Jacob's POV

Master Force… They were talking about him before at my house. My house. My parents must be worried. I will get back to them, but first I want answers.

"Who are you?" I asked

"Did I not just tell you, child?"

"I want to know… what you are. Super Incantatio me said he was a mortal, god, and a superhero. Are you those things too?"

"Rob, or Super Incantatio, is a special superhero. He is the son of the Greek Goddess of Magic, Hecate and… me. I am a mortal superhero. That is why he says he is a god, a mortal, and a superhero."

"Oh. So you and Hecate. How'd that work out?"

He looked like he wanted to punch me in the face. Instead he said,

"Are you familiar with Greek Mythology, Jacob?"

He knows my name? Does he stalk me? Based on the computers showing cameras all around the city, I think it's a possibility.

"Yes."

"Good. Then that means you know gods and goddesses never stay with mortals. Correct?"

"Yes, but-"

"If you have questions about our relationship, ask her today. We are having a meeting with them to restore our power."

"Huh?"

He rolled his eyes like I should know the answer, sighed, and said, "Every month all Twelve Olympians plus Hecate and Hades come and give us power. Hades doesn't give power. He comes to monitor the event. All 12 of us, or 13 now that you're here are blessed by a god or goddess who gives them some of their power. Except for Rob, of course. He doesn't need to be! I am blessed by Hecate which is why… you know. Some gods bless more than one person and sometimes, very rarely, but sometimes two gods will bless one mortal. Any more questions?"

"You said I'm one of them? How?"

"How you ask. I'm not sure how, exactly, but you are definitely one of us. You have much power you don't even know of. I'm not sure exactly what power you have but being around you is how I feel when I'm in the presence of Z-"

"Who?"

"Nobody. Just sit on the chair on the left of mine. The gods will be here any moment. I hope you can guess which is mine.

"Yes, master."

"Oh, please don't call me master. It gets annoying. Call me by my real name. Bill. Now sit in your chair and I will be inside in a moment."

"Yes, Bill."

I sat down in my chair. It was a nice black leather chair. Sitting here made me feel…powerful. Maybe the gods made it feel that way. Well, "The gods will be here any moment." Bill had said.
