Aphrodite's Revenge
part 1
Zeus and the badly mis-shapen thunderbolt
***Olympus***
Zeus sat in his throne yelling at Eros for shooting one his blasted arrows at a mortal woman that he had been eyeing lately. The woman was now madly inlove with a sailor whom also loved her deeply.
Hermes then appeared and bowed deeply with a package in one arm. "Oh mighty Zeus, here is a gift for you" Hermes said walking past Eros as he quickly dissappeared to escape punishment.
Hermes handed the gift to the irratible god and took two steps back. "Who is this from?" Zeus asked as he began opening the present.
"It is a gift from Aphrodite my lord" Hermes said looking on in curiosity.
Zeus looked at the gift in his hands, looked up, glared once at Hermes, then looked back at the gift. He opened the box, and was suprised to see a thunderbolt. Why did she give me a thunderbolt? Zeus took the thunderbolt from the box and laughed when he saw its mishappen form.
"What is it?" Hermes asked squinting his eyes.
"A. . . thunderblot Hermes. A. . . badly. . . mishappen one at that." Zeus said as he held up said thunderbolt.
Hemes tilted his head to the side. It was indeed oddly, um, shaped. "Uh. . . it looks. . . interesting" Hermes said trying not to laugh and to keep his thoughts pure. Interesting, yes that was the only word he could think of to say.
Zeus threw the thunderbolt when it started to move in his hand. . . What in Tarturus???
The thunderbolt was now laying on the floor. . . twitching. That did it for Hermes. He could no longer supress his laughter.
"Me thinks the Goddess of Love is in a bad mood." Hermes said laughingly.
"Me thinks she's in a mood that we do not want to think about." Zeus said.
Hermes jumped away when the thunderbolt started moving toward him. Hermes began to back away from the thunderbolt and it started moving, um, crawling towards him.
He then jumped into the air and flew towards the other side of the chamber. The thunderbolt slowly but surely was making it's way across the room.
"Um, I think that Lord Hades is summoning me for an errand, my lord. I must go. Perhaps Aphrodite is unhappy, maybe you should go talk to her" said Hermes as he quickly dissappeared.
Zeus looked warily at the thunderbolt when it seemed to turn its attention on him. He backed up slowly...oh shit... he disapeared before the thunderbolt came at him... APHRODITE!!!!!!!
