Custard: ¬.¬ quit poking me, HEY! Ok, OK! I'll tell them, god moony.
Eh, hi peeps…um…I may have got my dogs name wrong at first…it is Cerepheus…sorry! *Folds arms grumpily*
Moony: ^_^ hehe, the great Custard Cat got it wrong!! HA!
Custard: ¬.¬ QUIET! *Hits moony with wet kipper* I'M TRYING TO WRITE THE NEXT CHAPTER! FOOLISH MORTAL, YOU WILL SEE! IT'S MY TURN NOW!!
Chapter .3. No party is a party without the booze!
Zeus tapped his fingers impatiently. All was quiet. He shifted on his throne, trying to get comfortable. He was SO bored! Bored, bored, BORED! He was the lord of all gods for crying out loud; there must be SOMETHING he could do! He should be throwing wild parties with loads of single women and vodka. But NO, Hera had to put a stop to all that. She ruled him, she really did!
And Hercules, his only son, was stuck as a mortal on earth, hardly able to come to a party. Nor Hades, his only brother, who was still trying to get soul slime off his robes.
Zeus sighed a half-hearty, bored sigh that showed his mood. There must be something, there had to be.
He sighed again and a thought came floating through his puny mind. An idea that was really extraordinary, for him that is! Why couldn't he throw a party? All he had to do was send his wife to fetch some supplies from the local market and it was time to bring in the Nymphs! Yes, this plan COULD NOT fail!
"Hera, my lushes one!" Zeus called up the cloud nine stairway.
"Yes," called back Hera, only half listening, "What is it?"
"Oh…" Zeus carried on through mouthfuls of whatever was in the fridge, "We just need…*gulping down the milk*…a few things…" He quickly finished of the rest of the extra strong Stilton, cleared away the evidence and checked to see if he had left anything.
"Oh," just as Zeus was closing the fridge, Hera came down looking curious, "I best go to the market then, eh?"
"Yea, that would help love!" Zeus nodded encouragingly, holding the fridge closed.
Hera stilled looked suspicious, put she got her cloak and her basket and said; "I'll just get a bit of everything shall I?"
"Yea!"
Then she was gone. Zeus sighed again but this time a sigh of relief and satisfaction.
He went to the phone and dialled the number. "Hermes, Gather the guys and bring the BOOZE!" he yelled excitedly down the phone.

"Why do I have to wear the dress?" moaned Custard.
"Because the plan says that one of us has to wear a dress." Said Moony simply, ajusting the flowing autumn coloured dress with small pins.
"Let me rephrase the question for you; Why do I have to wear the dress?"
"For 1) because you are half nymph, you have the mystical powers that attract men, 2) I don't want to prance around in a dress in front of drunk and disorderly men, and 3) 'Cause I said so!"
Custard cursed under her breath and wished Moony hadn't confiscated her axe and exicutioners mask. She could have just waltzed into the party, chopped all the party-goers heads off and been done with it. No faffing around in girlie dresses.
She stared grumpily in the mirror, the reflection showing a small and imp like figure in a slender silk dress with a cut reaching up to the right thigh and and a strap tying the dress around her neck.
She had to admit it was beautiful, in a girlie, prom kinda way.
Her hair had been styled, by moony of course, in an elf-like style (two plats on each side, at the front, joining at the back, if ya didn't know!) and it cascaded down her back like a waterfall of…well…pink!
"Right, off you go, I need to go and sort out the trap for Mr. 'high and mighty, zeusy-wosey'!" Moony got to her feet and started to push Custard towards the house.
"Did ya get the trap set for Hercules? Because I don't want to flirt with him and have no place to go…"
"Yes, yes, yes, it's all set. Just GO already!" said Moony impatiently.
"Have you tested it?"
"YES, JUST GO!"
"How abou-"
"GO!" And with one final shove, Moony pushed Custard through the bush.

"WHAT! THERE'S NO BOOZE?!" Zeus threw a tantrum on the floor with wild sobs. Hermes simply looked at him as if he were possessed.
"No…I'm…very sorry!" Hermes whimpered, "I will try and get some…but a think there's something you …um…won't like either…"
"What?" said Zeus between sobs.
"There's no…women either…"
Zeus wailed so loudly the mountains shook.
(Farmer: (in really country accent) was that an earthquake?
Milkmaid: Nope, Zeus is having ANOTHER tantrum!
Farmer: How do YOU know?
Milkmaid: (smiles craftily) The Nymphs are still in the woods!
Farmer: Ohhhhhhhhhhh!
Milkmaid: NOOO! (Chases runaway cow) Come back daisy!)
Hercules rolled his eyes as his father continued to sulk on the floor. He wasn't particularly bothered about there being no women OR drink. He had just come here to keep his dad happy.
He sighed and walked into the gardens at the peek of the mountain. It was quiet here and he thought I don't need any more girls, I have Meg!
But his thoughts were interrupted by a young girl who was sitting on a stone bench, letting butterflies land on her fingertips and birds fly around her. She giggled and looked up at Hercules. He was stunned. She was a Nymph, that he could tell. She had flowing pink hair and bright yellow eyes. She giggled again and got up. Oh god! She's coming towards me…thought Hercules desperately, ok…just act cool!
The young girl was standing in front of him now, stroking the hair from his eyes and smiling. He gulped. She was so gentle. But then she turned and started to walk away, autumn dress blowing gently in the wind, showing her pearly white thigh. She turned and beckoned him with a finger. He followed with no control over his legs and no thoughts in his mind, only of the beautiful Nymph.

Custard sighed. She had been waiting AGES and still no sign of Hercules. She shifted her position on the stone bench. God this was so UNCOMFORTABLE! Then she saw wonderboy coming her way. She smiled nastily and thought this is gonna be FUN! She quickly turned on all her nymph charm and played with the butterflies. Sure enough, he was stunned! Gobsmacked! COMPLETELY OUT OF HIS MIND! That Nymph charm sure worked a treat!
Soon she had him following her into the forest around the gardens. He followed her willing all the way to the place where the trap had been set. Custard gracefully stepped over it and sure enough Hercules followed, the ground collapsed and he lay unconcious in a large hole!

"Did ya get him?" Asked Custard as Moony flittered in.
"Yep, he's lying in the cellar with Hercules." Smiled Moony evilly, brushing her dark hair with her fingers.
"So, um, how'd ya get him?"
"With these…" Moony replied, holding up a crate of beer, "in one of those looped ropes on a tree!"
Both girls laughed hysterically.
Custard: I suppose you have realised what we are doing-
Moony: (interrupts) we do a chapter each. Custard started and it's my turn nex- OWWW! (Rubs face where the large fish hit her.)
Custard: I WAS TELLING THEM! *Hits moony with wet Kipper* IT IS MY CHAPTER YA KNOW!
Moony: s-s-s-sorry!
Custard: REVIEW YOU PUNY MORTALS!!
