did not happen. In other words I made it all up.

  Warning: This story is really weird, like most of my stories. It's really
out there in so many ways. I don't know how it's going to end I just know
the how it's going to begin. There may be sex, so if your under 18 don't

men then don't read any further.

  Authors Note: As all of you know, well those that have read my other

would like thank Kenitra, you have helped me so much. If it wasn't for
Kenitra I would have never started writing so thank you so much. For anyone
I didn't put in this, sorry. Ok now on with my favorite part of my stories,
the symbols. Ok these *** mean a character change. If I'm just starting a

*****Jetta*****

  That night I found myself in a world of nightmares, I was back at the
beginning. Well, not the beginning, but close enough for me. I was fighting
in a pointless war trying to save my friends. I had given them enough time
to escape, but now I was alone and without armor. I continued to fight with
just my sword, so far I had yet to be hit. That was when the light had
surrounded me. The voices said that I needed to do was ask for the help and
it would come. I shouted for help, I did not wish to die I was only
ten. The armor came then, it changed everything around me. My speed had
increased, everything had and soon the fight was over. I had single handily
defeated ten armed men, it was amazing. That was until I looked around, the
land itself cried out, the ground was red with blood. I was the only one
left alive, my heart ached at my actions against the human race. I had been
given a gift to fight for the human race, not destroy it. Or at least that
was what I had been told so long ago. I moved about the battle feild
searching for any kind of life. I found none, I had killed all of these
men, when I could have ran away. The armor would have given me the speed to
escape, but I had used it to kill all of these men. I ran to the nearest
river and looked at the reflection, the armor was covered in blood.

  I no longer looked like I had only hours ago, my hair was golden like the
sun. My face slightly paler, but there was blood. I jumped into the river
trying to wash it away I couldn't face my friends like this. I had to get
rid of the armor, and once the thought entered my mind the armor slipped
away. I pulled myself out of the river and looked around. I started
traveling to the destination that we had planned to meet up if I survived
the fight. I had no clothing which I found odd, but it was a nice summer
night. I found myself alone in our meeting place. I started a small fire
and decided to wait for everyone. I fell asleep soon after starting the
fire, I was awoken by some very bright lights. I jumped up ready to fight,
but I couldn't find my sword anywhere. The light was coming from every
place I could run to. "Do not fear child, I am here to help you, you are
one of my chosen. It is why you are hunted, it is why you have always had
to run, I am sorry for this. Their are others like you, with the same gifts
of my holy armor, and my holy weapons. You were born to destroy the false
gods that have taken this land. The armor will come at your call, as will
the swords. I have asked those who serve me to teach you what you need to
know. You are already a great warrior in your own right, but you will be
better, you must be." I looked deeply into the light, but there wasn't a
face, or even a form.

  I was scared, I had always known that I couldn't stay in the same place
to long. Now I knew why, but why did this have to happen to me? I looked
back to the light, why was I chosen, I had so many questions. "Your friends
are in danger, go save them with my gifts." The light was fading away
slowly, but I couldn't think properly. "How do I find them, where are
they?" The light continued to fade and voice was nothing more than a
whisper. "Your armor will lead you to them, go before it's to late." I
thought of the armor and soon I was armed once again. I thought of the
swords the voice had told me about and then they were in my hands. I
thought of my friends and how much they meant to me. My body started moving
at an amazing speed, after about thirty minutes I was there. They had my
friends surrounded, their weapons were drawn, and they were moving in for
the kill. "Stop, or you will leave me with no choice but to kill all of
you." They looked at me, then at the armor and swords, they laughed. "Run
while you can boy, or you'll be next to taste my blade." It was my turn to
laugh, I knew very well what this armor was capable of. I moved toward them
with amazing speed, and within seconds they were all dead. My friends
looked at me with horror, their fear was heart breaking.

  After that night I never saw any of them again, I was my own. I moved
from village to village, never staying more than a month. Then I met her,
she wonderful and everything I had ever dreamed of. She was my age and she
looked at me without fear, that amazed me. I showed her what I looked like
with my armor, but she didn't run she only smiled. I fell in love with her,
soon after we were married. One year later I lost her to child birth, but I
had a son now. At first I didn't know what to do, but I found friend that
helped me a great deal. For the next three years he helped me raise him,
how we did it I'll never know. He became my lover, my husband, in that time
it was acceptable. He made me a promise, that I could only pray he
kept. Still I wondered what my son's fate was, he was so young and so
innocent. I woke up slowly to someone shaking my shoulder, at first I had
almost attacked, then I remembered where I was. I opened my eyes to see
Brian smiling down at me, he looked concerned. "I heard you moving around a
lot, are you ok?" I nodded and sat up slightly then stepped out of the
bunk. "Just my past coming back to haunt me in new ways." Brian nodded
slowly and draped his arm over my shoulder, his smile brightened me up a
little. "We really have to talk about this clothing thing, but since you
were sleeping. Anyway were at our hotel, everyone else has already gone to
their rooms." I nodded and tried to move forward, but Brian placed his hand
on my shoulder.

