VIBRATIONS SO GOOD LIKE A SUNKIST!

Apollo tried to think of something but of course without his sister texting him back guess they won't be seeing her at all. "I guess we could head into the city and see if we can find my other brothers and sisters... and maybe if my uncles are down here also" He turned around and looked at kira "Well I'm not sure where we should look first and I hope they all look the same" he chuckled a little turning back around and started to walk off with his hands in his pocket. "hey try not to fall behind!! I'd really like you to meet them" walking towards the city. |

~Kira Robertson~ Kira paled, her eyes widened. The surprise came rushing back in a wave of reverence. "Uncles? You mean... Poseidon and Hades?" After a frozen moment as the god walked off, she shook her head and hurried after him, irritated that she had let her expression slip. She caught up quickly and walked beside him with her hands in her back pockets, staring ahead with her hair conveniently hiding a faint blush- she was acting a bit odd, wasn't she? Well, she thought, this is an odd situation. Shaking her head and discarding the subject, she decided she should probably say something. "Just how many of you are down here?"

Apollo kept walking while Kira was talking "yes poseidon and hades... kind of wish they weren't here but ooooooh well". Making their way out of the park, Apollo looked around as Kira asked him how many of them are down here? he turned and looked at her "well pretty much all of us, all but my father Zues" he smiled a little as he turned right and started to walk. "Well Kira not sure how we're going to find the others buuuut lets hope they run into us... and stop.." he wasn't sure if they would run into them at all but it's better then sitting in one place waiting. "So Kira while we walk may I ask what kind of music are you into?" Apollo always being a flirt took the taste a women liked highly, and that let him know if they were any good for him. |

~Kira Robertson~ She shook her head. Unbelievable. Again she considered the possibility of her sanity slipping, but the thought vanished when she made the bleak decision that even if she was, there was nothing she could do about being crazy. "Oh! Well... there are a lot of bands I listen to. I like most genres. Let's see..." she proceeded to list an uncountable number of bands, from the Beatles to Miyavi to Marilyn Manson, and everything in between. The speech seemed endless, until she finally cut herself off with red-faced surprise. "Erm, sorry." She let out an awkward laugh and looked away, embarrassed at the way she prattled on and on and wondering not for the first time why she did. Grumbling at the repeating question, why, she pushed it unceremoniously out of her mind, knowing that she wasn't going to figure it out any time soon and considerably irritated by it. |

![]() Location: Hospital Athena wasn't sure what she was going to do once she left the hospital. Go to the park? But it was getting dark out... as well, it could start pouring again at any moment. New York was becoming more and more like a place straight out of Hades. Ah! Was Hades here? What she should have been doing was looking for the others. She had been distracted but now that she knew she wasn't the only one casted down her by Zeus, she was curious to know who else, if not all of the gods, were in New York. Just by the amount of gods and goddesses she'd found so far within a ten mile radius, Athena easily assumed that everyone was being placed in the same place and not scattered all over the world. Now that would have been a complete pain. When something touched her, Athena had the urge to slice the object in half, except she did not have her weapons and that wouldn't have been the reasonable thing to do. She remembered that times had changed and that in this new age, people touched others without warning or permission. Athena turned to face the nurse, feeling somewhat uncomfortable. Now what? "Yes?" Athena answered calmly, eying the door that was only a few feet away now. She couldn't understand why the nurse would have stopped her. Athena did appear to be healthy so why bother? |

"Mhm." A young, red-haired girl twisted the cord of the phone in her hands. "I know, right?" She gasps incredulity. "She did what?!" Samantha raises a perfectly manicured hand over her mouth in disbelief. Did Bianca know that Tiffany knew that Alejandro's sister's ex-boyfriend was going out with Beth?? (HhMMmmm....) ---------------------------------------------- As the freckle-faced intern behind them chatted animatedly on the hospital's phone, Saint Joseph's head nurse, Gloria, removed her hand from the goddess' shoulder; feeling the threatening aura she gave off, but not caring enough to even regard it. The nurse looked over the rims of her glasses, and glanced at the chart in her hands. She looked back over at Athena. "Are you the girl who came in with him?" She pointed her thumb back in the direction Matthew was being rolled. The wheel chair then made a sharp turn down the next hallway, and was blocked from their field of vision. ---------------------- Samantha laughed obnoxiously, causing questioning glares in her direction. She snorted and began to twirl one of her braids absent-mindedly, "Yah, I know, right…?" |

