Chapter 2
Rachel and Jacinta walked over to Simona. Simona had just finished cooking lunch. Simona called out,” lunch time!”
All the Princesses came over and sat down at the wooden picnic table. Jacinta handed out the ceramic plates. Simona put some food on each plate. But just before they put the food into there mouths all of their charms glowed. A porthole opened next to the table. Simranjeet suggested,” Maybe the gods are calling us?”
Simona grumbled,” and I just made lunch too! Hmph!”
Danyera asked Jacinta,” Can you grab us some bags so we can take this wonderful food with us?”
Jacinta curtsied and went off to grab some bags. Ashley asked,” I wonder why they are calling us?”
Rachel gazed off into the distance, she had this horrible feeling that something had happened. Simona looked at Rachel and asked,” you have been acting strange lately. What’s up?”
Rachel turned around to face Simona,” it’s nothing, don’t worry.”
She smiled trying to keep her true feelings a secret so they would not get worried. Rachel stood up and stared running towards the castle. Danyera yelled after her,” what are you doing. Jacinta will be back any second!”
Rachel called back,” I am going to get the sceptre!”
She disappeared into the castle while the others sat around the table talking. Rachel ran along the stone floor. She turned the corner and ran into Mr.Kane, their horrible maths teacher. She hit the ground and was unconscious.
*** Hades ***
Hades sat in a throne of black bones. On the back of the throne some bones framed dragon wings while the feet of the throne were talons of gryphons. Hades had been planing his revenge for two whole years; he was not going to let three girls wreck it now that he was almost finished. Hades was creating an army of monsters, demons and many other creatures. He had a table in front of him. It was a map of Greece. He had circled Belapolis. On the side of the map were little figures, like chess pieces, of creatures that had joined his army. Hades called out,” Pain!”
A chubby red demon with two small horns on his head came running up the stairs to his hall. Pain stood up straight and put his claw like hand to his head in salute. Hades called again,” Panic!”
A thin blue demon with long horns and he was running around like a headless chook he did not see Pain in front of him. Panic’s horn’s hit Pain’s but. Pain let out a short cry and said,” Pain and…”
Panic went on,” Panic reporting for duty!”
Pain puled panic off his but as Hades asks,” has Seth the Egyptian god of their under world here?”
Panic answered,” he just got here.”
Hades looked at the stairs, behind Pain and panic stood a tall man with the head of a hippo/crocodile. He wore a black kilt and a dark blue head dress. Hades stood up and announced,” welcome to my Underworld. I bet it is different from yours.”
Seth growled,” quit the small talk! Why did you call me?”
Hades said,” ah, good point. Well as you can see on this table, I want to destroy Belapolis and it’s Princesses. But I need your help, these Princesses are not average. They have powers and well…”
Seth interrupted,” I know of the Belapolis Princesses, one of them is blessed by Bastet. My rival’s daughter, Ra. You need an army, I can help you there. But what do I get out of it?”
Hades smirked,” you get to see your rival’s daughter corrupt in horror by a girl that is like a daughter to her, which means ra will get unhappy.”
Seth thought for a second, then answered,” we have an accord. I will help you defeat them. Two underworlds are better than one.”
Hades put out his hand, Seth put his hand in Hades. They shook hands and the deal was done. No one can brake a deal with a god
*** Belapolis ***
Rachel woke up. Mr. Kane was next to her, his bald head glared in the light. Mr. Kane said,” thank goodness, maths saves everyone’s life.”
Rachel rolled her eyes and said,” go back to the mental institute Mr. Kane they can help you.”
She got up and ran off to the throne room. She opened the draw with her charm and grabbed the staff. She pushed the draw back in and put her charm back around her neck. She ran back out of the room until she was outside at the picnic table. Jacinta was there and the food was in bags. Ashley asked,” ready?”
Everyone nodded. They walked into the porthole. Rainbow colours swirled around them; soon they reached the end of the porthole. They stepped out. They were in Olympus. The pillars were golden, the floor and the walls were made of marble. In the centre of the room was a fountain trickling with water. On the other side of the room were steps that lead to closed doors. The girls walk past the fountain and knocked on the huge wooden doors. The porthole closed and the doors opened.
