Author's note: Nothing new, but thanks for waiting as always!

"Hey, wake up!"

Patroklos had been fast asleep before those words rung into his ears, before opening his eyes. He yawned briefly before seeing that it was Lydia, lying next to him.

"Oh, Lydia..."

The British girl grinned, before she claimed his lips in a brief kiss. "So how'd you sleep last night?" she asked.

"Pretty well, I'll admit." he said.

Lydia smiled, as did Patroklos, before she added, "I guess we got a few more days to prepare ourselves for what lies ahead, right?"

"Right."

"So, what are you waiting for? Let's get moving! Don't want to miss out on breakfast, do we?"

As she said those words, she quickly got out of bed, and went to put her clothes back on. Realizing that both were naked, the Greek youth took her words to heart and redressed alongside her.

Meanwhile, back in Lasberg, while Patroklos and Lydia were out, Pyrrha gazed into her reflection in a large mirror in Hilde's quarters. She sighed as she closed her eyes, before she said, "I'm not sure if I'll ever regain my normal self after all this."

"I know you still got it; even with your new appearance, I'm certain you'll redeem yourself." the red-haired woman told her.

The Greek girl's eyes widened a bit in surprise. "You...You think so?"

"Yes, a hundred percent."

Hilde's words of encouragement were enough for Pyrrha to smile, before she said, "Okay. I'll try and do my best sparring, allright?"

She smiled back, and before long, they left the room together for the courtyard.

When Pyrrha got to the courtyard some time later, she was greeted by Z.W.E.I., Viola, Greed and Malice. "Gettin' better, lately?" the blond asked.

"I think so. Well, I think it's about time I have a friendly match against you." she replied, looking over at the silver-haired man.

"Don't mind if I do."

As he brandished Kreuzgriff, he added, "Come on out, E.I.N."

The moment he would soon bring out E.I.N., this prompted Pyrrha to almost flinch. Thankfully, she did recall seeing him in battle a few times, so she quickly kept her cool.

And with that, Z.W.E.I. charged for her, attacking her with a few slashes. The final hit meant for her was blocked, fortunately for her.

Despite the fact that she would wield Soul Edge thanks to Nightmare and Tira, she'd wound up using it for the greater of good. Since agreeing to help her brother, the MHN, and even Schwarzwind, she had hoped to redeem herself.

Pyrrha performed a few kicks on the silver-haired man, before deciding to follow things up. She lunged and struck him several times with her sword, before he parried her.

"Guess you don't wanna be a spoiled brat anymore, don't you? Besides, you really are starting to act like the Pyrrha that her brother knows and loves." Z.W.E.I. asked.

"I am!"

The Greek girl took some damage from some slashes from his blade, before evading him. From there, she figuratively tore through him, with her hits even breaking some of his armor.

"This girl is nuts!" Malice exclaimed, to which Viola nodded, as they and Greed watched the fight.

Pyrrha growled, indicative of her Critical Edge, to which she would successfully carry out. Once it was done, Z.W.E.I. crashed to the ground.

"Holy shit, she really did train under Nightmare!" Greed added.

It wasn't long for Viola to run over to Z.W.E.I., asking with a look of worry, "Are you allright?"

"Yeah, I-I think so. Seriously, I have to agree with what Greed said."

As he was helped up, Z.W.E.I. noticed Pyrrha on her knees, panting. "You okay there?" he inquired.

"Y-Yes."

Pyrrha raised her head and managed a weak but warm smile, and that was enough to make him and Viola smile back. "Then I think it's about time you get back at that bastard for turning you into what he envisioned as a so-called 'successor'." he told her.

At the same time, Viola had also brought the Greek girl back to her feet. "Now that I think about it, I think I should see my crystal ball and find out if Pyrrha's moon remains red, even if she's here."

With that, the white-haired girl brought in Quattuor Orbi. Before long, she gazed into it, hoping that Pyrrha's moon has changed or not.

At first, she was crestfallen when the moon in question was still red. However, it slowly began to develop a faint shade of blue, and her mood brightened a bit.

"I believe redemption is in the cards for you, Pyrrha." she said to her.

Pyrrha nodded, before adding, "And when Patroklos and Lydia return from Greece, I'll tell them the news."

A few days later...

Lydia couldn't help but be impressed at the flavor of the moussaka she and Patroklos were having for dinner, and looked over at him. "Didn't expect the food here to be pretty tasty." she said. "But then again, I'd been eating stuff like this for the past couple of days."

He nodded, and after some more bites, he heard her ask, "Would you mind if you hear me out?"

"Of course not. Why?"

"I was just wondering if gods can get it on in human form, like Freyja did during the dance. At least, that's what Marie told me about. Speaking of which, has Athena ever did anything naughty before?"

Patroklos's eyes widened a bit in surprise, and a light flush decorated his cheeks. "Uh, no...she never has. She had always been pure through and through, unlike her brother, who's been putting the moves on Aphrodite since...whenever." he replied.

"Is that so?" Lydia asked, raising an eyebrow. "Perhaps I might be the one to lecture her on all things sexual. What do you think?"

"Well, I should ask her first, and if she's willing to do it, it's settled." he said.

"Jolly good!"

