Chapter 8 - Battle of the gods

Inside the chamber of the gods

Can you all hear yourselves,Erebus burst out.

Selene is pregnant for a man who isn't fit for her as the moon goddess you're all happy.

And why is that a problem to you?,Selene Interrupts.

You are not in position to determine who I should love,and besides you've never cared about my life,why now?.

Yes,and we all are supposed to be discussing the affairs of the clans instead of arguing with each other, Zeus pointed out.

I agree with him,Poseidon affirmed.

Of course,"I agree with him",Erebus mimics.

You know what,you all are weak,short sighted and have no minds of your own.

You all answer and follow the footsteps of a weak leader who doesn't have foresight.

Watch your tone Erebus,Zeus warns now furious.

And what is going to happen? he asks mockingly.

In fact I challenge you to a duel to prove I'm a better leader than you, well unless you're too weak to prove it.

You are making a monumental mistake,Zeus spoke with fury evident in his voice.

I'm going to enjoy this.Erebus bragged.

Lightning flashes,dark magic spreads,and the two gods are engaged in a fierce battle.

Zeus is flung to a wall.

That's right,you're weak.

Erebus charges at Zeus and rams into the wall as Zeus dogged.

Erebus stands again and is hit brutally with Zeus's staff and flies to the other end of the room.

He's about to strike Erebus when his hands are wrapped in vines and thorns.

Lydia what are you doing?

This is where it ends,we're not going to be lead by you anymore,I have decided.....she is interrupted by a flash of light and is burned in the face by lightning,she tries to get up and is flung to the wall next to an already bleeding Erebus.

I should've known,you both never had good intentions.you should've been banished from this chambers a long time ago.

Since you've both decided to go against the progress of the chambers and the entire clans at large, "i hereby banish you both from the chambers of the gods, you are never to show your faces here again,for if you do you both will be executed.

Aware of the situation he was in,he gave Selene a death stare before fading out...

Andrey

So that was how Erebus and Lydia we're banished from the chambers of the gods,Homer explained.

What a hell of a story,I said. But I still don't see what I have to do with any of this.

On the day Selene was due to have her child strange things happened...

One faithful day

Selene had come to the white fang vampire clan to visit Zane alongside her very best friend,Rhea and was due to give birth by midnight.

Zane Salvatore

"Screams"!!!!!!!!(Selene in labor)

It's coming

Don't worry ma'am,just calm down

Take deep breaths, Nurse assures.

Ahhhhhhhhhhh!!!!!!!!!

You'll be fine.

Ok. Put her on the bed.

Ok ma'am,stay with us, we'll need your help now.

You're gonna have to push as hard as you can okay!!!

Yeh.....yessss!!!!! Ahhhhhh!!!!!!

Push!!!

"Continues screaming "

Okay he's out now ma'am take a deep breath.

Noooooo there's another one!!!!!!

What!!!!! No there's only one child in there,The Doctor says confused.

I said there's anotherrrrrrr!!!!!, she screams again.

Okay okay.

Sir please you'll have to come with me.

Okay,what is it?

Is she your wife? Doctor asks

Yes....no kinda

I'll need an answer,Sir.

We're not married yet.

Okay, something strange has happened, the scan we had previously showed only one child, but right now there's another one.

What!!!! How's that possible?

I don't know sir, but there's a slight complication so we'll need your consent to proceed with a surgery.

Oh, I

Her life depends on it sir.

Okay, where do I sign?

Hands him a document,sign here sir.

All done so, we may proceed but pls you're not allowed in the ward.

Are you sure.

Yes sir, He says and enters for the surgery.

Several hours later

The doctor calls me in.

She was asleep, she looks so beautiful.

They were boys, I'm a father.

I take the first one and hand the other to Rhea,They're beautiful,she says happily.

Yes they are I say kissing their foreheads.

I think I'll name you both Helios and Achlys.

Those are such beautiful names Zane ,Rhea affirms.

Yeah they are.

Moments later

Selene had woken up and was carrying her babies in both hands when we heard a thud on the roof.

A cloud of black and purple smoke burst in and a man standing on it.

Erebus!, Selene called out,what are you doing here?

Well,let's just say I'm here to congratulate you on the birth of your twins.....

I don't want you around here,she interrupts.

Oh well,this isn't really about what you want,but about what's rightfully mine,he said with a devious smile.

When are you gonna grow up,you'll never have the moon powers,she assured.

Okay,but the way I see it, I already do,he said as demons instantly filled the room.

It's time I take what's mine.

He drags Selene with a cloud of dark magic,and turns to leave but is blocked by a battalion of vampire soldiers.

He began to burn them and a battle began,midway into the battle the werewolves got the news and joined to assist the vampires who were now fighting a monster of dark magic. Large,covered in dark smoke and purple flames,pitch black eyes,and holding Selene to himself.

He killed many brave soldiers,and took Selene as hostage.This brought a great deal of sadness to both the vampires and werewolves.

Few weeks later,Zane came up with a strategy to rescue his mate and at least try to kill that bastard,but he died and then we were able to escape with Selene who was almost drained off her powers.
