I've noticed that One's god parent is Auster. I meant was Notus. They are the same, both gods of the South Wind but Notus is the Greek form and Auster is the Roman one.

O o p s.

I changed it, cuz obviously this is Greek myths.

Anyyywaayyyss~ we're gonna meet the other kids now! Yipee!

.: Still Seven's P.o.V. :.
.: Third Person-ish :.

Mono was now dragged underneath, the kid turned to an otter was trying to break free from the old lady that held him down. Six and Five (plus Apples) looked over to the edge of the crate as Mono was slowly geting out of sight.

Two turned to Seven, "Seven! Go save him!"

"Me?!"

"Yes! Hurry before Mono drowns!" She said and Seven looked down on the water, "I can't see him already!" Five said and Apples nodded. Seven took a deep breath and dived in.

It was dark underneath, but with his sword he could see a big old thin figure dragging Otter Mono down a few feet below him. Of course an otter could be able to hold their breath, but there was a limit and it seemed like Mono was losing all his breath.

He held on the hilt of his sword and quickly swam down, it was like the water was going with his wishes. The Granny looked up to him and Seven slashed her wrist, the Granny yelped and let go.

Otter Mono was trying to reach the surface now, but his eyes closed and he lost the last bit of his breath and now started drowning. Seven picked him up and urged the water shoot him up to the closest object on the surface.

He landed on the crate and place Mono down, Six crouched down and pressed Mono's chest repeatedly, "Mono?! Mono, c'mon!" She started doing a CPR to an otter. Apples hopped down and punched Mono's chest, "APPLES!" He shouted.

Mono quickly turned back to a human and lifted his paperbag, turning to the side as he coughed out the water from his mouth, "Why does that karpos have to punch me?" He gasped while lowering his paperbag. Seven got a glimpse of a cresent moon on Mono's cheek, though.

"Apples!" Apples said while smiling, his sharp teeth gleaming out. Mono glared down at the karpos and huffed before standing up, turning to Seven, "Thanks newbie," he said and Seven nodded.

"GUYS LOOK OUT!" Two shouted.

It was too late, their crate was suddenly pushed over and they all fell down. Six started freaking out and quickly held on Mono, Apples freaked out too and quickly ran to Five's shoulder.

"Guys!" Two shouted kneeling over the edge of the suitcase.

"Are you alright?!" One asked.

"Yeah!" Mono said, Six gasped while calming down, "What... pushed us over?"

Seven looked around the water and suddenly gasped as he was dragged down. The Granny looked at him with hatred as she pulled him down, Seven started panicking that he is loosing air.

He tried to break free and get to the surface, he was now loosing the tiny brink of his breath. He gasped out and blinked when the water started filling his lungs, but not in the killing kind.

The water will always help you, it is your heritage.

Water filled in Seven's lungs and he started breathing well. He took a moment to be at awe, he was breathing underwater and he felt dry. He wondered who was voice that resonated in his mind, it sounded familiar and he could remember was a warm smiling face of a man.

Seven felt the Granny clawing his feet and he snapped out of his pondering state. He pursed his lips, the Granny picked the wrong kid to drown. He rose his sword and stabbed the Granny's hand.

The Granny wailed and quickly let go of him, Seven pushed through the water and turned to see the Granny holding her hand, both her hand and wrist bleeding out.

Seven rose his sword in a fight stance. He hadn't fought in water yet, but he felt stronger, the water was his turf. The Granny glared at him.

"Aren't you gonna come for me?" Seven taunted, his voice was clear even in the water. The Ganny scowled at him and pulled out a conch, "Do you think that I am alone?" She asked and blew on it.

It resonated all around, Seven had to cover his ears from such loud sound. There was chittered and quips coming behind the Granny, the Granny smirked, "Meet my little helpers," she said.

Soon Seven saw about six figures with seal like bodies, dog faces, and flippers for arms and feet. They'd look adorable, if they didn't held swords, lances, and daggers, and had red demon eyes that just gave off the aura of what you call, bloodlust.

"Granny's gonna take a break, you handle him and his friends for me okay?" She asked the nearest seal dog demon and they nodded, "Okay Granny!" They quipped.

The Granny nodded and retreated, Seven scowled and stepped back, "What are you?" He asked. The seal dog demons grinned, "We're the telkhines! The fishes' children! The Granny's helper! We've come to kill you!" They said.

Not creepy at all that they talk in the same time, Seven thought while carefully inspecting his surroundings. He couldn't bring these demons to the surface to his friends, or else they'd drown - especially Six. In any way, the seal dog demons have the advantage.

One of the telkines lunged for Seven, he quickly dodged away. The telkine quickly somersaulted in the water and once again made their way for Seven, using their lance to scratch Seven's arm.

Seven was too late to dodge and get hit. He held his arm, waiting for the blood to come out but it quickly healed. Of course it would, he was in the water.

