Hippocoon land

“Who do you think you are chosen by?” said Gwen. “I don’t know.” said Heracles, “Ares is great and Apollo is good too. I like to have a symbol of the sun. However, if I have something from Zeus king of gods and goddesses, it is greatest.” “Yeah, Zeus is the best.” said Heracles. Honestly, there had some people blessed by god Zeus. They got the symbols of eagle, bull, and even oak but no one of them was given the symbol of thunderbolt, the ultimate symbol of strength. No one dared to think about it and even in Hippocoon there had very few people owned the symbol. “I think I like to have something which helps me heal.” said Amelinda, turned to them. “It’s best for you.” said Gwen. Henry who stood right in front of Amelinda walked ahead. Of course, his turn came. He was a medium high muscle boy who had short hard black hair. “The symbol of two spears is on your right shoulder, arrow and bow on the left.” cried the owl of wisdom, “You was born to fight. Which family will you choo

A short meeting was held right after that. All professors were asked to come and join it. At last, they all decided to use castle Methonia’s shield. All people of the four families were summoned in the castle hall in the next morning. Professor Finn and other had been there as they walked in. They all were sitting on table set at one side at the end of the hall where the owl odd wisdom stood on its pole. Except professor Finn, the others there turned noisy they spoke to others in anxious voice. Then professor Finn stood up, walked ahead then stopped in front of all people there. He opened his arms widely. “All, pay attention.” he said, “Some can know but some can not that one girl has killed and two red-armband members are missing. It’s because of what I don’t know for sure that what exactly it is but according to professor Linus, it seems to be something or creature very dangerous. It has power which may threaten to all of us people living in castle Methonia. Before I can know

“A girl died, two are missing. What are doing as the things happen?” a voice echoed to Heracles’s ears. It came from the person who had long smooth black hair, looked like professor Linus. He was walking around some people looking like red-armband members shouting at them something Heracles couldn’t hear. The image of them turned blurred then vanished. Heracles sank into darkness after that. Then a golden light suddenly spread out, Heracles frowned. A woman wearing in a white chiton and many of golden bracelets and necklace appeared in front of his face. She was in midair, seemed to lose her consciousness. “One comes from place not here, come and destroy every here. One half god blood, will appear and end it.” Then the light disappeared, Heracles was in darkness again. In the darkness a pair of bloodthirsty eyes suddenly appeared and then slowly moved toward Heracles. He tried to step backward but he couldn’t his body seemed not to obey him. Heracles scared sweat poured violently

The while owl statue gradually turned into gold, it spread out golden light and lit up whole the hall by the divine light. The golden owl moved open is eyes. “How long is it from the last time I appeared?” said the owl it soared up, “It must be entire a year. I can see new faces here, very young, strong, brave and even proud. It’s a very long time ago when the battle of the gods had ended. Zeus had ascended to the throne, divided the world into three, one for him to rule Olympus, another for one of bother Poseidon to rule ocean and the other for other bother Hades to rule the Underworld. The world was ruled by them in peace and peace for long times. Till, an argument came out between them the twelve gods and goddesses on Olympus. Who is the most revered god or goddess? The argument seemed not to have the end till goddess Athena gave them an idea. She advised others to choose people who live in ground, gave them strength, intellect and courage, asked them to go and do feats and b

“It’s Grogon, a ground dragon.” a humpback man who brought an old lamp on his bony hand from somewhere approached Heracles, “It’s juvenile. If it is mature, it can round the world few rounds. However, some rules make creatures like it not to be allowed to appeared front of people. They have to live in Underworld. Some of them accept to be carriers to get out from the Underworld.” “Whatever, my name is Aiden. I will be the person who brings you to Hippocoon. Guess you all have met the Shadow-shifter. He was a child liking to play with everybody. You must get much fear before you come to here.” added the humpback man. “Yes, we did.” said Heracles. Then clanks spread out. Millions of pair feet appeared under Grogon which looked more like a huge millipede than a dragon. Grogon took a long yawn. Its head started moving back. “Welcome! Welcome first year.” Grogon said loudly, “new faces, very young and having much potential. I am Grogon who will bring you to Hippocoon. Very ni

They kept running toward the statue of goddess Athena. “What are you doing?” cried Amelinda, struggling to escape from Gwen’s hand, “We will hit on it.” “It’s okay Amelinda.” Gwen calmed her, “A door is there.” “Ahhh!” cried Amelinda, closed her eyes. “You can open your eyes now.” said Heracles. “Where are we?” squealed Amelinda. “I don’t know.” said Heracles. It’s a long roof which was supported by marble columns above their heads. Some children were also staying there under the roof. They gathered into groups stood at other places in the roof talking. “So what do we do now?” asked Amelinda. “Wait.” answered Gwen, “The carrier will come and bring us go.” “Who is the carrier?” said Heracles. “I don’t know. Others told me that.” said Gwen. “What’s that?” said Heracles. He pointed at a round shadow which was on ground toward others. “Look! Are they its eyes?” cried Amelinda, hinted to a pair of white narrow shapes. “And it’s its mouth.” said Heracles, “What’s it doing? W

Heracles, Gwen and Amelinda had come to the first floor. They was staying outsider a closed wooden door. It made them a little hesitant as they stood there. Then Heracles walked ahead, knocked on the door. “Come in.” a tired voice spread out. Heracles pulled the door. He, Gwen and Amelinda walked in. There was a rather dark room lit by some oil lamps spread out gentle blue light. The room was narrow, made of wooden and filled full by a lot of stuff and most of them were scepters. “What do you want?” said a man sitting on an elbow chair standing between scepters by the walkway along the room. He even didn’t look at Heracles, Gwen and Amelinda as they walked in. His head bent down, chin on his hand. He seemed to be sleeping. “We are new. We need to help.” squealed Amelinda, standing right after Heracles. The man raised his head, parted his curly black long hair aside his face showed out his sleepy eyes with big shadows below, his stubby short beard around his mouth and jaw.

Ham gave Heracles and heavy scepter which had a hard black red handle with a crystal ball containing a drop of red blood looking like lava. The blood spread out red light. “I had to use ironwood to make it handle. Only it can stand the power of dragon. Try it Heracles. Let us see you deserve it.” added Ham. Heracles nodded then closed his eyes, focused to connect with the scepter. The crystal ball lit up a moment but it didn’t turn off. “Try again Heracles. You nearly do it.” said Ham. Suddenly, the red dragon blood drop turned dark red. The light it spread out also turned dark. The scepter inside Heracles’s hand trembled struggling to escape. “Focus Heracles.” roared Ham. Heracles stood still. Sweats appeared on his forehead. He was very focused. Minutes later, the handle turned calm in Heracles’s hand. The blood drop turned red again. It lit brilliantly for minutes. In the time, another scepter in there also lit up, spread out dark. However, when Heracles’s scepter turned o

Inspired by Heracles, a divine hero in Greek mythology who had performed 12 great labors, this book told about a boy named Heracles. He also was born in Tiryns and the son of Alcmene and the king of god Zeus. However, Heracles didnt know about it, always believing that his father was king Amphitryon, his mother's husband. Therefore, he always wondered why his father always liked his his twin brother Iphicles more than him; Amphitryon treated Iphicles gently while he always treated him coldly. Heracles and his mother kept living with Iphicles and Amphitryon in Amphitryon's castle till he went to age of seven. Because of some reason he didn't know, he mother brought him to leave the castle and then lived in a nice building far away the castle after that. Accompanying with the were the Old-Gardener, Lena, July and her daughter, Amelinda. Amelinda was the same age as Heracles and was one of two best friends of Heracles and the other was Gwen, son of a lord in his count