![]() Location: Hospital There was the obnoxious sound of a woman most definitely not doing her job when so many were still waiting and suffering. It outraged Athena that a girl could stand so close to pain and laugh as she did, speaking of stupid things on the phone. Thank Olympus she did not, ever, think or act in such ways. Athena's attention was yanked back to the nurse and she forced a friendly smile onto her face. "Yes, I was. Is there a problem?" Athena asked, her eyes wandering over to Matthew as he was wheeled out of sight. She did hope that he would be fine. Maybe, once out of this wretched waiting room, people actually attended to the ill. It was wishful thinking but if anything, Athena was hopeful. If they could do nothing for him, or wouldn't do anything for him, then she would find another way for him to get the attention he needed. |

Gloria cocked an eyebrow. "Do you-," she was cut off by a hearty laugh behind her. Gloria shut her eyes tightly, and waited to continue. When Samantha was quiet, she tried again. "Do you-," As if on cue, the young woman resumed her loud telephone conversation. "Have-," "Som-," Gloria's patience was wearing thin. Finally, the nurse snapped around and yelled, "Samantha! Get off the damn phone! Where do you think you are, girl? This is a hospital! Hang up and do your God-damned job!" The young girl stared wide-eyed at Gloria; lower lip quivering as she hung up the phone. She pouted, and looked down dejectedly at the paperwork in front of her. She had been yelled at.... The elder nurse scoffed and turned back to Athena. She rolled her eyes, "Interns..." "So," Gloria continued, mild-manneredly, "May I ask if you have some prior obligation? I mean.." Gloria lowered her voice, and spoke softly, "That boy is going to be in for a rough night....He needs someone right now." She sighed, and looked down at the sheet in her hands; skimming quickly through the pages. "Plus....," Gloria showed the contents of the chart to Athena, "We need someone to fill out this information sheet." |

He chuckled to himself as the scene unfolded. They were lucky this was not ancient Greece if it had been then that fool nurse would have been in trouble. He laughed again as he walked past Athena and reached out to her with his mind. "Farewell my dear neice I shall see you soon I do believe." With that he absent mindly walked through the doors and hopped into the car. He cranked the car and let down the top. He quickly asked someone where the closest body of water was and proceeded towards his destination. It seemed there was a small lake in central park. |

Gloria raised her eyebrows as Poseidon walked out the door. "Wasn't that guy with you....?" After a pause, she shook her head. "Anyway," she placed Matthew's patient chart in her hands, "This means that you are the only one left. Please fill this out." Gloria tapped a finger on the top section of the front form. "You can start with his name." She handed her a pen. "When you're done..., I think that they took the boy to the O.R., if you want to watch and, uh, you know....offer moral support." |

![]() Location: Hospital Really, the girl in the background was obnoxious and rude. Athena's nerves were already on edge because of everything that had occured thus far and now this rediculously immature female found it so needed to laugh and speak so loudly that even the deaf and dead would hear. Athena almost applauded the nurse for scolding her, well, until the nurse turned her attention back to her. "No, I don't..." Athena started, trailing off as the nurse continued the sentence. Oh, she was not helping! Though, Matthew probably did need someone at the moment but how would she explain not needing to be in a hospital bed as well? Maybe he'd be too medicated to realize or care. Again, wishful thinking. But, of course, she felt the need to do good and she found that the moral choice as well would be to stay with him during his time in this Hades-hole of a place. "I'd be glad to- Oh," Athena stated, blinking at the papers that were handed to her. Paperwork? Since when did she ever have to do paperwork? She almost slapped the woman with the papers, but then again, the woman was sincere... though slightly annoying in her own way. Athena wouldn't smite her. "That's fine," she said with a sigh. "And where would he be now?" Athena asked as Poseidon passed by. She mentally sighed yet again. Until we next meet, she sent back to him before turning her attention back to the nurse. "Yes... fine. I'll do it, whatever," she said in a rush as she left to Matthew's room. Goodness, humans were persistent and a bother. Edited by Wicked, September 15, 2010, 5:11 am.