  I looked at him with confusion, then I looked down. I reached back into
the bunk and grabbed my boxers. I slid them on and looked at Brian, he
raised his eye brows slightly. I looked back in the bunk and grabbed the
pants, then slipped into them. Now he was smiling and leading the way
toward the hotel. Once inside we went straight to Brian's room, it was a
really nice room now that I thought about it. I saw the bed and crashed on
one side, Brian soon joined me. We both got under the covers, I then took
my clothing back off. Brian had slipped down to his boxers under the
covers, I think he was trying to tell me something. I didn't pay any
attention, I took a deep breath and tried to go back to sleep. I pushed my
body up against Brian's, then I slid my arms around him, now I could
sleep. I laid my head on his back and started drifting away, this time I
had no strange dreams. I was at peace, and for once I didn't worry or fear
anything in the world. I would soon find out that no matter what time I
lived in there would always be something waiting to destroy me. That didn't
matter right now, all that mattered was the peace that had taken me. The
dreams that filled my mind this time were that of Brian and happy life. I
could see myself growing old with him in my arms every second of the day.

*******Jupiter

  I watched Jetta sleep with his new found companion, he looked so
peaceful. I felt a ping of jealously, how could he forget me so soon? It
was a given that I had tricked him into believing I was someone else. That
didn't matter he was mine, even if I had imprisoned him in stone. I still
cared for him, I kept him safe from others that would do him harm. I took
care of his son, I had given him my word that I would. His son still lived,
but now he was a god. For Jetta to carry out his mission he would have to
kill his own son. I had made sure that I had a back up plan just in case he
ever escaped his prison. I had never thought Venus would pity him and then
give him a chance at freedom. After that I had to guard him, to keep others
away from him as much as I could. Then along came his other half and set
him free before I could change his mind. Even with Venus trapped in the
crystal she still kept me from harming either of them. So I made sure to
keep his son alive, and hating his father. "Father is that one, the one you
wish for me to kill?" I looked at Coran, he had become a very strong man, a
strong god. "Yes, but not yet my son, I want him to feel safe. Then I want
you to look him in the eyes, then plunge your sword into his heart." Coran
was looking at the picture of Jetta, and it worried me.

  Coran moved closer, then he got this confused look on his face. "I
remember him from somewhere, I remember his face. He use to cry with me as
a child, father how can this be?" I looked at him giving him my saddest
smile, it had taken years to perfect. "When you were very young he stole
you away from me. After he killed your mother, he tried to raise you to
destroy me, but I got you back." Coran looked angry now and I wondered if I
really wanted Jetta dead. I could just let him live his life out on that
mortal world, but there was still danger. He could try to awaken the others
that still remained, and my rule would finally be over. I knew he was
strong and smart, far smarter then ever gave himself credit for. He had an
inner strength that just amazed me, that was the reason I had cared for
him. When I had killed his wife making him think it was just the child
birth I though he would break. He was so young, no he was stronger than
that he went on and with his child. I had taken pity on him then, I made
myself appear to be human and his lover. I helped him take care of Coran,
and made sure Coran would survive for this very moment. I knew in my heart
that I could never truly kill Jetta, he would always have a place in my
heart. That didn't mean I couldn't send someone to kill him for me, but
none of the other gods were good enough.

  I knew that Jetta would strike them down without much trouble. Now his
son on the other hand was a great warrior. That wasn't the only reason I
knew he would win, if Jetta just knew it was his son. Jetta would never
raise his swords against his own son, not in a million years. I just had to
make sure that Jetta knew who he was fighting, that would be all it would
take. Then Jetta would give up his life to his son, it would be sad but
that was life. I worried that Coran would realize the truth after he killed
his father, then he would come after me. Not that it would do him any good,
I would just trap him with Venus. Which reminded me I needed to pay her a
visit, she's been screaming a little to loudly. In seconds I was standing
beside the crystal that held Venus prisoner, she looked at me and
smiled. "He's free, and he's going to kill you, then he'll set me free,
just wait." I looked at her and smiled, I was impressed that she could
still sense him. "He will be dead shortly Venus, and I won't have to worry
about him or you ever again. Coran will take his life for all the god's,
trust me on this." She started laughing loudly, then she stopped. "It won't
happen Jupiter, Coran will realize that Jetta is his father. They will join
forces and destroy you so easily, I'll enjoy the show." I just laughed and
turned away from the crystal.

