Homestead
Faith's Diary: Everyone chipping in on making dragon hide armor, but not enough to work with for all of us. Figure only enough for four, Callista, Gabby, Tiffany and Tristan. Sciron made a quarterstaff made of steel and seemed very well versed on using the weapon. Tiffany even making a few of her toys she so found of using from time to time, wonder what she plan to use those for?
"What do you write in that book of yours" Callista looking at Faith.
"A few thoughts, in case I not survive, but rest of you all manage to return to the Overworld" Faith explained "You think the girls could put their hatred of all things cryptid and come to accept Jacqui as just one of the girls?"
"I cannot speak on behalf of the other girls, I could, but I am having some distrust issues due to Cerise throwing away what we had" Callista deep in thought "I never wanted to be a hater, and I think Tiffany can love anyone human, slayer or cryptid, her heart is like the sun, golden and filled with warmth".
"You sense that as well" Faith said "Amelia I believe is now to the point where she will judge each person on their merits not bloodline"
Hearing what was said Amelia came from around a corner "Yes mum, that be me" saluting Faith and Callista and smiling "I been helping Evippe smoke dragon meat for are journey to come!"
"How is Gabby doing Amelia, you and her been close for many years now" Faith looking for answers. Group unity very important if they to survive.
"I think she coming around slowly, hard to tell sometimes" Amelia answered.

I am sad knowing that my friends will honor my request and kill me once we return to the Overworld. Gabrielle was deep in thought hiding and sitting alone in some dark corner of what passes for a barn, I not even slept with a boy yet, this sadden her even more so, she will never experience many things, a husband, children all because she now a ugly horrid cryptid destined to be slain, hell even her snake like hair was not even poisonous, just garden snake variety. Only reason to live is make sure her friends made it home safe and sound. Gabrielle started to sob for her sorry life.
"Hello Gorgeous, need a shoulder to cry on, or perhaps someone to pummel to death?" Sciron said as he now was standing over Gabrielle in hopes to help cheer her up.
Flushed first with embarrassment and then with rage, Gabby moved with lightning speed and slit Sciron's throat open and blood spilled out then open his abdominal section and his some of his intestines protruded out, then punctured his left lung and slicing a section of his heart open. In response Sciron reached out grabbed Gabrielle and gave her a kiss on her lips. Gabby recoiled away from such a response, and looked on with amazement as Sciron's throat healed over, as did his other wounds, abet he had to tuck in some of his intestines for his abdominal section to heal over.
"Feeling better now?" Sciron joked a little bit.
"I can still kill you, even with your regenerative ability" Gabby retorted
"Yes I know that" And with that said Sciron approached Gabrielle and gave her a hug and kiss, this time Gabrielle not fight back and instead found herself enjoying the moment, French kissing and then removing Sciron's loincloth.

Jacqui was given by her father a spell book with spells besides those of her specialty of illusions. In particular healing magic, so much to learn. A knock on her bedroom door, she opened it to find Evippe there.
"Want to help with some household chores?" Evippe asked looking a little annoyed.
"Oh I am sorry, I was just learning some new spells to help in are journey" Jacqui looking for some good vibes from Evippe in understanding what she and the other girls are needing to prep for.
"I know but spending a little bit of time helping me will help them as well" Evippe informed Jacqui.
With that said Jacqui whipped up an enchantment that animated brooms and little invisible helpers came alive and started to clean up not just her room but rest of the house. Evippe looked pleased ... witches have it so easy ... one spell does work of dozens of people in half the time.
Jacqui even started to dance and sing as she herself joined in on the cleaning.

Imbrus was perspiring a lot and had Tristan make more then one run at getting refreshment of beverage so as to not dehydrate. The forges heat was hot, and some contraption Tiffany made so she can lay on her back and get the bellows stroking the forge even hotter with just using her legs while she fidgeted with her hands making casting molds for some flute playing toy musicians. He thought such a waste of time but she such a powerhouse able to go on what seems like hours without slowing down keeping bellows super hot so he not beget her using her hands for recreation in creating a few toys.
Tristan and the other girls, except Gabriella and Scion not pulling their weight around the house concerned Imbrus.
"What makes Gabby and Sciron so special they not helping out like you other girls and Tristan?" Imbrus asked "You all helping with the dragon hide armor and making some swords and shields"
"I cannot speak on behalf of the roguish Sciron, but Gabby been thru horrific things of late and needs time to sort them out, so we girls will more then pull her weight and then some" Amelia was very vocal in defense of her friend Gabby. Amelia, Faith, Callista and Tiffany each kissed the tips of two of their fingers and raised them in solidarity.
Their solidarity was so touching that Imbrus never broached the subject of Gabrielle again.

Jacqui stayed in house with Evippe helping with sewing of back packs and other gear such as sleeping mates that needed replacing and for the boys. Coming to the forge to give finished some finished sewn pieces for the armors.

Sciron came to forge form time to time to help, and be fitted for a metal breast plate, but much of his time with spent with Gabrielle. One day he came back to the homestead laughing and nearly 'drunk' with bee venom and giant bee stingers sticking out all over him.
"Oh no" Shrieked Gabby, this brought the other girls running
"What the matter" The rest of the girls asked.
"Poor Sciron looks like he about to die" Gabby looked concerned.
"Well deserves him right for not pulling his weight around here" Callista stated her opinion "Why is he carrying a big pot"
Faith smelled then tasted the golden liquid "Honey, the doofus collected it from a hive of giant bees by the looks of the giant stingers all over his body"
"He been pulling his weight he just not like to explain how he doing it" Gabrielle defending Sciron.
This was not lost on the other girls, it seems that Gabby and Sciron are now an item, and Amelia was even smiling.
"Yeah what else has he done besides nearly getting himself killed by giant bees to get us some honey" Callista asked.
"Well he been gathering giant snails and then feeding them some noodles to be used for future nourishment" Gabby started to explain "Once they stop eating for a period of time they go into hibernation, he providing food that will last us a long time, honey not spoil easily either"
"Gabrielle is correct" Evippe chimed in "I just wish Sciron explain more what he was planning instead so we can assist him more effectively"
"I ... be ... fine ... in ... a ... days ... time" Sciron blurted out.
"Oh poor baby" Gabby was helping pull out stingers and lavishing Sciron kisses.
Amelia all smiles turned to Faith and the others with two thumbs up "Are old Gabby is back to new self even better then her old self!" The girls smiled even if that not make much sense, even Jacqui was happy for Gabby.
"It be only two more days and you all be ready to start your Quest to find the Bronze Anvil of Heaven" Evippe stated weeping softly, she so loved having the girls around. Took the edge off of such a dreary existence of just making cutlery for denizens of Hell, after all what does one need with 60,000 knives, forks, and spoons for anyways. One thing for sure the girls and guys will not be lacking for cutlery.

