Chapter 9:
Marc lay beside Cleopatra and their two sleeping children as they sailed on Cleopatra's large boat to Alexandria. He was running away – well not exactly running away. He still planned on defeating his rival Octavion but he didn't need to be in Rome to do so. And with his pact with Cleopatra they could even one day mend relations between Egypt and Rome – they could create one nation that combined them both.
Cleopatra began to snore softly and he felt his children snuggling against his leg. He laughed at the site of the two of them with their mouths open and drool running over their chubby cheeks – they were his new family now. He grimaced when he thought of Octavia, Antonia Major and his unborn child. He knew he wasn't a good person and leaving them behind with only a few words was pretty low. But as he watched Lex, Leo and Cleopatra sleeping next to him he didn't regret his decision.
Marc saw a flash of light in their small room. He rose quickly to his feat – grabbing his coin. He flipped it and it turned into his sword.
"Lower your weapon boy," said a gruff voice.
Marc turned his sword back into its coin form and pocketed it. "Hello father."
Jupiter looked even more pissed than the last time Marc had seen him.
"What's the meaning of this?" Jupiter asked eyeing Cleopatra and his children in the bed.
Marc winced, "Let's talk about this somewhere else."
Jupiter glared and Marc felt his body being pulled and in the blink of an eye he was on the deck of the boat. Jupiter's long black hair whipped menacingly in the air. The sky which had been clear and sunny was now dark with threatening clouds forming around them.
AN:/ And for some reason the rest of this chapter was deleted…. :/And school is HARD, like VERY HARD. I don't even have time to read other stories on this site : - ( I'm almost finished with this story, it already ended in my head so I'm gonna try and write what I was thinking and post it in one huge chapter.
And as for where I've been, I was on vacation for all of summer and while there my laptop and ipod were stolen. And then school started and I got really busy. I just found this chapter on my main computer while trying to avoid studying.
