Chapter 4

Oh no! What should she do, what should she do?! If Zeus finds out about this then she will be dead. Just then, a thought came to her.

The deity of time is more powerful than the deity of lightning! There was no need to worry about this. Sure, she needed to train with her powers, but time overpowers lightning any day.

Hera would train in Alaska. She would go there and practice her powers. But wait. Alaska was a state without any gods. That means she would be powerless there and only had powers equivalent of a mortal.

What about Antarctica? Most gods are miserable there, so no god or goddess would expect to for Hera to be there. Unknown to all, Hera was a goddess that could stand the cold. She had several charms that gave her 'warmth' from Hecate.

So she went there and started practicing.

Unknown to her, a silent figure stays in the shadows and camouflages with the ice and snow.

Hera turns. She is suspicious, but keeps walking. A few minutes late, she senses a very strong aura. The aura is equal to a… primordial! Hera cursed. She had to be extra careful now, or else she could end up annoying the primordial which was somewhere around here.

After 7 minutes, she freaked out and teleported to the North Pole.

A red-suited man with a white beard stood there, congratulating her.

He held a bright-red bulgy sack which contained … something. All around her where these little short tiny people that kept on singing terribly. A candy cane pole stood in front of her, with a little sign saying "Welcome to the North Pole". Hera by this time was wondering if she was hallucinating.

Unable to stand the creepiness of the fat bearded guy any longer, Hera teleported back to Antarctica.

She had that annoying feeling that felt like she was being stalked again. And then, a giant popped out of nowhere. Ugh, she always had hated this giant because he had wanted to marry her. This giant's name was Polybotes.

She began to back away slowly. Polybotes said, "Since you divorced Zeus, I can now force you to marry me". Hera began to panic. She did not go this far to escape from one terrible marriage to another terrible marriage. Polybotes walked towards her. Help, she thought. She did not want to seek help from Zeus and then risk being forced to marry him again.

Polybotes ran toward her. Hera said in English, "Stop it. Don't you dare take another step" Hera then yelled, "Στάση!" All of a sudden, time stopped. Hera yelled at him, "Take that, you loser". She had done this on instinct. She had not a single idea on how to do what she just did or how to resume time. She smirked. "That will teach you not to mess with me", she exclaimed. She held Polybotes with her foot and summoned a sword; it drove straight to Polybote's heart. Polybote's body dissolved straight into golden dust, in which blew away because of the wind.

She yelled, "Πάω!" Suddenly, time started again.

All of a sudden, she felt a sudden presence behind her. It was of a primordials' aura.

Hera had only time to blink before a bag flew over her head and an excruciating poison was injected into her arm.
