These events are ones that happen here and there and don't really make a real story. (They are just little moments that involve Helen) and if you hadn't noticed Helen has super speed.
P.S. Please give a review
"Great job, Helen." Calls out Ares as he stands and watches Helen go through the exercises. "Okay that is good you can come in."
"That was really footwork and tactic skills, best i ever seen." Compliments Ares. "For a girl." He adds.
Helen right then and there wished Zeus would strike him down, if he wouldn't she would of except the fact she would be facing a god.
"That what you get when you date a hero." mutters Helen as she paces pack and forth in her room. "Why can't I have dated a normal teenage guy!" she yells at herself. "but nooooo, Helen you had to go and date the hero."
"He always has to be out somewhere fighting some evil something or other, saving some helpless citizen or fighting off the gods' enemies." she complains to herself. "Oh well, I'll live with it." She calms down. "I guess."
Herry and Archie open the door to Hermes' room. It is a little dim. Both of them proceed into the room with caution.
It seems it had been torn apart by a large cat. The pillows had cotton and such laying everywhere. Almost everything was askew. There was a few broken vases and a bed sliced in two.
"Hello?" calls out Herry. "Anybody home?"
Something thuds to the floor on the right. They quickly turn to see it is just a vase that fell onto a demolished cushion. A cool breeze passes by them.
They shiver.
They again proceed on. "Tell you the truth Archie this place gives me the creeps."
"Ya, I agree."
All of the sudden out of nowhere jumps a figure taking a downward swipe between the two.
The figure has long, straight, sharp metal claws. With a female figure and long hair.
She had an wild elegance.
"Hiya!" the female attacks again. Slashing left and right trying to slice anything it can get its hands on.
"Whoa." Archie steps back almost getting metal claws through the stomach. "That was close."
Herry comes from behind the predator and squeezes the body so that it's arms are immobilized.
The figure squirms and wiggles but can't get free. Instead, it stamps on Herry's foot.
Herry lets out a big yelp and tries to cradle his foot.
The female gives a short malevolent laugh.
She advances on, Archie.
"Uh oh."
She plunges towards him.
He dives down, and throws his feet into the air. She lands on top of them. Archie springs her off into the walls.
She crashes against the split in two bed. The female quickly and smoothly gets up. She shakes her head and again once more advances on Archie.
The lights turn on.
Herry is standing by the lightswitch.
They both look at their attacker. It was an familiar face.
"Helen!" they both scream with surprise.
Her face turns dumbfouded but instantly turns back to a mean pursuing face.
"Helen what is the matter with you?" retorts Archie.
She doesn't answer just starts trying to gash, surrounding both of them by jumping here and there. Flashing before their eyes, gone and the next second there.
"Helen if this is about forgetting the date last night, I am sorry." pleads Herry. He throws a punch at her.
"You forgot your date!" queries Archie. "Now I understand why she is mad! It looks like Helen is the strong and silent type though."
Herry tries to takes a charge at her without her being aware of it. She identifies Herry's actions immediately and jumps behind him.
"Huh?"
Kicking him right in the small of his back. Herry goes flying to the floor.
Archie takes out his whip, "Sorry Helen, but you got anger issues to work out."
Helen turns towards Archie looking like she wants another skirmish. She gets a evil wicked smile on her face as she crouches over a little.
She presses on hissing like a serpent.
Archie aimed for her heel, he took a wallop at her. But, before it reached its target a large claw blocked the attack and the whip wrapped around the four metal hooks.
Archie look surprised. Helen smiled, she jerks the whip out of Archie's hand and catches it in her own. Tucking the whip into her pocket, she drags her claws along the wall ripping the wallpaper as she proceeds on Archie.
Archie trips over a turned over chair. He lands on his bum hard.
Helen turns on Archie and in a blink of an eye Helen is standing face to face with Herry.
"Hello Herry." jeers Helen with a smirk on her face.
"Whoa, Helen whatever the problem is we can work this out can't we?" Herry asks.
Helen disregards with what Herry says and stalks on her prey.
Herry grabs a leg of a footstool and prepares himself.
She pounces,their weapons lock, it is a battle of strength which Herry wins. He throws her to the floor.
He lunges himself at her to try and capture her. She rolls away and tackles him from behind.
She presses her claws against Herry's neck.
"Don't move." She hisses.
"Okay Helen that is enough." Odie's voice appears out of nowhere, he seems like he is about to burst laughing. Odie shows himself, he had been hiding behind a curtian.