Once dinner had ended, Lydia began to look for Athena. Lucky for her, she had entered the library and discovered the goddess of wisdom reading some books.

"We got so much in common, don't we?" she asked.

This prompted the brown-haired goddess to turn her head to see Lydia, noticing her enter the room almost instantly. "Lydia? What brings you here?"

"First of all, sorry for referring to you as a tart." Lydia said.

"Oh, you wish to apologize for name-calling me? Well, it's not easy to be forgiven quickly, but I do accept your apology." Athena told her.

Lydia nodded, before approaching the brown-haired goddess. "Great! And now, the fun part: I was thinking about giving you a lesson or two on sexual gratification. In other words, sleep with me."

The British girl's assertive request prompted Athena to blush very brightly, biting her lower lip briefly. She then let out a long sigh, before she said, "As long as I keep my virginity, so be it."

"Very good. So, come on over to the bedroom, and let's get started."

When the burgundy-haired girl made a 'come hither' gesture, Athena was still flushed. However, she maintained her overall calmness as she followed her lead.

"Are you really that good of a flirt?"

As Athena asked such a question, she and Lydia entered the room. The British girl grinned, before replying, "Always had and always will."

"But what of Patroklos? Are you sure you both still have feelings for each other?"

"We're still an item; it's just that I want to give you a good time tonight." Lydia said.

The brunette goddess nodded, before both women's lips touched each other's. This prompted Athena to tremble in fear at first, but luckily, she was able to calm down so as to try and get used.

Their kissing was gentle, sweet and a little passionate. As Lydia wrapped her arms around her, her tongue began to slowly sneak into her mouth.

Athena began removing her white armor, revealing her plain yet feminine clothing. She saw as Lydia's lips moved to her neck, briefly sucking the area and going downwards.

Lydia grinned as she raised up the goddess's skirt, unveiling her undies. She slid them down, revealing her twat in plain sight before undressing herself, leaving her naked.

"L-Lydia..." she heard her mutter under her breath.

The burgundy-haired girl eagerly sunk her tongue into her, prompting her to gasp and moan. "Tonight's the last night that Patroklos and I will be here, so I want this to end with a bang." she said with a grin.

Athena's flush grew brighter, slowly closing her eyes whilst bucking her hips. Around the same time, Lydia was unaware of the door opening and closing, and then sounds of clothing removed.

Patroklos, who was now bare naked, spread her buttcheeks open. He began to hungrily taste her, looking up at her with a smile.

"Surprised to see me?" he asked.

"Oh, god, Patroklos!" Lydia exclaimed. "You obviously wanted to...join in, right?" she asked between moans.

The Greek youth smiled with just a nod, before he continued tasting her snatch. The British girl would also do the same with Athena, looking up and asking, "So, are you enjoying yourself with another woman?"

"I-I am..." was Athena's breathy reply.

It was clear that she was growing wetter with every lash of Lydia's tongue, as she ran her fingers through her hair. Her eyes started widening as Lydia's tongue was replaced by her fingers, and her cries and moans began to escalate.

Of course, the burgundy-haired girl was just as wet with desire thanks to Patroklos using his tongue and even his fingers to stimulate her. She bit her lower lip as she moaned his name, hoping to join Athena in simultaneous bliss.

"Lydia, by the gods!"

Athena would soon reach her crescendo, gushing like never before. Lydia lapped her honey up, though she would also feel the urge to climax.

With Patroklos's digits speeding up, this prompted her to cry out. As the British girl let herself go, his tongue delved into her again, this time tasting her juices.

She smiled as she indulged in Athena's sweetness, before turning her head to see the blond youth. "Well, what are you waiting for?" she asked.

Patroklos nodded, before he sunk his length into her. Athena, on the other hand, had chosen to redress before saying to Lydia, "Thank you for that...stimulating event."

The burgundy-haired girl was about to speak, but shuddered once she felt herself full. She had enjoyed his girth and size, to the point that she would continue praising him and demanding another round before sleep.

Regardless, Athena dissolved, leaving Patroklos and Lydia alone together. "Fuck me!" she managed to call out to him, balling the sheets with both hands.

He was happy to oblige, his hands placing themselves onto her buttocks. He pumped into her, leaning down to breath hard against her neck.

"Lydia..." he whispered.

The British girl held onto his head with one hand, briefly kissing him. Her tongue started dueling with his in a passionate pace, with both her moans and his grunts muffled.

His lips went lower, gently nibbling and sucking the skin of her shoulders. Lydia enjoyed having 'reminders' plastered all over her skin every morning, and tonight was no exception.

Eventually, Patroklos's movements quickened. As he thrust harder, he heard Lydia's cries and moans becoming more intense and more louder.

"Go ahead...empty it all inside me, you stud!" he heard her call out.

And with that, he grit his teeth whilst expressing into her. Her tongue stuck out as her eyes fluttered to a close, soon feeling the urge to follow suit as her muscles convulsed like crazy.

Patroklos fell onto Lydia, but made sure not to crush her with his weight. He looked over at her with a fairly seductive grin, and she couldn't help but flash him a similar one.

"Oh, speak of the devil..." he muttered.

Lydia wordlessly kissed him, holding one of his hands with hers. Of course, tonight would also be the last night they would spend in Greece, before returning to Lasberg...
