My brother and sister invited me to live on Olympus. I went home and said goodbye to my mother and I flashed just like my siblings. Hera, or I would rather say evil step mother have mutual hatred for us.

"Ugh. Zeus, how many more kids do you have?" Hera asked.

"Evil step mother, ever heard of the term, the more the merrier?" I said sarcastically.

"Evil step mother?!" Hera screamed.

"Yeah, it suits you," Apollo piped in. We fist bumped as we saw Hera steaming.

"Now, boys. I praise your efforts for making Hera angry. But that wasn't very nice, was it?" Hestia said kindly.

"Yes, Aunt Hestia," me and Apollo both said at the same time.

"Now go apologize."

"Sorry Lady Hera," we both said then stuck our tongue at her.

"Boys, am I right?" Artemis said, shaking her head.

"Hey!  What are you saying lil' sis?" Apollo whined.

"I am not your little sis!  I am older than you," Artemis screamed.

"Whatever you say, lil' sis," retorted Apollo grinning.

"Now, now.  Apollo, to be fair, it was quite cramped in the womb when I remembered Artemis get out first.  It was quite sad you know, I'm still stuck with an annoying person.  The real question is, am I older than you?" I said, thoughtfully.  Earning chuckles.

"Hmph!  You are supposed to be on my side.  Anyways, is there anything to do?" Apollo asked.

"We could have a party. We never got a chance to celebrate when we found Perseus and when he saved Artemis," Dionysus said.

"Best idea I have ever heard from you brother," Apollo grinned, "Tonight, at the beach. Uncle Poseidon, can you let the waves loose?"

Poseidon shrugged, probably meaning yea.

"Alright, it is decided. Everyone should wear an appropriate attire for tonight's event!" Zeus boomed. Looking visibly excited for tonight.
