I've been in Florida again, sorry for the delay:
Tessa: I wanted it to be a girl as well. : )
InsaneFoxie: I hope this chapter isn't confusing, Meg still has her usual tactics from my earlier chapters, but I'm thinking that she maturing with new found responsibility.
Megara landed safely on the bank of the ocean, she held Cleantha tightly to her.
"Pegasus, can you tell Hercules, that he has been really sweet, and I'm thankful for everything he's done, but I'm a persistent danger to him, so I'm going to leave him alone." Said Megara running away. Pegasus tried to follow her but she quickly got lost in an upcoming crowd in the city.
Meg ran as far as she could go, without any money or food, and a baby in one arm she finally stopped and started to knock on people's houses for a place to stay.

Aeneas woke up to find all his guards' unconscious. He looked up, and saw Hercules with his sword in hand looking down at him.
"I'll make this simple. You leave Megara alone, and you leave unscratched." Said Hercules confidently. Aeneas looked around at his fallen guards, and then back at Hercules. He sighed deeply.
"Fine, I let her go, she's all yours." He said, and walked away to wake up his guards. Pegasus flew down to Hercules.
"Pegasus? Where's Megara? Don't tell me she left!" sad Hercules frantically. Pegasus nodded.
"Ok, come on we have to find her." He said and jumped on Pegasus' back and they both flew off to find Megara.
* * *
"Please! Just for the night, it's not for me, it's for my baby!" Megara begged. The women at the door glared down at her.
"Should have thought of that before, shouldn't you!" The woman yelled at Megara, and slammed her door. Cleantha stared crying. Megara rocked her as best she could.
"Calm down, don't worry, everything will turn out fine." She said as she walked into a forest where she saw some apple trees. She rested down by the tree, and tried to rock Cleantha to sleep.
* * *
"She really is good at running and hiding, isn't she?" Hercules asked Pegasus as they stopped by a fountain.
"Your looking for her too?" said Adonis' voice behind them. Hercules whirled around.
"You are not going anywhere near her!" shouted Hercules. Adonis smirked at him.
"I can look for her if I want, you can't stop me, Jerk-ules, we go to the same school, I know your friends, unless you want a miserable time, I can make it happen, as for Megara, why do you care so much for her anyway?" asked Adonis. Hercules shuffled his feet, he knew with every second he wasted, Meg was getting farther away.
"She needed help, and I'm a hero..... in training, and it's my duty to protect her." Said Hercules walking away. Adonis quickly followed him.
"I'm a prince, at the moment she's in my kingdom, therefore making her my subject, I want to protect her just like you do." Said Adonis. Hercules shook his head.
"My definition of taking care of her is different from your method. My method doesn't involve wine, besides Aeneas let her go, so your wasting your time trying to find her." Said Hercules, walking faster.
"Maybe I'm not trying to find her for Aeneas, maybe I'm just lonely up in my castle all day." Said Adonis.
"Does the fact that she has a kid mean anything to you?" shouted Hercules. Adonis shrugged.
"They grow up fast enough, besides, what kid wouldn't want to be a princess?" Asked Adonis. Hercules growled, hopped on Pegasus, and flew off.
"I'm taking you don't care" called Adonis after him. He smirked and continue to search for Megara.
* * *
Megara gathered all the apples she could carry. She knew that Cleantha need more food then she could give her at the moment, but she also knew she couldn't even give Cleantha to any of the villagers, if they turned her down for just asking to spend the night, then she knew they wouldn't even care for Cleantha, and they would let her die. So onward she would trudge, until she could find someone who could help her, without being a danger to them. She collapsed a few hours later, but held Cleantha close to her, who started crying again. She sang softly to her, which seemed to soothe the frighten baby. Megara sighed.
"You look like you need some wine" said a voice behind her. She blinked a few times, hopping her eyes were playing tricks on her.
"Adonis!" she yelped
