Chapter 20

The silence that followed told me that even them didn't fully knew what that prophecy meant for me. However, for me was certain that my end wouldn't be that good. I already knew one of the so-called Gods in the prophecy, but I still need to find out who the other two were. Apollo was on his own quest to retrieve the oracles, and for sure he would also find out who they were. If only there was a way to communicate with him and the others, but no all forms of communications had been cut off for some reason.

"Well that is not a good prophecy." I commented.

I still didn't understand why it say I had the powers of the Gods, yes I was powerful, but my power was still less than that of a God.

"That is why Rhea hide it here, we are the only ones that know it is written here. The other Gods only knew part of it too." Zeus explained.

"I just don't understand why it says I have the power of the Gods. I'm not even close to your powers, I'm just stronger than most halfbloods." I questioned.

"That is because when you were born the three of us conceal some of your powers, since you weren't able to control them even when you were here at Olympus." My father explained.

"And before you ask. Yes, they are still concealed." Hades added.

"So, all the trainings…" I started.

"Preparation." Zeus said.

"Your true powers will be released very soon, when we concealed them it was for your safety too, even with the training at the beginning your powers were out of control." My father explained.

With all this new information I could only think on what could have happen seven years ago if I had my powers full force.

Well that means I have to time to lose, I need to find a way to fight these three Emperors. At least I know that the last fight it will be on a rainy day, I guess that helps me a little bit." I commented.

"That still means you have two other fights before that. And there is no information how those will go." Hades said.

"Before anything, I need to go on my way to find who are the two missing Emperors." I said. "I just have one more question."

"The marking on your arms?" My father asked.

"Yes, I know I have them since I was born but that is it." I replied.

"Those are the symbols of blessings and or presents given by all of us. Expect the one from your father, you were born with that one." Zeus explained.

"But I though you guys rarely gave those." I said.

"We do, that is way most of them is a one use only, few are permanent." Zeus replied.

"Let me guess. I have no idea what they are until I use them." I said.

"You could say that." Hades said.

"Well, we know almost all of them, expect the one Hades gave you." Zeus said looking at his brother.

"And I'm still not going to share it. I have my reasons." Hades replied.

"Anyway, I don't care. Can we just leave this place now?" I asked.

The four of us left the house, leaving the prophecy just stuck in my head. There were still some secrets being held from me, but at least now I had some more information.

"Thank you for showing me the prophecy." I said once we got back to Zeus temple.

"What are you going to do now?" My father asked.

"Well, like I said before. I need to find out who the other two are. There is no way for me to know which one of them I'm going to fight last. So, I need all info I can on all of them before any fight happens." I replied.

After that there was silence while we walked back to Zeus temple. I didn't know what else to say to them for now, since there were no more answers for me there anyway.

"I will be going now. Hopefully the next time I see the three of you will be after everything ends." I told the three of them.

"Good luck out there." Hades said.

"We will keep an eye." Zeus continued.

"Just be careful, will you." My father said.

"Sometimes it looks like you all forget you were the ones who train me." I said and walked away.

I once again left Olympus, this time with a little bit more information. However, I still had a feeling that something was missing. Could it be that that wasn't still the full prophecy? Or was I overthinking it. Anyway, what was important now was finding out who were the last two Emperors. But how could I dig that information out? My only lead so far was the Triumvirate façade that they were using. And even Rachel hadn't been able to find their identities while investigating them. It still didn't hurt trying it again.

I walked all over, but anything that I found was the same that I already knew. No, this way would not work I needed to find a different approach. It was then that suddenly felt like I was being followed. I almost ignored the feeling, thinking it was just my imagination, but then I actually saw someone hiding from when I looked back. I keep on walking, and I kept being followed, so I decided to change my route and go to a place where who ever was following me would have nowhere to hide.

After a while I knew who was following me, but I still decided to keep going with their little game. I reached an empty park and I stopped when I was sure that the person following me had no way to go anywhere to hide.

"It would be nice if you would stop following me and just say what you want." I said turning to face my stalker.

"How already knew it was me, why did you kept going?" She asked showing her face.

"Well someone teach me to always get the upper hand in any situation. In this case was making sure you had no way to hide." I replied. "Anyway, why are you here Lady Artemis?"

"I think we might be able to help each other out." Artemis replied.
