Chapter 20

"Of course it wouldn't work, you are doing it alone sister!" Eros mother said as she walk closer to them and they all stared at her. "Mother!" Eros said as he's mother walk closer. "My son!" He's mother replied and hug him. "Oh! I thought Hades would have gotten you... I was worried!" Eros said as he hugs his mother. "Hades can't dare touch me..... besides, the war between him and your father and the other gods haven't started when I left." Aphrodite said. "Wait! Are you saying that the war didn't push through?" Eros ask her. "No! Am saying that the war between your father and Hades was about to happen, when I received a vision from the mother of fate in the meeting hall. And before Olympus gates were opened by your father so that the war can commence, I left and head straight to this place." Aphrodite revealed. ".... anyway I glad that you are okay mother!" Eros said. "....where is your companion and my spirit animal?" Aphrodite ask Eros. "The deity of the wind and your magical Phoenix all died protecting him mother, am sure a weak god!" Eros said and bend down his head in shame. "It's not your fault my son! It was fate that they had to do all that." Aphrodite said. ".... I will resurrected my magical Phoenix with my spirit force." Aphrodite said and raise Eros hand up. "You are not a weak god my son! It's the Deity of the west wind fate to die protecting you.... You can't change fate, it would have happened one way or the other." Aphrodite said as she look in the eyes of her son. "Then fate wouldn't be written work that way, they must be a way to change fate and bring back the people we lost before we lost them." Eros said to his mother. "Oh! My son....if only that was possible." Aphrodite said a turn away from him and face Zadre and Dusa. "Oh Eros! I see you allied your self with one of Hades Demons!" Aphrodite said after seeing Zadre and the horn in his head. "You dare call me a demon? I am not a demon. I am the first and only son of Hades!! Well, I was anyway." Zadre said. "You were the only son of Hades, why??" Aphrodite said. "Did he disown you.... Because you look incompetent in my eyes!" Aphrodite said to him. "You damn! Upper gods... You are all thesame. You think you are above everybody and cane speak to other gods like they are below you!" Zadre angrily said and rage began to fuel him up again. "Zadre calm down!" Dusa shout to Zadre and hugs him. "Just calm down love! She is saying that to see your true form." Dusa said to him in his eyes. "I don't scare about that, she should at least show us some respect." Zadre said to Dusa. "Just ignore whatever she says okay!" Dusa said and stop hugging her. "I see this must be the demon you fell in love with. The demon that trick you into creating the Chaos Pearl." Aphrodite said to Dusa. "First of, he didn't trick me into doing anything, that was all Hades. Second he is not just a demon as you called him, he is the demon I fell in love with." Dusa said and scare at Zadre romantically. "You fell in love with this thing? The second must powerful gods in the universe fell in love with the son of Hades and out of love created the chaos Pearl which will destroy the universe and everybody in it." Aphrodite said. "No wonder our mother didn't to hesitate to borrow your powers to the upper god. And they used it to strike you down." Dusa said. 

"So tell me sister did you always COMBINED your magic with the upper gods magics to kill me?" Dusa ask Aphrodite. "Maybe I did maybe I didn't!" Aphrodite boldly said. "And you were my sister!" Dusa said. "I disown you as my sister the day you left Olympus for that demon you call love?" Aphrodite lied. "Mother that's enough...." Eros eventually speak out. "Stay out of this Eros!" Aphrodite shouted back at him. "...but you shouldn't say that to them, Hades....." Eros tried to explain but is mother cut in. ".....Hades what? Hades did plan to create the chaos Pearl by combining the magic from Hate and lust, but Dusa would have stop all that from happening if she just came back to Olympus and begged the upper gods for forgiveness. She would passed through some trails as a human as her punishment for allieing herself with Hades and his Demon son. She would have been forgiven" Aphrodite said. "I would have been forgiven?" Dusa finally talk. "The upper gods who are notorious for casting out gods who associates themselves with Hades. Do you really think they would have given me?" Dusa said, and Zadre who was close to her began to build up rage within himself without Dusa knowing. "Sister....!" Dusa said. "I never regretted falling in love with Zadre even if he was the son to our enemy, and I will never regret it even if the upper gods or you are against it." Dusa said. ".. am guessing you would even die for this demon." Aphrodite said with disgust in her eyes. "Yes! I would because I love him." Dusa said. "This thing you both share that you call love is what started all this. You wouldn't have died if you didn't love the demon." Aphrodite said.  "....But how?" Aphrodite ask quietly as she observe Dusa body. "Why were you reincarnated, and which human body are you using?" Aphrodite ask. "It's non of your damn business." Zadre said. "Well, it is actually!" Aphrodite said to me. "Your human body was why the light magic was created. So that we have kill the body and also your essence" Aphrodite said and Eros look at his mother in shock. "...mum, tell me did you added your magic in the creation of the light magic?" Eros said Aphrodite with a face hiding his rage. "So what if I did add my magic?" Aphrodite ask him. "....Because of you, and the upper gods I lost my friend." Eros said. "So what, he died protecting you and Dusa. It's was he's bad fate." Aphrodite said. "He didn't die protecting me alone. He also died protecting Dusa be because he knew the human body she was using!" Eros shouted. "....so he knew the human!" Aphrodite said. "So who is this human? I am curious to know." Aphrodite said and move closer to Dusa. "Should I tell her that it is Soul?" Eros ask himself as he's mother walk closer to Dusa. 