  I turned back slowly and looked Venus in the eyes. "He may realize it,
but it will be to late then. If he tries to attack me or the other gods I
will simply imprison him here with you." She didn't look to happy now, in
fact she had tears falling from her eyes. "When did you become so heartless
Jupiter, you use to love him." I was speechless, and almost tempted to
release her. "I remember when you warned the other gods to never lay a hand
on him. I remember it all, you spoke from your heart then, I could hear
it. You loved him Jupiter, and you have never loved anyone else like you
loved him. I remember the tears that fell the night you turned him into
stone. I was watching you that night, you cried out for him. I watched you
watch him from afar, always keeping your distance. You love him Jupiter,
and no matter what happens you always will. So when you send his son to
kill him, remember that when he dies you'll never see him again. That will
be the end, no more watching him, no more guarding him. It will end quickly
and simply, just know that when Coran's sword enters his heart." I refused
to listen to any more of this foolishness, I just left her to her
thoughts. It was her punishment for all the heartache she had caused us. I
went to Coran's side and looked at him, he was studying Jetta closely. He
was making marks on Jetta, and as I watched him my heart skipped a beat.

  He was going to kill Jetta in a most unpleasant way, a painful
way. "Coran, all you have to do his take his life, no need for all the
blood." He looked at me with this dark smile and looked back to the
picture. "I'm going to make him pay father, I'm going to make him scream in
pain. Then when he's done screaming, I'll make him cry, then scream some
more. Even in death he will never forget his last moments alive, they will
be so filled with pain." I couldn't believe what I was hearing from his
mouth, how could he be so evil? "Coran, there isn't the need for his pain,
only his death. Plus you have to remember he is a great warrior. You won't
have time to do all this, just worry about killing him." Coran slowly
nodded, but I knew he wasn't really listening to me. He looked so much like
his father it was scary. Then the thought hit me, maybe just maybe Venus
was right. I pushed the thought out of my mind and reminded myself how
great a danger he was. "Coran, there was once a time when Jetta wasn't
completely evil. During that time he served us loyally, that is why I wish
him a speedy death." Coran looked unmoved and I wondered if I had only made
it worse. I knew now that I had to find a way to end this quickly. A new
thought made it's way into my mind, if Coran spent to much time trying to
kill Jetta, he may realize the truth.

******Venus

  I could watch the world from my imprisonment, Jupiter had no clue. I had
watched over Jetta since the day he had been imprisoned. I watched him even
now, and I feared his fate. I had tried my hardest to work my powers on
Coran, but now I worried if I had done enough. Jupiter had poisoned his
mind for so long, and now I didn't know if the things I had done would be
strong enough. It would take Coran looking into Jetta's eyes and giving
himself a chance to remember before he would. If Jupiter had Coran just
kill Jetta then he wouldn't remember anything of his father. Jetta's love
for Coran had gotten my attenion before his imprisonment. After his
imprisonment I had tried to find a way to set him free. While I searched
for a way I put images into Coran's mind, kept his love for his father
alive. It had taken to long to help Jetta, and Coran was getting to
old. Jupiter had made sure Coran hated Jetta, but still I tried. Soon I was
given a chance to free Jetta, it hadn't worked out so well. I had taken
half of his soul and was close to putting it into another body. That was
when all hell broke so to speak, Jupiter had found me. I did the only thing
I could, I let half of Jetta's soul free, so hopefully it would find it's
master. I had no idea that it would find it's way into the river of life to
be reborn, it was amazing. I had remembered laughing at Jupiter's anger, he
kept asking how, like I had known.

  I still didn't know how his soul had managed to be reborn. Time after
time his soul was reborn after every death. There was only one problem, the
soul had no control over it's memories. So it went through most life's
without even thinking of it's original keeper, that was until Jetta wizened
up. I still didn't know if her had done this knowingly, or simply by will
alone. He wanted freedom and he was going to get it one way or another, so
he sent images into his soul's mind. Now all of that work had paid off, he
was free once again. He was ready to kill Jupiter, or at least I hoped he
still held great anger toward the ruler of the gods. If I could get Jetta
close enough, he could set me free, then I could help him. If nothing more
I could send him to another time where he would be safe, where he could at
least live. I could send him into the past, maybe give him another chance
to destroy Jupiter. I had been saving up all the energy I could since I had
been imprisoned. If I had to I would use all of it at once to open a portal
to another time and place where I could send Jetta. I knew that with
sending him back in time he would have a better chance at survival. Jetta
was a warrior, in honesty I was surprised to see him making his way in this
new world.

