After about five hours of flying, the two were forced to rest. Pit knew he could have flown for at least another hour, maybe two, but Kaitlyn was obviously struggling. Her wings had started cramping up, and now were just causing her pain.
Pit wasn't sure where they were. Heck, he wasn't even sure where exactly they were going. All he had was the map that Nighthawk had given the two of them, and that was basic directions and not much more.
Kaitlyn let out a long sigh as they landed. Her wings drooped, touching the dusty ground. She sat on a nearby rock and hunched over, letting herself completely relax. Pit stood nearby, flexing his wings and stretching his arms out. Flying for any extended period of time was difficult, no matter what skill level the angel was. And Kaitlyn wasn't terribly skilled.
Kaitlyn had also set down her backpack, giving her wings ample room to recover. The weaponry on her bag clinked as it hit the ground. Pit fingered his own knives nervously. It wasn't that he didn't trust Kaitlyn with her guns. He was just more comfortable with his old-fashioned knives and bow.
The largest gun was strapped to the bottom of her backpack. The barrel folded up against the back of the rest of the gun, making it smaller and easier to transport. Kaitlyn's two pistols hung from her belt, one on either side. Pit had seen her use both of them at once, and with each gun she had attained incredible accuracy. Her weapons had been transported to Angel Land by Lady Palutena when Kaitlyn had been having trouble with archery.
"All those necessities are sure getting heavy," Kaitlyn said as she drank from her water bottle (another gift from Lady Palutena, seeing as Kaitlyn didn't retain water nearly as efficiently as other angels). She wiped at her brow and cracked her neck. She looked as though she would do anything to just collapse on her bed and sleep late into the morning. But she still managed to get to her feet and crack her back.
"So," she continued, "where are we, exactly?"
Pit pulled the map from the folds of his toga, and pointed to the line. "Somewhere along here."
Kaitlyn raised an eyebrow, giving Pit a flat look. "Geez, I never would have guessed. I meant geographically. Where are we on Earth? The Overworld?"
Pit scrunched up his face. "How should I know?! I never lived here!"
Kaitlyn grabbed the map and flattened it with a flick of her wrists. She gave Pit a dry gaze. "Seriously…?" she sighed. "Let me see…"
She scanned the map, muttering a little to herself. "Honestly, this looks a lot like Alaska or Canada. No wonder it's so cold."
Pit shrugged. "Is it that different from other places on Earth?"
"Of course! The farther north you go, the colder it gets, because it's farther away from the sun."
"Farther away from the sun?" Pit gave her a shocked look. "You can do that?"
"Did you learn anything from your time in high school?"
"That's debatable…"
Kaitlyn sighed and continued to scan the map. "Okay, according to the map, Viridi's little 'hideaway' shouldn't be too far away. If we've been flying for five hours, and we're over halfway there, then we should be there before nightfall."
"Good!" Pit said. "Viridi should set us up with some nice lodging!"
"Who is this Viridi girl anyways?" Kaitlyn asked. "You mentioned before that she was a goddess."
"Goddess of Nature," Pit clarified. "Because she understands nature and heat signals and things like that, she should be able to find the Apple of Discord's pieces because of their strong aura."
Kaitlyn nodded. "Alright. She sounds good."
Pit winced as he came to a sudden realization. "Um…one problem…she has this thing against humans…"
Kaitlyn's eyes narrowed. "Oh, so she discriminates against humans, like every other darned being in the Skyworld."
"Um…yeah…" Pit said awkwardly. He rubbed the back of his neck, avoiding Kaitlyn's smoldering eyes.
Finally, Kaitlyn let out a huff of a sigh. "Fine," she snapped. "Then I'll just have to be on my best behavior, won't I."
"That might be best."
Kaitlyn shot him a scathing glare. "Fine. Let's go. I'm ready to get back on the road."
"We're not on the road…"
"It's a figure of speech, Pit!"
"Oh, right…"
He wasn't sure what to do. They took off and continued on their way, but there was tension in the air. They hardly spoke at all for the next hour. Kaitlyn was smoldering on her own, obviously annoyed by what Pit had said. But Pit hadn't been wrong. Viridi didn't like humans. In fact, on more than one occasion, she had tried to eradicate the entire human race. Pit hoped that Kaitlyn, being part angel now, would hopefully be able to get on Viridi's good side.
But judging by her attitude at the moment, he wasn't all that confident.
