Athenas POV:

I boared the plane and sat in my seat. I layed my head back and thought to myself. Eventually I fell asleep.

I opened my eyes to be standing in middle of a crowd and people yelling my name. The two men from the apartment, the beautiful girl from the street, and the man who shined the bright light were standing in front of me.

"Athena Hero Zenida, we are here to congratulate you on your journey so far. Not much longer and you can return home," the man said. "That's not my name.. Where am I?" I said looking around. "She doesn't remember Christ," the woman whispered to the man in front of me.

"Christ? Like Jesus Christ? Where am I?" I asked again. "Athena," Zeus said. "Someone explain what is going on!" I demand. When I yelled it was like my voice boomed through the open building crowed with people. "Zeus would you like to help your daughter remember," Christ said looking at Zeus.

He nodded and walked up to me. He put his finger on my head. "Close your eyes," he whispered. I closed my eyes and the pressure on my forehead got harder.

21 years ago:

"Baby you won't be gone forever. Christ needs you to do this mission for him Athena," Zeus said kneeling in front of me. "But daddy.." I mumbled. "I know Athena, your my oldest child and I will love you till the day the world ends, but honey this is important and you have to be my strong soldier," he said.

I turned around to see Christ standing behind me with his hand out. I turned around to look back at my father and nodded. "I'm your soldier daddy," I mumbled grabbing Christs hand. He led me out of the house and into the white fog that covered the ground.

We were walking till we were at the edge of the road that just ended on a ledge. I looked over to see absolutely nothing in sight. Christ bent down to my level and grabbed my hands. "Athena Hero Zenida, you have to find these two little boys," he said. He waved his hand and 2 realistic holograms appeared of a blonde and brunette littles boys playing in their rooms.

"You have to make them your bestfriends. When their older get them to go with you to find the bad things," he said meeting my eyes. "Yes sir Christ," I mumbled. "Good girl Athena. You are our soldier. Born to be wise and victorious," he said standing up.

I walked over to the edge and he pushed me off the ledge. Then I appeared in front of a door. I knocked to be meeted with my mother. "Oh James! Come look at this sweet little girl. I think she's lost," my mother said.

I opened my eyes to see Zeus still standing in front of me. "Your not done Athena," the unknown man said. I looked at him and closed my eyes once again.

16 years ago:

"James! Get your ass in here," my mother yelled. My father came rushing in and was immediately taken a back by the sight. "What the hell!" My father yelled. I turned around in my childhood bedroom to see a mirror behind me.

My blue eyes widened at the sight. Not out of fear or disgust but amazement and beauty. I had angel wings coming out of my back. "Daddy! Mommy! I'm an angel! Like the ones from the book," I yelled. I turned back around to my mother giving my father a odd stare.

They wouldn't let me go to school until their prayers were answered for my wings to disspear. I listened outside my parents door to them arguing about the wings that had randomly appeared. I walked back to my room with my head down.

I walked into my room shutting the door behind me. I saw a tall man when I turned to look at my bed. "Hi Athena, I hate to do this.. but not really," the strange man said with a sickening smile.

"Mommy!" I screamed. "Quiet! We can't have you screaming now," the man said. I tried to yell but I couldn't. It was like my mouth was sewn shut. "This will on take a second," the man said turning me around. He ripped out the wings one by one.

The pain felt like nothing to compare. I tried to scream but no sound would escape. I sat there and cried in the insufferable pain. "One more thing Athena. I can't having you remembering your a goddess now can I," the man said.

He put a finger on my head and pressed down with extreme pressure. The room went black and when I awoke my mother was holding my father. "She's normal James! She's normal," my mother yelled.

I got up and walked over to the mirror to see my wings no longer there. I also saw that I had deep brown eyes. "What.." I mumbled. "Oh honey you can't even tell that they were ever there," my father said walking behind me.

I opened my eyes again and looked around. This time I recognized everyone. "Daddy.." I muttered. "Athena!" Zeus yelled. He picked me up in a tight hug. "My soldier! She remembers," he yelled into the open room. Everyone cheered chanting my name.

Zeus finally put me down and I walked over to Christ. "Athena, your mission is close to successful. Convince the boys to become demonologist, defeat the thing and you can come home till the boys need your help again," Christ said grabbing my hands and cupping them in his.

I looked down and realized. Once I do this I won't be seeing them again. I looked back up at Christ. "Christ, I know Olympus is where I belong with the rest of us, but I also belong down there on earth with them," I said. Everybody gasped.

"Athena what are you doing," Aphrodite said walking up to me. "Yeah I haven't even got to meet my big sister yet. My names Hercules," the other man said also walking over. "I know my family is here. With you guys, but their also my family. I can't abandoned them," I said looking at the two next to me.

I finally remembered my life before earth. Aphrodite was my best friend when I was younger. She was my first friend, I loved her and my family but I belonged on earth.
