Apollo's smile rose with the sun. Even as he willed the sun to rise, the gradually lightening sky set his mind at ease. After centuries of habit the familiar motion continued to affect him.
Apollo wondered if this was how Percy Jackson felt, watching a promise from gods being kept. A sense of knowing that you were helping others greatly. But there was something beginning to prod at his mind. A little nagging sense of... Apollo's thoughts were abruptly disrupted when he felt the approaching form of Athena.
He turned, giving her his best smile. "Yes, sister dear?"
"Apollo-" was all he heard before what had been a nagging sensation exploded into a full on vision.
The whole world was made of light. Flames lit up everything. Animals, homes, plants, people - all of them burning. An echoing laugh filled the air. Before Apollo had a chance to recognize anything past the scenery, the vision switched to a different location. There were gods- by Zeus there were so many gods. United in fighting what Apollo could only guess was a Primordial. She glowed, but in a different way than the flames. Her's was an eerie moonlight glow of lost planets and dying stars. But what concerned him the most was the image of his sister falling. Falling and falling and no one even spared her a glance. Artemis' body became just another lifeless body bleeding out ichor as she slowly died. Moments later she disappeared and the moon was swallowed by the sky.
"Artemis!" he couldn't help but scream the image of her lifeless body burned into his mind.
"Apollo! Apollo it's fine! She is fine! Your sister hasn't died!" Athena countered her face contorted into horror.
A shuddering breath made its way through his body. The images were already disappearing. "What did I say, Athena? No, don't just stare at me like that. What did I say?"
Athena pressed her lips together. "I believe you just predicted the fall of the Golden Age."
Apollo shuddered once more before nodding. "Come. We must speak to Zeus. Immediately."
Suddenly the act of rising the sun didn't seem nearly as calming.
