Propheci by Gabriella Counou (ebook smartphone .TXT) 📖

gem was attached to a beautiful gold string it complemented my hair color.

 

There was a message etched along the string:

 

Celina,

 

I'm going to find out what and who your parents are. I love you. Sending my love. My mom asked when the marriage was ocurring and I said soon. See you soon.

 

Showering my love with this necklace. Have it with you all times,

 

Andrew (Hephaestus)

 

Andrew Hephaestus I read the name multiple times my Hephaestus. He was so sweet and so god-like, loving and caring. I heard Jonathon come up behind me. Trying to suprise me but not sucessfully. I wanted to punch him. Jonathon put his hand around my neck imitating a person trying to kill or kidnap me. I elbowed him in the stomach then smacked him right across his face.

 

 

"Crap. That hurt," A familiiar voice said but the voice didn't belong to Jonathon. It was his cousin Daeis.

 

Realizing it wasn't Jonathon I smiled.

 

"Serves you right. Sneaking up on a lady like that," I scolded him looking him straight in the eyes flirting a little. But I couldn't help it.

 

"Wow...You changed a whole lot. Your eyes and your hair and...," He faded off dazed.

 

"I know but I didn't know it affected men like that," I said twirling my hair innocently. I batted my eyelashes.

 

He grinned at me boyishly and winked. Daeis was never one to flirt but Jonathon was. What was happening to everyone? Then it was silent for a long while.

 

"So..um how have you been?" The silence was lethal, I hated it.

 

"As good as life gets on earth," He said grumpily.

 

"Well don't complain," I said punching him friendly on his shoulder.

 

Daeis smiled at me looking down but not at my face or the floor.

 

"Hey my face is up here," I said pointing at my face. He blushed. Boys, now they were puddles under my fingertips, I thought.

 

The calm cool weather shifted as lightning struck the ground near where I was. I'm guessing Zeus didn't like that. I jumped in fright.

Uncle Hades

Zeus my soon-to-be father-in-law nearly killed me. Eh-ma-gawd. Was that a warning?

 

I can't believe this... Something fell from the sky.

 

"Daeis, catch it," I shouted. A little piece of paper fell from the sky. Daeis tried to read it.

 

"Daeis, give me that,"I tried to snatch the paper from him. We tumbled on the ground me on top. The sky rumbled. "Give it to me NOW."

 

I smacked him, my hand aflame.

 

"Ouch that stung."

 

"I warned you once," I said as I grabbed the paper.

 

Dearest Celina,

 

Stop flirting with an elemental. You know better, Lina. We found out who your parents were and what they were. Hephaestus is very upset and is coming down with information for you. Showering my love with lightning. Watch out.

Zeus

 

I moved to the side as a lightning bolt struck singing the paper. Hephaestus (Andrew) came down fire brushing his feet. He was steaming with anger.

 

"Get away from my wife," Hephaestus shouted.

 

"I don't see a wedding ring," Daeis said calmly. How could he be so stupid Andrew, Hephaestus whatever, was a powerful Deity who could be a little crazy in his rage?

 

"I am married to neither of you idiots, and come hill or high twista will I start now with you Daeis," I said. Hephaestus chuckled."And you. Hephaestus I didn't say you didn't do anything wrong. I just didn't get to you yet. You needn't be so hateful, Daeis is extremely hot and your just jealous. Fight again or challenge each other and I will go marry Adonis."

 

 

They grimaced. I almost laughed. But still hated each other. Guys how typical. Adonis was a fine man. Adonis was a Deity girls wanted him but couldn't have. But now I knew I could have any boy I wanted with a snap.

 

I stood between them pushing my hands on each of there chests. My fire surged and so did my water knocking them both unconcious.

 

 

Zeus' lightning struck again alarming me. Another piece of paper fell from the sky. I caught it.

 

The paper levitated over the water. Cool. I heard Daeis trying to get up but he fell back down weakly.

 

Sweetness,

If you ever knock out my son again and Hera sees this she will kill you. Just a fair warning. I'm sending out to one of your relatives he'll be there in a minute.

 

The paper disapeared.

 

The water bubbled the wind howled and my hair whipped. Hades. Hades I was related to Hades. That explains the fire. Hades arose on land.

 

 

"Hi," I said nervously.

 

"No need to be nervous I'm your Grandpa's Uncle and your my great niece. Your father was Poseidons second child. Oh and your mother gorgeous. She was a real godly beauty. She looked about like you but longer hair, she was a elemental/deity half and half. But come to think about had a real temper on her. Your dear old father, he couldn't come down he had to tend to other earthly matters. Gods, always busy," He said he took one breath and started talking again,"You must have questions about what you are? Who your mother was? About the prophecy?" Finally! Gods. That man could talk.

