couch as they had the night before but they managed to all fit on the couches Herry, Atlanta and Archie on one couch, Jay, Theresa and Neil on the other while Oddie sat on the arm of the couch between them. "I didn't know what to make of the vision at first but now…"

"Now that Hera has confirmed our suspicions," Jay continued.

"Hercules might be in trouble." Herry suddenly stood from the couch with determination, causing Atlanta to practically jump into Archie's lap with a blush from the couple and a snicker from everyone else. Atlanta quickly scooted off of Archie's thigh and farther apart than before and cleared her throat in an obvious attempt to change the subject.

"So we should probably go and talk to him." Archie suggested quickly.

"Right." Atlanta nodded her head.

Jay smirked for a second before he switched into leader mode and stood with Theresa. "The lovebirds are right" two pairs of eyes bulged at the nickname "we should go and talk to Hercules; see what he can tell us about Megara."

"I don't know what I can tell you guys." Hercules, clad in his usual white wife beater and stripped boxers, rubbed the sleep from his eyes as he and heroes sat under the statue of Zeus "I don't remember that night at all. I remember feeling dark and angry but I only remember having a headache and opening my eyes a day later to find my-" He paused for a moment but his demeanour didn't falter "my wife and children dead on the floor and everyone blaming me." The demi-god shook his head and continued. "I found out later what Hera had done to me and at the time I was very angry with her. But now I hold no grudge. After Meg and the kids' deaths I met a wonderful woman and we were very happy together."

"Didn't she kill you?" Archie asked in all honesty – sort of teasing – curiosity.

"Well she didn't mean to." Hercules stumbled slightly with his words but he gathered himself once again. "The point is; although I physically moved on, there isn't a day that goes by that I don't think about Megara and I am very sorry for what happened to her." The ex-hero bowed his head in shame. It was clear to everyone that he was sincere in his sorrow and that he held nothing against the past. Theresa, in an act of pure comfort – reached out her hand to grab his.

Her eyes clouded over as she was filled with visions.

A woman in a long gray dress with hair so soft and wavy, the gods would have thought it to be made of silk, opened her dark brown eyes and lifted her lips in a smile that turned her eyes cold. With a sense of sinful pleasure, she lifted and readied her bow and arrow – crafted so carefully, Hephaestus would have been proud – with the skill of an expert marksman. She took aim and released in a single heartbeat. Her eyes followed the arrow until it struck the heart of the Queen of the gods and she continued to strike the God of War and the Goddess of Love and Beauty.

Theresa squeezed his hand so hard, even Hercules winced slightly as she came out of her vision in a panic. As her breathing slowed, her concerned boyfriend placed a hand on her shoulder.

"What did you see?" He asked calmly and quietly – very much not what his head was screaming at him at the moment. Theresa blinked slowly for a few more moments before she looked up at Hercules.

"Your ex-wife, killing all of the gods." The entire room sat up in attention with wide-eyed, disbelieving expressions.

"That's impossible." Hercules suddenly growled. "My Megara would never hurt another soul."

"Did she have long brown hair and wear a grey dress?" His eyes widened in disbelief.

"She died in a grey wrap dress." He whispered, shaking his head. "I just don't understand why she would do this." He cried to the heavens – which, in reality, made no sense.

"Regardless of why she's doing this," Jay spoke as he stood "we need to protect the gods. Theresa" he looked to his girlfriend with a serious business-like expression "do you know when Megara is supposed to come?" Theresa thought for a moment before shaking her head.

"It was at the school and it was dark; that's all I know."

"Then we'll just have to spend the next few nights here until we stop her. We must protect the gods." With nods of agreeance, the heroes waited for further instruction. "I suggest we split off into pairs and guard the gods from all angles. Oddie and Neil, you take the West Wing; Archie and Atlanta, you take the Main Entrance; Theresa and I will take the East Wing. Herry, can you stay here with Hercules and learn as much as you can about Megara. There has to be a reason she is doing this all of a sudden.

"I can tell you why she's doing this now." The demi-god snorted. "Thursday will be the anniversary of her death." Herry nodded slowly. Apparently, there was a lot that he didn't know about his ancestors.


In the next chapter, people are going to be having little heart to hearts. Stay tuned.
