Chapter 79

"Finally! They are both out of the portal." Dusa excitedly said after seeing Aphrodite jump out of the portal with her spirit animal. 

"Love!" Zadre shouted to Dusa. 

"Love!" Dusa answered, and was about to run to where he was but some of the gods blocked her by standing in front of the magical Phoenix, who was carrying her.

"Don't move!" The god of understanding who was one of the gods that blocked her, shouted. 

"Why?!" Dusa angrily ask. 

"... Because that is the son of Hades, and he.."  the god of understanding words were cut short. 

"...That is my partner and he is not evil. Now get out of my way!" Dusa shouted at him, but they still did not allow her to pass. 

Zadre on the other hand could see how the gods were stopping Dusa from coming to him, and he did not like it one bit. 

"Hey! Let her pass right now!" Zadre shouted to them. 

"...we wouldn't let her go and meet up with the son of Zeus. Why are you even here? You are not allowed to step in Olympus." The god of ice stated. 

"...I do what i want to do. Now let Dusa go or else...." Zadre angrily said, and points his spear at them. 

"...Or else what huh? We are not even scare of your own father, and so we are definitely not scared of you!" The goddess of moon spoke out, and conjure up are spirit weapon. All the other gods except the god of pride and mystic arts, conjured up their spirit weapons too. 

They were ready to fight Zadre. 

"...You got to be kidding me." Dusa muttered.

"Look! I don't want you all to protect me from him. You got that?...so get out of my way." Dusa stated. 

"No! We have already acknowledge your sister as a upper god, and so as you. If you go back to him then that means you are betraying the upper gods by allieing yourself with the son of Hades." The goddess of the moon said.

"Okay!" Dusa answered, and climb out of her spirit animal, and walk behind them. 

"I know you will do the right thing." The goddess of the moon stated. 

"...See ya!" Dusa shouted as she conjure up a portal with her magic and jump inside of it. After entering the portal, the other side opened up close to Zadre and Dusa came out of it, and hug him from behind.

"I really miss you my love." Dusa said while she hug him. 

"...I miss you too my love." Zadre said, and hug her tightly. 

"...Why were you two in the portal for a very long time?" Dusa stop hugging him and ask. 

"...i think will be a story for another day." Zadre said and turn to Aphrodite who was now using her magic to heal Eros. 

"...but just know that you sister saved me." Zadre added. 

"What do you mean by that?" Dusa ask him. 

"That will be a story for another day." Zadre stated, and jump of his spirit animal and walk to where Aphrodite was. 

"Story for another day?" Dusa ask her, and also jump off the spirit animal.

"I can't believe she left us for that demon." The goddess of the moon angrily said, and drop down her spirit weapon.

"... What did you all think will happen? You all think she will pick a dump position over the love of her life? Funny!" The god of mystic arts spoke out.

"Damn that outcast goddess. She made a fool out of all of us." The god of understanding said, and release his spirit weapon. 

"...so what are we going to do now? Should we attack?" The god of ice ask. 

"... Are you stupid? Don't you see goddess Aphrodite there?...and didn't you see how easily she restrain Zeus?...her powers have grew even stronger, and planning to kill anybody close to her means death." The god of pride stated. 

"Wait! But i thought goddess Aphrodite was in the meeting room the whole time. How come she just jumped out of that portal?" The goddess of the moon ask.

"Obviously she is not in the meeting room. The person in the meeting room must have been an illusion placed their by the goddess herself." The god of mystic arts stated. 

"You may be right." The goddess of moon muttered and look at Aphrodite. 

"Woah! The goddess looks really beautiful, and strong." The goddess of the moon compliments Aphrodite's looks. 

"...I think we need to go and talk to goddess Aphrodite about the war with Hades." The god of said. 

"...are you sure about that? You can see that she is currently trying to use her magic to save Eros, and the only reason Eros is in that condition is because WE the upper gods did not try to help him when he was being torture by the goddess of Justice and Zeus." The god of understanding said.  

"You are right about that. So i think we should just wait. Let she heal Eros first, then we can go and talk to her." The god of mystic arts who was scared to face Aphrodite said, and jump on his spirit animal to wait. 

"You all are just too scared to face her. I am going to talk to her..." The god of pride said, and walk to his spirit animal. He then climb on his giant beast, and it slowly walk him to where Aphrodite, Dusa, Zadre, and Soul was. 