 

"So my mother was-," I started. Uggggh, give a girl a chance.

 

"Half and Half a mixed latte, a cute water bug, a sea foam butterfly. Her father was an Elemental and mother was a Deity. But back then it was normal and people of the same race could not procreate because they would make there young stronger then most. That could get messy, pure breds could start an elite society against the Elemental council and the Deitys would reign and start another war," He said giving me a major history lesson. Geez.

 

"I really don't know how your father put up with Ora but he did. I tell you she was a real ball of fire. Not literally but I was, if you know what I mean," He said winking a little. I nearly laughed but when he was talking his tone was humorous and serious. He laughed at my annoyed expression. I wasn't laughing 'He didn't know how my father put up with my mom' He really did have a dark humor and his words were playful but they hurt somewhat.

 

My hands surged with power without my consent. Hades saw it. His eyes glinted with pride, my eyes watered.

 

"I see you have my fire power. It fits you rather well," He said calmly. My power wasn't dimming. Beads of sweat trickled down my neck.

 

"I c-can't stop it," I stuttered like a little girl. Daeis groaned and sat up waking from his shock. Hephaestus sat up in shock.

 

"I can help," He said caringly.

 

"Please," I begged. He grabbed my hands and blew cold air into my face. It was working until Hephaestus took a stance and jumped up on top of Hades tackling him and began punching him. Hades told him to stop but he didn't. Daeis tried to drag me away.  I had to stop this.

 

"STOP! Hephaestus get off of him! Daeis let me go," I pulled away from Daeis and pulled Hephaestus from off of Hades.

 

"Why are you defending this heartless bastard?" Hephaestus spat angrily. His hands curling into balls.

 

"He is my Uncle and he is not heartless," I snapped now furious.

 

"Chill it, fire cracker," Hades said noticing the flames burning in my eyes. Daeis was silent.

 

"Don't call her that," Hephaestus said.

 

"And why ever not?" I asked boiling the cool sees with my angry heart.

 

Hephaestus just looked at me disgusted.

 

"So your saying your related to a monster. The same monster who took my mom's best friend, the one who forced her into the underworld made her stay-" He started hatred was wafting in the air from his direction.

 

"ENOUGH," I shouted. "You are a monster. I will never spend an eternity with you.. pompous ugly bastard. I thought you were better then my elemental mom and dad. But now I see is your hatred for my Uncle and now for me. I thought you would be there for me for the rest of my life. But no. You won't you can't see past the fact I'm related to a "monster" well guess what? Hades is more of a Deity then you'll ever be."

 

My poor heart ached and the ocean waves thrashed closer inland. I was crying he wouldn't accept me for who I was related. The prophecy was wrong we couldn't be the couple that the prophecy was talking about. Hephaestus snickered at my comment about the "pompous ugly bastard". He was having a crack at my words. I wish I could be having as much fun as him! Hades studied my emotional state my tears glimmered on my necklace a present from Hephaestus. I practically ripped it from my neck. I threw it at Hephaestus face. He caught it just barely. 

 

"You have fun with your life Andrew... Hephaestus what ever the freak your name is?"

 

Daeis had no facial but his hands were balled up and he was taking small steps toward Hephaestus.

 

Hephaestus was angry he had no right to be. That -!

 

My uncle disapeared then reappeared at my side holding out his arms. In my mind I heard him say "Go to the ocean, your father will be waiting. See you soon forget Hephaestus the diminutive little rat will be gone off to his poor father soon enough crying about she doesn't love me force her. Such a-" I covered his mouth even though no sound was coming out only the conversation in my head not aloud. I uncovered his mouth and laughed a little. I took off running in the direction of the water.

 

I heard Hephaestus shout something, "Nooooo. Stop its a trap!"

 

That was bullstanky and he knew it. I saw Hephaestus dive in the water. Then Daeis dragged him out.

 

"What have you done?" Hephaestus yelled.

Home Once Again

I heard a booming deep voice almost as deep as Zeus' if not deeper. It was familiar as I heard it I felt loved and cared for.

 

"Daddy," I whispered out into the seemingly empty ocean. Not a fish in sight. Or any other sea creature.

 

"Dite Bite my love come to me," I giggled as the deep voice sounded funny went it said the things my daddy had called me when I was little.

 

I didn't have a clue where to go. As if sensing so I saw to tailed women swimming towards me. I couldn't believe my eyes Mermaids! Eh-Ma-Hades!

 

"What are you wearing?" I heard the blonde mermaid bubble.

 

"Clothes, land people clothes," I replied.

 

"Oh lets get you dressed before you meet our beloved king, our grace will be
