The Pack

(the older kids were still silent and looked nervously at each other)

Father - I'll ask you one final time, will you join us or not?

(dontae was silent and he was on his knees)

Dontae - we'll see you in hell

(father was pissed and punched him in the face and dontae fell to the ground and rolled over onto his back and that's when father got back on his feet and stepped back and told atlas to come over)

Father - atlas, come here

(atlas walked over scared and waited for his dad's orders)

Father - end it here and now

Atlas - you want me to kill them?

(his siblings looked around uneasily)

Father - is that a problem?

(atlas swallowed deeply)

Atlas - i just think-

(father choked him and held him in the air)

Father - you're not here to think, you are here to do what i tell you

(atlas struggling to breath)

Atlas - ye- yes, yes sir

(dad dropped him and he feel to his knees and he slowly got up and looked back at his siblings for help)

(he turned back to face his younger brothers and made a huge fireball and he went to throw it down and a shot of ice covered it and it fell to the ground and shattered everywhere and all the siblings looked over and thought it was shadow atlas but instead it was aphrodite as she turned back into her normal self and her father was staring at her with hell in his eyes as he walked over to her slowly and she began to shake with fear and was to scared to receive her punishment from her father and he stopped right in front of her)

Father - so why did you go and do that you ungrateful little-?

(he stopped himself from saying anymore)

(she trembled as the words came out of his mouth because he was simply asking her a question but it came out with so much malice that she didn't know if he was going to strike her down or not)

Father - come on now you can tell me, just tell me why you did it otherwise i'll show you no mercy

Aphrodite - i jus- jus- just didn't think they had to die for their right of choice we should just lock them up or something

(he grabbed his daughter by the shoulders)

Father - you know i can't have any loose ends and you know that they won't stop until we're all dead, you know that right?

(she shook her head yes)

Father - good so let's not do that again because i truly believe that you are the perfect heir to the throne and i need you ready to take over at any given moment and that's the reason i won't punish you but if you defy me again i promise to kill you without blinking

(he loosened his grip on her and walked back to atlas who was waiting to deliver the final blow as the younger brothers all began to regain consciousness and were all groaning)

Father - well looks like the boys are all up and at 'em

Aj - you guys alright?

Timothy - considering we're about to die i'd say i'm peachy

(dontae looked at atlas who was waiting for his dad's orders)

(then all turned and saw their sister who was aj and manipulating his aura)

Aj - holy shi-

Aphrodite - i won't let you take innocent lives any longer and your own kids at that, they have the lives they choose to live and shouldn't be punished for it

Father - please don't do this, i know your powers and i need them so don't make me kill you

(she charged him and started to throw jabs and punches with kicks and he blocked all them and her twin brother tried to interfere to stop her but his dad lifted him and threw him across the room without laying a finger on him and she stopped in her tracks)

Father - anyone touches her i'll end you so stay back

(all the older boys backed away and the younger ones still didn't have enough strength to stand)

Aphrodite - don't make me fight you father we can find another way

Father - i was about to say the same thing but with a twist

(he stood there and she turned back into herself and started to yell out and fell to the ground)

Aphrodite - please no, please, no, no, no

(she was on the floor crying out for her father to stop and started to grab her head)

(all the older boys were looking away and backed off while the younger boys just watched in horror as their father didn't even touch her and whatever he was making her see was obviously severe)

Dontae - hey stop it! Stop what you're doing to her

(his father looked over at him and smiled)

Father - oh this, i'm sorry

(he stopped whatever it was that he was doing and she stopped screaming and was sweating all over her face and neck while breathing heavily but was on her side)

Father - i just made her see her one of her worst nightmare and it wasn't a pleasant one i'll tell you

Father - but seriously she needed to learn a lesson that's the same reason i had to kill her mother
