and last but not least
Peace in Alaska
Hope you enjoy this chapter!
A lot of it is in Zeus' POV but some in other characters.
-Peter (PerseusJFAN1016)
POV: Hecate:
Finally I found out how I was going to connect Hades into the mix. This part was going to be simple but I needed to confirm that Zeus and Hera would have no idea about my plan.
I already had the first step of my plan figured out het Hera pregnant- check
The next step was to get Poseidon to finish his relationship with Sally by betting her pregnant then I could combine the two children to create a mix of Poseidon, Zeus, and Hera.
Adding my gene to the pool was very simple. All I needed was for the mortal, Sally Jackson, to drink a special tonic that was prepared ahead of time. As long as some of my genes were added a head of time then it would go smoothly. The same would go for Hades, but the genes from Hades might prove a little more difficult then hoodwinking Zeus and Hera for he was slightly more intelligent.
"Hecate? What are you up to?" I murmured to myself. The last time I meddled in the affairs of the gods rather disastrous thing happened. But with the great prophesy coming into action soon I supposed that it was a god thing that I was meddling. Maybe for once I will actually do something to help the gods. That's right this one favor and then they will owe me forever. I grinned and went back to my planning. I glanced at the list of characteristics that the child would have both physical and mental.
Physical Characteristics:
Name-Perseus
Hair Color-black
Eye color-bluish-green eyes
Height-to be determined after more extensive research and thought
Mental: Smart, loyal, brave, etc
I nodded to myself please with what I had so far. Of course the finer details would be worked out later, but I now knew exactly how I wanted Perseus to turn out. It was only how I was going to make sure he was exactly like this.
POV: Zeus
Gods I am so lucky that Hera agreed to giveaway the child, to the mortal Sally Jackson. It was really easy all we needed to do was to carefully take the child out of Hera's womb and insert it into the womb of the mortal's. It was a very easy process for us but the mortal will experience minimal pain.
I shook my head trying to rid my head of the thoughts. Finally, we would be rid of the stress of the child and go back to the way we usually were. Fighting with Hera was not exactly pleasant, but I have been doing that for so long now it is fairly simple for me to do. I barely even break a sweat now, unless of course she is really angry then maybe... no not a chance. I will not bow down to Hera for gods sakes. I, Zeus, who defeated Kronos will not bow down to my own wife and sister.
"Are you ready?" Hera whispered as she flashed to my side
"As ready as I'll every be." I shot back, to which she rolled her eyes to. I gritted by teeth in annoyance and being a gentleman I opened the door for her. I really just wanted to slam the door in her face though. As if she heard that she gave me a heavy glare. I huffed but continued into the house. I wanted to get this done with quickly.
OH MY GODS...!
I ran out of Sally Jackson's apartment as fast as I godly could. Then I realised that I could have flashed out, damn. But hey hearing your older brother doing things with women is not a walk in the park. I was prepared for what I thought was anything, even Poseidon blowing up at my plan, but I did not plan for Poseidon to be breaking the Oath with the mortal. He knows the dangers of being sexually involved with women. I gulped as Hera came out of the apartment muttering stuff about a disgrace to marriage. I knew she was thinking about the fact that Poseidon was doing stuff with a woman who wasn't his wife. I mean it wasn't like that was a huge crime. I broke my vow more than a hundred times. But don't tell Hera that I recently started seeing another woman.
Hey! I couldn't help myself, she was just so beautiful. As a god I am naturally attracted to beautiful women, however ever since the Oath I was more selective. Of course, I was not sexually involved with every woman I "courted" I would way more children if I did. It was only with this mortal was i completely intruiged. She made me work for it, something not many women did. However, she knew when to give up with her stubbornness.
I waited and waited for Poseidon to leave and in a few hours I saw him exit with a huge smile on his face. Gods, when his wife finds out I hope I am no where near both of them. Hera was positively glowering at Poseidon but opened the door to see the mortal laying down sans clothes on the couch of the rather small apartment. I hope she wouldn't mind but I was going to thank her for relieving me of the child. Maybe I wasn't really in the mood to be to generous now, with the child and all. Hera glared at me the entire time I walked through into the living room. I didn't understand why until I though of what I was seeing.
