Immortalis : Kallisté

Chapter 13 - CELINE - The Sea and The Daughter of Athena

knowing about the entities that we are about to face, it makes me wanna hurl and pass out at the same time.

NYX the Powerful Goddess, The Personification of Night, Death and Fate.

wait,wait things aren't sinking to my mind correctly, if we are battling the Goddess who has power over fate is this mean we really meant to fail, is this what the prophecy means all along?.

I don't want to spill out what I'm thinking right now, I don't want to cause more problems to Nicholas and I absolutely don't want to imbued more Fear and Failure to genius here, as of now I just have to play along and wish and hope that the Gods and Goddesses of Olympus will be on our side.

at the side of my eye I saw Nicholas Looking at me and before he can even asked me on what I'm thinking, which I can't hide because I can't lie to nicholas.

"So Genius when can we start?" I asked to break the ice since I don't want to talk about the things that can possibly happen.

"I thought you forgot about that, you really can't wait to kill me huh?! don't want to give limos any chance do you?" Mike Replied.

I smiled "Why die on her hands if I can do the honors" I teased him.

"Ha Ha! Very funny!" Mike sarcastically said "Nicholas please teach me instead, to be honest this Girl might be a moirai in disguise, she creeps the hell out of me!" Mike added.

I laughed at what he said, Nicholas also laughed.

we all turned silent after that as we continue to cruise, I decided to go out to catch some breeze.

"Where are you going 4th sister of moirais"Mike Teased me "Very funny genius?! I just need some fresh air, the air here smells genius, I might die from suffocation here!" I replied.

before I went out on the decks, I went to the pantry first to grab a drink.

I quickly Grabbed a Can of Orange juice then I immediately go to the docks.

the air is cold but manageable, the sky is pitched black without the light of the moon and the stars, how can this beauty be the source of our demise, I say to myself.

I took a sip on my drink "How can I protect the both of them?" , "How can we succeed" , "So many questions I wish I have an answer" I didn't notice that Im saying things out loud luckily no one is around.

"Mom, if you can hear me I need your help" I whispered it on the wind, who am I kidding she is busy of course like always!.

I finished my drink and decided to head back to where Nicholas and Micheal is.

I saw them, mike snoozing on the floor, while Nicholas is sitting, eyes shut but I know he is not sleeping.

"Time to baby sit" I was looking at Nicholas, I know he is no dumb, I know he already figured out what I was thinking back then, but I don't want to ask what, my Guts are telling me now is to trust him, and thats what I'm going to do.

I sat next to where they lay, I didn't realize that my body is so tired we are constantly travelling for hours not to mention the showdown with the Makhais and the Goddess Limos, yeah we rested during trips and the talk with the Goddess Aphrodite but to be honest right now I won't be minding to sleep a bit.

I decided to snooze off a bit since the ship is on some kind of auto pilot.

"Celine! Celine" I opened my eyes because of Mike's calls and not to mention he shakes me like an earthquake which is unnecessary, I noticed its already morning.

"Okay, Okay I'm awake no need to dismember my arm out of my body, we kinda need these on our situation right now" I said, Mike just smiled worriedly "What's wrong? what happen? did we just stopped moving?" I hysterically said Mike just nods, in which not to mention it annoys me but this is Mike we are talking.

"I want to answer that sudden death match quiz bee of the nation of yours, but you better look it yourself, Nicholas is waiting for us" Mike said and pointed to the direction where Nicholas is standing.

I stood up and rushed to where Nicholas is.

"What happened??" I asked.

Nicholas pointed to a direction where is covered by a thick fog, by thick I mean very very thick, if you want a visual sample it's kinda like zero visibility x100 which is equals to Blindness, and I also noticed that we are far from the Fog,and the color of it is kinda eerie looking, I know I've seen a fog but not as thick as gloomy as this one, and I think this fog has something to do why we stopped.

"Have you seen it?" Nicholas said.

I nodded "The Fog its weird what's with it?" I said Nicholas shakes his head "Look Closely Celine" He said.

I focused and Mustered all my senses to be able to see what is he pointing at, a shadowy figure is forming from the already dark and gloomy fog.

"I think I'm seeing it already, is that a sea serpent or something?" I said Nicholas shakes his head "How I wish it was just a sea serpent, technically this one is something bigger and way way more dangerous than a sea serpent" Nicholas said.

I look closely back to where the Fog is and I see silhouettes multiple neck and heads, I'm seeing five heads that is connected to a very large body from the fog, I tighten my grip to my dagger.

"Don't tell me its a,,-" Before I can even finish Nicholas interrupted me "Yep its a Hydra in the middle of the ocean".

"Wait aren't these things took refuge onto lakes and swamps?" again I hysterically asked.

"Yes but I know we already encountered one at the sewer of New York, correct?" Nicholas said and I nodded "Compared to that one" He pointed "The ones we fought on NYC is kinda like a joke to that one" Nicholas added.

everything that he stated was fairly truth, I remembered those hydras that when you cut its head off two more spawns out, and I also remembered we choose to run away to that thing, cause that thing is virtually immortal not to mention that the middle one just like my dagger that is made from a hydras fang spews Acid strong enough to melt metal, and if I remembered those correctly NYC's Hydra are more or less 20 feet from tip of the head to tail which is. fairly large, but that size was easily dwarfs by this one, we are looking at roughly 70 - 90 feet tall and looks terrifyingly strong and hungry.

"What should we do?" I asked.

"I don't know, We might lost this ship and our lives if we try to go and try to pass it, Forfeiting the Ship is ok with me but our lives it was a different story" Nicholas said which is not very ok to me.

"How about we go around it?" I suggested.

"No can do, see that thing is putted there by purpose" Nicholas said and I nodded "Are you not aware to where are we?" I studied the place which is purely vast ocean and I decided to shake my head.

"We are at the entrance of Bermuda Triangle" Nicholas said which surprises me "that thing is real?" I asked.

"well yes and no, see Bermuda Triangle is real but what they used to explain it was not the real deal, over the course of the years, Mortals feared the Bermuda Triangle because of legends about it, sh.i.p.s and planes that lost and never to be found up until now" Nicholas said "before I know what was within the two corners of the triangle and one always remain unknown, now we see before our eyes" Nicholas pointed where the hydra is "The third Guardian of the Bermuda Triangle" Nicholas said.

"if this was the first time you seeing this thing then what should we do?remember the miniature version of that thing it gave us a good headache, how can we deal with the big mama version?" I said "I'm still thinking how can we defeat it" Nicholas said.

"wait, wait Nicholas if this is the third guardian what or who is the other 2" Mike said "Probably Scylla on the northeast point and Charybdis southeast point? am I right?" I said and Nicholas Nods.

"Who are those?" Mike said "The Guardians of the sea Duh?!" I said "Can we just go around the fog?" I added.

"see how the fog is avoiding that hydra? I suspect the fog that surrounds the Bermuda Triangle is poison and magically surrounds and kills anything that it touch, so we have no other option but to go thru the Hydra and find a way to defeat it" Nicholas said.

so a Poison fog that is design to do some instant kill with us mortals and a 90 - 100 foot Hydra that is equally poisonous as well and not to mention the Monster Whirlpool Charybdis and the Enchanting Scylla is also on the far end of this path? Great this is just so great.

"Any Ideas?" I asked them both
