"Is Hephaestus and Zeus" Grover answers, Tina went wide eyed with shock and rage, she did thought Zeus as a candidate, but she could never thought Hephaestus could be one.
Tina shut her rage out as she starts to think on why would Hephaestus go for her, but her train of thought was broken when an angry yell swept across her home and outside air,
"Damn! They caught up!" Luke growls drawing his sword once more, but Tina quickly puts a hand on his shoulder catching Luke's attention,
"I'll draw them off you four" she then stamps her feet imagining Camp half blood and it's Cabins with the big house before she heard dirt collapsing behind her, Tina turns to see a tunnel that possible lead to camp half blood, she doesn't have a full grasp of her powers yet but Tina certainly hopes that's where it's heading
"Go and don't even dare look back" Tina warns and walks up the stairs just for Thalia to grab her hand, Tina looks at her with a raised brow as Thalia held a frown,
"They will try to kill you" she warns with a deep frown with concern in her eyes, Tina merely smiles,
"I'm a elemental goddess young one" she reassures before adding with a daring toothy smirk, "and besides, I would like to see them try, now go" she says shaking her hand off and heading outside.
As Tina reached her entrance she got quite the surprise,
"Why hello there" she smiles gently as she sees Cyclops, Hellhounds and to her surprise, a Minotaur.
A burly, spiky black haired male Cyclops approached her and pokes her chest rather forcefully pushing her back a bit, if Tina wasn't pissed before she is now,
"Where are the Demigods!?, Tell us now!" He demanded as Tina grins at this before making certain gestures as a plant appeared behind the Cyclop while saying,
"Well it's up your ass then take a trip to your heart and say sorry to the nice lady in front of you numb nuts and you might know where" she smirks knowing this will tick him off.
The Cyclops face fumed before yelling, raising his club with a bellowing yell as Tina frowns before snapping her fingers, the yelling cease as a tearing sound was heard, the Cyclops looks down to see a vine with spikes going through his chest as dust poured out.
"Oh darn i-" he then turns into an explosion of golden dust as the hellhounds growls as the Minotaur merely snorts grabbing its axe at the ready at the new enemy before them.
Tina chuckles before pouting,
"Awww you wouldn't hurt little ol me now would you?" The moment the Minotaur and the hellhounds charged that the answer is yes they would, she side steps as the Minotaur swung his axe downward at her before extending her right hand as she felt a flow of heat go through her heart to her shoulder, to her elbow then exiting the hand as an inferno of blazing flames consume the Minotaur as it bellows out before silence followed.
Just as she finished incinerating the Minotaur one of the hellhounds leapt in attempt to tear her arm off, but for her to side step, kicking the dirt sending rocks shooting at the hellhound, tearing through it, turning it to dust.
She then slowly turns to remaining two hellhounds with a savage look on her face,
"Leave. Now" she orders narrowing her eyes at them, they seemed to take it and run as Tina sighs when they disappeared from view before walking back to her home until her menu popped up as she look at it with a groan as she felt her body ache, her magic is low... Again.
'Slayed, Cyclop, Minotaur and hellhound, gained 3760 exp, lvl 7,
Gained:
Divine form: your most powerful form
Minotaur's Axe: has 2 times the damage less mobility
Elemental ll: ice, lava, lightning added to the element list'.
"Wait, whaaat?" Tina gives a confused look deciding to search for this element list until finding it in the abilities,
"Wow!" She mumbles as a smirk appeared on her lips at the list of elements within her arsenal,
"Elements:
Earth
Fire
Water
Air
Ice
Lava
Lightning"
"Nice" she grins before pressing the Minotaur axe just for it to materialise in front of her as she grabbed it, feeling the wooden texture of it while seeing that it's two handed with double edged axes on both sides with the omega sign, hopefully she can use this when she runs out of magic.
"Hm okay" she shrugs and puts it back into inventory and it flashes out of existence before entering now empty home with two holes in it, she sighs and gives an immediate fix by snapping her fingers making the holes disappear.
Tina stretches once more before tensing up as she felt a presence behind her, she quickly draws out her axe just to see someone that surprised her as the said person blocks her axe.
Athena, she blocked with a shield before replying quickly keeping her spear at bay,
"Friendly!, I'm friendly!" She called out quickly, Tina froze up when her red and blue eyes met with her grey stormy eyes, their beautiful, but she quickly focused on the task at hand, for a moment neither one moved, fearing one move can trigger the other to attack.
But Tina hesitantly took a step back and lowered her axe as Athena lowered her shield with a sigh of relief,
"Thank you for your cooperation" she thanks before frowning and Tina gripped her Axe tightly at her gaze, Tina admitted those eyes are beautiful, but their also intimidating.
"I wasn't aware that you were within the vicinity lady Athena, may I ask for the reason for your visit?" Tina asks, Athena then raised a curious brow at her and the frown disappeared much to Tina's relief.
"No need for formalities Nature Valley we both are sister goddesses, but for the reason I'm here is cause I suddenly felt a surge of power that are equal to that of Hades, Zeus and Poseidon, was that you?" Athena asks as Tina tensed up, she should've been more careful when she was fighting.
