Nobody Gets Left Behind or Forgotten
'What am I thinking? How am I supposed to defeat the Lord of the Dead? I am so totally screwed…' Kaylie thought bitterly. She knew this guy had to be really powerful if even Hercules feared him. 'Maybe I could defeat Hades after I get a little stronger? I think I'll go ask Hercules what he thinks…'
"Hey Hercules?" Kaylie asked trying to get his attention. He was busy help some of the local citizens move some boulders that had fallen during a rockslide. He was in the middle of picking up a smaller rock so he threw it down and came over to where she had chosen to wait for him.
"What is it Kaylie? Is something wrong?"
"No, of course not!" then Kaylie thought it would be better to just spit out the truth and get it over with. "Yes, actually, there is."
"What is it?" Hercules asked, clearly he was getting worried.
"I don't think that, I mean, I just realized…Hades…he is well…I don't think I can defeat him yet." Finally the right words came out.
"I know. In order to defeat Hades, you have to become stronger." He said.
"Oh…then you would understand that I have to travel to other worlds in order to get stronger?"
"Yes I do understand. I don't want you to stay here and never get any better. You promised to bring Meg back and I know you will. I also know that it is going to take time. So, don't worry. I won't get mad when you leave Olympia."
"Really?" Kaylie asked. 'This guy was being really nice about all this. I know for a fact that if I were in his place I would be a nervous wreck and would want my wife back immediately.' Kaylie thought. "Thank you for understanding. I feel better knowing that you are okay with this."
"That's good to hear. Well before you go, take this." Hercules handed her two tickets. "I forgot to give these to you with you money you earned from winning the tournament."
"If you take this to the shop by the front gate, you and your friend can use these tickets to buy anything in the store that you want."
"Really? That is so cool! Thank you Hercules!" Kaylie reached over and gave him a warm hug then a peck on the cheek. "You are really nice. I can't wait until I come back."
"Well you and your friends had better get going soon. You don't want to wait until morning to leave. When you leave at night all the lights on Olympia glow and sometimes they form a message that you can only see from space."
"Okay. We'll leave as soon as Amoura and I stop at the shop. Bye, Hercules. I'll miss you." Kaylie said sadly.
"I'll miss you too." Then with one final wave, Kaylie left to find her friends.
LATER…
"Wow these are awesome!" Amoura exclaimed. "I can't believe the make these kind of things!" The trio had just left Olympia and everybody had souvenirs.
Amoura had chose the most expensive item in the whole store. It was a belt that could change your appearance, even make you invisible. Kaylie chose a bracelet that matched her necklace Sean gave her. It could be worn casually or, in battle, be used as a weapon. When it was used in battle you undid it from your wrist and used it to cut through just about anything. When used battle, it glowed gold. Sean had his shoes of course.
"Yeah…I wish I had something like that." Sean said bitterly.
"Oh Sean!" Kaylie exclaimed. "Think positive for once! You got those shoes that make you faster and swifter. I don't see anything wrong with being better."
"Yeah…you're right." He agreed.
"I know." Kaylie laughed. "I'm always right."
"Yeah right." Sean said sarcastically.
"Hey you two love birds," Amoura interrupted, "but I think you should see this." She pointed out the window to the planet they had just left. There, just as Hercules had said, was a message.
"It says," Amoura began,
"Thank you for helping my son, Kaylie, Amoura, and Sean. It means a lot that you are willing to fight his worst enemy that he has never been able to truly defeat. I am counting on you.
Good luck on your journey-
Zeus."
They all stared the lights from Olympia. They seemed to glow gold. Anyone who say it would say it was the most beautiful thing they had lied eyes on.
"It's so beautiful…" Kaylie said in awe. 'Nobody gets left behind or forgotten. I can't let you down Hercules.' Kaylie thought. Then in a more confident tone, she said aloud, "I won't let you down."
