Chapter 3: A Mysterious Visitor
Just as Serafina muttered about how unfair it was that her sister, Selina, didn’t have to go through all the drama she was going through now. She heard footsteps coming toward Helen and her. Helen calmly took her weapons (the bow and arrow), and aimed at where the sound was coming from, she let go of the arrow and let it fly toward the place that the sound was coming from. Just when the arrow was about to go into the shadows of the trees, Serafina saw a knight with heavy armor but movements as fast as a cheetah, jump over the arrow! “What...how...Impossible!!!” Helen stuttered as she reached for another arrow from her quiver. “Stop Helen, it’s me Sterling! You called, remember?” Sterling turned to face Serafina, “Serafina, come, you’ll need a bit of magic, Athena and Selene will help, I’m not so sure about Artemis but if she doesn't know yet, she surely will help you” Sterling said. “Thank god that you’re here Sterling! You know what you need to do, take Serafina to Planet E13, she’ll find her brother, Conner, there and remember to keep her disguised!” Helen notified Sterling as Sterling rolled her eyes and muttered “You are like my mother, always reminding me everything like I can’t even remember to go to the bathroom.” “I heard that!” Helen said as she glared at Sterling. Serafina frowned at the idea of going to Planet E13 “No! I’m not leaving you, this is my home!” Serafina pleaded. “Please Serafina you can’t stay here, I’m doing this for your own good! If Artemis finds out you’ll be dead! I’m sorry for this Serafina. But remember, when you get to Planet E13, get the keys, destroy Villain World, Athena will explain to you.” Helen said and nodded to Sterling. Sterling dragged Serafina and said “So, not so bad huh?” “I DON’T WANT TO……” Serafina yelled “OH MY GOD! What happened to you?” Sterling said surprised by how different Serafina looked. Serafina looked at her skin “Oh no! I am changing, I need to calm down or else Artemis will know!” Serafina cried Sterling ran to the nearest shrine to Athena and said “Oh great Athena, goddess of wisdom, please help Serafina look like a human and protect her from the wrath of Artemis.” Athena appeared in a armor holding her shield with the head of Medusa on the center. “Lady Athena!” Sterling gasped and bowed to Athena, Serafina did the same. “Rise my brave warriors, take this vial. When you lose control of your calmness, use the potion to calm yourself down. But beware!” Athena lowered her voice, “Don’t let Artemis know about Helen’s husband, unless you want to die by doing suicide and go to the Fields of Punishment after your spirit drifts to the Underworld. I’m on your mother’s side.” “How can we trust you, how do we know you are not Artemis in disguise?” Serafina asked eyeing Athena carefully. “I don’t blame you for that, if Artemis was kind of thing I would have done the same.” Athena said calmly. “So you’re one of us?” Sterling asked, looking around nervously like she was chased by a ghost, she lowered her voice “Are you a rebel like us?” “Yes, my sister, Artemis, and I had a little argument lately, so I’m not really into helping, or talking to her. I’ll be glad to do something to made her mad, but I know that Artemis will one day find out about your little secret. But I already hidden Helen in her planet, so don’t worry.” Athena said. " Good. So can you help us?" Sterling asked. " Of course." Athena said.
