Heracles's omen (Heracles and the Nemean lion)


“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 from his back and forehead. The bloodthirsty eyes came near to him then a head of a lion which was covered by long smooth golden fur appeared in front of Heracles. It glared at him for moments then roared loudly at him.
“Heracles, walk up!” the voice of Gwen.
“What’s wrong with you?” added Gwen, looking at Heracles’s white face. There still had some sweat drops on his forehead. Heracles didn’t answer him in minutes. He was still frightened by the last thing he saw in his dream. “The nightmare appeared again.” he said thoughtfully, “more clearly.”
“What it the nightmare?” asked Gwen.
“The nightmare I have told to you and Amelinda after we met the owl of wisdom.” said Heracles, “However, we need to come class first. I will tell you and Amelinda after class.”

Chapter 3: The owl of wisdom (part 2)

“A proud boy.” said the owl of wisdom, “Let me see you.” It flew slowly around Hank, “Your god Ares seem to favor you. A vulture symbol under was your ear and a spear symbol was on your arm. You are wise boy who know to come after fight and get the spoils. However, you are also great in combat if you need to do it. You are a good boy will sever your god well in future.” said the owl of wisdom. “Please go to the table closest to your left. It’s the place for Aresians.” Hank made his way to his family where many people had stayed there. “Bravo!”, “Great boy!” said others there. They shook Hank’s hand, greeted with high five. The place turned crowded in minutes and made Heracles not happy much.  Next after Hank was Morela who was also sat on the same boat with Heracles. Morela came from Delphi the city was protected by god Apollo, the sun god. Of course, she was blessed by her god, a symbol of the sun appeared brilliantly at the middle of her head in golden light. The owl of wisdom told

Chapter 11: The gate (part 9)

A loud bag spread out above their heads. Two hooded cloak men lied quietly on ground. Roger walked to the gallery. “Heracles, Gwen and Amelinda, you all are here. It is hard to find you” he called up. He hurriedly made the way step down the stairs. Though his body was big and stout, he moved very fast coming to them and froze as he saw a dead on ground. “Who are they?” he asked softly, looking on Amelinda. “This is Lily and - Aunt Calliope.” Amelinda said hesitantly; “She is Lily’s mother. She saved all of us.” she added sadly.  Between curly hair and bushy beard which almost covered his face were warm eyes. She warmly looked on Lily who was sitting on ground holding her mother’s hand. He decided to keep silent, turned to Heracles, Gwen, Amelinda then turned to the dead Hydra dragon which was not far away from them.  “I dont know how you could kill the dragon but there has one thing we have to do before we leave this place.” said Roger calmly, “Go with me Amelinda. I need your help” he

Chapter 10: I am Heracles (part 3)

“The girl who came from outside.” said Elder D. “There is no such person here.” Squealed Aunt Calliope. “The girl you called Amanda.” said Elder shortly, still with his cold voice. “There must be some mistake here. She is not from the outside. She is my child.” Aunt Calliope squealed. “Dare you doubt Lord’s decision.” frieghtened Elder D, not heard her explained. The face of Aunt Calliope froze at one. “No, I don’t.” said Aunt Calliope weakly. “Take her to here. I don’t have much time.” ordered Elder D. “Give me a minute.” Aunt Calliope replied. She turned her way walked inside. She passed Heracles’s and Gwen’s room before reached to Amelinda’s and Lily’s. Her footsteps were clear in the still night and made Heracles wake up. Open the door, Aunt Calliope walked in. Amelinda and Lily were sleeping. Aunt Calliope managed to the bed’s edge. She sat down, gently touched on Amelinda. “Wake up Amanda.” she called, shaking her softly. Amelinda got up. She opened eyes looking at Aunt Calliope
