Chapter 13, Bonding
Dawn spit out the coke she was drinking. "You what?" Dawn asked.
"Your dad came and talked to me" Jack shrugged. "It's not really a big deal, is it?"
Dawn had been sitting by the pond, a sketch pad in her hand, attempting to draw the serenity of the pond when Jack had come over. Dawn had placed her sketch pad om the ground, and the two of them had begun talking when Jack revealed that piece of info.
"The Greek gods never take an interest in their children's affairs." Dawn insisted. "That's like, demigod lesson number 1, the Greek gods do not get involved with demigods-ever, unless it's to send them on a quest, or something." Dawn pursed his lips. "This is odd."
Jack mulled this over. Jack didn'ty personally see anything wrong or odd with this so instead he decided to change the subject. "You going to tell Jamie about any of this?" Jack asked. "Because he deserves to know"
"No chance in Hades" Dawn said with a glare. "Ask me again, you'll find out just how blinding sunlight can be - understood?"
Jack raised his hands and leaned backward. "Ok, miss sun goddess, yeesh."
Dawn punched Jack in the arm. "Don't call me that, some goddesses can get really testy when they're compared to mortals, or when mortals are compared to them."
Jack raised an eyebrow. "Over exaggeration much?"
Dawn shook her head. "Psyche was literally compared to a goddess, and Aphrodite nearly made her life a night mare."
Jack tilted his head. He vaguely remembered that story being told to him when he was still human, though the exact details where fuzzy. "Psyche…. The girl who married cupid?" He asked Dawn.
"Greeks call him Eros, but yeah" Dawn said with a shrug. "She got lucky."
Jack eyed her.
Dawn sighed. "You don't believe me, you think I'm being paranoid"
Jack bit his lip. "I… wouldn't… say… that" He said finally.
"Hera, Aphrodite, and Athena were in a contest to see who the most beautiful goddess was, the person who was judging, voted for Aphrodite, the other two, then proceeded, to make the prize for his decision the absolute worst thing ever"
"What was the prize?"
"The most beautiful girl in the world, who at the time was already married, to the king of Sparta, a war then broke out after her abduction, Athena and Hera were on the side of the Greeks, and Troy ended up getting obliterated."
Jack blinked.
"You mess with a god's pride you will get burned" Dawn said. "I'm not involving myself in that mess."
Jack just slowly nodded.
"Dawn!"
Dawn and Jack turned to see Jamie stalking toward them. His expression one filled with hurt and anger.
"Yes?" Dawn asked calmly, her fingers tapping gently against her thighs.
"Mom wants you inside" Jamie muttered irritably. "Lunch is almost ready"
Dawn sighed. "Yeah ok" She said standing. "See yeah Jack"
Jamie's eyes widened a little. "You can see him?"
Dawn chuckled and ruffled her little brother's hair. "My eye sight is much better then yours little brother."
Jamie scrunched up his hair, and ducked his head to avoid it getting mussed up further. "Don't call me that"
Dawn chuckled.
"By Jack" Jamie said. "I'll see you after lunch, mom said I could play outside then since my home work is done."
Jack ruffled Jamie's hair. "Can't wait."
Jamie and Dawn turned and ran back to the house.