Thistle Forest
Faith's Diary: In the morning we are to traveling to vineyard of the Cyclops and take from them a barrel of wine, that some fifty-nine gallons, figure 600 pounds for us to haul around. Sciron, Tiffany, Tristan, and Gabby the best muscle we have but even if we put that barrel into a sling, that still a bit much. Imbrus said that bribing the Titan with wine would go a long way to getting from him marvelous weapons that would truly be effective against the Hounds of Cerberus. I had to convince Imbrus that we not Hercules and that perhaps as Keg would suffice, that would be only 150 pounds about a quarter barrel. Imbrus provided us two empty kegs he had stored and gave to us to use.
Good thing Jacqui brought a camera when we went camping, otherwise who would even believe us?

"Yum, love the smell of bacon" Sciron said looking hungry.
"You better appreciate how good I have become cracking open cockatrice egg shells" Amelia smiled as she made conversation at the table "Eat well, after this it rations and dragon jerky."
"You really become a great cook Amelia, especially since you dealing with much infernal flora an fauna" Jacqui was very impressed.
"Thanks I have had two great teachers in Infernal Cooking" Amelia laughed.
"Yes much better cook then Faith" Tiffany smiled. Faith frowned just a little.
"Aw that sweet of you to mention me and Utooli as great teachers" Evippe glad she could pass on some of her recipes "Hope you enjoy the cookbook I gave you Amelia"
"I will treasure it always" Amelia stated "Have even added a few recipes from Utooli to it as well"
"We will miss having you all as guest" Imbrus becoming emotional.
Evippe moved around the table giving each of the girls and guys a kiss and hug "I will miss each and every one of you"

Faith Diary: With backpacks on and one hog to use as beast of burden and future feast it was off onto the quest. And one crude drawing of a map in her diary of where to go.
The girls and guys waved goodbye to Imbrus and Evippe.
First obstacle is the Thistle Forest where nearly every plant had prickles, and some of critters have sharp quills like porcupines.

Sciron was leading the way with a machete with Tristan and Tiffany following kicking aside the foliage and cutting off other smaller sharp prickles so rest of us can follow easily behind.
"Beau papillon" Gabrielle commented on seeing a butterfly with sixteen inch wing span.
"Indeed, not as scary as the giant hellish porcupine we had to shoo out of are path about an hour ago" Callista smiling, looking at her shield still showing some of the quills protruding from its surface "This makes a good place to break for Lunch, Tristan still needs more practice with his bow and arrow".
"It if was guns, the shoe would be on the other foot" Tristan said while smirking.
"Well at least this forest has lots of berries to chose from that are edible" Amelia coming back into camp with a bowl filled to brim "And they really big too."
Amelia was feeding berries to Callista in a playful manner, and Callista returning the favor.

"So Jacqui ... " Faith started to put on the charm.
"I not Lesbian or Bi" Jacqui quickly interjected.
"Killing the mood Jacqui" Faith smiled "Was only going to ask why you so smiles all the time."
"Well one day it dawned on me that life too short for frowns and trigonometry, so figure I will enjoy boys, life, more boys till some accident or slayer claims my life" Jacqui explained "I love you all, so I am sadden that people hate me because I born with cryptid blood."
"Me and each of the girls should owe you a life debt" Faith rubbing her right leg below her knee cap "I speak only for myself, you have my word that I will never take your life."
"That means so much to me" Jacqui then gave Faith a hug. Then Jacqui felt a hug from behind "Me too!" Amelia cheerfully added "I will never take your life, lips sealed your secret is safe with me"
Jacqui looked around and noticed Callista looking on.
"My grandfather always fond of saying 'Amor Conquesta Todo' he said that meant Love Conquers All" Callista stated, with that she kissed two of fingers and then proceeded to place them on Jacqui's forehead "A promised that I not put two arrows into your coconut unless you betray us and to keep your secret"

Gabby noticed the mood of the camp changed, and with that she jabbed Sciron in the ribs, "no kisses for the moment, something important happening." Overhearing what Callista said, Gabby moved over to Jacqui, kissed her two fingers and touched Jacqui on the forehead as did Tiffany"
"Group hug!" Faith gleefully smiled, and noticed how much more relieved this made Tiffany.
"I figure you hated me the most Gabby" Jacqui looking baffled.
"One can say I this trek has been very transformational" Gabby stated "Figure before this all ends I think we might yet be best of friends"

Faith's Diary: We all came to accept Jacqui as a sister at lunch, a big step for us all. Other then a few minor mishaps the rest of day travel and that of the next morning was uneventful. Should be at the Vineyard by noon tomorrow.

I apologize for my grammar/spelling and other errors, it is the reason I am only story teller to a gaming group of role players that are my real life friends, and not an award winning author. :(( Hopefully someone enjoying the story so far. A friend of mine said he help me correct my mistakes and then I replace what badly written with better stuff, he always said my muse a bit flighty and strange. I take no umbrage if anyone not like it cause of my bad grammar/spelling.

Tartarus Trek
The Vineyard
Tiffany enjoyed scouting the cyclops's hamlet and was using Jacqui's camera to take a few pics of the cyclops. She found the winery, seemingly one of a few they had. The cyclops raised both hogs and sheep as animals, and one family had a bear as a pet. Once the recon was over, she returned to the group.

"Finished my sweep of the area, and found one winery not far from the edge of the Thistle Forest, we just need to figure a way to get 600 pound barrel out of winery and out of sight long enough for us to fill the kegs" Tiffany said.
"I will hold back and act if only things seem to be getting out of control to bring down a cyclops" as Faith explained plan "Jacqui you need to charm the cyclops in the Winery, with Tiffany and Amelia helping her if needed"
Pausing for a moment Faith resumed "The rest need to get that barrel out of the Winery and into the Thistle Forest"

With game on Amelia, Jacqui and Tiffany timed the routine of Cyclops and when his back turn they quickly created with barrels and hay a manikin that roughly looked like a female cyclops, it was Jacqui turn to bring the cyclops libido to life and to perceive it to be the love of his life with an illusion spell.

