Chapter 9

I woke up an hour later than I was supposed to causing me to rush in everything. Getting dressed, getting weapons, getting out the series of caves, then finally going to the Wolf House.

I didn't see that mysterious lady at all nor her wolves making me nervous, She could've been working for the enemy.

But I tried not to dwell on it too much as I flew to the coordinates of the Wolf House. After five minutes of flying, I was right above it. Using my super vision, I scouted around the base and was shocked.

There is over a hundred monsters here. Some legends in the mythology books the mortals have written. I looked for scouts and look outs but I couldn't see any. I shrugged. Might as well go out with a bang.

I circled higher and then dropped like a torpedo above. I got closer and faster before I broke through the roof and vaporized a working dracaenae. It hissed as it exploded in yellow dust. Then every monster in the building stopped working when they saw me.

I looked up and smirked. "Sorry to crash the party. But they ain't no party WITHOUT ME!"

And with those two words I set to work. Long story short, I defeated the small army of monsters with a lot of screaming, blood, and powers. My favorite saying is. No Pain, No Gain. So since I felt pain, I'm sure I'm about to gain something.

I grabbed my backpack out of mid-air and opened it. I searched around before I finally found it. X-Ray goggles. The backpack vanished and I put the goggles on, switching my vision to X-Ray.

I looked around and saw nothing. At first I was confused. Was the information wrong or something? But Chaos' information is never wrong. So I looked around again and still couldn't see anything. I was so confused that I became angry.

Then I face-palmed. She's right below me. I looked down and sure enough I saw a girl about year or two older than me being guarded in a cell by four hellhounds. This just got a lot harder.

I took off the X-Ray goggles and threw them away. I didn't need them anymore when I had more than enough extras. I looked down and with a grunt I punched through the floor. I grabbed the inside of the hole and ripped another part of the floor off.

The hellhounds saw me of course and started running at me so I had to jump down. As soon as I landed they were on me. I ducked as the first hellhound leaped at me. He flew over me and I backed into the corner and started to speak to them telepathic.

Me: Guys stand down. Your patron, Erebus is my uncle and I don't think he'd like you to kill me. And since your from Tartarus my patron will send you back and never let you out again if you kill me.

HellHound: How do we know you speak the truth.

Me: Tartarus shall show you then.

I waited a couple minutes for the sign to show up but it never did. I heard the hellhounds laughing as they thought they were going to kill me but I smirked. As they lunged I let loose a ring of godly aura, killing them and sending them straight to Tartarus.

I turned around and noticed that I blasted the cell open and the girl was cowering in the corner. I walked through the debris, towards the girl. She looked up and my breath was caught in my throat.

Even though she was dirty, she dummy pretty with high cheek bones and perfect full lips... Wait what the hell! I'm not supposed to think like that! I crouched next to her and started talking to her.

"Hey. I was sent to save you form this place. And give you a home. I'm not going to force you, but do you except this offer. I swear on the River Styx I'm not going to hurt you."

Throughout the talking, I smelled vetiver, with hints of wintergreen. The longer I sat there, the more lightheaded I became. I jumped up and away from her.

She sniffled and said. "I'm sorry. When my emotions are high, my powers go haywire."

I sighed as the lightheadiness went away. "It's okay. So do you want me help you or not?"

She sniffed and got up. "Yes. I'd like you to help me."

I nodded and I told her to follow me, but as she walked forward, she fell, but I caught her.

"I'm going to carry you. Is that all right?"

She nodded and I picked her up bridal style before I flew out the holes in the floor and the roof and towards the camp the wolves were at. As I was getting there, Aine wrapped her hands around me neck so she could get in a better position.

My face flushed red in embarrassment but quickly dissipated as I landed and saw the female wolf walking up to me.

"So your mission is complete?" She asked.

"Yes. I just need to find a place for her to stay."

"I already have one in mind. Pray to the goddess Artemis and give her Aine so Aine can become a hunter."

I nodded. "Sounds like a plan."

As I was about o fly off, the lady stopped me and touched my forehead pulsing a sliver light. After a couple seconds she let go and I felt stronger and more wild.

She looked at me. "That is my gift. I gave you the knowledge on how to use it and control it. When you do, you will become the feared mortal in all history. I wish you luck young Perseus."

I growled. "My name is Nexus. And speaking of names. What's your name?"

She smiled. "It's Lupa."

My eyes widened and I bowed my head to her in respect. She laughed and I looked up.

"You must pray to Artemis at midnight when she is strongest."

I nodded and finally I flew off into the sky. The sun was setting and the sky was orange. I flew around looking for the best place to meet the goddess of the hunt when I saw a small clearing that was filled with wild animals.

I flew down there and waited for the moon to rise. As I waited, I heard rustling behind me. I turned around summoning my sword and pointed it at the rustling noise.

"Who's there!?"

There's the chapter! Hope you enjoyed! Feel free to give me ideas!
