Medusa
Disclaimer: I do not own Greek Mythology.
And so the tragedy begins.
Medusa POV
"It was a wonderful day. It was really bright outside and everyone was happy. So I decided to thank my goddess for the beauty of the time. I threw on my most beautiful dress, and put my hair up in a neat bun.
I ran out the door into the flood of sunlight. "Hey pretty lady, did you decide to marry me yet!" Screamed a man with really unhealthy teeth, I did not even know his name. "No, hope you can wait until I lose my mind." I said calmly, I was so happy nothing could ruin this day.
As I was walking I ran into a friend. "Hello Medusa! This beautiful day, who would of thought!" I smiled. "I know, I am going to Athena's temple to thank her!" I answered. "Well I better let you be on your way! Goodbye!" She said. I just smiled, completely unaware that that would be the last smile we exchanged.
As I stepped up the stairs of the temple, I bowed my head in reverence. I, like not many other girls, was glad of my bide of chastity, no man ever caught my eye even though I was unable to marry anyway. But that is beside the point.
When I had gotten to the beautiful 40 foot statue of the goddess, I knelt, ready to embrace in thankful prayer, when footsteps came from behind me. I turned in wonder, everyone knew you were to wait if someone was already praying. But who I saw was not someone who listened to rules.
It was the god of seas, storms, and earthquakes. Poseidon. I knew that Athena despised Poseidon, but he was a god, so I knelt, quietly, waiting for him to move along. He didn't.
He grabbed me and pulled me close to him, my eyes were wild with misunderstanding. When he started to pull off my dress I knew something was wrong. I started to try to get away, but his strong arms were to much. The most horrid thought entered my only was I being raped, I was being raped in my goddesses temple.
I kicked and thrashed as he pulled all the clothes from my body, it was terrifying, being so helpless, so vulnerable. He would not let me go, it was agonizing being able to do nothing but let the man touch and kiss me.
What seemed like hours passed. When he finally let me go, walking away laughing. By that time I was completely unclothed, tear drenched and devastated. I grabbed my flat dress and pulled it over me in quickness.
Athena POV
My own temple. Almost completely ruined. My most fair and trusted maiden, had had sex in my temple. It was obviously her fault, for it is completely predictable that a god would do such a thing, and Poseidon is a god, he does what he wants. But I am a goddess, and I will get my revenge on Medusa whatever I do.
Medusa POV
Then I felt a tingle go down my spine.
Writing about someone being raped is kind of hard, especially for a boy, so cut me some slack about the not sexy stuff. Review if you have something NICE to say.
