"Sooooo?" Zeus asks, his eyes looking around the council led by his daughter. His eyes swimming around the room, unable to look into her eyes as she sat by the large table.
The hilarious sight of the god's majestic and powerful form, cowering beneath his daughter's glare, would be a sight to behold if not the fact that everyone around them didn't even dare to breathe.
The said daughter, looks back with grey dead eyes, her chin situated upon her hand as she glared at her father. "Could you tell me how this happened?"
Zeus audibly gulps, "Well, I heard Attie was with her father at this restaurant, you know. The one built by Remulus?"
A blonde man spoke up, a radiant smile on his lips. "Oh? You mean Taste of heaven? That place is awesome!"
Another one then spoke up, a cup of wine on his lips. "Ha! You mean the one I partly own!?"
"Its decided then!" A man stands up, wings on etched on the soles of his shoes. "Let's go-"
"Shut up!" Athena roars, and the room drops to a silence as her eyes go to the three men, "Apollo, Dionysus and Hermes. If you speak out of turn again. I will end you."
"Yes, ma'am." The three straighten their backs.
Zeus coughs in his hand. "As I was saying, when I arrived, I came upon Remulus dining with Arthur Pendragon, Vlad Dracul and Princess Attie."
He stands up, his arms raised, his face filled with tension. "I came upon them eating and enjoying their time with me, obviously, that is, until."
He stills the room at the edge of their seat before he explodes. "She arrives!" A small thunder erupts behind him, and the rest chuckles.
Athena glares at her father. "Please avoid the dramatics. I want to know how Asmodeus was even allowed to enter a room."
"Oh, she went in disguised as Michael. Then she fought, talked and maybe made out with Remulus. But it all stopped until Leonard arrived." Zeus shrugs as he explains.
Athena's mouth twitches in irritation, "Could you give me more details?"
"Nah." Zeus responded as he sat back down. "There's nothing important there. Well, maybe where I Attie asked to be removed from all her duties, but that's about it."
Athena holds her head as a migraine makes its way to her head, an impossibility for those with divinity, but no one said Zeus couldn't do the impossible.
She glares at his smug smile. "Artemis, shoot him in the balls."
A green-haired girl stood up and aimed her bow. "Got it. How many arrows?"
"Go nuts." Athena snaps her finger as his seat holds him down.
"Wait! Sorry! Sorry! This time, I'll make it clear. I promise!" Zeus shouts, struggling against his restraints. "Dammit, Hephaestus." He then sees the arrows, "I'll say it, I'll say it!"
Athena raises her hand, and Artemis lowers her bow. She sat back as Athena spoke, "Now, father. I hope this one will hold no interruptions."
"Yeah, yeah. I got it." Zeus nods fervently.
'''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''
"Oh, my~" A woman gives out a soft purr. "That sounds like quite a thought, doesn't it? Remulus and Michael, there's even history there, right?"
The woman claps, "Ooooh! I have to write this down." She stands up. "I'll be right back. Wait for me, or not, I don't really care."
Athena massages her head. "Hephaestus, please bring back your wife." With no answer to her order, she looks to his seat, only to see a robot.
"Beep boop, I'm Hephaestus. I'm listening intently to this meeting. Beep boop, I'm not at my place doing whatever the fuck I want. Beep boop." The robot waves its hand as the room gapes.
The man sitting beside it, touches it. "You know, I'm more impressed by the fact that none of us actually noticed him missing." The man accidentally rips the arm off. "Oops."
Athena sighs, "Ares, bring back Aphrodite."
The man looks at her. "Why me?"
She just gestures at the door as he grumbles, "You sleep with someone once, then you become her babysitter." He crosses his arm. "You know, I'm starting to hate this. I might rebel at this rate."
The room stops from his words. Ares freezes before it explodes in laughter. It left even Athena chuckling as she gestures him to the door. "You won't, Ares. I know you won't."
"What!? You think I can't win or something!?" He huffs in anger before.
Athena waves away the thought with a chuckle. "No, it's because you're not that stupid."
He stops in thought before grumbling through the door, "I hate the fact that you're right." He glances at her. "Your smug face isn't helping!"
The door closes behind him, as Athena turns her attention back to her father, who stood up before he tiptoes to the door. He then freezes as Athena sighs.
"Can you tell me again why you decided to allow my daughter to stay with a demoness?" Athena raises an eyebrow as Zeus rubs the back of his head.
"Well, there's a reason. I just thought that maybe the safest place for her to stay was beside him and besides, she won't hurt Attie at all. I'm sure Remulus would protect her." Zeus gives her a smile.
"Did it ever occur to you that, this demoness? Does not need actual power to influence the heiress of Olympus." She facepalms, "She is the literal demoness of lust. That crazy bitch could turn my naïve little daughter into her fucking minion."
Zeus stops and raises a finger, "Actually." only to lower it down. "I did not think of that."
She sighs again; the migraine increasing in intensity as she stands up. "Fine, I'll be taking my daughter back," she looks around, "I want all of you to stay here until I do so."
Dionysus though raises his hand, "Uh... Who's in charge while you're gone?"
Athena glares at her father, who just wryly smiles at her. She breathes out another sigh. "Zeus becomes my regent while I'm gone. Don't mess it up."
She then leaves through the door and the moment that door clicked, Zeus shouts. "The party king is back, baby! Let's do this!"
Dionysus throws out plastic cups as gallons of wines appear, and the room explodes into shouts. Ares and Aphrodite coming back to the sounds of a party. It took a minute before it turns into a full-blown party, with drinks handed out by Dionysus.
Artemis just shrugs as she swipes through her phone, the celebration coming to a halt as the door opens in fury, Athena storming into the sight of her family chanting beside the table as Zeus throws out a pong and Apollo chugs a barrel of wine.
Athena stood there as the party drops to a silence, the seconds passing by as she forces out a smile. "I'm going to give you guys a minute."
She closes the door behind her as the sounds of explosions and shouts erupt through the door. Her hands were over her face, massaging it back to normal.
A minute passes and she opens the door, coming back inside as if nothing happened, her face a mix of fury and humiliation as Zeus asks, "What happened my dearest daughter?"
She huffs back to her seat; her face turning in disgust as she could feel something wet in her ass. "The next time you ever do this, please at least wipe the chairs down."
The synchronized nod was all she needed as she spoke. "I was pushed out."
Zeus smiles, "Oh? What do you mean-"
"He pushed my face through the door and closed it!" She roars as the surrounding gods and goddesses lowers their heads, turning their sight away from her.
Their faces barely holding back their laughter.
Athena breathes out another sigh as she leaves once more. "Just do what you want. You guys are way too drunk to talk to already."
She slams the door behind her as the room explodes into another party.