The wind grew stronger as they went on, and Kaitlyn had to work even harder to keep steady on the drafts. Pit had a little trouble, but he was able to keep his wings and muscles under control. After a few minutes of Kaitlyn struggling, Pit maneuvered over to her and gently slipped his hand into hers.
Kaitlyn flinched at the touch, and looked at Pit with a nervous expression. Pit gave her a small smile. "Hey, it'll be okay."
The blonde-haired girl's hand relaxed into his and she gave a weak smile back. "Thanks, Pit."
With Pit's experience flying, he was able to balance out both of them, making it easier for Kaitlyn to fly and not get bumped around by the powerful wind. Eventually, they made to calmer winds and they flew apart again, though this time in much higher spirits.
Kaitlyn had been right about the chill. The air was much colder here than in the Skyworld. The two angels had donned pairs of white trousers, which their togas hung over, so as to keep their legs slightly warmer. Their sandal-boots were lined with wool, and they had donned a pair of thick, white jackets, which were lined with tannish fur. These kept out most of the chill, though by the time they landed, their cheeks were rosy and cold.
"Viridi's camp should be close to here," Pit murmured, pushing away bushes and branches to see what was past them.
Kaitlyn narrowed her eyes, squinting at the trees. "Is it just me, or do the trees here look weird?"
Pit followed her gaze and swallowed. He didn't know how he hadn't noticed before, but now that he was looking more closely, he agreed with Kaitlyn wholeheartedly. The trees, a variety of different species, were all oddly shaped. Their trunks twisted into shapes, some merely into spirals, other into hearts or stars. It was as though someone had turned the trees to clay and shaped them as they pleased. It was downright abnormal, and even slightly creepy.
Pit nodded slowly. "This is definitely—."
"GET DOWN!" Before Pit could do anything, he found himself tacked to the ground by Kaitlyn, who had her two pistols out and pointed at something that Pit couldn't see.
"Kaitlyn, what are you—?"
"Stay back!" Kaitlyn screamed, and Pit heard the shots that she fired. Pit hurriedly flipped onto his back, staring up at Kaitlyn.
The girl was fending off a moving tree. It was huge, with long branches for arms, and roots for legs. Its bark was split into a menacing figure and it already sported a few bullet holes from Kaitlyn's pistols. She held them up menacingly, her eyes narrow and focused. "You'd better stay back!"
The tree let out a low, guttural noise from the part in its bark. The two glowing, crystalline eyes seemed to shine with a new light, and instead of heeding Kaitlyn's words, the tree rushed at Kaitlyn. But now, behind it, stood about five other trees.
"Kaitlyn!" Pit yelled. "Stop!"
But Kaitlyn was either incredibly focused, or she just ignored Pit's words, because she started shooting. The trees roared in anger as the bullets split their bark. In some of their cases, the split bark oozed sap. The trees hardly seemed to notice, as they continued towards Kaitlyn, who was backing slowly into the underbrush.
Pit looked from her to the trees and back. "Kaitlyn, stop it!"
Kaitlyn took a step back. As soon as her foot hit the ground, vines twisted themselves out of the ground and wrapped around her leg and quickly up her body. She screamed as the thorns on the vines dug into her skin. But no matter how hard she pulled, the vines refused to budge.
She took another step back, but as vines once again wrapped around her leg, this time they cracked with electricity. Blue bolts of power rippled up Kaitlyn's body, causing her to scream in pain. Within moments, she had collapsed to the ground.
"Kaitlyn!" Pit nearly shocked himself as he touched Kaitlyn's shoulder. With so many vines digging into her skin, he wasn't sure what to do. He couldn't carry her like this, but she appeared to be breathing. "Kaitlyn, are you alright?"
"Ah, I knew I sensed a human around here!"
Pit whirled his head around. Standing on a slight uphill area nearby, looking majestic in her purples and reds, and her long bleach-blonde hair, was Viridi.
"So she's the human-angel hybrid Palutena keeps talking about."
Pit nodded, watching as Kaitlyn's chest rose and fell with each breath. "Will she be okay?"
Viridi sighed, brushing back a spare strand of hair. "If humans are anything, they're hardy creatures. She'll be fine, after she gets over the shock, if you'll excuse my pun. She should wake up in a couple of hours. Until then, we'll talk." She stepped out of the tent and Pit followed.
