Ch. 21 Rhea ii
-Kara-
After we both got ready I lean against the door trying to listen to their conversation in which Ignia was still trying to calm her
"What are you doing?!" Irene shouts
"Calm down baby" Ignia says
"What do you mean calm down?! You saw what they were doing, they're too youn-"
"Young ? They're both over four THOUSAND years old there's nothing young about that"
"That's still young for an immortal and you know it" she puts her foot down "you know they shouldn't be doing those things"
"Th-they don't know what they're even doing" Ignia chuckles nervously
"She's your little sister, idiot!" she says
"She's a GOD, she can do whatever the hell she want" Ignia raises his voice
"That doesn't matter,"
"I know I know, but getting all worked up about it won't do nothing" Ignia argues
"You have to say something though, tell them it's not okay or something" she says
"Babe, how old were we when we had Igneel?" Ignia asks her
She sighs
"Look we can't be mad about it they probably heard us doing it earlier it's only natural they would've wanted to try it" he says
"Hmph* whatever" Irene pouts
"Thank you" Ignia sighs
"Ima go talk to them now" Ignia says
"C'mon" I pull Rhea to the window
"What are you doing?" She asks as I open the window
"We have to go" I jump out
"Wait, why?" She sits on the edge
"Cause" I grab her waist and I help her out
I reach back in for my backpack when I feel Ignia grab my wrist
"I-Ignia.." I widen my eyes
He smiles
"Where you think you're going?" He asks
"S-school" I say nervously
He looks at Rhea hiding behind me
"H-hey big bro" she says nervously
"Hey kid" he smiles widely before turning his attention back at me
"You two take care" he lets go of my wrist "try not to fool around too much" he pulls a blunt out from his pocket
"O-okay..." I back up as he lights it up with a finger
"Drop by the shop later, boy" he adds
I nod "s-sure"
I turn to Rhea "c'mon" I grab her wrist, leading her out
"It's so scary when he's this calm" she whispers
"Y-yeah" I agree
He's King, ruler of the cosmos, the most powerful being in existence but he lives way down here with the people and maintains a steady job
You don't get any humbler than that
If humbler is even a word
Soon we arrived at school the teacher was in the middle of a lesson when we walked in unannounced
"Rhea" he smiles at her "welcome" his smile fades away after seeing me walk in right behind her "Kara.. please have a seat" he says in disgust
I return the same nasty look he gave me
"Ahem*" he clears his throat "Alright as I was saying, because planet Gaia is so large without the power of the Gods it would take the planet a full 12 years to make a complete orbit around the sun, but because of us Gods that time is reduced to 504 days in which we divided into 12 months, that being 42 days every month" he explains
"Ayo what's good my mans" I hear beside me
"Oh man C, how we doing today baby" I dap him up, Coeus sits down beside me
He's 2 years older but he failed this class just as I have so now we're in the same class as Rhea
"Where were you at, man?" I ask
"I was checking up on Kronos" he says
"Kronos, really? How is papa?" Rhea asks
"Kronos ? Oh he's fine" Coeus says "he was training just as hard again and caught a cold" he says
A cold?
Gods don't get sick so that's odd
He's probably been training way too hard
His obsession to surpass Ignia is beyond anything, despite that Kronos grew obsessed with Rhea and raised her like she was his own daughter
"Oh... okay" Rhea gets back to studying
"Excuse me Mr. Akuma if you may, I am trying to teach"
I sigh "yeah-yeah my bad" I apologize
"Anyways our planet measures" he points at the board

"As I said BEFORE" he looks at me "our planet is about 320, if not more, times larger than a more natural planet. A 'natural planet' is born from swirling dust and gas being pulled together by gravity to form into a planet with a max capacity of 10 billion people and only about 9 million different species of animals" he continues
"Thanks to Ignias rise to power our planet has grown exponentially since that fiend Kara was in command" he looks at me
"Tch" I smack my lips
I hate that I looked so much like my father. Everyone treats me like I'm some kind of reincarnation of that monster
The rest of the day went by and after a friendly football game after school I was about to head over to the shop like Ignia asked me too
"Kara!" Rhea jumps into my arms
I fall back on my ass before I feel her shove her tongue into my mouth
I hug her tightly as she grinds her hips back and forth on my crotch
She slowly pulls her head back
"R-Rhea?" I look up at her
"Where you going?" She asks
"Ignia asked me to drop by the shop" I say "what was that for?" I ask
"We're dating now silly" she says as we stand back up
"Oh..." I look around "what if your brother sees?" I ask
