... I OWN NOTHING! *Door slams


Chapter 22: Kidz

Hades


After getting stuck with Demeter and Zeus the kid, let's just say I want to get out of this house. Demeter's continuous chatter on cereal, Zeus's continuous complains. If I wasn't stuck like this I would've left already.

Actually once there was a time where Zeus had gotten so bored he started acting like a kid in the room. He would ask too many questions. It's annoying really. He's still in the room!

"So Hades, can you play a game with me?" Zeus said smiling like a small child. I looked at the clock on the wall of the room. It was just ten in the morning!

I groaned "Fine!" I said "What do you want to do ?"

"I don't know what do you want to do?"

"I want to sleep? Read perhaps?"

"Other than that" Zeus said frowning.

"Alright, do you know how to play chess?"

"No" he said

"Do you want to know how?"

"Sure!" he said enthusiastically. He went to the drawer in the room, where our sisters had placed a couple of board games. He took out a wooden black and white board. I taught him the places of the pieces and their moves. After a few minutes of teaching, we started to play.

After two minutes of playing I was getting the upper hand, but I have to admit, he is good for a first timer. We both got so sick bored that we started to play rock paper scissors. It had started after lunch. And then Poseidon entered the room

"Hey guys" he said and I was still playing with kid Zeus "What's going on"

"Playing Rock paper scissors." Zeus said playfully "I already have 1763 points"

"HELP!" I said pleadingly "He's been driving me nuts for the past four hours"

"Hey, we did that before." Poseidon said "I remember reaching 1 million"

"Oo!" Zeus said "I want to do that too! 1770"

"Thanks a lot Poseidon" I grumbled

"Anything for you big bro" he said smirking then he left the room. Sometimes I hate having brothers. They can be so annoying.

Even before, Poseidon was slightly getting on my nerves. Slightly because that time I also wanted to play with another boy. Can you imagine spending twenty four hours a day for little over one millennia with three girls? And you can't escape those three. Like me right now. Then a totally genius plan came into my mind.

"Hey Zeus" I said "I am really tired; I need to go to sleep. Maybe you could bother Poseidon."

He just shrugged "Sure why not" he said finally leaving me some peace.


I thought I would have a peaceful weekend. But sadly…no. I woke up to little kid…kids.

"Wha!" I sat up. And was shocked with what I was seeing. A blast from the past, a small child with unruly black hair and sparkling green eyes was lying on my stomach.

"Poseidon?" I asked bewildered.

"Yep!" he said cheerfully "Wazzup bro"

"Why are you soo…"

"Small? Young? Hyperactive?" Zeus added

"Yeah that"

"Well" Poseidon said "apparently we don't have school till Tuesday because of the storm"

"What storm?" I asked then thunder rumbled outside.

"That storm" Poseidon said "Well we wont have classes on Monday so our dear sisters thought it would be hilarious to turn me into a child to keep this twit company"

"Hey!" Zeus said "I'm not a twit"

"Of course, you aren't" Poseidon said sarcastically "So I think I'm stuck like this for a while. Or at least until our dear sisters decide that I don't like being punished when I haven't done anything"

He said the last part a little louder and he was shouting towards the door. Probably hoping that Demeter would change him back. Which is highly unlikely.

Demeter's godly powers don't include de aging someone. That would be Hestia. I remember back then she had used me as a training dummy. I hated every second of it.

"Not my doing Poseidon!" Demeter called back. "And I told you two not to wake Hades. Do you two want to return to the corner?"

Poseidon and Zeus looked at each other with a twinge of fear in their eyes. Poseidon jumped off my bed and along grabbed Zeus' hand. He pulled him all the way to the other room.

"We didn't do anything!" Poseidon screamed as they entered the other bedroom.

"WE'RE INNOCENT!"

The door slammed at the other room as Demeter had come into the room with what looks like another bowl of cereal.

She shook her head. "You two were a disaster all those years ago. I'm not sure how we're going to handle those two"

"Hey you're the one to talk" I said smirking "you use to join us in our antics"

"That was a long time ago" she said giving me the bowl of cereal. "Besides you blackmailed me into it. So technically I didn't do it willingly"

Swallowing a few spoons of cereal, I said "Well I never forced you at knife point so technically. You willingly joined us"

"Whatever" she said then there was a small thump of someone falling.

"Oww"

"I have to see what those two have done this time" she said she left the room. I grabbed the crutches from my bedside and went to see what had happened.

I walked to Demeter's room where the two were staying. Poseidon was rubbing his elbow looking down as Demeter scolded him.

"Why would you climb the cabinet? You could've ask for help"

"I'm sorry" he said "I won't do it again"

I smirked. Strangely, after being deaged. They actually act the age they were turned to. I've seen it a lot in Zeus, and now Poseidon. This will be an interesting weekend all right.


Monday morning, Demeter had finally allowed me to walk around a bit with the crutches, after much begging on my part I might add. The two were still kids and Poseidon was more agitated than ever. He's been begging to call Hestia to change him back.

"Please!" he said to Demeter "Come on. I don't like being a kid."

"Fine" Demeter said after Poseidon begged her for nearly an hour. She reached into her pocket and took out a drachma. "Call her."

"Yes!" he said getting the drachma "Come on, Zeus"

"Not until you finished the food on your plate" Demeter told Zeus, who was about to jump out of his chair. He stared at the last piece of toast on his plate. Then he picked it up then placed it on the placemat.

"Okay, I'm done!" he said jumping off.

"I told you to finish…"

"You told me to finish the food on my plate" Zeus said "It's not on my plate"

Demeter glared at him. Zeus scurried back to his chair and just took the piece of bread, taking a large bite on the way.

"Let's go!" he said to Poseidon as they both marched their way to the bathroom

I laughed at the my two little brothers. Demeter shook her head "Kids"
