Hey people, back with the second chapter of Harry Potter and the Light of Ra. To answer the question about the Greek and Egyptian Gods, I know that. Unfortunately I don't have my W.History book with me so I can see which came first (Though we already covered them, my mind is fuddled with CBS[Christmas Break Syndrome]) Besides, I'm including all gods that I know about; Greek and the major Egyptian Gods, Osiris, Horus, Ra, Isis, Seth, Anubis, Hathor and any others I can research about. School starts again soon, so it won't be long. Now that I answered that, on with the story.

Chapter 2: Meet the Family
Harry gawked at the majestic figures before him. The man radiated a warm white aura and wore a white tunic. His complexion was flawless and tanned just in the slightest. His build was that of an Olympic athlete and he had tousled brown-blonde hair with piercing green eyes like Harry. The woman had a calm air about her and had brownish red hair. She had serene blue eyes and wore a white tunic style dress, like in Ancient Greece. Her skin glowed a slight ivory blue and had a blue owl perched on her shoulder. Harry took a step back from the sheer power they emanated.
"You must be Harry. I must say that all these magical wards around you do make it hard to find you." The man spoke. "I am Apollo, your Grandfather. Sorry that Lily couldn't make it, she and Ares are sparring yet again." Apollo's voice was light like the sun.
"My mum's alive?" Harry asked numbly.
The woman rolled her eyes. "Ofcourse she's alive, Lily is a Goddess after all. I am Athena, your real Grandmother." Her voice was a bit on the deep end and held the appearance that she knew more than what she was saying. "And before you ask, yes, your father is alive, too. He and Eros get into enough trouble when they team up with Thalia. The Trio of Terror, as I like to call them."
"We came here tonight to take you back to Olympus, teach you some control over your powers, feed you ambrosia, that sort of gig. We'll gather up your stuff and head on out of here."
"Why must you always rush things, Phoebus? We have another matter to discuss with the boy."
"Sorry, forgot about that tiny detail."
"Harry, you know of the Egyptian Gods, right?"
"Yeah," he answered uneasily.
"They are our cousins and did something very stupid and unwise, Ra, Helios's counterpart, left behind a part of his power here in England where he thought no one would be able to find it. The Dark Lord Voldemort is searching for it and, according to Ra, is close to findng it. The other Gods and I have deemed it the Light of Ra. Harry, once we train your powers, you must find it. If Voldemort gets his hands on it, the result will be disastrous. With the Light, he can do anything with a mere thought. Though you will soon be immortal, he can kill you once he gets the Light. Do you understand?"
"Yea, I've been through this before when I was eleven with the Sorcerer's Stone and Quirrel."
"You were quite amazing back then, maybe your power is Good Luck?" Apollo quipped.
Athena rolled her eyes and hit him upside the head. "Honestly! To think I was ever attracted to you."
Apollo grinned cheekily. "That's because I'm too irresitable."
"You've been around James too much. If I didn't know better, I'd say you were a part of the Marauders Olympus."
"Me?" The Light god asked innocently. "I would never!"
Athena rolled her eyes again. "You have DEFINETLY been spending too much time around James. How Lily stands his idiocy is beyond me."
"Excuse me." Harry interrupted the arguing deities. "I think we should get going it's almost time for the Dursleys to wake up."
Apollo and Athena looked out the window and the sky was already tinging pink, purple, and blue. "Hmm, maybe we should stay and meet th family that took Harry in. What do you think, love?" Apollo asked eyeing Athena mischieviously.
"Oh fine. Don't blame me when Father yells at you for being late."
"Dad ain't gonna blow his top, not in front of Harry, at least. After all, he's his only Great-grandson."
"Can we get packing? I don't need Uncle Vernon yelling at me."
"If he does, Athe here can shove a lightning bolt up his rear." Earn disapproving glare from lover. "Or she can just berate him back." Earn satified smirk from said female.
"I take it you're the nonviolent type?" Harry asked Athena.
"Correct, as to your packing," she snapped her fingers, "all done." Harry's homework was neatly piled in his trunk, same with his school robes and books. His wand was placed on the lid of the trunk.
"Wicked. Can I do that, too?"
