When Heracles tried to get the acceptance of his scepter

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 off, it also turned off. Therefore, no one there but Ham discovered it.
Everyone exhaled. Amelinda rushed to Heracles, hugged him as soon as everything finished.
“Hahaha,” laughed Amelinda, “I know you can do it.”
“Yeah,” said Heracles tiredly.
“Congratulate Heracles! I think you just got a powerful scepter.” said Gwen quickly approached them.
“The scepter has been here for long time Heracles. I’m very happy. At last, it also has its owner.” spoke Ham joyfully.
“Thank you.” said Heracles. He smiled.
“It’s not me.” said Ham, “You must hear it from Chun. Something is made for only someone. I was created for you, you and you.

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 ...

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...

Chapter 3: Where is All-For-You shop (part 2)

“We can’t ask him.” squealed Gwen, “He is the person I don’t want to tell most. We should find All-For-You shop first and If we don’t find it, we will try to find other ways.” “We have no other choice.” said Heracles.  The carriage kept moving in long time then stopped. “We came - master.” the voice of the coachman coming in. “We Out Heracles.” said Gwen.  Heracles stood up at one. He kept his head down, gabbed on door handle then pushed it open. He made his way step out landing on the ground first, Gwen right after him then stepped aside. He turned to his coachman. “Find the way to park and make sure you can see us when we turn back. We will not here long time.” he said. “Follow your words, master.” said the coachman solemnly. He leathered the horses riding away.  Hurriedly, Heracles and Gwen strode off. They heading to a narrow aisle between houses, where they found All-For-You shop last time. It’s always deserted inside the aisle every times they walked in it and didn’...
