It Started With a Game

23. Or Else You Will Certainly Fail

Dani's eyes widened, but she kept her voice low and even. "What do you know about my secrets?"

"I'm the goddess of love, honey. I'm going to know," Aphrodite smirked.

"What does she mean, Dani?" Marcel frowned, turning to Dani.

"Yeah, she's just making up lies," Adele said, then hesitantly added, "Right?"

"Go ahead and tell them, hun," Aphrodite said, her eyes flickering with malice, "Or else I will."

"I..." Dani said, looking down. "I... I like girls."

"Yeah, so do I. And guys. Your point?" Adele said causally, not understanding the situation.

"No, I mean like, like girls. I'm... um, I'm a... lesbian. I... think," Adele said, her face turning red. It was official. She hated Aphrodite with all her guts.

Marcel and Adele blinked. They looked at each other, then back at Dani. Then they did the thing Dani least expected. They grinned, springing out and wrapping Dani in a huge hug. "Well, duh!" Adele said. "We already knew that! It was kind of obvious. But I'm so proud of you!"

"Same here," Marcel said, his smile widening.

Sybil looked at Dani, Marcel, and Adele in their group hug. But she was also... angry. Not at them, no, no, no. At Aphrodite.

"What the hell?!" Sybil screamed at Aphrodite. "What is your effing problem you total bitch?! How dare you force anyone to come out! Out of every disgusting, horrible, thing you've ever done, this has got to be the worst!"

"Oh, you think so?" Aphrodite smirked, tilting her head to the side.

"Yes!" Sybil screamed, her face turning red as she balled her fists. "It's so messed up! I mean, forcing someone to come out of the closet has positively got to be one of the most horrible things for anyone to do! You being a bitch ass god isn't an excuse either!" Sybil screamed.

"Ooh, feisty," Aphrodite smirked. "You'll be a fun one to play with."

Dani walked over to Sybil, putting her hand on her shoulder. "Hey, it's okay. Just take a deep breath. We need a plan," The red head said.

Sybil took a deep breath, trying to calm down, but she was literally shaking with rage. Nevertheless, she turned to everyone else. "Okay, first of all, it is not okay. But we do need a plan. Guys, we were all chosen for the prophecy for a reason. I've already fulfilled all my parts, I've led us here, I've used my wisdom. Now you guys have to use your strengths," Sybil said.

"You know it's not really the wisest to say your plan in front of the 'enemy,' daughter of Athena," Aphrodite chided.

"I couldn't care less what you think," Sybil said bluntly, "My friends on the other hand..." Sybil turned to them.

They all put on determined expressions, adjusting their stance a bit. "Let's do this," Chandler said.

"I think you're forgetting something," Aphrodite said, "I'm a goddess. It's going to take more then a couple lame, teenage, hormonal, demigods to stop me."

"We're not just a 'couple lame, teenage, hormonal, demigod's' though. We're a family. And all all the shit you've put us through has just brought us closer. Nothing you can or will ever do can stop that," Sybil said defiantly. Everyone grinned at her. She really was a great leader.

They all looked at each other, nodded, and started attacking the love goddess. Chandler started by holding his hand in the air and using his light bending powers, causing a huge ray of light to shine in Aphrodite's eyes, stunning her. If she was a human, she would most likely be blinded from that.