Viridi's camp was set up in a large clearing. The trees nearly covered the sky, giving the camp the feel of a grove. The tents were more of huts, made from vines and roots. All over the clearing were animals of all kinds, which all mingled together in small groups. Pit glanced around, noticing the walking trees that had attacked him earlier. They looked at him for a moment before going back to nursing their wounds. A small pile of bullets lay next to them, obviously having been pulled out of their trunks. Pit hadn't realized how many shots Kaitlyn had fired while trying to protect him.
"Sorry about your…trees," Pit said apologetically.
Viridi's face scrunched up in a slightly annoyed expression. "They heal relatively quickly. They'll be fine. Of course, leave it to a human to attack the Forces of Nature."
Her tone was bitter and angry, and Pit honestly couldn't blame her. But that still didn't make him happy about it. "Viridi, I'm sorry about the fight. Kaitlyn was trying to protect me."
"A human protecting the angel whose job is to protect humanity. The irony is immense." Viridi shot Pit a smirk of a smile.
Pit managed a small smile of his own. "Yeah, but you don't know Kaitlyn. She's stubborn and protective."
"How like a human," Viridi said. She let Pit over to two tree stumps and sat down on one, motioning for Pit to join her on the other one. "So, why are you here and what do you want?"
Pit sat where she directed and thought for a moment about how to start. "Well…um…have you…have you been having headaches or anything recently?"
Viridi shot him a curious look. "How do you know that?"
Pit let out a long breath. "Okay, here's what's going on." He explained about Mnemosyne and Eris, and how Palutena was slowly losing her mind and her powers. The goddess's eyes narrowed in thought when Pit got to the part about the Apple of Discord and the angel hosts. But she nodded when he had finished.
"So, Eris is back. That explains a few things, like the animals' behavior. And now you need her apple to get everything back to normal?"
"Before you forget anything," Pit said quickly. "In a few days, you could easily forget how to sense auras, and we need you to do that before you actually forget. Also, if you could, we'd like if you could keep the weather as pleasant as possible. Kaitlyn can't fly very well, and if we want to get to the apple pieces on time, we'll need to be as fast as we can, and that means no delays due to weather."
Viridi nodded. "I'm sure I can do at least that for you. How about—." She paused, shooting a look at the hut that Kaitlyn had been in. "Oh, what now?"
Kaitlyn moaned as she opened her eyes, before quickly shutting them. She tried to lift up her hands, but found her fingers twitched every time she did so. She let out a painful breath. Her lungs felt like they would explode. She could hardly cry out.
"Thirsty?"
Kaitlyn felt something brush against her lips, which she gripped between her teeth. A straw. She sucked on the straw and greedily drank the cool, refreshing water. It was practically sweet, not like any water she had ever had even in Angel Land. It was pure and cool, and loosened her tight throat.
Slowly, she reopened her eyes. Above her stood a young woman. She had short blonde hair tipped with orange that flared out at her neck. Her face was heart-shaped and very pretty, and she had bright blue eyes. "Well, good morning!"
"V-Viridi?" Kaitlyn's voice, despite the water, came out as nearly a croak.
The girl laughed in amusement. "No way! I'll have to tell her that at some point. No, my name is Phosphora."
"Phosphora…" Kaitlyn tried to remember what Pit had told her about the gods and goddess. "Wait, the lightning girl?"
"'Lightning Girl'?" Phosphora snorted. "Really? That's how Pit remembers me? Wow, that sounds like a cheesy cartoon superhero."
Kaitlyn winced. "Oh, sorry…I'm a little bit disoriented."
"That's probably my fault," Phosphora said, looking a little guilty. "I kind of electrocuted you."
"You what?" Kaitlyn winced as she sat up, pressing a hand to her head. Her skull throbbed, and Kaitlyn could only focus so hard.
Phosphora's face scrunched up in annoyance. The more Kaitlyn looked at her, the more she realized that Phosphora didn't look like much more than an average teenage girl, save for her odd hair. But there didn't seem to be much more to her than that. "You started attacking our trees! What else was I supposed to do?"
Kaitlyn didn't like the way this conversation was going. "Hey, they started attacking me first," she said sharply, crossing her arms. "And they were sneaking up on Pit! What else was I supposed to do?"
"Pit doesn't need protecting," Phosphora said with a growl. "It's you who needs protecting, human."
Phosphora's movements came to a dead stop as she found herself on the receiving end of a Glock 19 pistol. Kaitlyn's hand trembled in rage, and she glared at Phosphora. "I am sick and tired of being looked down upon because I'm a human," she spat. "Do you have any idea how it feels to be judged by every single god you meet? Well, I'm done with it! I'm leaving this stupid place, and don't you dare try to stop me!"