As if Athena read her mind that were filled with worry sighed with a shake of her head,
"Your not in trouble, even though you broke the law of not interfering with the mortals and Demigods I'll let it slide just this once, but Zeus has a request for you, if your interested?" She says sounding like a businesswoman introducing architectural structures, but yet again she's the Goddess of Architecture, but Zeus this should be interesting.
"I'm listening" Tina nods and Athena does in return under her helmet,
"Come to Olympus and take a throne with us, but it will mean obeying our laws, but you'll have a seat in the council and have a Cabin within camp half blood" Athena explained as Tina mentally takes a sharp inhale, but she sighed physically getting Athena curious once more.
"Unfortunately Athena I must decline the offer for I am a free spirit, like the elements I can not be contained, I'll still be Olympian cause of my origins and bloodlines, but I'd rather travel freely and do whatever with no restrictions" Tina explained as Athena nods in understanding.
"But there will be something I'd like" she says with a deep frown as Athena tensed up,
"And what that might be?" Athena questioned as Tina replied with the only thing she has on her mind,
"I want both Hephaestus and Zeus to apologise"
Athena went wide eyed, why would Nature Valley like for Zeus and Hephaestus?
Zeus, her father she can understand why that, but Hephaestus, why the God of forge and fire?
"Um My father I can possibly understand, but Hephaestus, what has he done?, But you do also realise what your asking?" Athena questioned, wondering if this Goddess is listening to her pride more then to reasoning, cause she's asking her to tell her father, the king of Olympus and the God of forge and fire to apologise.
"Yes I am, they took my virginity without asking, made me bare monstrous children and not take responsibility for it, I'm not asking for much am I?" Nature Valley replied as Athena gave a nod, she admits the Goddess has courage that is strong as steel and so is her persistence.
"as you wish, but I won't promise anything and it might end badly" she attempts to warn the Goddess to sway her from this potentially risky path,
"Fine by me"
She might as well add arrogance to the list of describing Nature Valley.
"Woah!" Tina yelped as she got suddenly brought to Olympus via teleportation from Athena who grabbed her before she can trip and fall down the stairs and pulls her back,
"Careful" Athena warned before looking her up and down, "do you have a more suitable attire?"
"No I always wear this" Tina answered with a shrug and sigh before pointing at the large door as she continued to keep eye contact with Athena,
"Where does this door lead?" She asked as Athena then answered,
"To the throne room of the gods and I would advise for you to be on your best behaviour" Athena warns her to which Tina nods as Athena opens the door to reveal the throne room, and the gods on their thrones.
"Athena why did you call for a meeting?" Hera asks as the two approached, Tina notices both Zeus and Hephaestus looking nervous, sweating a bit in fact, she never knew she made these two so nervous.
"My Queen, this meeting has been requested so Nature Valley will have an opportunity to speak to Zeus and Hephaestus" Athena explained before increasing in size, walks to her throne and seats down.
Hera then sends Zeus a glare that promises pain, Zeus flinch's and looks at her rather nervously, Tina frowned deeply, if he was expecting sympathy from her, he wouldn't get any.
"You my Lord along with Hephaestus raped me in my slumber and made me bare children, I would've teared down Olympus for such a offence, but I'm a generous goddess so I'll give you one opportunity, ONE! To apologise to me right. Now" Tina demands with coldness in her tone, Hera sent Zeus a death stare.
But how Zeus replied surprised Tina extremely, he sighed, looking actually guilty, he cups his hands together, his elbows on his knees,
"I admit when I was younger I made mistakes, but the greatest mistake was what I and Hephaestus did to you, making you bare children of ours that are monstrous, for a time we did not care not worried, but as we grew older with time, we felt more guilt and shame" Zeus said shocking Tina, she expected him to deny it and blaming it on her for being beautiful or something crazy like that.
Zeus closed his eyes before seating up straighter against his chair the God's giving Hephaestus and Zeus different looks, his electric blue eyes met her blue and red eyes, it suddenly occurred to Tina, these aren't just characters, they are people with actual emotions.
"I speak for Hephaestus because we had this talk many times before, we're sorry, if there's anything he and I can offer as apology we will do it" Zeus spoke once more, Tina looks at Hephaestus and Zeus to see any form of lie.
"Their not lying" Apollo from his seat spoke looking at her sympathetically as she nods, she was glad Apollo's here before facing Zeus,
"What are you willing to offer?" She asks her voice less cold like icicles, but like the ocean showing uncertainty to them,
"I'm willing to give you place at the council, a Cabin and a status as a high goddess" Zeus offers as Tina nods before facing Hephaestus to see what the God of forge and fire has to offer.
He seems to be fiddling with something, his fingers twitching here and there,
"I'm um I can offer to forge any weapon you desire" Hephaestus offer peeked Tina's interest as she turns to Zeus with a grin,
"I accept Hephaestus offer can you give me every metal you have, one large piece of each?" Tina grins as Hera then raises a brow and before Zeus could answer,
"What kind of weapon are you thinking of?" Artemis questioned with a forward brow in a frown.
"A weapon that's worthy of a goddess like me"
"Then so be it" Zeus shrugs as Hephaestus leads Her to his forge via teleportation, but one things for certain, she knows some of the gods.
don't trust her.
