So, my faithful cats, it seems that the only story I know that has been suggested by my Mythology Friend, SunsetAvenue101 is about the Greek hero, Achilles. Here goes...I don't know much about that guy.

By the way, this is my book, so I will put my own version that I've read, so you don't go complaining that I've got it all wrong and you've heard it a different way. Get over it and suck it up. Sorry if I sound bossy and Persassy, but still. I'm a first-time author, and I use my time at recess to write stories. So, yeah. CATS

   This is the life of Achilles, one of the greatest heroes of all time.

   When Achilles was a small boy, his mother gave him her blessing and held him by the heel and dipped him into one of the five most lethal rivers of the Underworld, or Erebus, the River Styx. If you swear upon that particular river, you could die. If you touch it, your blood will boil and your skin will dry into sand. But, it you jump in absolutely prepared, something special would happen.

   You can first prepare by getting your mother's blessing, or permission to do this. It's actually a very, very dangerous thing to do if you do it wrong. If you've never known your mother, or even met her, go to the Underworld and search. I recommend Elysium first, then the fields of Punishment, then the fields of Asphodel, because that would totally take forever. If you don't find her, you've wasted half your life and she probably alive, or a Hunter of Artemis. Who knows. And that was rhetorical. Yes, Hades knows, and Apollo, and maybe Hermes, and maybe your dad, most likely Zeus--no, scratch that, Zeus doesn't care, and maybe even that other tomcat named Frank with the cool shirt eating blue food and playing Roblox and taking a selfie. As I've said before, who knows.

So, when you get her blessing, you have to gather up your courage to go to the Underworld.

   Run.

   It's okay. We all do it. You could die at any second. But, if you really want to die from one hit that anybody could know...

Well, see you never.

If you ARE smart and you WILL NOT TELL ANYONE YOUR WEAK SPOT (except you most trusted BFF) go on down to the Underworld/Erebus, where you will find the Styx.

Step one: This is your last chance to run. Consider it and follow your gut, not that little greedy voice in your head.

Step two: Run. If you do not listen to this warning, you get a whole lot of pain, a possible death, slight invincibility, and a cookie. 🍪

Step three: There should not be a step three, but if you skipped step two and grabbed that cookie, well, then, you gotta prepare yourself. Think of it like bungee jumping. You have to tie the cord of your mortal life (mentally, of course) to what you want to be your weak spot.

Step four: Don't try walking into the water bravely and heroically. It won't work. The second you step into the water, you will feel a whole lot of pain that you won't even feel yourself dying. If you have a strong will, though, you gotta swim to the surface, fast. Don't leave your butt in the water because you're too weak. In this case, you better bring a friend with you, 'cause THEY can be that trustworthy friend you drag your butt outta the River of Death.

Step five: Do ya wanna be safe again? Go to San Francisco, California to find a little waterway called Tiber River. Just swim in it and--ta da, you're vulnerable again!! Happy. 😐

So, the dude Achilles fought in the Trojan war, killed the youngest daughter of Otrera, the first Amazon, named Penethesilia, then fell in love with her.

After she died.

Pretty sure he didn't hold a "Good Riddance" party, even though she was on the opposing side.

Well, then he was on a rampage. He was angry. He was distracted. He was shot in the heel.

Haha, well, I'd bet someone actually did throw a "Good Riddance" party for him.

THIS IS WHAT ADHD IS FOR!!

Well, as I've said before...See ya never, Achilles.

So, my loyal grasshoppers, I kinda need reviews. I'm really sorry I didn't update. I'm a REALLY terrible author. I'm just saying that I've been SO caught up with you guys' stories that I barely have time for my own. Either that or school. *shudders* Oh, well. Anyways, please send in more requests for Ancient Greek/Roman/Egyptian/Norse people you want me to tell you about for y'all's history reports. BAIIIIIIII
