Disclaimer: I do not own Greek Mythology
AN: I know what you're all thinking, where are Hades and Persephone? They're not at camp…yet. Don't worry I'll bring them in soon.
Let's Play a Love Game:
Eros cocked his boy as he aimed it at the heart of the unsuspecting girl. Hera was with another guy who was…wow Dionysus, this would be weird couple. Wait, why were they together in the first place? Maybe Hera was chewing him out for drinking all of Atlas's beer. That must be it. They couldn't be like, already a couple or anything.
"So…Artemis says we have to go out with each other." Hera mumbled reluctantly.
"Umbfmfgxdf." Dionysus muttered incomprehensibly. If there had been a police officer nearby he would have arrested him for drunk driving, disturbing the peace and basically anything that had to do with alcohol.
Hera threw her hands in the air and got to her feet, "You know what? I can't do this. I'll just go tell Artemis that this isn't going to work. I can put up with Zeus, and you need to go to Alcoholics Anonymous and…" Hera gasped. She had been struck be Eros's golden arrows. That drunken slob in front of her turned into the most handsome hunk of man in the world. She batted her eyelashes flirtatiously, "You know…I find your eternal drunkenness very attractive."
Dionysus, who was hit with a golden arrow a few seconds before Hera's comment, tried to muster a good pick-up line, "And you smell…purple." Hera squealed with glee.
Zeus was taking Hera's new hook-up with Dionysus really hard. He had locked himself in the latrine and had been singing love songs for the past few hours, "Baby come back!" He wailed. Another glass window on the mess hall shattered.
The goddesses were swimming in lake. Every since Ares had beaten the crap out of the Loch Ness monster it had been very peaceful there. Sure it had the habit of staining your swimsuit red whenever you took a dive but whatever, red is the new black.
Demeter covered her ears, "Yikes! Even yellow-bellied sapsuckers can sing better than him!"
Aphrodite was sunning herself on the beach, "It's so sad that Hera isn't grateful of Zeus's wooing. He could do so much better than her!"
Artemis broke through the surface of the water, "What are you talking about? Hera can do whatever she wants. Just because she doesn't want to go out with a player doesn't mean she is ungrateful."
Aphrodite waved her words away, "I don't think you know what you're saying. I mean you're in the woods all the time with like…bugs and stuff so it's not like you've had any experience in the love department."
That was the queue Poseidon was looking for. He ran down the dock in slow motion like some hunky lifeguard in a movie. He reached the edge of the dock and struck a heroic pose.
Artemis winced; he was overdoing this a little too much.
Poseidon pulled out a stack of index cards, "Artemis…will…you…go…out…with...me… question mark?"
Artemis inwardly groaned but she created a forced smile, "Yes!"
Athena's fruity drink spewed out her nose, "What!?"
Aphrodite's hand flew to her mouth, "Gasp!"
Demeter faked amazement, "Well call me a squirrel and shove a pinecone up my nose!" Everyone stared at her for a moment. She shrugged, "You pick up slang down on Texas cattle ranches."
An announcement came over the loud speaker. "All campers report to the mess hall immediately for dinner! Then you will receive your next activity!"
Poseidon was still reading off his cards, "Artemis…would…you…like…me…to…escort…"
"You can stop that now." Artemis said quickly.
Poseidon relaxed, "Did I do a good job?"
Hermes crumpled up a soda can and threw it to the mess hall floor. Like quick silver Demeter had risen to her feet and smacked Hermes upside the head, "Recycle fool!" She returned to her seat like nothing happened.
"Hippie Woman strikes again!" Apollo muttered. Just than Artemis and Poseidon entered the mess hall.
Athena rose to her feet and pointed, "I told you!"
Apollo's jaw dropped, "Get your paws off my sister!" He lunged for Poseidon but Ares and Zeus held him down, "Artemis! I thought we had something special!"
Artemis looked at him confused, "What are you saying? We're twins!"
Prometheus entered the room followed by Calypso who was strangely shooting Zeus fawning looks.
"Well I'm glad to see that romance is already blossoming because tonight's camp activity, or should I say activities, are spin the bottle and truth or dare!"
AN: I still need good ideas for activities that the gods can participate in. I'm thinking something like they have to face their biggest fears or something. R&R please.