  I guessed I felt a common bond with the boy, he to was a prisoner. He
just didn't look like your normal prisoner. He was in a new world and time,
he knew nothing compared to what he would need to know. Still he lived,
even with the help of his new friends, and his growing love for the one he
now slept with. I worried that just maybe he could not survive in the past
alone. I would have to send others with him, together they could survive. I
already had a time in mind for Jetta, one where he could easily become king
in a matter of days. It was the time Merlin and Arthur had ruled the land
with kindness and fairness. A time of swords and armor much like that of
Jetta's, only he would truly be unstoppable. I would have to make a few
other adjustments to all of them so they could speak and understand the
languish. In truth it wasn't really all that hard to do, it was sending
them back that was the hard part. It would take a very long time to save up
that kind of energy again. It was worth it, at least I would know that I
had done something right. That I hadn't spent my whole life just thinking
of myself and the other gods, I could make up for it. I had to be ready to
pull him out at just the right moment, other wise all would be lost. I had
to wait until Coran tired to make the killing blow that would end his
fathers life. Then I could pull him and his friends to another time,
hopefully to a safer time.

*****Jetta

  I had a strange feeling wash over me the next morning, it wasn't
something I had felt in a long time. I tried my best to push the thoughts
out of my mind and continue with what lay a head of me. I had to get ready
to fake who I was and where I had come from, not an easy job. Besides that
I had this feeling that I wasn't going to make it to America. I don't know
why it was just there, a fear of something coming. "Nice to see you again
Jetta, how long has it been." I turned slowly to see Jupiter looking at me
with this small smile on his lips. I wasn't afraid of him anymore, I simply
summoned my armor and swords. I wouldn't allow him to just take my life
this time. "I see you haven't lost your touch, willing to fight and all
that." I smiled to myself and wondered if he knew just what this armor
could do. I moved as quickly as the armor would allow, soon I was behind
him my sword at his throat. "I do believe that the last time I struck out
at you it left a mark. I wonder if this time will leave you without a
head." His body shook lightly as he thought about trying to escape. "If you
kill me now you will never see your son again Jetta, and trust me when I
say I have him." It was nothing but a lie, my son was dead by now, there
wasn't any way for him to still be alive. Then Jupiter's whole body changed
and revealed something I couldn't believe.

  I pushed him away and as he turned he held the face of my long lost
lover. "Did you really think that I loved you then, I only wanted your
son. He's a god now Jetta, and he doesn't remember you. So that would mean
that you would have to kill him for you to complete your mission." I looked
at him, my heart ached and my mind raced with thoughts of another
betrayal. "No, I don't have to kill him, only you and the other gods, well
most of them. I would spare Venus, after all she made sure I would find
freedom again." Jupiter laughed as he started changing back to his true
self, but my heart no longer ached. "You will have to kill him Jetta, or he
will kill you, it's that simple. Even then you would have to find me and
the other gods. Not an easy task, plus you could never take us all on at
once." I shook my head, my son would never raise a sword against me. No
matter what Jupiter did to his mind, or body my son wouldn't harm me. "You
fool, I always thought you were a fool, now you've just proven it." I spoke
to him in between fits of laughter. His face was turning bright red, I just
laughed harder, then he tried to attack me. I easily dodged his little
attack and tripped him, his face hit the ground hard. I looked at him and
kicked him in his ass, then laughed a little more while he stood up.

  He looked like he could rip me into a thousand pieces, I'd like to see
him try. I don't know why, but there was no fear like the last time I faced
him. "You're nothing Jupiter, and never were, I just wonder why I feared
you. You're so weak, I could have killed you all those years ago. If only I
had worn my armor, and used my swords like I should have." I looked at him
and shook my head, he was regaining himself quickly, but not to attack. "I
was going to wait a while before I sent your son to kill you. Now I won't,
so be ready Jetta, he's coming for you. You know I should call him my son,
after all I raised him like a god. He doesn't remember you, and he never
will, to him you're nothing." I had enough of his little speech, it was
time to kill him. Then he was gone, I was filled with rage beyond
comparison. Nick and the others ran into the room, Nick had a copy of my
armor. "I hope you weren't wearing any of your favorite clothing, but I
didn't have a choice. An old friend decided that now was the time to reveal
something to me, anyway sorry. By the way if you don't mind, don't travel
to far away for the time being." They all looked confused, but none of them
even tried to question me. I waited for what I knew would be an impostor,
someone that would look like my son. Jupiter would do anything to get my
guard down, but I wouldn't let it work.