"Oh Bryce, I not see you come in" the male cyclops said out loud, with his own mind filling in whatever he wanted his true loves desire words to be.

Amelia, Jacqui, and Tiffany could barely keep from laughing out loud.

Mean while Callista, Gabrielle, Sciron and Tristan moved quickly to get the barrel on a sling and out the door, then to the forest. Faith on look out noticed a female cyclops about to make out the four making off with the barrel and quickly overwhelm her mind so that she stood still and oblivious to all that around her. With that out of the way, Faith and all the others make their way to the forest safely.

Faith to Jacqui "how long will your charm last?"
"Well since it something he wants I say at least five to twenty minutes maybe longer" Jacqui replied.

It was just about twenty minutes when the girls heard some grunts and howling from the Cyclops Hamlet. Faith figure it take a bit longer for them to figure out a barrel is missing and they should be long gone.

Each of the girls partook of a goblet filled with cyclops wine, as they filled the kegs.

"Too bad this is stealing" Tiffany feeling a little bit guilty.
"Well Imbrus was fairly sure that the only way they let us partake of the wine was if we were basting in it" Callista chimed in.
"I know, but it still stealing" Tiffany reminded the group that what they did was wrong.
"Well the alternative would be to try to bargain a deal, have eighteen foot tall cyclopes attack us, then in turn we kill many of them and perhaps suffer some casualties ourselves" Faith said seeking to put to rest any guilt any of the girls may have "With that out of the way, it time for us to move on."

Amelia also cut some fresh grape bundles, each grape the size of an orange. As additional provision. They stayed in the Thistle Forest for rest of the day as the cyclops not keen on getting all cut up by walking into the forest.

Tartarus Trek
Shaded Dell
Faith's Diary: The Thistle Forest was the road never traveled by the denizens of Hell. Thus we are dealing with mostly just hellish animals on there journey to Mount Marmaro, where Bronze Anvil of Heaven rest and chained to it Tityos the Titan. Imbrus was confident that the Titan could assist us. We been traveling two days when we now and Callista picked up signs of a hunting path, this making it easier for us to travel, but also means greater chance of danger.

"The forest canopy the same height even thou we are descending into a dell" Tiffany said as she came down from perilous climb "I can see the shiny Anvil, but figure it should have long since greenish due to oxidation".

"How much time do you think it take for us to reach the Bronze Anvil of Heaven Tiffany?" Faith asked.

"Oh two days tops, one day if we get some decent travel time because of the hunter's paths that all lead to Mount Marmaro" Tiffany estimated.

"Foot prints indicate something 'human' making the paths as no vegetation over seven feet in height is broken" Callista added.

Some time latter "We are surrounded" Gabrielle warned her companions "I sense the heat from their bodies"

Giggle "Good thing we have glamour on" Jacqui smiled.

A few crude arrow hit the ground before them. "Halt" A stern woman's voice said "Identify yourselves."

"Faith and these are my companions" Faith said calmly and gesturing to her friends "We mean you no harm, only passing thru, only seek hospitality of some place to rest, then we leave tomorrow. "
Faith noted the aura of the those that surrounded them was scared, human fear.

The woman who spoke in a stern voice then descended to the ground on rope made of vines. "I am Hyacinth" the hazel skin beauty and leader of this small community, who was dressed in fur armor, and weapons mostly made of wood "Welcome and Hospitality" she said a little unsure.
"What brings your way to us?" Hyacinth asked.

"Well we on are way to Mount Marmaro to visit the Bronze Anvil of Heaven" Amelia said smiling.

"Then you seek death" Hyacinth said "You might want to consider adding your numbers to community, can use fresh breeding line."

"No can do" Tristan said "Had enough of demons, succubi, and hellish environment, we are heading to the Overworld."

A hush came over the group of community as they entered into the compound proper, which was very cozy and inviting.

"Oooo mum that sounds fantastic" A young hazel skin man with a big smile and dreadlocks looked at the direction of the Faith and companions "Can I go with them, I always wanted to see Chariots, the Hanging Gardens and rest of wonders of the Overworld".

"And who are you?" Sciron feeling a bit left out, asked the young hazel skin man.

"My name is Daedalus" Daedalus said fascinated by Sciron's dark green skin.

"Well our supplies are started to get thin enough we not really need the hog for a beast of burden any more" Amelia added "It make a good feast!"

Tiffany looked suddenly sad, she been treating the hog as a pet, and looking very sad as Amelia was taking it to be slaughtered. Tiffany shed a tear for her hog friend.

Amelia found a friend in Acantha as it was like contestants in Hell's Chiefs. Each seeking to outdo the other in cooking up a feast.

Faith's Diary: Much conversation passed between the group and the citizens of the small hamlet, each exchanging stories how they came to be in hell. Seems from time to time in history groups ventured into hell only never to return, so small number learned to live and die and made the hamlet there home. Yet the story is always the same, a pack of Hounds of Cerberus always killing those that try to leave. The survivors of this hamlet content to live in Hell then to brave death at the gnashing teeth of the hounds.

"I am sure with the whole hamlet added to are strength we will all be able to leave Hell and make are way to the Overworld" Sciron looked confident.

"You seek only death" Hyacinth said with firm and sure voice of reason "Yet you mention the Bronze Anvil of Heaven, chained to it Tityos the Titan, what do you expect to accomplish by visiting him?"

"Imbrus was certain that the Titan would assist us" Tristan said "Besides death be better then living out life in fear in Tartarus".

"Even before you can try to reason with a Titan you must kill the Hydra and the two giant vultures that feed on his liver." Hyacinth informing the girls of further trails they to face.

"What is it with Tartarus that everything is big and with many heads?" Callista looked bewildered as she ate of the feast. The pork was delightful.

When everyone was finishing up the feast. Daedalus approached his mother "Mum I am traveling with them to see Tityos and then see the Overworld."

