 Pandora, according to Greek mythology, was the first woman. Each God helped create her by giving her unique gifts. Zeus ordered Hephaestus to make her as part of the punishment of mankind for Prometheus' theft of the secret of fire, and all the gods joined together, offering her seductive gifts. Her other name is Anesidora, or "she who sends up gifts". According to myth, Pandora opened a container jar (pithos) releasing all of the evils of mankind into the world— greed, vanity, slander, envy, pining— leaving only hope inside once she had closed it again. Leaving it for ruin in the Cradle of Life, in hopes that it would never be found again, Pandora fled, fear stricken and corrupted by the very box given to her by the Gods from above....For strange, a small boy, created by the Cradle of Life itself, which is where life began, discovered the box. Cracking it, he was swallowed by it, trapped in the box until some one else with misfortune were to open it. Pandora was never to be seen again. Some say she died after committing crime after crime, delirious and desperate, only ever saying 'Free me from Pandora.' Some say she died a ripe old age, in the depths of the Guardian Forest that protects the Cradle of Life from the existence of mortals. A poor soul staggered his way into the Cradle of Life, to die in the land of birth. Inches from death, he discovered Pandora's secret box. It bewitched the man immediately, whispering to him. Drawing him in. Swimming across the acid pond to retrieve it, his eyes were filled with lust. Scorched, bleeding, he opened the box. And died releasing the Child of Pandora from it's casket. He aged quickly, and knew only the horrors the box had raised him with. However, Pandora's Box held not only evil, but strong hope as well. Was the boy a monster, or a God send destined to take back the evils sent out by Pandora's Box? He escaped the Cradle of Life, killing those he could trick off into the darkness, luring the foolish and the brave. He soon became a myth all his own, and he was unstoppable. He has aged past his beginning years, and into his teens, and is as dangerous as ever. Hope lies inside him, but all he's known so far is death. He was a mere child who was lost in the weird of our mortal world. T H E - S E C R E T - O F - P A N D O R A

THE STORY SO FAR... Under Construction The Child of Pandora is becoming more than a myth. People are dying every day. Found murdered in alley ways of the city of Olympia, and people are starting to fear for not just them, but every human walking near the Land of the Gods. At first people didn't link that the murders were by the mythical boy from Pandora that had crept his way into almost every single mythology book. There were no witnesses, so no one knew if the murderer was even a child, a man, a woman, or even an animal. He was fear itself as everyone in Gods Lands worked their way into depression. Taking what they needed to survive and to life. Chaos was blooming everywhere.

"Tobei Tailei!" Snapped the teacher as she cracked her whip on a blue-haired girls desk. Sighing, Tobei looked up. "Yes Mrs. Huereis?" she said in her lazy voice. "Since you must have been paying attention.....Give me you notebook and tell me what Pandora's Box and her Child are." groaning, Tobei handed over a notebook will little doodles on it. "My my....Interesting study drawings." The teacher muttered.

Fay galloped quickly and slid to a sudden stop at the very edge of a hill. She was overlooking a country town and could see the City of the Gods staight ahead. Her blue eyes peered intensly at that city. They seemed to glow in the suns light as she glared and thought of everything they'd let happen to her kind. Unicorns were so rare and the Gods were just letting them die out. It was disgusting.

Maybe I should just give up... The unicorn thought. Fay hated running from these humans. They were always chasing after her meat and her horn for its healing powers. She'd heal whoever they wanted if they asked nicely. But no, they had to be greedy and take everything they wanted.
Fay continued to stand galliantly on the hill, contemplating her choices.
Lol... I'm writing an essay on human nature so yeah...))

Sighing, Tobei recited. "Pandora was the first woman, created by the gods. She was given a box, which she opened, releasing all the evils we now have into the world, like you, and a boy was thought to have been born in the box, and come out to kill all those who did wrong or were too pure of heart." She said, droning on, taking air, and droning some more as other students snorted, trying to keep from laughing.

Maybe I'll just go cause some havoc on my way to see the Gods. Fay thought before she stampeded down the hill towards the villiage. Yes, she was angry. Furious, that nothing had been done about her species and she was going to take it out on this little villiage as her protest. Sure she was only one unicorn, but she was a unicorn. Powerful and strong.
She kicked up some dust in the main square, causing the people to scatter. Some tried to catch her but she only dodged them. She kicked at thier town centerpiece, cracking it with her strong hooves before going down an alley closer to the Gods city. They would see what she was doing and hopefully make the right decision.
Fay panted as she halted in the dark. The humans were coming for her. She transformed into her human form, giving her the appearance of a fragile teenage girl, and a few seconds later they ran past. She pushed her blonde hair aside with a delicate finger and exited the alley.
Fay waited in the crowd of people who were talking animatedly amongst themselves about the sudden activity.

Sighing as class proceeded, Tobei looked out the window with longing. Suddenly a unicorn ran past her window, and into town center. Her jaw dropped. "WhOOOA!" She yelled, getting to her feet so fast, her chair flew over. Other people stared too, crowding the windows.

The unicorn dashed off as the men of the village ran after her, and Tobei suddenly felt as if a rock had plummeted to the bottom of her stomach. Kids and teachers alike were running from the classroom to help in the chase, and Tobei sat still long after the classroom was empty, watching as the unicorn galloped off....

As the panic continued, Fay began to grow weaker in her human form. She headed into a nearby building that appeared to be a schoolhouse.
Surprisingly it was empty. Everyone was probably looking for her. Fay was proud of herself and went over the fight in her head as she changed back into a unicorn.
Her hooves echoed among the empty building. Kids brought thier lunchs to school right? Maybe she would find some food.

Turning around, Tobei rolled her eyes over to look at that unicorn. It seemed to light up the entire room......Watching it, she remained still. She felt her stare soften....It was beautiful......Why had everyone gone after it like it was a bag of money or something?
