TRIGGER WARNINGS: The separation of body parts.

Sasha's POV:

We land in Thebes. Hercules, "Is this all one town?" Phil, "One town with a million troubles. The one and only Thebes. The Big Olive itself."

The way that Phil describes Thebes reminds me of New York,with NYC being, 'The Big Apple.' Even looking at Thebes reminds me of New York.

Phil, "If you can make it here,you can make it anywhere" That saying is the same in either New York or LA. As we walk across the street,I say to Hercules, "Stay by me and Phil,kid. The city,especially this one,is a dangerous place."

Phil, "Just stare at the sidewalk. Don't make eye contact. The people here are nuts" I ask, "Why?" Phil, "Because they live in a city of turmoil. Trust me,kid. You are going to be just what the doctor ordered."

We find a group of people and that is when Hercules steps up, "Excuse me. It seems that what you folks need is a hero." A man asks, "Yeah? And who are you?"

Hercules, "My name is Hercules and I happen to be a hero" All they do is laugh at Hercules, "He is just another chariot chaser" Phil, "Don't you pea brains get it? This kid is a genuine article!"

They all stop, "Isn't that the goat man that trained Archilles" Phil got mad, "Watch it,pal!" The man, "Yeah,you're right. Nice job on those heels! You missed a spot!"

They laugh as Phil beats him up and I am able to pull Phil off of him. Woman, "Young man,we need a professional hero,not an amateur." Hercules feels pretty bad after that, "How am I supposed to prove myself a hero,if nobody will give me a chance?"

I hug him, "You'll get your chance,Herc" Phil, "You just need some kind of catastrophe or disaster." It is if on cue, that Meg shows up and asks for help.

Something about these boys that were playing in the gorge, and after a terrible rockslide,they are now trapped underneath a giant bolder-like rock.

This is Hercules' chance as he lifts the rock and he frees the kids,but when he does that,he accidentally releases a monster. This purple monster has a lock neck with four pairs of feet and big sharp teeth along with ugly orange eyes.

They call this monster, 'Hydra.' The monster swallows Hercules and we all think that he is gone until Hercules cuts his way out of his throat and we all think that the Hydra is dead.

The monster grows itself back to life, but now he has multiple heads. Hercules punches a rock and the monster dies after being crumbled to death by giant boulders.

Hercules has defeated the Hydra, but that is just the beginning of Hercules' fame.