"Come Eros, wake up." Aphrodite said in her mind as she try to revive Eros with her healing magic, but he isn't responding to it. 

"Eros! Please wake up. I need you." Soul whisper to his ears. 

"...I don't think that healing magic is going to work on him." Dusa said as she walk closer to Aphrodite.

"...I don't care if it is working or not." Aphrodite said and continuing using her healing powers on Eros.

"..why do you say that the healing magic wouldn't work?" Soul ask her. 

"..i think that Eros is in a very deep coma right now. And the only way to bring him out of it's when he sees the face of someone he will want to come back to reality for, or if he feels the power of someone he loves flowing through him." Dusa said, and turn to Aphrodite. 

"I think you should let Soul try to use her own healing magic on Eros if anything will happen." Dusa added. 

"... Eros is my son, and i am going to use my own powers to bring him out of his state. So shut up so that i can concentrate!" Aphrodite shouted at her, and then close her eyes. She continue using her healing magic on Eros for a while, but noting happened. 

"... Damnit! Why isn't he responding to my healing magic?!" Aphrodite ask herself. 

"....Just let Soul try, maybe Eros will respond to hers.

"But Soul don't know how to use the healing magic....or can you?" Aphrodite turn to Soul and ask her. 

"..for Eros i think i will try." Soul stated. 

"Please do!" Aphrodite said, and then conjure up a carpet which carried Eros from her arms. 

"..Okay try now." Aphrodite said. 

"Wait! I need to concentrate first." Soul said and close her eyes. 

"...This is my first time healing a person, so i need to  make sure i don't make any mistakes." Soul stated, and Aphrodite let her to do whatever she wanted to do. 

"...OKAY! NOW!" Soul shouted, and her hands began to glow. She then place her glowing hands on top of Eros body while still closing her eyes, and then strangely appear in a large open room coloured with white.

"What..? Where am i?" Soul ask herself and then look at her hands to see it is still glowing. 

"You are in my subconscious mind." A voice speaks to Soul from behind. The voice sounds really familiar to her, so quickly turn around to see who just talked to her. 

"Eros!" Soul shouted excitedly and then run to his arms. 

"...Soul!" Eros muttered as he hug her. 

"Why did you left me...huh? You promise not to leave my side." Soul ask. 

"I am very sorry my love...i am very sorry." Eros apologize.

"..I will not leave you again, i promise." Eros stated. 

"It's fine." Soul firmly said, and withdraw from me. 

"...come let's get out of here. Aphrodite, Dusa and Zadre are all waiting for us." Soul stated. 

"I am sorry to tell you this, but i don't think i can get out of here." Eros said to her, but she thought he was only joking. 

"Haha! Real funny. Okay, come let's go." Soul drags his hands. 

"...Look around soul. There is nowhere out of this place." Eros said as she drag him. 

"...I don't care, there must be a way out of this place. Somehow!" Soul stated, and began looking around if she will find a door or something that looks like a passway.

"Stop!" Eros shouted, and his voice echoed round the place. 

"...You still don't understand." Eros said. 

"This place is not a place you can escape from. It doesn't have any entrance to go in and our from. When you enter into your subconscious mind, you can't leave. That's just it." Carlos explained. 

"...Look!" Soul turn around and said.

"...I don't care if this place has no entrance. I still will get you out of here one way or the other. Your mother, me, Dusa, and, Zadre are all waiting you. So please let me try and bring you back please." Soul begged him.

"Okay! Fine!" Eros said, but still do not believe that she can bring him out of his subconscious mind. 

"Now! How can i bring out someone from their subconscious mind?" Soul ask herself. 

"...Wait! I wonder if i try to heal you from...." Soul was about to suggest something, but Eros Interrupts her before she could complete what she was about to say. 

"....I don't think that will work." Eros cut in.

"Okay! Then what do you think will work?" Soul ask him. 

"I don't know." Eros answered.

"Alright! But Let me just try it...." Soul said and move close to Eros, so that she can touch him with her glowing hands, but he strangely hits her away and then she fell to the ground. Soul's glowing hands touched the ground, and the large unending white room changed into something different. The large white room turned into orange.

