I am so sorry I have not updated in a while. I have been sick and with school and all. I have been really busy.

I would like to thank my very first reviewer, PadFootCc. Let's just say Kiara is going to meet a lot of people on this life journey. ^_^

Chapter 1: Help

A tall, well muscled half god along with a short, but cute, curly blonde haired man were walking to Argos for the Summer Solstice festival.

Along the way they got attacked by thieves and decided to split up, so they can chase the thieves. While the curly blonde haired man, Iolaus, ran off after the thief through the forest, Hercules, the tall, well muscled half god beat up his prey (the thief) and decided to walk to Argos alone and wait for Iolaus.

While walking, something told him to turn around. When he did what he saw shocked him. In front of him was his father, Zeus.

Since Hercules and his father never really got along, they cut right to the task in hand. "I need your help, son," Zeus announced.

"Why should I help you? When you never help me when I ask. Remember my family?" Hercules replied.

"I am sorry son, but you know Hera."

"Yeah, I know Hera. The Goddess who is a deceitful bit..."

"Don't talk about my wife and your step-mother like that!!!!"

"You know what I don't need this. Goodby Father!" Hercules said walking away.

"Hercules wait. I need your help!!"

"Why don't you call on one of your other children."

"Please Hercules." It was the 'please' that made Hercules stop. Never in his life has he heard his father say 'please' before.

"Please Hercules. It's your sister," Zeus practically begged, but didn't want to sound like he was.

Hercules turned around to face his father. "Aphrodite, what's wrong?"

"Not Aphrodite. Kiara."

"Who?"

"Kiara, my daughter, your sister."

"Since when do I have a sister named Kiara."

"She has been your sister for all her life. Twenty-five years. She was sort of like a secret. Nobody knew who she truly is except a few. Not even her."

"I don't understand."

"Sit down, my son, and I will explain. Twenty-five years ago, Kiara was born, she is whole god. I wanted to keep her and watch over her in Olympus, but when Hera found out..."

"She got mad," Hercules concluded.

"Yes, she didn't know about Kiara until after she was born and I wanted to keep her," Zeus sadly said.

"So what happened?" Hercules questioned.

"Well you know Hera, she got so mad at my decision, so she put a spell on Kiara to make her mortal until she was of right age. She is living with an old lady in Argos."

"Why didn't you bring her to me, to mother we could have taken care of her!!!" Hercules was mad. His sister, his own blood, maybe not all blood, but blood nonetheless, was punished for being born.

"I didn't want to bother your mother even more. She had you and your brother to take care of," Zeus said, tired of defending his decision.

Hercules finally gave up and asked, "So, what do you want me to do?"

"I need yo to bring her to Athens before the others get her."

"Others?"

"The other gods. If they find her they will corrupt her. Turn her to their side. Like..."

"Ares," Hercules hissed.

"Yes, even though he is my son I don't want Kiara to have him as a full time mentor. Kiara is special, she wants peace like you do."

Hercules nodded his head.

"But if you cross her, you better watch out," chuckled Zeus.

"So you want me to take her to Athens for..."

"For training, she already has some of her powers. She just need to know how to control and use them properly."

Hercules had a questioning face, "Why do you care? You never cared for any of your other children? Why care for her?"

At this statement, Zeus got infuriated. "THAT IS NOT TRUE!! I DO CARE ABOUT MY CHILDREN!!" He settled down, "Maybe to not the extent that a father should, but I do care." He paused. "I know I haven't been a great role model or a great father to you Hercules, but that is in the past. I want to make up for it and I don't want to make the same mistakes with Kiara like I did with you."

Hercules sat on a tree stump, head down contemplating his father's words. Somewhere deep down in his heart he loved his father even though Zeus and the other gods were always messing up his life.

"Alright, I'll help. She is my sister and I don't want Ares to poison her mind."

Zeus' face had a small smile upon it. "Thank you Hercules," and disappeared.

Hercules got up and started walking to Argos. "Well, look on the bright side, I have a new sister. I wonder what Kiara is like?" Hercules wondered.

A couple of yards behind him, a low voice could be heard. "Kiara? I have a sister I never knew about? Oh happy day! Poison her mind? I'll do more than that. Better be careful little brother, Kiara will soon be your worst nightmare."

A maniacal laughter could be heard that the animals could hear, but not Hercules.