Hyacinth looked very sad, but he of age to make up his own mind "You have my blessings" then turned to Faith "Take care of him." If even half the stories told by this group of young men and women was true they her son may very well live to see the Overworld. A world she only dreamed about.

With that the group posted guards, rested and looked for an eventful tomorrow.

The Hydra
Faith's Diary: Having Daedalus along has been a boon as he knows the quickest and easiest way to ascend Mount Marmaro.

"So Daedalus you have any unique talents or fighting skills?" Callista asked.

"Well I have the gift of precognition. It allows me glimpse of the future, so I generally know where to strike and how best to avoid being hit" Daedalus rather proud of his ability "Also I get dreams of the future, like seeing you all and knowing you be coming."

"Well if you join Apollo Academy, you will make their badge of honor raids, horrific on us" Callista smiled "After all the past failures they have had, they will need an edge."

The girls all chuckled, Tristan frowned and rubbed his once broken arm.

"Have you seen this hydra" Tiffany asked "if so how many heads does it have?"

"The hydra has dark blue and black bead-like scales, in strip like pattern across its body, it has sharp horns on its head and spiky beards, five heads and long spiked tail that is very nasty" Daedalus said very enthused "It has long necks, and its breath most fetid, and it recovers from wounds fairly quickly."

"What does it eat, besides us" Tiffany asked.

"Well the mountain has assorted rock nest with huge eggs" Daedalus explained "That only hatch when one of giant vultures die, the hydra is very territorial so even if not hungry it will still kill all but the vultures and the Titan."

After a while climbing, Daedalus motioned the group to stop "That fetid smell is the breath of hydra, he is waiting above us, I have seen this."

"Jacqui and I will take to the sky on her broom and rain arrows down on it and hex blast the beast" Callista stated, with careful aim she took out two of the eyes of one hydra head.

Jacqui did as directed and her hex blast stunned one of the heads.

"Tiffany get some tail" Faith laughing, while she and Gabby flash step quickly to the top of the ledge, and Faith sent one of the hydra's head into dream land, Gabby then cut the forked tongue of the one blinded by Callista.

"You and your puns" Tiffany blushing "Understood" and with that Tiffany bounded up high and fast over the top of the hydra unto it back chopping at its tail.

"One chew toy coming up" Sciron said as the hydra's maw came biting down on him, and he placing his steel quarterstaff to keep the hydra's mouth from chomping down on him.

Amelia threw Elizabeth (her volley ball) and bounced off one eye and then a 'pop sound' as Elizabeth missed her mark and got deflated on one of the spiky beards of the hydra "Eek! Poor Elizabeth been spiked" Amelia said dismayed.

Daedalus taunted the fifth head, and with grace Daedalus avoided being bitten by the hydra, then followed up with an axe to the hydra's neck, Tristan did the same to the same hydra neck.

The blinded hydra head clumsily missed Gabrielle as it was not able to target her with any of its senses.

"Sciron I did not know men could pole dance" Amelia was laughing really hard, as Sciron was doing his best to hold onto his quarterstaff as the hydra flailed back and forth. The group laughed at Amelia's joke.

Just as the hydra head recovered from being stunned by hex bolt, Jacqui laid another hex bolt on it to keep it stunned and out of battle.

Faith found the primal mind of the hydra overwhelming as she was not able avoided it biting her dream self in the dream realm. Gabby noticed that pain that Faith was in then noticed the dreaming hydra head shaking as if was suffering a nightmare.
Both Daedalus and Tristan once more chopped at the neck of the hydra and it started to squirt lots of blood out from its artery. Then almost instantly the neck popped off and sealed off the artery, the head of the hydra continued to wiggled and lunge at both Daedalus and Tristan. "Oh bloody hell, the head not even have the dignity to die as soon as it chopped off" Tristan looked distressed.

Tiffany was dodging the spiked tail, so Callista aimed at where Tiffany been chopping to help sever the tail, it helped a little bit, but still needed another two serious blows for the tail to be chopped off. Amelia and Gabrielle gave their heave-ho and that severed the tail. This freed Tiffany from tail duty.

"Avast me lovelies, me pole is bending and the beastie got a liking to me taste" Sciron was being funny but seriously at the same time as he swung his sharpened knife trying to cut off forked tongue free form the head of hydra "Could use the help here... Opps!" and with that Sciron got swallowed down the throat the hydra.

Callista saw the eyes of hydra clearing up from last she shoot arrows and repeated her action again, keeping it blind. Faith and Jacqui stayed the course and kept their respective heads out of action.

Daedalus taunted the blind head into trying to strike him, while rest of the team made short work of the hydra head that swallowed Sciron.

"Tide of battle in are favor" Faith said "Press the attack, only three more heads, one sleeping, one stunned and last blind"

It was only a few seconds latter that all the heads laid severed from the stump of the still living body, and just a few more seconds to find the heart and stops its beating.

What seemed a minute the group finally found Sciron, who stunk to high heaven and laughing about the whole ordeal.

Amelia recovered Elizabeth her volley ball and stuffed it with rocks and ground till it nearly round again.

Faith's Diary: The group took time get Sciron cleaned up. It now just over thousand feet climb to the summit and where they will again fight for their lives against the giant vultures that eat the liver of Tityos.

The Summit
What a sight the girls and guys beheld when they finally climbed to the summit. There a colossal Bronze Anvil at least sixty feet wide, and chained to it the Titan Tityos, who from head to toe some 30 feet in height. His feet and hands chained and unable to do much more then endure the pain of the giant vultures as they ate his liver.

Amelia ran as fast as she could, jumped up onto the Titan and shoved Elizabeth down the throat of a vulture. The vulture did a wing-jerk reaction flew up into the air, startled by the turn of event and unable to breath.

The rest of the group was shocked at the decisive action of Amelia.

Faith did what she often did and tried to enter into the mind of the vulture but found nothing 'grasp' onto. That a first for Faith, that trick always worked before.

The other vulture then pecked at Amelia opening a gash in her sides and partaking of Amelia innards, the shock bringing Amelia to her knees.

"Amelia!" both Callista and Gabby cried out loud.

Callista then acted with all her might shot an arrow into the heart of the vulture, and buried the arrow so deed into the vulture no one in the group could see it.

Gabrielle threw her battle axe with such force that it caused a gash to open in the neck of the vulture that was intent on eating Amelia alive.

