"You know this is risky, right?" asked Regina.
"I know." said Piper. "But I'm willing to take the risk."
"Remember that when we do the spell, you see Aphrodite, not your mother." said Emma. "She will not have the mercy your Aphrodite would show you."
"I know." said Piper.
A black truck approached and David and Mary Margaret came with Maleficent.
"Who's she?" asked Annabeth.
"I'm Maleficent." said Maleficent.
"You're entrusting Piper's life with Maleficent!" said Jason, drawing his sword out.
"Relax, child." said Maleficent. "I know what I'm doing. I'm one of the greatest sorceresses in existence."
"It's not that part I'm unsure of. How can we trust you?"
"She isn't a villain anymore, ever since she had her daughter returned to her, she became good." said Regina.
"Okay..." said Jason, still not trusting her.
"In order to summon a goddess we need blood from the girl." said Maleficent.
"What?! No?!"
"Relax, Jason. I trust her." said Piper and held out her finger.
David bought Maleficent's spinning wheel from the truck and Piper pricked her finger. Blood oozed from it and a singular drop went on top of a mirror and the mirror turned into a dark red as the blood magically disappeared.
"Now I will be needing a hair sample from two couples. One from the demigods and one from Storybrooke." said Maleficent.
Annabeth and Percy pulled a singular hair strand out and Mary Margaret and David did the same and twisted the hair samples together and placed them on the mirror and it glowed. A pink light flew from the mirror and it formed a beautiful woman. She had long, blonde hair, perfect skin, radiant, light ocean blue eyes and had a stunning pink dress.
"Why do you summon me?" asked Aphrodite.
"We came seeking the Vault of Love." said Annabeth. "Can you please help us?"
"Hmm, the Vault of Love you say? Oh dear, you are so beautiful though may I add," said the goddess and looked at Percy. "Oh, do I sense chemistry between the two of you?"
The two of the blushed.
"Yes." they replied.
"How... revolting." said Aphrodite in disgust. "I won't get you into the Vault of Love with these monstrosities around me."
"Hey! You don't think we deserve to love each other?!" shouted Percy.
"Relax," whispered Regina. "What he meant to say is why?"
"I humbly don't wish you to be there, it's a place where the greatest treasures amongst all Aphrodites lie." said Aphrodite. "And love? Ugh, terrible. You should understand more than anyone, Regina, how love is weakness."
"No, love is a strength." said Mary Margaret. "For a love goddess, you don't seem to like it."
"Love destroyed my life!" shouted Aphrodite. "Once upon a time, I was in love as well. His name was Hephaestus and then he was murdered by Ares himself. Ares always had a large crush on me and so he did anything to get rid of Hephaestus and succeeded."
"No, you chose to be with Ares." said Annabeth.
"Maybe in your world, but here... no. Me and Hephaestus loved each other and he took that away from us. I refuse to let you in the Vault. Good day!"
Then Aphrodite vanished in a puff of pink smoke and was gone.