Phosphora had been a little surprised, but after a few moments, she gave Kaitlyn a dark smile. "Please, you think that dinky weapon will stop me? Time to give you a lesson on weaponry!" Phosphora's eyes closed and immediately her skin began to glow with blue electricity. Her hair snapped and cracked, and her long blue scarf began to levitate around her from the electrical energy she was making.
Kaitlyn sucked in a breath and gripped her handgun tighter. She had seen a lot of wacky, supernatural things since she had started living in the Skyworld, but electrical powers were new. She had heard Pit talk about Phosphora from time to time, but she hadn't expected this. The girl began to glow with blue electricity, beginning to levitate off the ground. Her hair and scarf stuck up on end, and her blue eyes glowed brightly.
With a yell, Phosphora's body disappeared into a huge bolt of electricity and she came charging at Kaitlyn. The angel girl grunted as she threw herself out of the way and managed a few shots at Phosphora. The electrical girl avoided them and let out a high-pitched laugh. "Is that the best you can do? You're even weaker than I thought!"
"Don't judge a book by its cover," Kaitlyn snapped. She pointed her pistols at Phosphora and let out a string of bullets, alternating between the two pistols. Phosphora managed to avoid most of the bullets, but a couple broke through her defenses and dug themselves deep into her flesh. She screeched angrily, shooting Kaitlyn a deathly glare. A shock of electricity shot out of Phosphora's hands, striking Kaitlyn in the chest. Kaitlyn yelped and her knees collapsed beneath her and she went tumbling to the ground.
Kaitlyn threw aside her pistols and grabbed at her backpack, which had been set next to the bed. She undid the strap at the bottom and unfolded her rifle, aiming at Phosphora. "Time to bring out the big guns!" She opened fire, but Phosphora was out of the hut before they could hit their mark. Kaitlyn growled underneath her breath and followed her out, holding her rifle up to her shoulder, prepared to shoot on any moment's notice.
Phosphora floated outside in the clearing. She had her hands up in a defensive position, but threw them up and shot another bolt of lightning at Kaitlyn. Kaitlyn dodged. She took a split second to aim.
"Kaitlyn!"
The girl was so surprised at the sound of her name that her gun wavered. She nearly dropped it, but held on. At that moment, Phosphora saw her opening, and another bolt of electricity was shot her way. Kaitlyn wouldn't be able to dodge that one.
A figure stepped in between them, holding up a long staff. The staff absorbed the electrical bolt, causing a flash of light to blast through the air for a moment. Kaitlyn winced and shut her eyes before opening them once again and staring at the figure in front of her.
She couldn't have been more than thirteen years old, much younger than Kaitlyn expected. She wasn't at all tall, and was actually on the shorter end. Her bleach-blonde hair was strung up in a messy side ponytail, and hung down far past her ankles. Her dress was made with fabric in the colors of pine green, orchid purple, coral pink, and rose red. She shot Kaitlyn a look, daring her with her golden eyes for Kaitlyn to move at all. Kaitlyn stayed stock still, practically holding her breath.
"Phosphora!" the girl snapped. "This is our guest! She's supposed to be treated with respect!"
The glowing blue figure landed gently on the ground and returned to normal, still looking angry. "It was her own fault!" She yelled. "She threatened me with those human weapons of hers! And she shot me with them!" Her wounds seemed to have been healed by her lightning powers, but she didn't look happy all the same.
Kaitlyn held up her rifle. "I'd shoot you again without a touch of guilt!"
The girl whirled around, holding up her hands for Kaitlyn to see. "If you do that, then I'll wrap you in vines again. So I highly suggest you stand down!"
Kaitlyn let out an angry sigh, but the gun was released from her grip and dropped with a thunk to the ground. The girl looked satisfied and turned back to Phosphora.
"προς θεον, Καιτλυν." Pit walked up to Kaitlyn and stood beside her, looking slightly mortified. But at the same time, his stance was one that made Kaitlyn think he was at least a little impressed.
Kaitlyn rolled her eyes. "You know I don't know Greek."
"I said, 'by the gods, Kaitlyn'. I mean, seriously, did you have to do that?"
"Hey, she insulted me," Kaitlyn snapped.
"That doesn't really give you the right to shoot at her."
