Darkness had been the only thing that I could see....that had been until a soft and soothing
Feminine made her Presence known, "Hello, Samuel Anderson" If I had a physical body
I would've Jumped at how sudden It had
Been, I wanted to say something back But
I was not entirely sure If I could talk seeing as
I did not have a physical Body nor did I Have
A mouth, almost as If the voice read my mind....she probably did, she had told me "Think about what you want to say, Young one" and I did, 'Where am I?' I thought to
The voice, "You are In the void, awaiting Judgement about rather you can move on
Or....If You reincarnate" The voice told me,
'And....who are You?' I thought to the voice,
"I am a new goddess....so to speak, You may call me eris and I was tasked to either guide souls to the afterlife or to reincarnate Them"
After she had told me her name and title,
I saw her physical Form, she had long flowing sliver hair and Violet eyes, she stood about Five-Foot-Seven, she had the build of a
Athlete with C-Cup Breasts, she wore a
Long purple Dress with matching Heels, she had flawless white skin, she looked to be around Twenty-five years old, Both of Her
Ears had Diamond Shaped Earrings,
A gentle smile played Upon her full Ruby-red Lips, "I believe that You are worthy of moving on....But I would like It if You'd choose Reincarnation" she had told me, If I had
A head, I would've tilted It In confusion, What? I thought to myself, Eris giggled slightly, I was sure that my face would have
Been bright red as I forgot that Eris could read minds, "There Is a world....where the Greek pantheon rule....At first....they were Ruling that world perfectly, With mercy, Forgiveness, Justice and so On....But
You know what They say....power corrupts"
In my world, the Greek gods and goddesses were generally Described as doing terrible things to Mortals aside from a few such as
Hestia, But here was Eris saying that In
The other world....that they were not always
That way, 'And....what would me bring there
Do?' I thought to Eris, "You....would bring Peace to that world as the god of Peace"
I Inwardly widen my eyes, 'You'd.... Reincarnate me as a god?' I thought to Eris,
"I would....because You wouldn't do much as a Mortal" Eris had told me, I had to admit
That she had a point, I would not have been
Able to do much without being smited,
'Okay, I'll do It!' Eris smiled gently, "May the Fates be with You and Guide your path!"
With that Light flooded the darkness, I was reincarnated as....the son of the goddess Hestia!? But how?! She Is a Virgin goddess!
My internal monologue came to a halt as I
Realized that....Maybe Hestia did the same
Thing as Athena....maybe I came from her
Head, Hestia was cradling me to her chest
With Motherly Affection shining In her Fiery Orange eyes, "Welcome to the world, Little Derek" Hestia cooed to me, It felt as though
Time flew by as I was suddenly Ten years old,
I stood slightly above my mother who was
The average height of Five-Foot-Seven,
I had my mother's dark brown hair, where her dark brown hair was long, my was short as
She would always cut It, I also had my mother's Fiery orange eyes, I had her Fair white skin tone, what I did not get from her
Was Her Athletic Build, I had to work hard
To get that, Not that I minded the work....It had been rewarding, I had not gotten my
Domains yet, But I will soon! Currently I stood outside of the Olympian throne room
My two hands Immediately grabbing the edge of my White T-shirt, Sue me....I had been nervous because After all, I had never
Seen Zeus....One Day, I had mustered the
Courage to ask Mom, she told me that she
Hid me from Zeus, Because....he can be Unpredictable to put It lightly, "Enter!" I flinched at Zeus's Yell But I did enter,
Zeus was sitting In his throne, He had Medium Length Sliver hair and Electric blue eyes, his beard was as Gray as the clouds
Outside were, he had fair White skin, he
Looked to be around fifty years old,
He currently stood at Nine foot tall, he wore
A Lightning Blue T-shirt and Light Blue Jeans
I nervously approached Zeus's Throne, Mom's Health was fueling my courage,
"Look at me, Boy" Zeus commanded, I Hesitatedly looked Up at Him, his expression
Was Unreadable, "It's Nice to finally put a
Face to a name" Zeus said, Mom had talked about me? I wondered, Zeus Shrunk down
To the size of a human, Standing at Six-Foot-One, "Nice to officially meet You, Nephew"
I Inwardly shivered at that, If this Zeus Is as bad as the Zeus in my world was said to have
Been....I don't like the Fact that I am related to him, "Nice to meet you to....Uncle"
Zeus's Mouth tugged upward Just a tad
Did Zeus almost smile!? I thought to myself,
"You are Dismissed, boy " Zeus had told me,
I cleared my throat as I said, "M-My Name's Derek" Zeus looked at me for a second,
Before turning back around to head back to his throne, I Inwardly scowled at Zeus, He could not even correct himself at calling me Boy!? I gave him my name, so he could have
At least said, You are Dismissed Derek, But No! He chose- I was cut off by a giggle from
Inside my mind, "You are so funny!" Eris said,
I Inwardly pouted as I walked out of the throne Room, "Derek....Make sure that You
Remain In Zeus's Good graces....and the others to....Until You grow In power"
I nodded, I Understood what she was trying to tell me....she wanted me to grow In power
To Rival the Olympians to keep them In Line
At the time, I had No idea about what awaited
Me down the line.