"Who? Coeus?" She asks
"Or Kronos, both of them will beat my ass if they see you holding on to me like this" I say
"Don't be so scared of papa" she giggles "he spends most of his time at the castle way up in the alpha section that's like thousands of miles away, not to mention he's gotten sick" she adds
"Hmm... okay" I sigh still a bit worried about Coeus
"So what are you planning to do today?" she asks as we make our way to the shop
"N-nothing, why?" I ask
"Are you kidding? what do you mean why? You know what day it is?" She asks
"Umm..." I think
"It's the day Ignia defeated father silly" She says "seriously how dumb are you Kara" she tilts her head
"Hey, stop being so mean" I frown
"Anyways it's been 9 years on the divine calendar since then" her voice trembles "man, I really miss mom" she sighs
"Yeah" I sigh remembering how I felt about her
"I-it's okay, Kronos was there for me from the start," she says
"Mhmm" I agree with her
… I wonder how Isis is doing
"Ahem*" Rhea clears her throat
"Huh?" I look at her
"You okay big guy?" She asks
"Y-yeah" I nod
"Well, we're here" she says
"Oh..." I look up at the door to the shop "you coming?" I ask
She shakes her head "I don't think I can even look at him after this morning" she blushes
"Oh.. okay then" I walk in
"Ignia?" I find him underneath a car
"Mgh*" he grunts "don't break, don't break, don't break" he begs "ahh" he sighs "fucken finally" he mutters to himself as he crawls out from under the car
"Oh" he looks at me "hey Kara" he grunts, getting back to his feet
"You okay?" I ask
"Huh?" He wipes his hands "oh y-yeah, the cat wouldn't budge" he huffs "a-and I didn't wanna break it" he says "so what's up with you?" he asks
"You told me to drop by earlier" I remind him
"Ahh... shit yeah huh" he remembers as he wipes his sweaty face with his shirt "so where's your lil baby mama at?" He asks
"M-my what?" I blush
He smiles, opening up the door
"Come in babe" he tells Rhea who was sitting on the floor
"Oh... hey mister" she looks up at him
"Come in baby" he says again
"Okay" she comes in
"So what you two planning on doing tonight?" he asks
"N-nothing I was planning on seeing how daddy's doing" Rhea says nervously
"My ass you're planning on missing out on the festival" Ignia says "Kronos will be fine mamas. There's no need to worry bout that man"
"Is this why you wanted me to come over or..." I ask Ignia
"Hehe*" he giggles "lighten up kid" he slaps the back of my head
"H-hey" I stumble forward
"Well I certainly wouldn't want to bother you o-on a day like this m-my lord" Rhea says
"Don't call me that silly" he raises a finger "you call me Ignia or big bro no exceptions, alright kid?" he smiles widely
"Hehe* you got it big bro" she smiles just as widely
"Was this what you wanted me to drop by for old man, or what ?" I ask a bit impatient
"Calm down, calm down" he reaches into his pocket "here" he tosses me a stack of money "its payday, kid"
"Oh..." Right todays payday, only he gave me a lot more than usual, but hey I'm not complaining
"A little extra for your girl" he winks
"Alright, chill out old man" I say after he gets Rhea flustered again
"Anyways" he smiles taking a good look at the both of us "today's a big day, you two should get your rest before tonight" he says as I lead Rhea out
"R-right" I agree before I feel his hand on my shoulder
"Remember, calm" He reminds me of the training he had been putting me through "in order to master your own power you must stay intact with the nature around you," he raises a finger "don't do that and you'll lose all sense of yourself, okay?"
"R-right" I nod
I found it weird that he was telling me this now
Maybe he knows I train behind his back even when I'm not supposed to..
Oops…
We make our way back home where Irene decided to just ignore us for the rest of the day
Igneel arrived shortly after with his wife Layla his daughter Kari and their newborn son
"You want to watch some Netflix?" I ask Rhea as Mia and Kari went off to play outside
She nods as she gulped down the rest of her dinner
"Alright come here then" I open my arms inviting her into the blanket with me
She looks around for Irene before hoping right in as I started the movie
"Is it scary?" She asks
I smile widely
She frowns before just laying her head on my shoulder
"Hehe*" I giggle as the movie starts
...
Soon it got dark by the time the movie ended we could hear the music beginning outside
"Mmngghh" Rhea stretches
"Where you going?" I ask
"I'm going to take a bath" she walks off
"Ouu" I jump to my feet as she walks away
I follow her to the bathroom where she stops me
"H-hey" I frown
"Stop being silly" she whispers
"What do you mean?" I pout
"You know how Irene got seeing us together" she says
"So what" I try getting around her
"Later.. tonight" she smiles "I promise" she closes the door
"Hmm" I frown