Sciron moved quickly and interposed himself between Amelia and the Vulture, he slashed greatly with his sword and chipped a bit of the beak and soon found himself suffering a similar fate as Amelia "Ha! you bird brain, I can regenerate from your wounds as long as it not my heart or head you eat."

Tristan took careful aim and shot the vulture that has Elizabeth wedged in its throat, in its wing causing that vulture thrash about in the air and come crashing to the ground.

Tiffany moved quickly to grab Amelia and brought her to Jacqui "Can you heal her?"

"I will" Jacqui said solemnly, thinking this the first time she be using a healing spell, she cut her hand slightly and blood dripped into Amelia's abdominal then invoked healing words of power "Lääkitä Liha Henkiä". With these words Jacqui felt pain in her abdominal area and observed Amelia wounds heal and she breathed again.

Amelia eyes then opened sparkling with love and she then grabbed Jacqui and kissed her, when the kiss ended she said "You hands healed me, I felt your loving soul!" and tears welled up in Amelia's eyes as she cried.

Daedalus took a staff and wedge it into a rock just below the vulture not chocking and pushed and the rock went tumbling down and with it the vulture. "Now Tityos crush the vulture with your foot".

"Clever you are Son of Apollo, I will do so with pleasure" Tityos replied and the girls and guys alike heard the vultures head become like paste under the titan's heel.

The other vulture muscles and lungs starved for life giving air felt like it was burning, was not able continue the fight, instead it died.

"Well done" Tityos filled with joy "Before I grant you all an audience with I Tityos the Titan, I will need to be more presentable, will you lovelies bath my glorious body and dress it for such a magnificent occasion!"

"Gah! Us girls are not slaves to men" Callista said angrily ...

"Brahahaha" Tityos roared out a laughing that shook Mount Marmaro "No, no you not understand, I meant those lovelies" as he gazed on Daedalus, Sciron and Tristan "Do you not know that the most beautiful form is that of a male body?"

"Oh .... by all means boys ... time to get wet and soapy" Callista said "think I will sit back and watch your wet bodies and togas, remember a few sexy flexing of muscles".

With that the boy where embarrassed and girls giggling.

Real life delayed this portion of my fan fiction, hope someone finds something fun to take away from reading it.

Tartarus Trek
The Audience

Faith's Diary: Standing in presence of Tityos an Esper Titan, who creating matter with but a thought, I stood awestruck. First bowls of water, towels, till he was cleaned from head to toe with the help of the boys.

"So you all want to go home and for that you will need to defeat the Hounds of Cerberus" Tityos exclaimed as he partook of gift of wine "That I will help you with, and more so with each gift you give."

Then silence was replaced with more gasping of breath as brilliantly shining swords, spears, shields, breast plates, greaves and helmets appeared at are feet.

"These are superior to what you have and will aid you much, these are given for the reprieve from the vultures, bath and wine provided" Tityos stated rather proudly "But I have just a bit more to offer, if you do but another favor"

"We not able to free you from your bindings" Faith explained as she knew what is bound by Zeus stays bound.

"Nor do I expect you to have the means to do so" Tityos stated "I asked that the mightiest of you all to step forward"

Sciron stepped forward, and the girls all pushed Tiffany forward as well.

"Well then two mighty warriors" Tityos said "Which between you are the strongest?"

Sciron picked up four of the girls and did some squats to show off his strength.

"Hold onto the girls tightly Sciron" Tiffany said and then picked up Sciron who while was holding the 4 girls and did three great bounding leaps around the summit. This left her nearly exhausted.

"I withdraw my standing as mightiest of the warriors, but still the most durable" Sciron chuckled "And I can pole dance!" The group laughed that Sciron could make fun of himself.

"To you Tiffany, daughter of Artemis I give to you a magical belt, also known as a girdle that will aid your strength" Tityos said "I ask that you use that and your sword to strike my skull till bone shatters but no more."

Tiffany looked a bit timid that not sound very hospitable of her to hack away at someone that been aiding her friends and herself.

"Ah, be not afraid daughter of Artemis, I need you to break thru my thick skull so I can bequeath to you more gifts that my thick skull would otherwise prevent me from doing so" Tityos assured Tiffany "My body will heal rather quickly so you need not fret harming me more then giving me a headache."

With a mighty slash of her sword she felt the sword connect with the titan's skull.

"One more mighty swing daughter" Tityos implored.

Second blow smacked with a mighty crack and a bits of skull chunks was sent flying thru the air.

"Ah ... thank you daughter of Artemis that will do" Tityos explained as a glowing portal formed at the titan's forehead and out from this portal stood a Greek boy with platinum curly hair "Welcome my son Alexander, my thought made flesh!"

"I asked that he accompany you to the Overworld" Tityos requested.

"How is that possible that thought became flesh?" Daedalus asked.

"Indeed! Is this not how Athena came from Zeus?" Tityos stated matter of fact.

"It is indeed" Faith smiled, only if she could make thought flesh.

"Father, I am flesh!" Alexander examined his own hands and admired his own body in the reflective shields made by his father.

One by one Tityos called each up member of the assembly to give to them a special gift. "To you Amelia you sacrificed your beloved Elizabeth and I return her to you, she cannot be punctured". Tityos gestured to Callista "I grant to Callista, a mighty bow, with bow string that cannot be broken."

"I sure could have used that a few months back" Callista smiled.

"To you Faith, a silver ring of clarity and friendship, so you can never forget anything or anyone you call friend" Tityos smiled "Remember friendship is more sacred then marriage."

"A most gracious gift, I will cherish it forever" Faith remarked knowing that such a gift would not have allowed Cerise to cloud her mind as she did.

"To you Tristan, guns made of the same divine metal as the armor shields and swords" Tityos explained "and plenty of ammo for the coming fight." "And to Daedalus I give a baby black stallion, treasure it."

"To Gabrielle I give you gele and matching jewelry (a brooch, necklace, and earrings)" Tityos said "If you asking what a gele is it is beautiful piece of cloth that can be arranged upon your head to hide your snakes, I also giving you a book to show you how to tie a gele and a few contact lens that hides your snake eyes."

"Err ... Thanks I think" Gabrielle said "I am Caucasian, not African decent, think that would look awkward."

