Mortals: Meet... 2

Chiron II - Carleton 'Carl' Becker

"In a way, I think we could answer that..." I looked at the man, curiously "Carleton, what do you know about the Greek Gods?"

~oOo~

Chiron had made me watch an introduction movie after our talk that my Mom could be a greek goddess. I came out of that screen projection with more questions than doubts. Who was my mother? Chiron said that there were many possibilities... Dad hadn't known who she was, but maybe what she was and she didn't allow him to tell me...? Why she didn't stay with us?did she even loved Dad or was a selfish spoiled brat moment for her...?

"You look like you're sick..." Shenna's voice penetrated my ears, making me look away from my void point in space.

"I'm not sure what to think of my Mom now... If she ever deserves that title..." I added at the end, a little of anger laced around it.

"Well, now, we have to determine who is your mother..." Shenna told me "After that, you can ask your siblings about her and stuff..." I nodded, basically because so far, the only things that my mother had given me were my Dad and some siblings, as Dad became sterile and no one would give adoption rights to a single man who works as a chocolatier. That sucked for us...

"And, how do I find that out?"

"Proving your skills"

~oOo~

Safely, I can say that I don't have aptitude to do half of the things these campers do.

Now, I'm laying on the grass, groaning and feeling sorry for myself. The only good thing is that Shenna is still with me, as Chiron had assigned her as my guide for the day. She had nothing else to do, or so she claimed.

"I feel like a loser..." I moaned, complaining. Shenna patted my knee kind of awkwardly.

"Maybe you're a balance..." we turned to the voice and belonged to a girl who looked a little asian. Her facials were defined and her eyes were a little round. Her straight black hair was chopped in different lengths and she had both her hands on her hips, showing off her camp 'uniform', an orange T-shirt and jeans "You know, maybe your mother is my mother..."

"Who are you? And who is your mother?" I asked, kind of rudely. I was tired, upset, hungry and frustrated. Mostly upset.

"I'm Eden Nakajima and my mother is Nemesis, the goddess of Balance..."

"Good option, but..." Shenna trailed a little, getting our full attention "We still have a few goddess to search, that without counting that your mother could, well... not be your mother..."

"What are you saying? That a god disguised hismelf as a woman to be with my Dad...?" It was a bit strange for me to think that my Mom was, well... a man.

"Apollo has done it" Eden pointed out.

"Can we run out our options first?" Shenna tried to return the conversation back to somewhere I wasn't confused or perplexed "There's one thing I wanna introduce you..."

"What is it?"

"Well, we still have to see if you're a son of Aphrodite-"

"The Goddess of Love? How can I know that?"

"Maybe, you should see her childrens to see if they have any ideas..." Chiron's voice approached, but I almost had a heart attack when I saw that he was walking to us... it was that he was walking to us, in what it seemed horse's legs!! Which means... I was close to pass out a little, realizing this was not the world I was used to...

Things were gonna change drastically...

Morning! (Can't say good, cause it's black here thanks to a storm...)

Anyway, I bring you here another exclusive chapter of my genderbent imagination (that has been stored for gods know how many weeks) only to remember that I promised the lovely @abigailsatu a Percico! *cue to silent scream* Shame on me! Shame. On. Me!!

So, and because it's a rainy day down here which gives me no room for procrastination, I'll be posting another chapter, the Percico proper one later on the day... Also, I've been writing another chapter, that I want to share with you all and I had a special request about making Perseus and Andromeda's tale also genderbent (let's see how that works out!)

Oh! And before I forget! This Tuesday is my dear best friend A_Million_Stars birthday!! So, besides the usual chapter of Urgent! Inspiration: Needed, you'll need to check my profile for her birthday chapter!! Love you, girl!!

See you around, guys!