"She shocked me with her electricity."
"And you shot her."
Kaitlyn scrunched up her face angrily. She knew this conversation wasn't going to get anywhere, and she ultimately knew Pit was right. She shouldn't have overreacted. But she wasn't all that good at remembering not to overreact until after she had done so.
The girl who had intervened turned back around. Phosphora was nowhere to be seen. "I'm sorry about Phosphora," the girl said. "She's a nice girl. She just has a couple of issues when it comes to humans."
Kaitlyn's eyes narrowed. "So I've noticed."
The girl shrugged. "I'm the same way, so I can't really blame her. Anyway, we were never introduced. My name is Viridi, Goddess of Nature." Her eyes narrowed when she looked Kaitlyn in the eye, as though daring her to say something harsh or to even attack her.
Kaitlyn managed a short bow, gritting her teeth slightly. "Kaitlyn of Angel Land."
Viridi stepped around Kaitlyn, looking her up and down. "You sure look like an angel, but your aura is giving off very human waves. I hate to admit it, but Palutena did a pretty good job." Her tone was grudging and her eyes were narrowed with critical scrutiny.
"Why the heck do you hate humans so much?" Kaitlyn said sharply. "Ever since I stepped foot in Angel Land, all I've heard is that you and just about every other divine being has a thing against humans. Why?"
Viridi threw her arm out, motioning to her camp. "Why? Because it's my job to protect the natural world and all you humans seem to do is wreck it, whether it be with your mining or gases or cars or anything else. You guys ruin the world, and someday, you'll regret it!" Viridi paused for a moment. "I mean, no insult to you, of course. We're a little bit overgeneralizing here."
"Yeah," Kaitlyn said bitterly. "A little."
Viridi waved the comment away. "Anyways, I've heard you guys are in need of some help. Pit already gave me the rundown. I'll need a world map and a little bit of time in quiet to find what I'm looking for, though." She pressed a hand to her head, grimacing. "Geez, this headache is getting stronger. I'd better get to work before I completely lose my mind." She turned away, heading to one of the larger tent-huts, before turning back to face Kaitlyn and Pit one last time. "And you two try to stay out of trouble. If I find any more of my Forces of Nature injured, you're going to be sorry." She walked off, leaving Pit and Kaitlyn alone.
There was a long pause. Pit shuffled his feet awkwardly, and Kaitlyn tried her best to avoid his gaze. Finally, Pit sighed and rubbed a hand through his hair. "Okay, what happened?"
Kaitlyn bit the inside of her cheek, trying to find a good way to explain herself. But the more she thought over it, the more she realized how irrational she had been. Why was it that she could only rationally think about situations afterwards? Her and her stupid knee-jerk reactions…
"You know what?" She said. "Nothing happened. I was being stupid. I threatened Phosphora when I shouldn't have."
Pit gave her long look. She could see the disappointment behind his gaze, and she felt all the more guilty. "I'm sorry. I know that we're here on a mission," she said quietly. She knew she could explain herself more, go into the details of the conversation that she and Phosphora had had. But to her, it sounded more like she was just coming up with excuses. So she left it at that.
She felt Pit's comforting grip on her shoulder. "Hey, it's alright. I forgive you. Though, Phosphora might be a little bit more touchy." He rubbed his hair again. He seemed to do that when he was thinking hard. "Just try not to anger any more gods on our trip. We need their help, and gods can be offended pretty easily."
Kaitlyn nodded. "I'll try."
It was nearly nightfall when Viridi finally came out of her hut. Her steps were a little unsteady, and Pit noticed that she was leaning on her staff more than usual. But a roll of paper was stuck under her arm, and that was what Pit was interested in.
She walked up to them. Pit and Kaitlyn had decided to stay close to the forest edge, and had spent the rest of the afternoon underneath a tree. This kept them at a relatively safe distance from the Forces of Nature, but gave them a good view of the camp. Viridi motioned for them to meet at a large stump, where she laid her rolls down. She laid a hand on the stump and leaned on it a little, taking a long breath. "I think I found them," she finally said. Her voice wasn't nearly as sharp as it had been earlier. Pit could tell that Mnemosyne's capture was finally starting to take a toll on her.
Viridi laid the rolls of paper down, and spread them out. They were maps, large maps. He vaguely remembered seeing ones like them when he stayed on earth. "These are maps of the Overworld," Viridi explained. "I allowed my aura sensing abilities to pinpoint areas on the map where they were the strongest. It was wasn't easy, but I think I have all of the pieces of the Apple of Discord found."
