I know I know. Two non-book chapters in a row. Big no no.
This was originally supposed to be the beginning of A God Buys Us Cheeseburgers but I ended up deciding that it would make the chapter too long so now it's its own chapter!
I.O.N.
Enjoy!
Last time: Dionysus looked at Destiny and then at everyone sleeping, "Do you suppose we should wake them?" Destiny smiled and shook her head.
"Let them sleep a while longer. The book is almost over but the story is just beginning."
Now:
BANG!
Everyone jolted awake, instantly alert in a way that only someone who just woke up from a deep could be.
CRASH!
The older demigods noticed it was coming from the kitchen. With the grace that only a demigod could possess they made their way towards the kitchen door.
When they kicked it open they didn't really know what to expect. But it sure wasn't what they saw.
The kitchen was a disaster area. Substances of all color and consistency were covering every flat surface except the table. On the table was the most delicious breakfast anyone had ever seen.
There were pancakes, waffles, french toast, chipmunk holes, toast, omelets, scrambled eggs, cereal, bacon, bread pudding, cinnamon rolls, beagles, croissants, muffins, English muffins, fried eggs, quiche, donuts, toaster strudels and scramblers, biscuits, and sausages.
They came in all different flavors and colors, along with the widest variety of syrups, butter, and jams.
The drinks were just as varied. Milk, orange juice, apple juice, tea, water, grape juice, fruit smoothies, pear juice, kool aid, coffee, and wine.
Everyone in the room drooled just a little when a waft of scented air passed by them.
Zeus was the first to regain his composure, "Hestia do you know who made all of this?" Hestia smiled, still in the food daze, and shook her head in the negative.
Suddenly a sign appeared out of nowhere.
'What are you waiting for?
Dig in!'
That's all the encouragement they needed. As one they descended upon the food. The table they sat at was big enough to seat all of them comfortably, as they ate and chatted.
Finally, as they finished Destiny walked in and immediately burst into laughter.
They had been so caught up with the smell of food that they didn't even notice their clothes had become p.j.'s overnight.
When she finally calmed down she clapped her hands and the mess they had made disappeared but their p.j.'s remained. At their questioning looks, she smiled and said, "Until lunch, it'll be nice to just wear comfy clothes for a while.
They all returned to the throne room and Destiny handed Ares the book.
He opened it and began.
Hope you enjoyed!
Sorry if it took a while to get out.
See you guys next time!