Seven dodged another telkine attack and quickly stabbed them in the heart, he hoped that they won't have water healing powers too. It seems they didn't since it died after he stabbed them.

That was one down, five more to go.

He looked up to the surface, it seemed that his friends walked on now to the other platform. Which was good, since Seven was thinking of something stupid.

He urged the water to shoot him up to the surface, the telkhines followed. He landed on a suitcase and turned back down to the water, urging it to swirl in circles. The water churned and started creating small circles until it sped up to a whirlpool.

All the telkhines were caught in the whirlpool, Seven made the water rose and he saw all the dizzy dog demons. He entrapped them in a little water bubble and tossed them to a far edge away from where he stood and away from the platform.

The telkhines were out of sight.

He sighed and slumped on the suitcase, somehow it was tiring to do all that. He turned to see his friends were on the platform now, well most of them since Mono was helping Six up.

Seven quickly pushed himself up and went on to his friends, One noticed him first and smiled, "Guys! Seven's here!" He said.

"Apples!" Apples grinned in greeting.

"Seven?! Oh gods are you okay?!" Six asked once Mono pulled her up from the water, Seven hopped onto their platform and was met with a bone-crushing hug.

"Ack, S-Six. Can't... breathe," Seven said and Six let go, "Sorry! I was just worried!" She chucked while rubbing the back of her neck sheepishly.

Seven smiled cheekily, "It's okay, the Granny left and I had to deal with some telkhines. I think they'll come back though," Seven said while eyeing the water.

Two nodded, "They will for sure come back. Quickly, we're almost there," she said while climbing up yet another ladder.

The others followed and saw another watery obstacle course, but up ahead was a platform that seemed to go into a room and a vent grille on top of the crates. They jumped through the suitcases, crates, and barrels smoothly until they made it to the other platform.

One climbed until he made it to the vent grille and worked his way opening it with Two's help. Six, Seven, Mono, and Five (plus Apples) all waited for them to be done with that work.

"We'll be going in there?" Six asked, Five nodded, "Yes, then we'll be there," he said and Apples nodded, "Apples."

"With all this jumping and fighting, a rest will do me so good," Seven sighed, he was still a bit tired from that water bubble act, but he could managed.

"Yeah," Mono mumbled.

The vent grille was open, One and Two went on first then Five, Mono, Six, and Seven. They quickly followed, One made a turn and led to a longer vent, they walked on until they saw another vent grille at the end.

One just pushed it aside and turned to them, "We're here," he said while hopping on out. Two and Five (don't forget Apples) went on next. Mono climbed down and so did Six and Seven.

On the other side, it was surprising.

.: Six's P.o.V. :.
.: First Person :.

There was a small little camp inside a big vent room, on each side there was a vent grille or opening that could lead to another place of the Maw. The camp had many tents and a big fire in the center of the camp. It was clearly incredible to look at.

But what was shocking is all the children running around, there was some working on metal scarps, some shooting over targets, some practicing with straw dummies, amd some talking over the fire with some maps and books.

"Wow," Seven whistled, "Is this the place?" He asked.

Two nodded, "Yup! Welcome to the Hideout! C'mon, we'll show you around," she said while walking on to the little camp. We followed.

There was a huge kid waiting for us by the border of the camp, when they saw us they quickly ran to us, "You're here!" They smiled, somehow they sounded like a girl even with such figure.

Two smiled, "Three! You've been waiting on us again?" She asked and the kid nodded, picking the three (and Apples, never forget that karpos) up to the big warm hug, "I was worried the Janitor or some monster saw you guys!" They said.

Two chuckled as the kid put them down, "We had help," she said while facing us, "Three, this is Six and Seven. Six and Seven, this is Three, daughter of Ares," she said.

Seven blinked while raising an eyebrow, "Daughter of Ares? With that kind of-oof!" He didn't finish since Mono elbowed him to the gut. I only hid my surprise that the big figure was a girl, but anyways, Ares' kids are all big and feisty, but Three looked like she wouldn't hurt a bug.

"Yup, I know I kinda don't look like it, but I am. Quite embarrassing actually," Three said shyly while smiling embarrassingly. I smiled, "It's okay Three, nice meeting you by the way. I'm Six, daughter of Hecate. Seven here is the son of Poseidon," I introduced.

Three's eyes widened like golden drachmas - currency of the Ancient Greek if you didn't know - and she turned to Seven, "Really?" She asked.

Seven smiled nervously, "Uh, yeah," he said.

"Anyways, here Three," Two handed Three some, and by some I meant a lot, of metal scraps, "Four would be happy to see these fine Celestial Bronze we found," she said and Three nodded while accepting the metal scraps, "He'll be estatic! I'll go show him these right away!" She said and walked on off.

