Introduction
The Ancient History of the Olympians.
Long throughout Greek Mythology, the Olympian Gods are most known for their constant meddling with humanity. However in time the Gods realized the error of their ways, they had nearly brought destruction to Earth numerous times, deciding finally to put an end to it. They cut off all ties with humanity, they stayed in their respected domains and led humans go their own way. History as we know it continued normally, however with the birth of Rome and the Roman Gods, a terrible reality was created. The power of human worship was great, through worship alone they unknowingly created an alternate reality. One where the Roman Gods had always ruled, these Roman Gods sought to take all the evil of the world and trap it back in Pandora's Box. They succeeded in capturing all the evil, but through folly they unwillingly absorbed it. All the evil and chaos overwhelmed the hearts of the Roman Gods, in their hatred and malice they brought destruction to humanity. Even going as far as to release their own Titans to create a dark alliance.
In the original Universe ruled by the Olympians, things went on peacefully, overtime they fell into luxury. No longer needing to control Earth, lightning raged on its own and love was born from free will. The Earth was dawning the modern age, when the great catastrophe struck Olympus. The Gods were unprepared, the Roman Gods, in need of a new universe, traveled to the ones of the Olympians. With the combined strength of the Roman Gods and their powerful Titan allies, Olympus was destroyed, the Gods, killed in battle. One thing alone saved the Gods, whose souls could escape the carnage. They merged with the souls of newly born infants, the souls of the infants and the Gods merged. Creating a strong unity, both souls joined, yet completely separated. These infants, in time, would rise to become both the Champions of the Olympians, yet also their very essence.
The Champions.
Infants were chosen at random, the only way the God's souls could merge with them is when their human soul entered their bodies. These Champions would grow to have bits and pieces of their Olympians personality. Physical changes as well would take place, all of them would grow to be handsome/beautiful, with bronze skin and powerful bodies/minds. It is completely your choice to decide how your Champions life goes, it is for you to decide how much the God inside of them rubs off on them. Do know that they do not know their true identity, they will certainly know they are different however. An example would be, the Champion of Zeus will accidentally cause raging storms when he is angered or upset. Over time their powers will develop, but their bodies are still human. Though they may be able to punch through walls and think/comprehend faster then any human. Their bodies can not handle the complete power of a God, if abused to much, their body will start to crack and eventually be destroyed by the raw power of divinity. For now they will be unable to communicate with the God inside of them, only in moments of extreme stress and need, will they journey into their mind to meet the Olympian resting inside of them. (The first time this happens will take place in the RP for every RPer's character.) These humans will all be born on the same day, when they are all 18, just graduating high school. The threat will make itself known, only then will they discover their destiny.
The Quest.
Over the 18 years the Olympians are living in their host, the Roman Gods will sit upon Olympus. Finally they will turn their fierce gazes to Earth, attacking it with the Titans to to take it over. On the first day of the invasion, all the Champions will notice their power sky rocket. They will question who they are and what is truly happening to them. The ally of the Olympians(a greek figure who will be decided once I see which Gods are taken.) will find the Champions and unite them. In hopes of reclaiming the world and Olympus, and saving their Universe from the wrath of the Roman Gods. This will not take place in high school, it only will int he beginning but afterwards, you'll be lucky if you don't see a school in ruins.

"Demeter's champion...Explains why these plants are fawning over you..." The plants, that's it. That's the reason for the over abundance of their garden and any plant she comes across with. "Th- thanks." Demi shyly muttered and as she was about to ask on who Demeter is the girl spoke up, addressing everyone as some of them fought and argued. She tried to put some sense in their heads and Demi found herself nodding. The girl was right.
~~~~~~~~~
Cor continued to rub her painful hip, scowling at Luke when a guy intercepted her ex and demanded that he stay calm and another guy (who Cor thinks was cute) offered her a hand but put up an argument. She was actually surprised that the guy took the time to help her, she accepted his hand and let him pull her up. She winced at the pain she felt. His hand felt warm against her's and at the same time it sent a series of bolts up her skin. Cor hasn't felt this way since she met Luke. She looked at him, he was dangerously quiet. His brows met and his fists clenched as he stared at the white haired guy.