"I think those claws AND you have proved their worth."
Helen takes the claws off of Herry, and stands up.
"Whoa what just happened here?" asks Archie.
Helen gives a sweet smile and takes off the claws and puts them in one hand. She offers a hand to Herry lying on the ground. He seems to be a little baffled.
He accepts and she pulls him up.
Helen walks over to Odie and gives him the metal claws.
"Man Helen i have never seem those two squirm so much before. Wow, you are good." Odie remarks.
"Thanx." She says gently.
"You mean Helen acting like she was on a rampage was all fake?" asks Herry.
Helen nods smiling. "It was hard too keep in from laughing though."
"Won't Hermes be mad?" questions Herry.
"No he said we could trash it. He said he needed to redecorate anyways." replies Helen. "It turns out though I am Odie's new tester of his invented gadgets and weapons."
"By the way Herry I accept your apology." Helen says as she struts out of the room giving him a wink.
"Herry, I am glad she is on our side." whispers Archie.
"I am not coming out!" Helen's muffled voice yells out from her room. "you guys can go on without me, I'll come a little later."
"Come on Helen, what is the problem?" asks Atlanta who is standing outside her door along with Archie, Herry, Neil and Jay.
"to tell you the truth I stand in white Greek linen and heavy gold jewelry."
"Why?" asks Herry.
"Hermes says it would help me understand my roles as a goddess better and stuff. He says whenever I work for him or study with him or other gods I have to wear this...outfit."
"It can't be that bad." remarks Jay.
"Oh it can." says Neil. They all give him a stare.
"Come out Helen we won't laugh." persuades Herry.
Helen sighs. "Okay..."
She opens the door.
They all gasp. The boys can't help but laugh.
"Man I didn't know Aphrodite was capable of that." comments Neil.
Helen stand in a white Greek dress that had pins on each shoulder and came a little past knee length. her hair she wore long with a clip pinned into her hair. She wore two gold hoop earrings and a few bracelets on one wrist while on the other a gold armlet. She wore a belt with blue and green block on it, the trim matched. She also wore green eyeshadow.
"I knew this would happen." Helen says bitterly and starts to walk back into her room. Wiping off the eyeshadow.
"Helen." Herry grabs her wrist "it looks fine." He gives her a smile.
She smiles back.
"Who gave you the dress and jewelry?" asks Atlanta.
"Aphrodite, she gave me the full makeover. Saying the beautifulist have to be adorned." sighs Helen. "If you are ask me i rather go natural."
"Hey there stop it." Helen giggles as two wolves totally trample her, a griffon nudges her shoulder and a jaguar rubs purring against her legs as she lies in the grass at Persephone's garden.
"Doing well Helen doing well." Hermes congratulates her.
"I think you have mastered you ability to charm beasts. I think they like you naturally though."
"Thanx." she replies cheerfully as she slowly gets up and walks towards Hermes.
The animals follow her.
"Hey Helen." Herry walks up behind Hermes.
"Hi." she says shyly.
"Well I leave you too alone, your lesson is finished today Helen."
Helen blushes lightly.
Hermes leaves the two, and the door slams behind him.
"I didn't know you had control over animals?"
A hawk flies over and lands on Helen's ready armlet.
"Either did I actually, but I am not as good as Hermes. and i charm them not control." replies Helen.
"Well that is still pretty amazing." Herry looks at the animals waiting behind her. The wolves nudging her hand to be petted.
"Oh right." Helen turns around. "Sorry guys you have to leave." she says gently.
The animals look dissapointed and each seperate into the trees. The bird stays, Helen strokes the hawk's chest.
"By the way, this is Aldara, my little messenger." she strokes the bird's chest again.
"Um... Hi." He waves at the bird, it shrieks in return.
"How do keep a griffin under control?" Herry asks.
"I can only CHARM one at a time. The best way is to sing to it." Helen looks over at the griffin sitting under a shaded tree. "even though may I note it isn't the greatest singing." Helen adds. Giving in a quick giggle.
"it can't be that bad." comments Herry.
"Beleive me it has it's moments. Well while we are here why don't we just relax here."
"Sounds good." Herry shrugs his shoulders.
"I have the perfect place." Helen smiles and she gently pulls on Herry's hand.
Helen takes aside a palm tree leaf hanging lower down to the ground.
Herry lays down beside her.
"Have you ever watched the clouds in the sky?" probes Helen.