All the girls and guys looked in awe at Gabrielle new looks.

"It is very regal Gabrielle" Amelia said "It so fresh and different, and you could go out in public and stand out most exquisitely!"

"To Sciron the world you go to has full body concealer abide 4 tubes to cover your magnificent dark green skin or you could simply say your skin is life choice of full body tattooing" Tityos laughed "so instead I will offer you a stead as well except it mechanical, a motorcycle."

Sciron looked at the motorcycle "I almost looks like the one my friend Double D rides" said smiling.

"Who is Didi?" Gabby was looking jealous.

"Oh he is about two and half feet tall, red skin and big yellow horns and hangs out with a nine feet tall floating undead skull with mohawk" Sciron was smiling "I love it when they kick it, they all the rage in Hell."

"Brahahaha, oh Jacqui you just too funny" Tityos laughing "Your thought is just too funny, very well each of you get a T-Shirt that says 'I been sent to Hell and back and all I have is this lousy T-shirt' ... Brahahahah."

"To you Jacqui I give a mystic crystal that hangs from a necklace" Tityos stated "It will help you with spells."

"Farewell and may the gods watch out for you all" Tityos said sadly.

Faith's Diary: We said are goodbye to Tityos knowing that the next day he will suffer punishment as the vultures return to punish him. We also took with us the hydra hide as well as the gifts given to us. We all wondered what gifts where given to his son Alexander who now travels with us. Figure we be at the ferry man's crossing in two days time.

Tartarus Trek
The Hounds of Cerberus
Faith's Diary: Travel was relatively uneventful other then one group of demons looking to pick a fight as they wanted the horse for meat, but was persuaded otherwise. After all they knew we just another bunch of demons except we had a few trophies that caused them to pause, like hydra heads and giant vulture heads. If we that badass then no need to press the fight. Second day after leaving Tityos we camped at the Ferryman's Crossing and decided to prepare for the fight the next day, dug pits with spikes. Figure we might as well have decisive battle in are favor! That night we not sleep very well as the baying of the hounds could be heard for miles.

"Alrighty campers we got to move on to the Otherworld" Callista was shaking everyone up except Amelia who was already cooking breakfast cockatrice and eggs, with a some fresh sable berries, the group just called them hell berries.

"Need a pit here" Daedalus said, being a precog no one questioned him, the girls and boys dug the pit. "The battle will go smoothly, oh Tiffany one of your flute playing dolls over here."

"Hey what up with the flute playing dolls Tiff?" Gabby asked.

"They are charged to play the flutes which are dog whistles, the plan is to confused or anger them at the dolls instead of us" Tiffany informed the group.

"Oh Tiff darling that so sweet of you" Faith said smiling "And please wear the mask at battle!"

"A berm of dirt needs to be surrounding the stone monolith to protect are feet" Daedalus explained.

"The stone monolith had a winding hole carved thru it, smaller at one end and very large at the other" Faith showed the group "the larger end of the Ferryman's Horn fits snuggly into the smaller end of the hole of the monolith, allowing the complete horn to be assembled."

"Callista and Tristan you two on top of Monolith to rain down destruction on the hounds" Daedalus said calmly "Barely enough room for the two of you up there and you two be safe from the hounds."

Faith admired Daedalus, a natural general with precognitive abilities, future raids at Artemis Academy will become extremely hard fought and very likely some girls will lose some honor.

"Jacqui you be on your broom let loose your hex bolts at will, avoid shooting too close to shield wall" Daedalus continued to give order "Ok the remaining seven of us will comprise the shield wall."

"OK Faith time to blow the horn" Daedalus said solemnly.

With a mighty blow Faith blew into the horn and an unique sound of metal and stone resonated across the waters. Then the baying of the Hounds of Cerberus can be heard closing in on the group.

"OMA!" (Oh My Artemis) Callista shouted "They must be as heavy as horses!

What Callista saw is giant mastiffs with jet black coat of hair and three heads, four feet in height and weight of some 800 or more pounds. Callista shoot her arrow at the head only to see the arrow glanced off the hounds thick skull.

Jacqui from a birds eye view counted fifteen Hounds of Cerberus, with her mystic crystal glowing brightly red she let loose her hex blast at one of the hounds center head and heard it fall stunned to her bolt, but shaking off the blast fairly quickly "I can at best keep two of the hounds stunned and out of it."

"Nice to know Jacqui!" Faith shouted back as she thrust a spear with telekinetic might which seemed to only slow it down a bit.

Two of the hounds fell to the pit traps with spears which found the beating hearts of the hounds and killing them nearly instantly.

"Now Tiffany!" Daedalus commanded.

Tiffany then placed both of her hands to the ground and ripple of energy triggered all three dog whistle animated doll musicians. This distracted the hounds for just a moment leaving three more of the hounds dead as they fell to death on spears in the hidden pits before they could get to the dolls, another three hounds then tore apart the dolls. But by then they did their deadly deed.

Deadly rain of bullets fired by Tristan bringing death two of the three heads of one of the Hounds of Cerberus.

The Hounds of Cerberus crushing weight flung against the shield wall. Amelia, Daedalus, Gabrielle, and Sciron all sought to disable two more heads. The weight unbearable the shield wall began to waiver. The hot breath of hounds filled the air around the Faith and group.

Faith then knew at that very moment that if it just her and the five girls they be dog meat right now. Utooli knew, she knew what must happen if they all to get home, where was Utooli now?

Then a burst of pure esper telekinetic energy burst forth from just a few inches in front of the shield wall sending all the Hounds of Cerberus flying, giving the shield wall a much needed relief. Jumping over the shield wall landed Alexander now a full meter taller then before "Listen Hounds of Cerberus, I am Titan Born, I am Alexander son of Tityos!" Then Alexander's twin mighty blades fell down on one of the hounds killing all three heads.

Faith could feel that Alexander nearly depleted all his esperonic energy, and now relying on his titan heritage to win the day. One more hound came running and bit into Alexander's arm, side and leg, Faith could feel Alexander's pain, but he did not cry out in pain.

Tristan hair trigger shooting from the hip, killed two of the wounded hounds.