Matthew wearily opens his eyes. "Ugh..." He groans piteously at the sudden rush of pain. He attempts to look around (to find out where he was), even though he knows that without his glasses he wouldn't be able to make out a thing. Still, the light reflected off of the bright-white walls were enough to tell him that he was in a highly lit area...He also has the presense of mind to realize that the only think covering him at the moment seemed to be a gown-like thing that had the consistancy of a paper towel. Feeling a little embarrassed at his exposure, Matthew (painfully) uses one hand to feel around the bed underneath him, and tugs on the bed-sheet until he is, for the most part, covered. "Ah. So you're awake now?" Matthew looks over to the direction of the sound, and stares intently at the blurred figure. The doctor's misplaced chuckle startles him slightly. "If you were awake...," the doctor continued, in a strangely singsongy tone, "you should have said something." He looks away from his chart, and over to the boy who, although battered and bruised in some places, seemed fine enough to forgo having any major surgery. Doctor Martin sighs exuberantly, making Matthew jump (and fall painfully back down). "Hey, be careful! Just because you're not in the O.R. or morgue right now doesn't mean that you shouldn’t be. Your ribcage is broken in three places, and just narrowly missed hitting a major organ. Be grateful that you didn't puncture a lung, you crazy kid...Do you want a tube shoved down your throat? Where are your parents? Jesus Christ!" The doctor stops and rubs his temples. Although he didn't seem like the type to, he really did worry about the kids who lived in this type of neighborhood. Dr. Martian was very adamant with his opinions about the dangers of gangs....(He looks over to Matthew, who seems oblivious to his inner ramblings.) Really, how many gang related incidents did he have to deal with that week? When would it stop? Was everyone other than him blind about the severity of the situation at hand...? "I don't suppose you can call your parents, right?" (Matthew stared blankly at the doctor’s face in answer to his query.) Edited by Matadamia, October 6, 2010, 11:02 pm.

Apollo couldn't help but laugh "glad to see you have a big list of artist" they kept walking through town and Apollo noticed her face turn red. " You know you can talk as much as you wish around me right? I may be a god but no reason for you to act so formal around me, just be yourself if you can alright beautiful?". Apollo smiled as he kept looking forward, he started to wonder if they would ever run into someone in his family. But he knew their was a small chance in the big city. |

~Kira Robertson~ "Ha! Easy for you to say," Kira said with a shake of her head. "You be as casual as you want, but I'm still talking to a living myth." Smiling, she glanced at the god, then stifled a small, embarrassed laugh. This situation seems so silly when I think about it. Sighing, she turned her attention to the steadily darkening sky, stretching as she did and letting her hands rest behind her head. "But I will talk as much as I wish," she added quietly. "I just don't talk much." |

Suddenly he felt a familiar presence. It seemed to be coming from right around the corner from where he know sat at a red light. He waited for the light to go green and turned right. He parked his car and hopped out. The origin of the presence seemed to be coming from across the street where the park was located. He dashed across the street and slowed to a walk when he made it to the side walk. He started to look at the peoples faces as he made his way down towards the parks gate. Thats when he spotted a man that seemed to be out of place in the crowd. He walked up to the man and stopped in front of him. "Well met nephew" he said aloud while simultaneously he reached out with his mind. *Apollo is that you?* There was a brief pause and then he reached out again. *It is I Posiedon.* |

"Well then if you say so" he said to kira, as a man jumped out a car and walked up to him calling him nephew. Apollo's eye's changed a little making out the way he was standing and talking "well to thin my father could even send my uncle down here.... never thought it could be done" he said with a small grin. Apollo looked at him up and down "Posiedon this is my good friend Kira" Apollo then put his arm around her "oh and uncle try not to make a move on this one please". Apollo couldn't help but laugh after doing that. Apollo removed his arm from around Kira "so uncle where do you come from? And most of all, how did you get punished like the rest of us?". Apollo always liked to mess with Posiedon mainly cause since he is fire and his uncle water, it only seemd right to do. Edited by Enja, October 1, 2010, 7:14 pm.