"Don't come close to her you upper god!!" Zadre said to Aphrodite as she slowly walks to were he and Dusa was standing. "I said don't come closer to her?!" Zadre angrily said to Aphrodite as he's rage increase all over his body. "Stop! Stop!" Zadre said but this time is voice have totally changed and he was slowly turning into his devil form. "You mere demon you date challenge me?" Aphrodite said as she walk close to them. "Get out of my way, demon!" Aphrodite demanded. "I said! Get away from her!!" Zadre shouted at Aphrodite and he's rage totally consumed his body and he turned into his devil form. "If you lay just a finger i will make sure you di..." Zadre almost completed what he was about to say, but Aphrodite hold him in his forehead with his palm and he suddenly couldn't move. "No! Let him go!" Dusa shouted at Aphrodite and conjure up some magic attacks at her, but Aphrodite who was a powerful power goddess instantly reverse Dusa attacks back to her. "AHHHHH!!" Dusa shouted and fell on the ground as the magic reversed by Aphrodite hits her. "Now! Let's see your life force!" Aphrodite said as she close eyes while her palms are still in Zadre forehead. "What?! You are barely even up to an upper god!" Aphrodite said and removed her palms from Zadre forehead. "You!!" Zadre said as he struggles to speak. "Even Hades son's life force and magic isn't up to an upper god, and you still fell in love with him?" Aphrodite ask Dusa who was at the floor struggling to stand up. "....sister you have really let me and mother down!" Aphrodite said as she walk passed Zadre, who was kneeing on the ground, trying to understand what she just did to him that made him loss control of his body. "... And to do what i actually wanted to do!" Aphrodite said as she walk closer to Dusa and tried to put her palm in her forehead too. "STOP!" Zadre shouted as he moved even faster than he ever moved before to where Dusa was. "I said! Take away from here!" Zadre said to Aphrodite and pointed his spirit weapon at her. "I must admit god of hate! Your mind space is pretty strong. Normally other gods will be on a dark trance the moment i touched their foreheads, but your's is different. Impressive!" Aphrodite said as she stare at Zadre. "I don't need your compliments. Just stay away from her." Zadre said as he tighten his grip in his spirit weapon while pointing it at Aphrodite. "Hahahaha! You think you can take me down?" Aphrodite laughed and said to Zadre. "I will try!" Zadre said as he's rage surrounds his body. "You are powered by raga and that your spirit spear channel it!" Aphrodite said as she walks closer to the pointed spear of Zadre. 