Okay, just because I see a woman without clothes doesn't mean I am enjoying it. Well, maybe I was this time but still.
I quickly said the incantation and called for Apollo to help. It was hard to bend my pride but I knew that since Apollo was the god of medicine/healing then he would be able to help if anything went wrong. With the help of Apollo we managed to put the child in Sally's stomach and quickly left before anyone could return. I was certain that he would not appreciate what we just did to his lover.
"Zeus, now that I am free are we going back to the way we were?" Hera said snuggling next to my side.
"Yes, my dear everything will be just the way it was before."
I fell asleep with Hera in my arms, promising myself that tomorrow things would go back to the way there were.
The Next Day...
I woke up and Hera was gone from my arms. I knew that today I promised that things would return to the usual way but I couldn't help but miss the times when Hera was totally dependant and kind to me. It was actually a huge relief not to have to worry about keeping her happy.
I pushed that thought aside as simply a guilty feeling. Oh shoot I just realised that I blew off the date with the mortal. We were looking forward to the date for sometime now. I was planning to bed her that night but I suppose I could also just do that later on. It was easy to get back with mortal women, just a nice present a good excuse and there you have it, she forgives you.
I smiled and thought of the fact that she was going to be begging for me tonight. I quickly jumped out of the bed and changed out of my purple monkey pajamas. Yes, I know I wear purple monkey pajamas but saw anything and I will blast you to pieces. I chose my regular suit and tie and rushed out of the bedroom, eager to get back to the mortal who had captured my attention. I stopped dead in my tracks as I spotted my wife in the dining area of the palace.
"Why what are you doing here?" I asked pleasantly trying to hid my smile.
"I was thinking and I am tired of fighting. I know you are such an ass but I am willing to give this another shot as long as you don't cheat again, in the near future I suppose. Since you can never keep it within your pants for long." She mused as if the very thought was amusing. I glared at the comment and she quickly arose form the stood, in which she was sitting on, and wrapped her arms around me waist.
BONUS! I could have my fun with the mortal woman and my wife was willing to not try to fight with me. Yeah, yeah I knew I was going to break my vow tonight but did it really matter? My wife was going to be nice to me until she found out about my new lover. What is not to like?
"Hera, I know that you aren't happy with me but I am willing to give this a shot." I said acting now, with my poker face on. I knew it I should also be "The god of theater" since my acting skills are off the hook. I grinned at my joke and of course Hera thought of it in a different way and she pressed her face into my shoulder. I leaned in and kissed her forehead before replying. "I need to take care of some business but I will be free to spend sometime with you tomorrow if you want." Perfect, now she wouldn't be bothering me tonight until tomorrow. As long as I returned by tomorrow I should be good. I walked out of the palace a free and happy man or should I say god?
POV: Hecate
Perfect. Zeus and Hera did as I assumed and now their child was growing safely in the body of the mortal, Sally Jackson. I mixed the three tonics together. One tonic was the genes of Hades, the other was my own personal genes, and the last but not least's tonic was the potion that would allow the child from Poseidon and Sally to fuse with the child of Zeus and Hera.
Finally the final stage in my master plan was to be complete soon. I had already collected Hades' genes from a cup he used earlier and I added my genes to the mixture so that the child would also inherit my powers of magic and safe crossings to the other worlds of gods.
I quickly slipped into the house/apartment of Sally Jackson and poured the mix of potions into a cup in the fridge. Now all I needed to do was make sure she drank it within six hours. That would be easy as she would have to wake up in two hours now, for her work. I slipped away but not before setting an invisible video camera so that I can be sure that she did indeed ingest the potion.
"Hecate!" I turned around quickly but there was no one to be seen. I started to get worried but I forced myself to calm down. It wouldn't help for me to become panicked.
"Hello?" I called out, I was getting more nervous.
"Hecate" The voice was faded now, but I recognized it. It had been a very long time since I had heard it.
"My Lord, Kronos" I bowed deeply. "What can I do for you?" I asked
"I want your boy. Not now but soon"
