Phoenix Drop High

~Chapter 11~

•Muslim•
We stood next to the Grey and white knights by the doors of the infirmary, They stood on either side of us waiting. I stuck close to John while Will and Eunice stood on the other side of him. Katherin was for some reason standing on the other side of the white knight, restrained. I crossed my eyebrows and turned to John.
"What's wrong with Katherin? Why are they so defensive with her?" I whispered seeing John shrug and sigh.
"I don't know but whoever we face, I'm expecting answers," he muttered. Then all of the sudden, we heard the other's voices. We turned seeing everyone else looking around. Eunice then ran towards Paisley and hugged her. Kirk, Rencie and Jayden walked over towards me and Will. Praise was swearing at the black knight who kept her restrained.
"Hey! Why is she restrained?!" I yelled seeing the Whitw knight draw his sword and hold it up to my neck.
"Muslim, dont push it," Kirk mumbled, I growled seeing the white knight put his sword down.
"Take these two ahead first," the Grey knight called out seeing the black knight then take Katherin along with Praise.
"Hey? Where are you taking them?" Eunice called out until Will held her back.

•Eunice•
I want to know why both Katherin and Praise are restrained. What is wrong with them?
"We are only doing what we're told to do," the Grey knight beside me said. I looked at him.
"And who told you to keep them restrained, didn't Apollo tell you to take them off their chains?" I asked but the knight with the red cape walked towards me. He stood there for a moment until he took his helmet off. As soon as I took a look at his face, he looked as if he was in his young 30's, he had brown hair and a clean face. He had hazel brown eyes and a scar over his left eye. As soon as he held his helmet in front of him, he let it disappear in front of him. I kept quiet waiting for an answer.
"As Apollo said, we will answer your questions soon. For now, we need you to cooperate and bare with us, we won't harm you, the closest thing we can do is restrain you on these grounds," the man said.
"At least tell us who you are," I said trying to get something out of them. The man sighed and looked at the knights, he nodded at them. He then looked back at me.
"My name is Yvon, I'm a general of Zeus' army," Yvon spoke making my eyes widen a bit, the rest of the knight took their helmets off. The white knight had blonde hair with bright blue eyes and he looked younger than Yvon.
"This is my second in command, Cedric," Yvon said seeing him bow his head.
"The knight that took your friends Praise and Katherin was Destrian, and he is Maximus," Yvon said pointing to the Grey knight beside Muslim, he had black long hair with dark brown eyes, he had a small black beard as well as a small mustache, he looked a bit older than Yvon.
"Wait wait wait, Zeus' army?" Rencie asked seeing Yvon look at him.
"Zeus? The God Zeus? Hold on-" Paisley asked hearing Cedric chuckle.
"You think he's make-believe?" Cedric said.
"We heard stories but people say he and the gods aren't real," Rencie said but then John responded.
"They're real alright, we already met Hermes and Apollo themselves," John stated, I nodded. They all gasped.
"What?!?" They all said in unison. Will stepped in.
"Eunice was the first to talk to Apollo and she was the first to tell us it was them," Will said, then Paisley added.
"I knew that guy looked familiar!" Paisley said meanings he probably met Hermes to fetch them.
"Wait aren't they supposed to be bigger than us?" Rencie asked but Yvon stepped in.
"They have the choice to shrink and grow whenever they please, Apollo and Hermes didn't want to overwhelm you all by their size," Yvon said.
"Oh my god are we in Mount Oylmpus?!" Muslim shouted sounded a bit excited, but then Jayden added.
"There is no way," he said, I shrugged.
"We are, reason I know is because I already visited this place when I nearly died remember?" I mentioned the time when we fought with Hades. They all looked at me.
"Was that the reason why we're all here?" Paisley asked, thinking about it made me question if that dream had a connection with why we are here.
"Follow us to the Pantheon, the gods have something to say," Yvon said.

•Rencie•
We followed Yvon down a path towards a large building, the front had pillars lined up in front of it along with a large pair of doors. As soon as we walked up the stairs to face the doors, they opened seeing a beam of light escape from inside. Yvon, Cedric and Maximus stood aside and let us walk in. Once we did, we walked past many pillars until we reached the center of the building inside, we stopped right in the middle of the large room and there sat the gods, in their gigantic throwns with Zeus sitting in the largest one in front of us. I gulped and as soon as we stopped right in the center, the doors shut behind us. We all knelt down and bowed.
"Rise," said Zeus himself. We stood up and looked at the gods around us. Yvon, Cedric and Maximus stood around us.
"These are the kids that were disrupting the peace in the Mystic world?" Queen Hera called out. We all looked at the Queen a bit confused.
"Well I wouldn't say disrupt," Apollo added but then Athena stepped in.
"They were having a simple feud that could have been resolved peacefully," Athena added. Hera then glared at all of us.
"And if they fought over such nonsense, they shouldn't be permitted to roam the Mystic world. They're a danger to that realm, their noise might attract monsters from other realms," Hera stated but Zeus only kept still, looking at Kirk, John and Will. I crossed my eyebrows.
