Hello! Sorry this chapter isn't that good, and yes, I know they finished building the Eiffel tower in 1889 or something, but I can hardly keep Venus in the past for three years, can I? So the Eiffel tower is built in a day. It still remains one of the many mysteries in my head. And now... on with the story!
The last few days had been great. I loved Paris! I was almost sorry to leave it behind, but I had to go back to my own time. Back to the cute, innocent, loving, caring and funny Alex. Back to the fiery, strongwilled, loyal and determined Amber. Back to the mysterious and handsome Evandro, who I could tell like totally had a crush on Amber, which was mutual. Hey, they don't call my mum the godess of love for nothing!
Anyway, the point was, I had to go back, however much I wanted to stay.
Today, the Eiffel Tower would be built (A.N. If you haven't read the bit at the beggining, read it!) and I would go home. As in, back to some damp, uncomfortable meadow I'd never see in my life, but home.
"Claire, chérie! It is ready! Come, we must unveil the wonder!" said Gustave Eiffeil from the bottom of the staircase.
I was lucky, I would be the first to climb to the top. This actually made me quite nervous, because it probably wasn't safe.
I ran down the stairs and out of the door, where Gustave Eiffel was waiting.
"Ah, there you are. Why, you are in your best dress, wonderful! Come, let's go!"
We went through the small roads and finally arrived in the Champ de Mars. The sky was stormy, which didn't exactly reassure me, because if some lighting struck the tower, I would probably get electrocuted, so I'm going to say it now. "Hello world, nice knowing you!"
I started climbing the makeshift staircase. Luckily I'm not afraid of heights.
After what seemed an eternity I finally arrived on top and saw... Paris. Wow. I stayed there, speechless for like five minutes, when I noticed a godly presence.
"Hello, young demigod, what is your business on Olympus?"
I turned around and saw my mother, the 1889 version. Ok, I'm glad the fashion changed since then!
"Hello divine Aphrodite, I have come for an urgent audience with Zeus, king of gods." I said. Gods love flattery you know? Like being called divine.
"Oh, well, I suppose I can make an exception for such a lovely daughter of mine. Although I can't think who your father is! Please tell me."
"Oh, I... well, I'll tell you after th audience ok?"
"What does ok mean?"
I decided to let that one drop and I just went into the Olympus. Aphrodite followed. Olympus looked just as it had (or should I say will) when I went there last winter. I walked down the path towards the throne room as Aphrodite did the travel-faster-than-light-to-the-Olympus-thingy.
When I walked in, all the gods were sitting on their thrones.
Zeus was wearing a sky blue toga and an olive tree laurel. I don't blame him, crowns are really heavy. Poseidon sat next to him, with Hera on the other side. All the gods were in their normal height (about 10 meters), and they all radiated power. I stood there in awe for a few seconds.
"Hello mortal. Apparently you have some urgent news for us." said Zeus, waking me up from my daydream.
"Well, Lord Zeus, it's actually more of an urgent request. You see, I kind of come from the future and need to get back to my quest, into my time, so could you maybe send me back?"
"Interesting... if we grand you this request, what would you do in return for us?" asked Apollo.
I mentally jumped for joy. They were actually considering my request!
"I will... recite the Mysterious Ticking Noise from Potter Puppet Pals for you!" I bargained.
"Potter Puppet Pals. What is that?"
"It's a magical show from a place in the future called Youtube." I said.
"We accept your request, mortal."
(A.N. All rights to this song belong to the guy on youtube who wrote it.)
"Great! You can each have a part! Lord Zeus, you can Harry Potter, Lord Poseidon, you can be Ron Weasley. Lady Hera, you can be Hermione, while Mr Dionysus can be Voldemort. And Dumbledore could be Apollo.
Now, I want you to each repeat your assigned name at your chosen rythm. Can you send me home now?" I said. I couldn't believe how easy it had been to convince them.
"Of course. Hestia, please do your thing."
Lady Hestia made a strange gesture and suddenly everything started spinning.
I was in a meadow. Amber and Eduro were sitting by the river, talking.
I only saw Alex when he yelled "Venus! You're here!" He caught me in a bear hug, which I returned.
But then "ROOAAAAAAR!"