Kira found herself wide-eyed and frozen, staring numbly at the man before her. "P-Posiedon?" she repeated quietly, face red when Apollo mentioned her, put his arm around her. 'Try not to make a move on this one'? She wasn't sure if she should be insulted or embarrassed, so she just continued to wonder at the God of the Sea. Eventually she shook her head and looked away, uncharacteristically shy. She had never felt so out of place. Of course, because my place is in a dirt-covered alley, next to the unconscious homeless man who tried to make a move- not with greek-f***ing-gods. Yet again she fingered her cheek, where Apollo had healed the small gash. She frowned, made sure she kept her eyes from straying back to the gods. I don't deserve this. |

As Dr. Martin walks down the hallway, he runs into Athena, who is going in the direction where he had just come. “Whoooa. Miss, where do you think you’re going? Visiting hours are over.” ((Two sentences and a fragment do not make up for several weeks of not posting. Sorry.))

Nephew it is unwise to use our real names while down here. Do you not understand the implications that could be exacted if the masses were to find out that thre Greek gods were real. We are long forgotten and considered myths. If your father had wanted it to be that we were still known then he would have made it so. Now still your tounge child and do not reveal our nature to any other. As for how I came to be down here. I got the same punishment as the rest of you even Hades is here. If any of the gods were to make a move on her it would be you. Only once before have I made any advance on a mortal woman and you know how that turned out. |

Apollo turned his back so it was facing Posiedon "Now Uncle you speak as if I would care" he was being a smart ass and he was good at it. "I'll do what I wish and what I want with my powers. Father sent me down here so he must know I wasn't going to follow his rules". Apollo turned back around and looked at Posiedon "I'm really not a fan of you telling me what to do... someone who is in the same boat as me ooooh wise Posiedon" he smirked a little. Apollo hated anyone talking down to him, telling him what to do "I guess I do remembeer the last time you were with a mortal women... ended like every other women in your life. Oh and as for the name it's nothing more but a name". He smiled as if he wasn't angry or irratated as he looked at Kira "umm Kira are you alright? you know you don't have to act in any way just for us" he could tell she wasn't feeling at place but nothing he could do to help her feel normal now.... since Posiedon is in front of her. |

![]() Location: Hospital Athena was somewhat uncomfortable wandering the halls of the hospital. It just smelled so wrong, with the sense of death and sickness everywhere. She never did like the aspect of dying. It was one of those vital things that one can learn from experiencing or even acknowledging that it would happen at some point and Athena felt jealous of humans for their ability to die and yet, at the same time, she was all but glad not to have to worry about withering away. Athena wanted to continue watching Earth through the years. Dying would just cut the adventure short. She had to go to the emergency room? Oh, where the hell was she going again? She'd completely forgotten until she bumped into a doctor. Athena looked at him, blinking at the concept of "visiting hours". What if someone was on their death bed? Did family have certain allotted time slots? That seemed just silly. "I'm checking up on a friend who was severely injured a little while ago," Athena said calmly as she attempted to move past the doctor to get to Matthew's room. Athena wondered how the boy was doing afterall. Hopefully, he was getting better and wasn't going to join the likes of his roommates in this Hades. |

Kira looked up at Apollo, his words doing very little to make her comfortable. "I'm fine," she lied, carefully controlling her expression. "No worries." She gave him a somewhat reassuring smile- fake, but hopefully convincing- then looked away as quickly as she could. She couldn't help but think of the way Poseidon spoke of her, as if she were lesser. Because you are lesser, she thought, more so for the way you act in front of them. Letting out a small, unnoticeable sigh, she stared at her feet, shying away from the gods and hoping she just disappeared into the background. |

Dr. Martin sighed. "Well," he started, "I'm sorry, Miss, but rules are rules, and this hospital has certain regulations that must be followed." Just as he finished his ranting, his pager began to beep loudly. Dr. Martin unhooked the device from his waist, and glanced at it before addressing Athena again. "Now, I have some business to attend to. I'm sure that you'll be a good girl and find your own way out?" He gave her a skeptic look before continuing on down the hallway in the opposite direction of Matthew's room (in which, a certain red-headed boy was finally gaining lucidity and, against his better judgment, was attempting to escape the confines of his bed.) |