Cor then dropped the boy's hand and rushed towards Luke and held her hands against his broad chest and, "Babe calm down," She then faced the others and placed a fake smile on her face and said, "I'm okay, honest! Luke didn't mean it." She nodded, doing her best to convince them. She then offered her hand for a shake to everyone, "I think I need to introduce ourselves. I'm Cordelia, but call me Cor. And this, this is Luke. My-"
And as she was going to face Luke, she saw that he had turned his back against all of them and walked towards Ganymede and held his toga in his fists. "Get us the fuck out of here. Do you hear me pretty boy?" He's words were few but they were loud and clear. Cor had to rush towards Luke once again, pulling him away from the Greek.
Luke had let Cor pull him away, but he pointed at Ganymede like he was threatening him. The Greek smoothened his toga and shook his head with a frown to match.
Cam watched with thinly veiled amusement as she walked past him and toward another girl. He contemplated her words but found himself a little disappointed. Like everyone else, she didn't have any basis as to why she believed everything Ganymede had said. No one seemed to. All they were relying on was their gut instincts. A part of him wanted to believe their words; yet, the rational part of his mind wouldn't budge. There was no historical evidence to support this. Could they really trust a suspicious boy in Greek attire? He had so absorbed in his thoughts that he was caught off guard - for the second time today - when one of the guys stepped back. Cam noted that it was the more reasonable of the two and his eyes looked toward the other warily. That guy was just itching for a fight and, if the white haired male wasn't going to give it to him, he wasn't about to volunteer. He could take on the screaming kid with horns for all he cared.
Stick together? What was he thinking? This isn't some group activity we signed up for. The previous hints of amusement vanished from his face as soon as it had appeared. "I hate to break it to you, man. But I'm not really a team player. No offense or anything," he stated as he pinched the bridge of his nose. Cam didn't play well with others - never had and never well. Even when he was surrounded by longtime friends, he was used to looking out for himself. Every man for himself was a motto that he lived by. In a sense, it explained a lot about why he never stuck around one place or one person often. Cam preferred to do things his way and was always brainstorming the easiest ways out. After all, there was always two ways to approach and solve a situation - at the very least. When Ganymede offered to provide each of them with clothes, Cam glanced down at his own. They were tattered and torn in certain areas, with pieces of cloth stained in a murky red color. He almost took the god up on his offer - until he saw the alternative to the clothes he was wearing now. While the toga looked comfy and inviting, Cam didn't want to assert the team idea any more than it already had been asserted. Matching clothes would just reinforce the idea that they were all in this together and, last time he checked, they were not on the set of High School Musical.
"I'll pass. Maybe later," he mumbled in response. Right now, he would much rather be caught in his birthday suit. Feeling a pull on the arm, Cam's attention shifted to the fallen girl. A lighthearted smile spread on his lips as she had accepted his offer to help her out. While his appearance was one of ease, he was thoroughly confused. It was strange. He had held hands with girls before and he had anticipated the heat from their bodies but he hadn't anticipated the almost electric shock that spread from his fingertips to the entire length of his arm. Cam was just about to ask if she felt the sudden sensation as well when he noticed her wince ever so slightly. In fact, if he hadn't been so focused on her right now then he was sure he would have missed it. "Are you ok?"
Cam was just about to check for any injuries or bruising when she dropped their joined hands and ran to the other boy. By her reaction and close proximity to the guy, Cam deduced that they knew one another quite well. He would even jump to conclusions and say that they were in a relationship. As she introduced them and extended her hand out for anyone to shake, Cam watched silently as the guy - Luke, apparently - charged toward Ganymede and threatened him. His recent composure gave way as he let out a low chuckle. He had anticipated an outburst from the guy and he had finally done it. Cam only wished that Ganymede reacted in a more comical manner.
Rubbing the back of his neck when he realized he had attracted more attention to himself, he shrugged. "Since we're doing introductions, I'm Cam." He might as well give them his name. He might not have had any intention of working together with these people but he didn't feel like being addressed as that guy or anything like that for however long they would be stuck with each other.
To Ganymede's offer of new clothes Abby thought about it. "Il take a set of new clothes...I'm still in my pjs so Id rather be actually dressed. Ganymede nodded and before she could blink she felt new warmer clothes on her. The material was strange but comforting and she was completely covered but it felt easy to move in. "Thank yo-" The man named Luke rushed in and Abby frowned.