"I did when I was a lil' kid. I don't now." responds Herry.
"It is so calm and soothing. Plus, it is sometimes really fun."
"Well anything is good if you are here." remarks Herry.
He places his hand over Helen's.
Helen gave a small brief laugh. "That is so cheesy, it works."
There is a small grassy hill having flowers popping up here and there.
"I like this spot, it is very sunny and cheery." She gives him a smile and brings him along to the grass.
"You know I am getting used to you in that umm.. dress. I am really starting to like it." Herry comments.
"Good to hear." Helen replies gladly.
She lays down in the grass and stares upto the sky. She pats the ground beside her.
Herry lays down rather close beside her.
"Have you ever looked at the clouds?" Helen probes.
"I did when I was a kid. Not now though." Herry relaxes.
"It is very soothing and calm if you have free time. It is sometimes really fun too."
"Anything is great if you are with me." Herry remarks.
He puts his hand over Helen's.
Helen gives a brief small laugh. "That is so cheesy, it works."
"Are all my lines cheesy?" Herry turns to Helen and leans on one elbow.
Helen does the same facing Herry. She thinks. "No not all them but a fair bit." she teases. "but I like them anyway."
"Are you sure your Granny will like me?" questions Helen anxiously.
"She'll be glad to see you, especially since you are a helping hand."
"Ya, I hope you are right."
Herry knocks on the front door.
"Who is it?" an elderly woman's voice calls out.
"It's me grams."
"Herry boy! glad to hear from you." She opens the door. There infront of Helen stood a elderly women with wrinkles galore, gray hair pulled back into a bun, and a large grin on her face. Also, she was well...tiny! "do I have work for you."
"Oh and who is this?" She peers at Helen.
"This is Helen, the girl i told you about." Herry says with a small hint of awkwardness.
"This is the girl! Why she is just as pretty as you said she is." She cheers gladly. "Come in." Granny waves them in as turns around.
Helen gives Herry a questioning face. He smiles meekly.
The couple walk in. Helen observes the friendly ladie's house.
"This is a warming house um Mrs..."
"Call me Granny."
"Okay." Helen shrugs.
"So Helen, what can you do?" Granny asks.
"Excuse me?" Helen is confused by the question.
"Herry said you volunteered to help out."
"Oh yes, right well i don't think my charming animals can help but, I have super speed."
"perfect we'll be done in no time." Granny walks to the backyard. "Come along."
"Do you think she likes me?" Helen whispers to Herry.
"Ya, you are doing fine."
"Helen are you almost done up there?" calls Granny.
"Almost just this last corner and I am done." She yells down. Helen is up on the rooftop cleaning the gutters, it had only taken her 5 minutes so far.
"How bout you Herry?" Granny turns to Herry mowing the lawn.
"Doing fine, Granny."
Granny turns around to see Helen standing right behind her. She jumps. "Oh my, Helen dear you scared me."
"Sorry." She says smiling. "What now?"
Granny thinks. "You can start to wash the fence off..."
In a blink of an eye Helen was gone and already on the job. Moving like lightning.
When Herry was done pushing that hunk of a junk lawnmower. Helen had finished washing the fence, and it was a sparkling white.
Helen joins the two staring at the fence. Herry wraps his arm around Helen's waist. The dirt on his filthy shirt transfers onto her side.
"Um, Herry I think you should clean up before you try making a move on me." She laughs.
"Your no better." Helen too is covered in grimy dirt.
"Ya."
"You two clean up, I'll make something to eat." Granny grins at the grubby couple.
"Good because I'm starving." Herry pats his stomach with his free hand.
The two walk to the house with still Herry's arm wrapped around Helen.
Helen was the first to become clean, while Herry that it was too much work and just decided to take a shower. Helen joined Granny in the kitchen.
"What can I help you with?" She looks at the boiling mess of kettles everywhere.
"You can make the apple pie dear."
"sweet." Helen pulls her hair back and picks a apple and starts to peel.
Herry walked downstairs towel drying his hair. "Something smells delicious."
"That might be the pie Helen made Herry."
"Helen, I didn't know you had talent in the food area?"
"I really don't..."
"Oh don't be so modest Helen dear." Granny interupts.
A timer chimes and Helen puts on an oven mitt, she opens the oven and pulls out a perfect steamy pie.
"Let's eat." Helen calls out.
They sit down and eat the meal, Herry eating rapidly and in large amounts.