"Once you hone your powers you will be able to do almost anything you wish. First rule of being a god, you must never use your powers for personal gain. Aphrodite did that and caused Adonis's death. Rule No. 2: Never take a mortal life without just cause. You may punish them, but you CANNOT kill them. Those are basically the only rules you will ever need to know." Apollo answered legnthily.
"Now that that is settled, let's go meet the family." He quipped and earned an eye roll from Athena. The sun was approximately one thumb legnth in the sky.
"BOY! Get down here and cook me my breakfast!" Vernon roared from the kitchen.
Athena's eyes hardened. "Nobody, and I repeat, nobody uses MY grandson as a slave! It was bad enough with the Greeks." She fumed and marched her way to the stairs.
Apollo paled and dragged Harry along. "When Athe gets mad, she gets Olympus-sized mad. And you don't wanna be on the recieving end. Athe, please don't hurt them too much! Slavery isn't a just enough cause!"
Athena was already at the kitchen door and was contemplating on blowing it up or not. She settled on the latter and pushed the door open, startling the family within. Vernon's face went purple with rage at seeing her odd dress and glowing skin.
"OUT OF MY HOUSE, YOU FREAK!!!" His spit was flying everywhere, talk about gross and unsanitary.
"Hold your tongue, mortal! You have no right to speak to me that way."
"Athe! Calm down, please! I'm begging you!" Apollo was clinging to the lower portion of her dress. It would have been a comical sight if not for the seriousness of the situation.
"Grandmother, please calm down. You said you were the nonviolent type!" Harry tried to reason. Luckily, it worked.
Athena blinked and brought her anger down to a managable level. "I may have to spar with Ares once Lily's done with him." She muttered. "Sorry to interrupt your morning, but I don't like people who treat my grandson as a slave. Apollo, get up, you're a god for Zues's sake." Apollo blushed lightly and scrambled up, using Athena as a pole. "APOLLO! Not in front of others!"
The God of Truth grinned, "What can I say, you're irresistable, too."
"Sometimes I curse you for being the God of Truth."
"WHAT IS GOING ON HERE? THIS IS MY HOUSE I DEMAND THAT YOU LEAVE!"
"Oh, shut up!" The three gods/goddess shouted and snapped their fingers. Vernon tried to yell at them, key word being TRIED. He looked like a gaping purple fish. Athena and Apollo looked at each other then at Harry.
"Cool, I didn't think he'd actually shut up. You guys didn't do anythig, right."
"No. Congrats, Harry, you just passed Test No. 1: Concentrate On What You Want." Apollo quipped.
"Wicked!"
"Don't get any ideas, mister. You still have two more tests." Athena scolded.
Harry groaned. "Not another Tri-Wizard tournament deal!"
"Yes, there are three tasks and you completed one. On your first day, too. Lily will be pleased. Let's get going, there's something we have to attend to on Olympus." Apollo snapped his fingers and Harry's trunk was infront of them. "We're homeward bound." He whistled and a flaming horse instantly appeared. "Since you can't teleport yet, you get to ride Sol. See ya soon, Harry." The two full gods each grabbed an end of the trunk and were gone the same way they came.
"Here goes nothing." Harry leapt into the saddle, surprisingly unhurt. The boy and horse were gone in a circle of non-existant flames (illusion of fire to hide the actual teleport).
@@@@@@@@@
How was that? Good right?
Harry: I s'pose it was okay. YES!! I'm FINALLY away from the Dursleys! WAHOO!! *Dances around hyperly* What happens next?
Wait 'til I type another chapter tomorrow.
Harry: Is Olympus neat looking?
You'll have to wait. If you ever saw the cartoon movie "Hercules" it'll look like that. Though the details are kinda hazy to me, I'll have to watch it later.
Harry: Sorry, but the Dursleys never let me watch TV or take me to the movies.
*shakes head sadly* You poor deprived child. I feel sorry for you.
Harry: In "Brother, My Brother", who will I get paired with?
Sorry, but I'll give you this hint. B/R Bl/B happy?
Harry: *glares* No, I was thinking of a more direct answer. I wanna be with Ginny.
She's taken by Gold.
Harry: Then who's June? Do I know her?
Oops! We're all out of time. I don't own any of the characters, they all belong to J.K Rowling, the Ancient Greeks, or the Ancient Egyptians. Ja
Harry: C'mon! Please?!
No.