Luke seemed like the type of person she would not get along with. Mostly because he seemed to constantly be trying to injure someone. She stepped in front of him and frowned. "umm... Luke??? This might be a weird suggestion... But I don't think beating up the greek guy to a pulp is going to convince him any faster of returning you..." She peeped. "J-Just an opinion..." She found herself nudging Demeter's champion behind herself and Andras mostly just because she was worries Luke might be the type of man who attacked the most insecure or the most shy and after Abby that seemed to be Demeter's champion and well... It was a strange motherly type of instinct that kicked in what could she say???

Everyone else seemed to have an opinion about their situation, except her. Like what Luke (introduced by the girl Cor) wished for, Demi just wanted to pinch herself and awaken to what seems to be a dream. But she knew she was awake and conscious and everything that has been happening to her was real. Really really real.
And just as Luke calmed down, some introduced their selves. She tried to remember their names, as she felt Abby nudging her.
~~~~~~~~
Cor almost chuckled as she saw what the Greek boy had given two of them to change into. It was like Fairy God Mother boopity booping her wand and Cinderella emerged in a gown. "Yo, what is that? I mean just because we are supposedly champions doesn't mean we have to look like one right?" She roamed her gaze waiting for everyone to agree with her when Ganymede spoke up.
"Eris, not everything is a joke. These toga represent your powers and a part of you. It would also protect you from mild forms of magic that would come from unknown powers. It can save your life." Ganymede spoke, obviously pissed at the two of them. Cor shrugged and looked at Luke who was still frowning at the turn of events.
Just then the girl who introduced herself as Abby had shared a piece of her opinion about what Luke had done. She doesn't normally like it when people defy her man but she was right. Luke had went out of line and there was has to be a reason for all of this.
Her thoughts were then interrupted as the guy who had earlier offered his hand for help spoke up and introduced herself. She then found herself smiling the way she smiles when Luke is around.

"We are you servants..." One voice whispered.
"Huh?!" Demi was startled, it was like the owner of the voice was very near. She then noticed a grape vine dangling and was actually swaying. It crawled nearer and wrapped itself around her hand and moved it. As if the plant was shaking her hand.
"The God of harvest has come back!" Then tiny voices were heard like they belonged to little children as the wild flowers moved even if the wind did not blow.
No! That's impossible! Demi thought to herself as more trees, shrubs and plants moved in unison. It isn't Goddess, we are here to protect you. An old voice that sounded like it was from an elderly woman then entered her mind. We can hear your thoughts as you hear ours. She gave the old oak tree a double glance, wondering if she was imagining things but she kind of saw a woman's soft old face smiled at her and disappeared.
"This- this is getting really creepy," She looked at Abby with wide eyes and amazement.
Ganymede’s statements rang loud and clear in Cam’s mind; however, it was that line that made his blood run cold. At eighteen years old, he’d caused enough destruction to last a lifetime but this was another level of destruction entirely. It was the type of unhindered chaos that was permanent. It wouldn’t be restored with copious amounts of money or medical procedures. Cam pictured his body failing him and grimaced. His body was very much fatigued – just as Ganymede said it would be – but he didn’t think his newfound abilities could cause so much harm. He was so lost in his thoughts that he failed to notice the golden goblet extended out to him. The Greek god looked at him expectantly and Cam robotically reached for it. He took it into his hands and stared at the liquid within. Cam could only swish the contents of the cup; not entirely sure how to proceed.
Glancing at Zeus’ champion – Andras – he watched with unabashed curiosity as he took a hearty gulp out of his own golden goblet. The sudden gasp that Andras emitted was nearly enough evidence that Cam needed to toss the goblet aside; however, he froze when he noticed the small bolts of lightning surrounding the white haired male’s muscular frame. Cam had been so focused on the electricity surging around Andras’ body that he almost missed his joyful exclamation. To his right, the once screaming teen asked for a goblet and toga and he looked on as Ganymede complied with his orders. After Andras’ sudden display of power, he didn’t think he could have registered anymore surprises. He was wrong. Pan’s champion – Peter, he believed – suddenly sprouted goat legs in the place of human legs and sported horns as well! Cam found himself unintentionally shrinking away until Peter spoke. His words and the underlying sadness behind them reminded him of his mother and he unconsciously reached out and placed his hand on the guy’s shoulder. “I’m sorry,” Cam said. He could think of nothing else to say to comfort him. He understood loss but it was nothing close to what Peter seemed to be enduring. He slightly regretted thinking ill of him earlier but, as he was Cam Messenger, the feeling subsided as quickly as it came.