"Who's Four?" Seven asked, One turned to us, "He's a son of Hepheastus. He hides his face with tons of bandages, we guess it's probably from all the smithing he does," he explained.

"We'll meet him later, anyways I did say we'll show you around the Hideout, and we will," Two said while looking over the big campfire, Mono shifted from his feet, "I'll be heading to my tent, you guys have fun," he said.

"Eh? Why?" I asked, Mono looked at me and shrugged, "I'm just gonna rest up a bit, I'll see you guys later," he said while looking away from us.

"Oh, okay then," I mumbled as he waved and turned to another set of tents far away. Seven and I looked at each other in confusion, then turned to Two, One, and Five as if they could asnwer the question rattling in our heads.

One sighed then chuckled dryly, "Heh, Mono doesn't like hanging out with us other kids, typical of him," he said.

"Why?" I asked again, Two pursed her lips while walking on, "You know who's his god parent, right? It was a shock at first since Artemis is a maiden goddess - no loving, no romance, nothing - and rules of breaking that is severe. Mono thinks he doesn't deserve his... exsistence and pushes everyone away," she said.

"That's just wrong," Seven frowned, I nodded, "And besides, as if Artemis would really bed a guy," I said.

"Oh that's another one, the thought of Mono being a thought child," One said and Seven blinked, "What's a thought child?"

Two elbowed One on the gut and smiled at Seven, "You'll know soon, anyways! This is the forge, Four must be here busy with making the ship we'll use," she said while pushing past a tent.

There was a bandaged kid tweaking on something, he wore a yellow cloak and from his feet to his head was wrapped with bandages, execpt for the eyes part. Another kid ran in and picked something up before running to the exit, the kid had a blue fur hat, a red scarf, and a brown jacket.

"Oh hold it there Scarf! You took the screwdriver!" Five stopped the kid, I guess his name is Scarf, probably from his red scarf. He huffed, "I am gonna give it back!"

"No you don't," the bandaged kid glared while picking out the screwdriver, from Scarf's hands.

Scarf slouched, "Y u so mean," he mumbled, Three chuckled while walking out from another part of the tent, "Well then, you wanna come stealing some food for us?"

"Oh hell yeaaahhh! Screw this hot place!" Scarf pumped his fist in the air and ran out the tent with Three following behind. Two sighed, "That was Scarf, son of Hermes. He likes stealing stuff from anyone, that and play pranks," she said.

"It's annoying," the bandaged kid mumbled while tossing their screwdriver in a tool box then turned to us, blinking when he realized there was new kids in the room, "Oh hey there strangers. I'm Four, I guess Two already told you about me," he said.

"Uh, yup. I'm Six, this is Seven," I said and he nodded, there was a ring and we all jolted, "Oop, gotta check that, see you!" He said while running deeper into the tent.

I turned to Two and she shrugged, "He makes lots of stuff he has less time talking to people, oh well, let's go," she said while walking out of the tent. We saw two girls run up to us, one looked like One with an orange cloak too and the other had black curly hair, olive skin with some freckles on her cheeks, a dark blue cardigan, brown pants with a belt pouch, and a white tank top.

"Brooottthhheeerrr!!!" The first girl called out while running up and hugging One, One chuckled and hugged back, "Hey Una! How are you?"

"How are YOU? You're the one who went out after all!" Una - I guess, since that's what One said - asked and One ruffled her hair, "I'm fine, got attacked by some demon chicken ladies but we're fine."

"The harpies?!" Una gasped and started inspecting One, "You don't have any wounds do you? I swear if you do I'll force feed ambrosia into your mouth myself!"

One chuckled, "I'm alright, I'm alright," he said and Una hugged him again, "Glad your safe!"

The other girl smiled shyly while looking at us, fiddling the edge of her cardigan. Two smiled, "Hello Thirteen," she said and Thirteen nodded, "Oha Duex," she mumbled.

Seven and I looked at each other then back at Thirteen, Two smiled while turning to us, "Thirteen has some speech problem, but she is a nice girl," she said and I nodded, then smiled at Thirteen, "Nice meeting you, Thirteen. I'm Six and this is Seven."

Thirteen blinked, then smiled, "Thirteen, je'mapelle Thirteen," she said. Una let go of One and turned to Thirteen, giggling, "I really like it when Thirteen speaks. It like she's talking any language," she said.

Thirteen blushed and nodded, then she perked up and poked Una urgently, Una blinked at her, "Uhm what... Oh right! Two we have to talk to you about something!" She said while turning to Two.

"Oh, what is it?"

"It's uhm... important," Una said and Thirteen nodded, Two nodded slowly then turned to us, "You guys are rest for a while, I have something to do, c'mon One," she said while walking off, One and Una following her.

Thirteen stayed behind to wave at us, "Adios," she said and followed the others.

I turned to Seven, "So... Let's go find out where Mono is right now?"

Seven blinked, then nodded, "Sure."
