"Where have they gone"
Art mutter her hand laid over Shai's chest hyperventilating, she saw Shai holding onto her wrist sweating her eyes flickering around under her lids, Art peered at the figure,
"you said that the dove flew away, he flew away when I gave him to you did he say anything on what they were planning?" Art inquired her palm glowed gold stretching out over Shai's chest, witnessing the gold in her hair light the brown was back as her veins tried to get back its obscene shine. The figure observed them, his hand lightly brushed Shai's cheek and pulled some hair off her sweaty face.
"Somthing about Ares competence and Athena's patience might wear to thin and they need his brand of help.." The figure let out his eyes flickered across the two, he saw the effort that Art put in her warm energy, it pulsed under her hand straight into Shai's heart, keeping her stable, the energy flowing through her was erratic, it became a beacon to a dull brown that lost its shine, the figure held her hair back placing it into a braid,
"His brand of help is spilling tea to see where it lands, and it happens to be Ares temper every time" Art sighed
Art felt Shai's breath hitched as she turned her breathing getting slower, she felt her power come to a soft pulse under Arts hand, she sighed letting her go, she turned to the figure, a light sweat building up on her eyebrow,
"Hermes, where is he?" Art asked whipping her head walking to the bowl of water and ringing the towel, she placed it on Shai's head, moving some hairs figure forgotten,
"He had been sent a letter for Zeus, but he should be back if you call him." The figure responded
Art peered at him, she got up and let out, "Hermes went on a letter run, let me guess at Odin again or did Zeus tell him to find Isis in the sand again?"
"No he sent him of to condensation tactics for Dalo's other then that you know how it runs around this place stuff or people you need always seem out of reach," the figure answered his hue held a faint red glow as Art turned to him her bow in hand with an arrow appeared next to it,
"That or flat out missing" Art restored
She walked to the desk grabbing a near by owl feather covered in green ink, scrawled across the wooden side table parchment is placed, she glanced at the figure and motioned to it,
"This is how we ask" Art told him,
She wrote of Apollos where about asking Hermes to find him, and pull Apollo's head out of his inflated ass, she rolled it up grabbing her bow and arrow "watch Shai for me and..if this fails figure you go to them" Art explained strictly, tying the note to the arrow,
The figure nods witnessing her drifting to the window, her bow pulled back with the arrow stringed in the middle, she aimed staring into the vast space of the realms past the long borders of each until catching A faint silhouette gold mischievous smirk that was placed on his lips towards a faint outline she saw, a tall broad male form, a helmet That matched Hermes shoes, a small moving weapon On his hip while they talked or from what she saw. Hermes laughing with the silhouette who titled there head at him and lighting blue shot at him,
"Agian With The dress Hermes your going to get yourself into worse shit then before, and that I barely saved you from." Art sighed
The figure heard Art mumbling leaning over her shoulder seeing her bow and arrow, The string pulled back aimed to the north east, near a land they found familiar long gold towers illuminating the sky's the iridescent shimmer bouncing off them,
"What has the cattle stealing mischievous gold farm doing after the letter" The figure asked
Art didn't flinch she peered at the figure with a slight smile on her lips, staring into the blues she recalled Where red. She chuckled letting out a teasing sigh,
"It's probably just Hermes messing with their protector again"
"The dress again" the figure interjected
"Knowing Hermes he did and the protector gave a belly laugh but Them shocked him with lighting, sounds like a normal mail day for him" Art retorted
Art looked once more a lighting bolt almost hit Hermes and in her vision she let go of the string. The arrow flew through the air hearing the wind crash against the metal tip, Art and the figure watched it tear through the realm into the next one a faint glow came from the wound until it closed leaving the shy more bright then before,
"That was sharp you still got it for decades of rust" The figure teased
Art sent him an annoyed glare setting her bow down and placed the arrow holder on the table, she walked past the figure as she peeked at the window seeing the arrow fly through the next realm, acting like a hound on a sent, until she saw it made a left turn the gold shined sky and hit the target she could practically heard the upside curse coming from the flying messenger,
"Years of rust don't change a thing when you've been made for it figure" Art remarked
She looked ahead Shais sleeping form the fever was gone leaving the poor woman cold and back to what she looked like brown hair, long to her hips, the flecks of golden hair hidden in it, Art moved her hair away seeing a scar on her forehead she smiled softly, the figure witnessed them his poster soften his cloaked moved off showing the black hair and blue eyes he smiled at the sight scanning over Shai,
"She should be fine now but that shield was impressive took a lot out of her to do" he whispered
He lean touching a light strain of hair he glanced at Art, catching the soft look from her eyes to the small smile she held, watching her touch Shai's cheek when frown appears on Arts lips, she looked at him concerned,
"Wait until its the whole universe and beyond, after that I don't think we will see the brown hair woman like this again" Art mumbled
She stood up her finger brushing against Shai's cheek when she heard a snarky coherent shout from window, they both turned seeing the arrow I the marble half Im with specks of blood on it, the figure turned his eyes caught the sight Of it,
"Seems like he got it," the figure analyzed the arrow walking to it,
Art watched him her eyes clast over the arrow with a faint knowing smile,
"Hermes got it, good he can deal with there mess" Art explained
The roar of the jet sound through the clouds as they stared out the window watching the sun set, colors that whispered of the clouds past the remaining beams of light, when a scoff came through the back of the jet,
"Its pretty good for being human made,"
Ares leaned against the wall staring out the window his helmet off on a small table, Eurus looked up at him confused as he ate a corn puff, crumbs littered his face with a bewildered retort,
"Hunan made, so what do you have against us?"