"Eros! Why did you just push me?" Soul ask, and look up but did not see Eros anywhere. 

"Where did he go?" She stand up from the ground and ask her. 

"...Woah! The whole place is now orange." Soul shouted as she looks around. 

"..But wait! Did I manage to bring Eros back?" Soul ask herself.

"I guess there is only one way to find out." She said, and shout out Eros name.

"...Eros! Eros!" She call out for me but her voice only echoed round the place, and got no answer.

"..I guess i revived me." Soul stated. 

BACK IN OLYMPUS...

"SOOOUUL!" Eros shouted and wake up from his unconscious state. 

"Eros my son, you are back!" Aphrodite said and hug him. 

"Mother! You are out of the portal, and you too." Eros said and turn to Dusa. 

"You manage to get out of the sinking ground?" Eros ask. 

"Yeah! Zeus couldn't stop us." Dusa stated. 

"...So what soul said was true. They were all waiting for me...wait! Soul." Eros muttered, and turn around only to see Soul in his side. 

"..Soul i am back." Eros spoke to her but she said noting.

"Wait! No! No! No!" Eros panics, and jump off the carpent. 

"... What's wrong?" Dusa and Aphrodite ask in unison.

"Soul saved me and now she is the one stuck in my subconscious mind." Eros stated. 

"...That can't be possible. You are already awake and that means she has no access to your  subconscious mind. I think she is probably stuck in her own subconscious mind because she needs to be in her own subconscious to access yours....i think." Zadre spoke out.

"Okay. So how are we going to get Soul out of Eros...sorry, her own subconscious mind?" Dusa ask Zadre. 

"..I seriously don't know." Zadre answered. 

"Damnit! Now we rescued one, and trapped the other. How perfect." Dusa stated.

"Come on soul...wake up. I have already woken up, so please do the same." Zeus said to her.

"... Eros, i think you should lay down on the carpet for a while. You are still wounded." Aphrodite said to him. 

"No mother, i am not laying down. I have to bring Soul back!" Eros stated. 

"...I will try to do that, so please don't worry." Aphrodite walk close to him and said. 

"...I need to save soul mother. And besides, i am very okay." Eros said to her while still looking at Soul. 

"... Don't worry i will...." Aphrodite was about to say something to Eros but was Interrupted by Zeus.

"...Free me woman! if you free me, i will free that mortal from the state she is in right now with my magic." Zeus spoke out. 

"... free you?!" Eros angrily ask. 

"It's your fault that she is in that state in the first place!" Eros walk closer to Zeus and shout at his face. 

"Eros calm down!" Aphrodite calmly said to him from where was. 

"It's not my fault that both of you were weak!" Zeus said and smiled. 

"Damn you!" Eros shouted, and began kicking Zeus with all his might. 

"Eros stop! He is still your father... you have to respect him." Aphrodite call out to him. 

"Eros continue. He deserves it." Dusa supports him. 

"Hmmm!" Aphrodite looked at Dusa and grouch. 

"What? He really deserve it." Dusa stated. 

"...Eros stop! I said stop." Aphrodite shouts at him. 

"...You killed people, killed your fellow upper gods and even try to kill your own son. What type of gather are you...huh?" Eros said as he continue kicking Zeus. 

"I said STOP!" Aphrodite shouted, and push him away from Zeus.

"Stop kicking me. He is still your father!" Aphrodite shouted. 

"He is not my father. Not anymore." Eros stated. 

"No! You are just saying that out of anger. He is still your father." Aphrodite said, and try to touch him, but he step away from her. 

"...Do you know that my father here tried to kill me?" Eros ask her. 

"I knew, i saw that when i was in the portal. Please forgive me, he was just blinded by power." Aphrodite said to him. 

"No!" Eros said and conjure up his spirit weapon. 

"...He almost killed me and now...." Eros said and fill in an arrow into his bow. He draw out the arrow, and aim it at Zeus.

"... this is for all the goddesses and gods you killed just because of power." Eros stated, and shoot his arrow at Zeus. 

"No!" Aphrodite shouted, and conjure up a Forcefield around him which then protected him from the arrow. 

"Why is she still protecting him even after knowing that he tried to kill her son?" Dusa who was watching everything that was happening wondered. Even all the gods who was far away, but can still see what was happening wondered too.