"Mother!" Eros shouted to his mother as he saw her walking directly to the pointed spear of Zadre. "This your weapon is quite impressive, but don't..." Aphrodite said as she used one of her finger to hit Zadre spirit away from his hand. "What!?" Zadre said in shock because he couldn't believe that someone just hits his own spirit spear from his hands. "Next time don't challenge an upper god! Especially the queen to the upper gods!" Aphrodite surprisingly moved to Zadre side and speak into his ears. "Now! Get out of my sight!" Aphrodite shouted and slap Zadre with the back of her palm. The slap given to Zadre was so powerful that it carried and projected him far away from where Aphrodite was standing. "No! Zadre!!" Dusa shouted in tears as Zadre flies away and landed on the ground far from her. "Don't worry, if he dies you would come to realise that he wasn't the right one for you." Aphrodite said as she walks close to Dusa. "....now time to check which human body you are in!" Aphrodite said as she near Dusa and levitate her up with her magic. "Stop... What... You are doing sister." Dusa tried to speak as she levitate in the air. "I just what to see the human you were reincarnated into." Aphrodite said as she stretch her hands to Dusa forehead. "No!" Dusa said as she struggles tirelessly as Aphrodite hands came closer to her forehead. "STOP!" Eros said as he came out of no way and hold the hands of his mother so that she wouldn't touch Dusa head and find out that she is actually Soul, the mortal girl she hated and curse because she unintentionally took her worshippers away from her. "What are you doing Eros?" Aphrodite ask Eros and then turn to look at him. "I can't let you check her mind space mother." Eros said as he continue holding his mother's hand. "And why is that? Are you they something you are hiding that you don't want me to know?" Aphrodite ask Eros and gave him a cold look. "Jus... Just don't check her mind space." Eros begged his mother. "Now... I am pretty sure you are hiding something from me. And the thing you are hiding is in her?" Aphrodite said and look back at Dusa. "Sister no!" Dusa struggles to speak to Aphrodite. 

"I wonder want is in my sister that you don't want me to know?" Aphrodite said, but this time she forced a smile on her face. "Mother just forget about all this, and come back with me to Olympus." Eros said hoping he would be able to convince his mother to leave Dusa alone. "No! I want to know what is it you don't want me to find out." Aphrodite said as she tries to stretch her other hand to Dusa forehead but Eros hold the other hand. "Mother please! Let's go!" Eros shouted to his mum. "Get out of my way child!" Aphrodite shouted to Eros. "Just let this go. Please just let this go!" Eros begged his mother. "Take your hands off me, son." Aphrodite said to Eros. "I can't do that!" Eros replied her. "Hahahaha!! I still remembered, when you break into my palace just because of that mortal girl you love. You were very determine to rescue her by all means, but now you are very determine to protect my sister. I wonder if....?" Aphrodite said and look straight into her son's eyes. "Oh no! Did mother just figure out that Soul is the reincarnation of Dusa?" Eros said to himself as he's mother look at him. "....if my thoughts are right, so that mean?... NO IMPOSSIBLE!!" Aphrodite said in realisation and push Eros immediately with her own energy, and then charge at Dusa. "No!!!" Eros shouted as he slowly drift away from his mother about she push me. "Noooo! I can't let her touch her!" Eros said as he drift away slowly. ".....Am very sorry mother." Eros said and then conjure up his spirit weapon which is a bow and arrow, and shoot one of the arrows at his mother and then fell on the ground. The arrow flew straight at Aphrodite with full spead and before it could hit her, she surprisely caught it with her fingers, and look at Eros. "You even dare to shoot your own mother with your spirit weapon." Aphrodite said to Eros as he stand up from the group. "Your spirit weapon was personally given to you by me, and you dare to us it against me?!" Aphrodite shouted at her son as she holds the arrow. "I didn't mean to shoot my arrows at you mother, i just want you not to go close to Dusa." Eros boldly said and then fix another arrow in his bow. "Oh! I see you and that demon really don't want me to touch my own sister." Aphrodite said as she holds the arrow Eros shot at her tightly and throw it back to him with her magic. 

The arrow infused with Aphrodite magic was so powerful and fast that it almost hit Eros in his chest but Zadre show up from no where and smash the arrow away with his spirit weapon. "You saved me?" Eros said to Zadre. "....Don't think i care about you. I just what you to be alive so that the so called Prophesy wouldn't change." Zadre said to Eros. "Are you ready to fight your mother?" Zadre said to Eros. "I just want to stop her from finding out the human within Dusa. I don't want to stop her or anything." Eros replied Zadre. "Suit yourself! I am going all out." Zadre said and prepare himself for a fight. "So you two think you take stop me?" Aphrodite said to them. "Eros! You would be punish if you fight along that demon." Aphrodite said again. "Am sorry mother, i am doing what i think is right!" Eros said and stretch out his bow. "Fine! If that how you want to do it." Aphrodite said to him. "This wouldn't take long!" She boldly said and prepare herself for the battle between her son and Zadre.

"The god of love and god of hate Versus the most powerful goddess in the universe. This should be interesting." The mother of fate said as she watched them through her own eyes.