He continued to watch the others proceed to drink their own goblets. He was careful to analyze their reactions to the drinks. They proved mostly positive – each of the teens insisting that it was good. Cam wondered if it held some sort of drug. Ganymede had told them that the liquid substance was ambrosia but he still felt uneasy when he glanced at the goblet. Eventually, his body’s fatigue won out the internal struggle and he raised his glass in a mocking manner. “Cheers!” Cam said to no one in particular as he drank the contents. He suddenly felt an immense surge of power wash over him – filling his body and making him feel as if he was floating on air. Cam felt almost as if he could run a marathon now; which was a sharp contrast to how he had forced his body to stand earlier.
“All right. Even I’ve got to admit that this is good.”
"Come on, you'll feel better," She smiled at him, still clinging.
"Look Cor, I will have none of this," Luke gave an exhausted sigh and shook his head. "I should bring you home."
"No! Who said I wanted to go home?" She quickly shook her head and gave him a hurt look. "The only place I consider home is beside you Luke."
"Cor- please," He let his hand brush his curly hair in frustration.
"Just drink this. I promise I'd be good. Just drink it," She let the goblet come closer to his lips and Luke could only resist the girl so much.
As soon as the golden liquid caressed his throat, Luke felt great. He quickly roamed his gaze, wanting to find a monster and engage in battle. The urge to punch someone and wring their neck was so intense that his veins are almost popping off of his body. He was sweating like a mad man and his eyes were almost blood shot as the energy pulsated through him. "Yo! Ganymede! We should be kicking some ass now! Why should we wait for them to attack when we can surprise them?!"
"Come on! Everyone! Let's do this! Let's give those bastards a fight!" He shouted, he did taunts like a wrestler as he noticed that his muscles almost ripped his shirt. They were bulging and bigger than ever. But there was something missing. His hands felt light, as if he was used to carrying something heavy and powerful.
"Yo! Golden boy! Are you not telling us something?" He raised his left eyebrow in suspicion at Ganymede.
"Hey babe, calm down." Cor rushed next to him as she caressed his back.
"Golden boy isn't telling us something! I know he is leaving some info behind," He then rushed towards Ganymede as the Greek walked backwards.
"Enough!" Ganymede called.
"I call the shots when it's enough!" Luke barked at him angrily, clenching his jaw.
"If it's your weapons you seek, then I shall give it to you." He spoke with hatred towards Luke and Cor. "But-"
"But what asshole?!" It was Cordelia who spoke this time.
"You will only earn them when you are done training," He spoke.
"Training? What the fuck is this? The army? I thought we are incarnations of Gods?!" Cor held Luke back as his anger rose.
"It is a war and you are Olympus' army."

"So Ganymede who are we fighting at the end of this training?" She had her arms crossed as she walked closer to him.
Abby instantly pushed Demi out of the way and dodged. "HEY I wasn't ready for that one." She held the spear tight shifted it in her grasp until it got comfortable and stared at the Minotaur shift and turn to look at her. At first Abby wasn't sure how to destroy the Minotaur but her mind flashed as a strategy formed in her mind and her eyes brightened with wisdom and a smirk displayed on her face. She stayed perfectly still until the minotaur rushed her. Then she waited. She waited until she could feel it's breath on her before she jumped to the side grabbed onto the thick fur of the Minotaur and slung herself onto its back with mathematical precision.
Without a second to spare she use'd the spear to pull back on horns making the Minotaur stop in front of Demi. "Hey wanna ride?" She dug her heels into the side of the minotaur having it under her control because she knew right where to apply pressure in order to succumb it. She pressed down on its side muscle causing it to move forward then she leaned down and lifted Demi on for a ride before tapping on the muscle below the other one causing the Minotaur to jolt forward.
Soon she had the minotaur doing circles like a show pony. She made it do a circle around Ganymede before making it stop and staring down at the man from her perch on the beast. "These are no where CLOSE to the same as the things in the city... Are they?" Ganymede smiled at her. "Always the observant one... It's to be expected you would see the difference." Ganymede nodded quietly. "There not the same much smaller, weaker, more tame perfect for start off for you..." Ganymede nodded to the Minotaur Abby was ridding around on a show pony. "That's why you tamed it so quickly... A minotaur in the city would take allot more taming not to mention they would be harder to get on." Abby nodded understandingly before ridding around and around Andras.