Ares glanced at him begrudgingly, he held onto his arm and answered,
"No. But we do find you weak and..quite puny,"
Eurus observed him, seeing the harden and discipline stance Ares held, then staring back at him like he was at trial, and Ares was the executioner,
"Weak? Compared to you guys maybe but one thing you don't have.."
Ares glowered at him leaning closer to Eurus leaning back in the chair, his brown eyes scanned the boy out of pure spite. Eurus felt a shiver go down his back, Ares didn't act like this before with him what's the matter with him. Did Apollo make him lose the last of his patience?
"We have a soul. We don't live countless decades watching humanity go by, Your name became legends but are you?" Eurus asked
"Souls Flesh always seems so ordinary" Ares scoffed standing up leaning on the chair behind Eurus watching him not prey but a friend that became more of a threat. Eurus froze mid way eating a corn puff, a gust of wind blew at them, Eurus felt his fingers hit his teeth. He looked the corn puff was gone leaving his finger just in dust, Eurus confused let out a befuddled mutter,
"The hell,"
Eurus turned scanning around them, checking. For gold or feathers, that mocking little pest. Ares observed him with a bored smile looking around him seeing his phone playing annoying tone he found utterly irritating, it didn't help that they were watching them more invested in this squabble then the news playing in the background,
"Ares did you see the decor anywhere?" Eurus inquired reaching in his bag for another corn puff, Ares turned his head towards him again, a bored look in Ares brown hues,
"No i havent seen the irritating pigeon" Ares answered
"Then what the hell happened to my other corn puff"
Eurus looked at his table taking the Corn puff about to eat it again, a gust of wind blew taking the puff, Eurus hair flared in the wind his eyes wide as he glared at where the puff was,
"That bloody dastardly bird" Eurus cussed he scanned around the small table when he felt the rush of wind again, he held onto his bag when its ripped from his grasp,
"Dammit you fucking blond surfer give it back"
Eurus got up scanning around his space, eyes franticly searching for the golden menace, he saw a flicker of gold shimmer around Ares and looked at him,
"Is he near you?"
"No, I would have killed his messenger if it went here. He knows that" Ares answered,
Eurus saw the shrug Ares gave his eyes glanced at where Athena, Claire and his Aunt are, Eurus slowly turned seeing a faint gold feather coming from there,
"He would hide where you wouldn't go unless you want to face your irritable Aunt," Ares continued
Eurus looked at a cabinet above his aunt's head, a it was opened a hair, in there was a beam of gold and soft coes of a dove, and the laughter of its master,
"That was glorious, my little dove his face was practically golden and him asking Ares for help poor soul can't even help himself" a sly voice came echoing down the jet, Eurus stared at him shocked turned into a slow outrage,
"That fucking bird" Eurus mumbled
He walked slowly up the jet when turbulence happened he held into the seats glaring at the little cabinet, Ares watched him seeing a feather fly out of it landing on Judy's head, he glared at the cabinet eyes glowed red,
"Hey he heard how nice of him, well not so nice for my dove, Ares my man is the twerp walking down the aisle?" The dove let out its head peeking out of the cabinet, its head twitching looking around Ares moved off the chair staring at the bird as if it offend his very being,
"He is if you can look thought your bird properly Apollo shouldn't be hard for you sunshine"
"Dont call me that" Apollo retorted
The birds head move glaring at Ares, as it moved its head to the side hearing footsteps,
"There you are boy wonder" the dove reverberated
The dove looked ahead seeing Eurus walk up the aisle, Eurus stared daggers into the dove as he was reaching where the cabinet is a calm feminine voice cut through the tension,
"Eurus, shouldn't you be resting, you have done my speech already?"
He looked down seeing Judy drinking wine, Claire beside her a hologram to stay at the house, and Athena next to her armor off watching them less amused then Ares was, Eurus smiled lightly as he pointed at the cabinet,
"The little pest decided my corn puffs where a community food bank" Eurus explained sending another scathing stare to the bird who only fringed a corn puff at his head,
"Not yours anymore qwicksilver," Apollo mocked
Eurus went to open the cabinet when Athenas stopped him,
"don't bother his messenger has it, just hop he doesn't turn into his real form teleporting through the bird, it's more of a headache than you think," Athena advised her hand lighting turning her grape juice, her blue eyes peered up at him for a slight second, Eurus let his hand fall putting it in his pocket,
"So you're letting him win then Athena?" Ares let out from behind Eurus who jolted aside letting him through, Ares sent a scowl at the bird sitting down next to Claire's hologram peeking at it, eyes shining red again,
"Im not letting him win Ares I would rather not deal with petty fights not when we have more pressing matters to deal with" Athena exclaimed sipping her juice,
Eurus walked closer to the table, he witnessed his aunt stiffen, he turned to her fast his eyes calculated,
"Auntie, did something else happen?"
Judy stared up from her wine she tried to put on a thin smile,
"Yes there has, if the bird would come down and tell us without making my nephew want to lose his head," Judy inquired her cheek in her hand staring up,
They looked up the cabinet door open with a dove leaning on the edge with what looked like a cocky smirk,
"You rang gorgeous?"