The hounds again rushed the wall while another attacked Alexander. One of the hounds mighty bites found Sciron and dragged him from the shield wall and another hound's bite was so vicious it bit Faith's left arm right off, she feeling her body going into shock. Sciron doing his best to avoid being biting in his neck and head.

Then Tiffany with a mighty blow cleaved of a hound's head into two.

Jacqui then stunned one of the two hounds on Alexander, amazed to find that Alexander not stunned by her blast but looking like he nearly passing out. Amelia, Gabrielle, Daedalus worked together to get another head to killed.

"Faith!" Callista could been seen streaming tears as seeing arm of her best friend being ripped off from shoulder socket, Callista took careful aim and her arrow shoot true and thru the eye socket of the wounded hound, bringing another down for the count.

Another chomping by a hound brought Alexander to his knees and passing out, and Sciron effectively a rag doll in the maws of another hound.

Two of the great Hounds of Cerberus busted thru the shield wall and was biting at Daedalus and Amelia. The hounds could not seem to bite Daedalus, but Amelia found herself now a rag doll. Tiffany, Gabrielle and Daedalus made efforts to kill another but found it hard to engage the one tossing Amelia around without harming her as well. Working together Tristan and Callista killed one that was not stunned that was mauling Alexander giving him some reprieve.

Jacqui responded by stunning the first of the hounds she stunned that was just about to engage the group.

The group feeling that turn of battle was favoring them only to hear the baying of more Hounds of Cerberus, this time smaller ones the pups, still they could not afford any more hounds then what they already engaged.

Then another hex bolt came from the sky and Professor Ebonheart joined the battle stunning both Amelia and the hound on her, and then that hound was picked up by two of its neck as fading out of invisibility was Utooli who smashed two of the heads into the center head knocking out that hound.

With a mighty roar came flying out of the sky Toby who landed on hound and bit its last good head, and then the hound shook as it died.

Daedalus, Gabrielle and Tiffany slashed with great might wounding another hound.

The succubi Elouise and Rosalia joined in by picking up two puppies.

In defiance the last hound bit Tiffany while the wound hurt she was strong enough to keep her limb from being ripped off. Rest of the group made good and dispatched the last of the adult hounds.

Jacqui placed Faith's removed arm to its socket and healed it back into place, and her father tended to Alexander. Amelia and Sciron glad the battle was over.

"Glad you could all make it" Faith said to Professor, Utooli and the Succubi.

"Would not miss it" Utooli "Was not going to see my favorite student of culinary arts die" she chuckled looking at Amelia.

"Well Hounds of Cerberus pups are an extra bonus, will take some for the school" Professor said.

"I want one" Gabrielle said as well.

"Absolutely" Utooli smiled.

"What will become of the puppies?" Tiffany asked.

"Well I will take two of them" Utooli stated "And I will give another to Evippe and Imbrus"

"Tartarus Academy will take four of them to be trained as guard dogs" Professor added "And here comes the Ferryman and his other ferrymen to give you passage home."

Faith Diary: After some quick hugs and kisses each boarded the ferryman's boat and paid two copper coins to be taken back home. First sign we where home was the sound of boats in the harbor blowing their horns and sound of airplane coming in for a landing at the airport. Alexander, Daedalus and Sciron looked on with amazement at the world of men. Once on shore and belongings with us, motorcycle and baby stallion we each glad. But what happen to Melissa, Sandi, Tandy and the witch Cerise? That another story, but right now we all just glad to be back home. Gabrielle and Sciron will need to go to that 'other' school for cryptids, rest of us return to Artemis Academy.

The Fin.

Hope everyone enjoyed the short story, but my word document showing it 37 pages long. I set out to hope to entertain at least 5 peeps, write a story where one can say well I really liked some of the new characters introduced, enjoy some of the humor, and hope that Dave himself may have checked it out to see where he and Giz have inspired me.

Thanks Insectoid guess you only one that liked it enough to give me a word of encouragement. I appreciate it Bro.

This short story is 37 pages long in word (sure be longer when I and my friend get it edited) and 19 parts.
Part 01: Volcanic Thunder: Was not sure if Gabby was Esper or Ninja ... but since she seemed to zip really fast figure that perhaps a way of saying "flash step"
Part 18: The Audience: Double D is reference to Devil Doll and Radiskull.
Part 06: Amelia's Surprise: The balding of Amelia was a honoring of Talia Castellano who died before her 14th Birthday, not because of Which cast members would look good bald? Thread. The bindi given to her by Utooli gives her insight to others moods.
Part 11: Scorba: Meet Evippe & Imbrus are cursed to create cutlery for all of their afterlife ... reason for 60,000 knives, forks and spoons :))
Part 16: The Hydra: I live in Arizona and Gila Monster has bead-like scales and the horny toad has horns, so they in part the inspiration for my description of the Hydra.
Part 19: The Hounds of Cerberus: Alexander, Daedalus, Tristan added at some points in story because I thought it be neat to have some more boys for Apollo Academy and for a more epic ending.

While my intent was to tell more about Tiffany and Jacqui, I found that I gravitated to Amelia and Gabby, lesser known of cast thus a bit more fun to speculate/conjecture what they like.

I been brainstorming some ideas for a new fan fiction story that has Abby Jo, Yvan, and Cyclops (from eerie cuties, name never given?). Plus creating a centaur character and mermaid for the fan fic as well. Nothing concrete from beginning to end of story at this time, so it still mostly in my brain.

Actually it's not that I don't like it, it's just that I don't want to read it before we have an official version of what happened. ;)
Canon first, then fanfic.

It now 7 months since the 6 girls disappeared, I felt personally to get fan fic written before the official story is given.
If any I have learned anything from Zebra Girl is that it can take a long time before an author relooks at main characters, in this case Joe England took 4½ years to update the lives of 4 main characters. So for 4½ years readership knew nothing about what happening to Jack, Crystal, Wally or Sam, as far as I knew the author just wrote them off.

Oh, I didn't mean you shouldn't have written it. Just that personnaly I usually prefer to read fanfics about side-stories or after I know what happens in canon. Because actually what I like in fanfictions is how things are differently handled. But for that I need something to compare it with. Which here we still don't have. :)

Figure to keep me from fuming at how slow stories resolved recently I figure another fan fiction but not sure of the final ending so just started writing and see where it goes from here.
Ladimir is the vampire from Kissing Booth that Tiffany said bit me to cause he is just that dreamy.
William is Billie the brunette male vampire turned female by the Orb.
Trying to just give names to un-named characters from the early stories, instead of creating oodles of new characters.
Only new characters that I really wanted to create from scratch is Guinevere and Valiant.
So no time given by me when and if a full story is made out of my muse to keep me busy.