"Why was it so difficult?" Kaitlyn said. "Even if you're getting weaker, all the auras should be powerful enough to find."
"That's just it," Viridi said. "The pieces don't have equally powerful auras. Maybe they're different sizes, or they have different powers. Either way, I still managed to find where they are."
Her finger first landed in the one country that Pit actually knew, the United States of America. It was a good distance from Chicago, though. "This is where the first piece is," Viridi said. She pulled out a smaller map, a more detailed view of the area. "Specifically, it's around here." She pointed to a smaller section on the map.
Kaitlyn bent down and narrowed her eyes as she read, "Unites States Air Force Academy." She shot a look up at Viridi with an eyebrow raised. "In Colorado?"
Viridi shrugged. "How should I know? Anyways, the first one is there. It's weaker than the next one, but it's definitely one of the strongest aura in the Overworld." She pulled the map of the Air Force Academy off the table and went back to the largest map. "Anyways, the second aura is here." She pointed to a tiny speck on the map. Kaitlyn read the note next to it, and said it was called Macomb, Illinois.
"Illinois?" Pit said in excitement. "Like, where Chicago is?"
"Chicago is up here," Kaitlyn said, pointing up near a big blue section. "Macomb is a little ways away, but they're in the same state."
"That one has one of the most powerful auras," Viridi said with a nod. "The third one is the other powerful one, and it's right about here." Again, she pointed, but this time her finger moved to a completely different country.
Kaitlyn gave Viridi a questioning look. "Paris, France?"
Viridi nodded again. "Yes. The aura there is especially powerful. The last one is faint, but there's something very…odd about it." She pointed to another city, which Kaitlyn said was in Russia, a city called Moscow.
"What's so weird about it?" Pit asked.
"It's…pulsing, as though it's getting stronger. It was weak when I first sensed it, but it's getting stronger. I'd suggest getting that one last, because by that point, it might be strong enough for you to find on your own."
The two angels nodded. "So the closest place to here is the one in Colorado," Kaitlyn said. So we should go there first, then Macomb. I'm not sure how we'll get to France and Russia, though."
"Nighthawk should be able to help us there," Pit said confidently.
Viridi sighed. "I'll try to keep the weather as calm as possible for you, but I can only do so much." She rolled up the map and handed it to Pit. "Take this and be swift. From what I've heard, you only have six days left."
"We'll leave before dawn," Pit decided, taking the maps. He gave a short bow. "Thank you, Viridi."
The goddess gave a half-smile before grimacing and pressing a hand to her forehead. "You can repay me by stopping Eris. This stupid headache is getting really obnoxious!"
Pit grinned. "We'll do it."
And three weeks later, I post my next chapter (*sighs*) Sorry about that. I've been out of town, my regular editor was out of town, and my Beta was too, so it just took me a while to get this ready for you all.
Okay, first of all, a little disclaimer: Most of the Greek Mythology I've been writing is actually true to myths, BUT NOT ALL OF IT! Symphonia is my own creation, because I didn't want to use Aphrodite. Harmonia never actually had a daughter named Symphonia, so please, don't tell your teacher that they're wrong and Symphonia is actually real, because she's not. Also, Harmonia and Eris were never actually siblings. They were, like, four cousins ten times removed, or something crazy like that.
So please, don't tell me that you're learning about Greek Mythology thanks to me, because you're probably not. If you actually want to know the true stuff, I can get you links to the websites I used (mostly Wikipedia and small mythology websites, also books). Some of the true stuff: Eris does have an Apple of Discord, Harmonia does have a Harmony Coin, Mnemosyne does have a big book where she writes down languages and memories, Harmonia is married to a mortal man, most of them have interactions with Zeus at one time or another, and a bunch of other stuff. But know that I am mixing truth with fiction and taking some liberties here.
Anyhow, hope you enjoyed Viridi (I know half of you have been begging for her to be in the story for a VERY long time), and thanks for reading!
As always, I love reviews :) Just got my first piece of anon hate mail a few days ago (for Grounded). I give it 3 stars for creativity and 2 for length. It even had a bleeped out swear word! Wow! I didn't know my work caused such rage in people :) It was about Kaitlyn, who I usually hear good things about Kaitlyn, but I guess everyone is entitled to their opinions!
Anyways, please review! I love reviews :)
