The Kingdom of a Thousand Rulers

Arie
"Hey! Hey! Guys!" I said running in, face flushed, Jesse following. "Guys! Mom -- She... A-athena! She... was... eaten!"

Anshin
"Curses!" I hissed.

Luna
"She was eaten!?"

Arie
I nodded, my face pale. "Eaten!"

Anshin
"Zeus!" I called.

Zeus
"What?" I asked, coming down.

Arie
"Mom was eaten!"

Zeus
"Not another one... you may live here, as everyone else. We will get your mother back, we promise."

Jesse
"Thanks." I spoke for the first time.

Amy
I literally came dashing to Zeus's house. "ZEUS!" I screamed, bursting through the doors, then quickly slamming them loudly and locking them. I looked through the peephole and them called for Zeus again.

Zeus
"What happened!" I asked, came running down.

Amy
"Man! Eat! Dad! Chase! MEEE!" I said quickly and in as few words as possible.

Zeus
"Your dad... was eaten?"

Amy
I nodded speechlessly.

Zeus
"And the monster is chasing after you?"

Amy
I nodded again.

Zeus
"Do you see him here?"

Amy
"He chased me until I got near here." I said. "I didn't look back but he kept trying to chomp me up."

Zeus
"The door is locked, right?"

Amy
I nodded.

Zeus
"You can stay here for the time being."

Amy
"Thanks." I said.

Iris
"Amy?" I said, coming down.

Amy
"Iris!" I said. "I'm living here now."

Iris
"Wait -- what happened?"

AMy
"Dad. Man go chomp, he be gone."

Iris
"Aw... man..."