Strange New Home
"Heya Beryl" Guinevere started her talking on her cell phone "It the bummer, Ugh, between special tutors and my parents watching over me and forcing me to learn, I am finally going to high school."

"Oh wow, so you just a grade ahead of us, we be seeing each other in another year" Beryl's voice came over the phone.

"Oh I wish that was true, but Nooooo, they have me going to a school in Canada!" Guinevere wanted to cry "Special incentive to study so I can come back home and not drag my feet wanting to learn."

"I feel for you, when you leaving?" Beryl asked.

"Now" Guinevere said as she moved a lock of her pink hair over her ear.

"Please turn off all electronic devices, flight 101 leaving from Miami to Montreal, estimated time 3 hours and 40 minutes, enjoy the flight" Came over the intercom.

"I have to go Beryl, I miss you so much already" Guinevere allowing herself just one tear "Will be staying with a family up there that taking me in, hugs and kisses!"

Guinevere looked at the brochure for her new high school ... Charybdis Heights. Charybdis Heights offers special accommodations for those with special needs. Are staff is highly trained and can handle the needs of your very special student! Guinevere chuckled, sounds like a school of retards.

When Guinevere arrived at Montreal Pierre Elliott Trudeau International Aeroport, she found herself greeted by André and Catherine Vallée, waving a sign with her name in Pink and big picture of her as well. *sigh* everyone sees me and my picture and everyone helping me find my new adopted family.

"Guinevere it be nice to have you with us for the next four years" Mr. Vallée smiled "The Mrs. and I not have guest in sometime and the house is big."

The Vallée's helped her with her luggage, well mostly Mrs. Vallée and she stated "If you needing anything more then this we will assist."

"I am sure my rich parents paying you two very well" Guinevere said "But they would not have sent me to stay with just humans, what type of cryptids are you?"

"We are selkie" Mrs. Vallée said comforting "We have a indoor bowling alley and indoor heated swimming pool, fairly large so if you doing good on grades you can have friends over for a party."

When Guinevere got into the home they put her luggage into the largest room in the home.

"What?, Why give me the master suite?" Guinevere said.

"Well the Mr. Vallée not as spry as he use to be and have a installed a private elevator for his use to have easy access to kitchen and garage" Mrs. Vallée explained "Chock it up to too many cigars when he younger, now uses oxygen all the time, so we not have much use for the other side of the house."

"Is your hair naturally pink?" Mr. Vallée asked.

"Yes, and dyes make me sick, so I am stuck having pink hair." Guinevere said "And very painful to get a haircut because my hair has nerves."

"Your parents made sure you had a week to get here before school starts so you can familiarize yourself how to get to school and settle in" Mrs. Vallée pleasant voice said sweetly "Oh the school has a dress code." Mrs. Vallée showed off the school uniform.

"It is a school for retards!" Guinevere looked at the outfit and shook her lovely pink mane.

Twilight Trail
Abby Jo enjoyed the early morning riding horse back and what special is that she not attending Artemis Academy today, she helping a friend instead go to his first day of high school at Charybdis Heights. She been given specific directions how to get her friend to that high school. She stayed mostly to trails and less traveled roads, eventually she found herself on Twilight Trail, and boy what a spooky looking trail.

"Hey, hey William look what we have here a beautiful drink" Ladimir a dark hair alpha male who looks are so dreamy women would ask him to bit them.

"Yeah! Do not worry honey we not hurt you we just thirsty, you not remember a thing" Williams chipped in with his brunette hair looking a bit like a Beatles reject.

Both the boys showing their fangs and that special gleam in their eyes as they strived to control Abby Jo's thoughts.

"Sorry boys, I not have time for funs and games" Abby Jo smiled.

William jumped at Abby Jo only to find the horse kicking him and flinging him backwards.

"Aaaa that hurt!" William interjected "Going to have horse shoe bruises on my chest for the next week."
With speed that are vampires are known for Ladimir grabbed Abby Jo and proceeded to bite her and partake of her blood.

"Do not drink too deeply otherwise you be sick for a few days" Abby Jo said as she enjoyed the experience.

"What the?" Ladimir said as recoiled from biting Abby Jo, then proceeded to puke up on the trail.

"I am cryptid you idiots" Abby Jo stated rather proudly "I just not attend Charybdis Heights, but instead attend the school for slayers."

"What kind of cryptid are you?" William asked rubbing his very sore chest.

"I am a valkyrie" Abby Jo just smiled "I can use the company as we head to Charybdis Heights, the principle is expecting me and my friend."

A bit of time past as they traveled along the Twilight Trail, making some light conversation. Abby Jo explained that her family take care of cryptids that not able to fit into society at the farm.

"You not partake much of my blood so you should be fine by lunch time" Abby Jo chuckled, then swiped the card on the back gate and proceeded onto the grounds of Charybdis Heights "Perhaps one of you strong vampires want to help me with my friend, his magical automaton head is hard to remove."

William and Abby Jo struggled to removed the magical horse head. Finally with an effort that sent both Abby Jo and William flying backwards, it revealed a full human torso of young centaur.

"Wow, you are the first Centaur at school" William said "What your name?"

"My name is Valiant" Valiant said "And if you try anything like that with Abby Jo again, you will wish I staked you instead."

"See you inside Valiant" Abby Jo said "I am going to the girl's shower room to change into my valkyrie ceremonial armor, the principle wanted me to talk to a few classes about valkyries."

"Can we help you change" William asked directing his question to Abby Jo.

"Once I have a few discrete pieces on first, sure thing!" Abby Jo said as she winked "Some of the other pieces can be tricky to put on."

With that Abby Jo, Ladimir and William left the stable area. Jeffrey the grounds keep came to the stable to assist Valiant with his special school outfit, rubber 'shoes' so as to not scar up the floor of the school. Then proceeded to find all his classes and special freight elevator that take him to second and third floor of school. Today was going to be an interesting day, since he only been home schooled up to this point of his education.