  As the day slowly slipped away I felt him coming, a god. It was the same
feeling I had when Jupiter had shown himself. I had forgotten that it
happened every time a god got near me. It was a warning system that I had
gotten use to using a very long time ago. I looked to the others and asked
them to follow me outside. All I had on was a robe, it was the same with
Nick. I walked into a very dimly lit park, no need to give them any
advantages. I stood waiting for him to show his face, I could feel that he
was very near. "Jetta, for the crimes committed against the God's I will
punish you, for the crimes committed against my father I will kill you." I
turned and looked at the god and smiled lightly, he didn't look that
strong. I dropped the robe, which through him off, he didn't understand my
nudity. Seconds later the armor covered my body and my swords were now in
my hands. "Take your best shot pretty boy, I'll show you how we did it in
my time. To think that Jupiter thought you could make me believe you were
my son." The god looked confused, but that didn't stop him from charging
forward. I easily dodged his little attacks, he was getting frustrated. "I
could have killed you a few times, I thought you were a god, not a child."
He moved to quickly for my eyes to follow, to say I was shocked was an
understatement. I ducked just in time to miss my head being taken off by
his sword.

  I jumped into the air kicking one leg forward, then the other backward. I
kicked something very hard, it went flying into a tree. I landed and turned
around, the god looked dazed. He looked into my eyes with confusion, in his
eyes I could see someone else. I froze, his eyes were that of a child I had
once known, once loved. He was my son, there wasn't a doubt in my mind. I
dropped my swords and moved toward him, he looked confused once again. I
let the armor slip away as I knelt down in front of him, he looked almost
happy. "Coran, I've missed you so much, I thought that I had lost you." His
smile got slightly larger, then I felt something slip into my stomach. The
pain was instantly rushing through my body. I fell back and looked at him,
he was still smiling, I didn't understand. "Coran, how could you do this to
me, why would you do this to me?" He slowly stood and looked toward my
friends, he looked confused. I turned to see Nick laying on the ground
holding his stomach. Blood was pouring out of his stomach like mine, he was
dying. "One soul, one heart, two minds, two bodies, when I die so does he."
I looked at Coran and slowly stood up, the pain was almost blinding. I
reached out summoning my swords, this man couldn't be my son, he was never
this evil.

  I pulled my armor on, if I was die I would take him with me. "You did a
good job fooling me, I really thought you were my son. I won't make that
mistake again, prepare to die, for my death and the death of a friend. For
everything you and your kind has done to the human race, now and then." He
looked scared almost like he was regretting his last actions. "Always with
the little speeches, now Jetta I thought you would be dead by now." I
turned around and faced Jupiter, he looked pleased with himself. I didn't
think twice when I flug my hand toward him. My sword flew straight into his
chest piercing his heart, he looked shocked. "I knew you would come, you're
a fool, and fools always make mistakes." As he fell backward the other god
ran to his side catching him, he looked heart broken. The blood was
starting to leak through the armor and onto the ground. "You killed my
father, I will make you pay, you will pay forever." He moved toward me
holding his hand out, when he touched me my wound healed. I didn't give him
a chance to realize his mistake, I kicked him in his chest. "Foolish god,
now pay the price, and die a quick death like your father." He started
laughing at me, not the wisest of choices. I looked toward Nick, he had
been healed the same instant that I had. I opened my hand pulling my sword
to my hand, it still had Jupiter's blood on it.

  "My name is Coran by the way, I thought you would like to know the name
of the god that's going to take your life." He wasn't playing any games
anymore, he was pulling lightening out of the sky. I didn't know how much
my armor could handle in that area, I just hoped I could take enough. I
moved toward him only to be stopped by some kind of shield that I couldn't
see. When he started launching the lightening at me I had to use everything
I had to dodge it. He was throwing bolt after bolt, and every time he was
getting closer and closer. I lost my footing and hit the ground hard, that
was when I thought the lightening would finally catch up to me. I was
wrong, because one-second before it made it's impact a blue light filled my
vision. I don't know what happened, but I opened my eyes to see the
sun. "What the hell is going on, and where on earth are we?" I looked at
that area, it wasn't really a question of where we were it was when. The
air was to clean, the tree's far to strong for it to be the same
time. "Where I don't know guys, but I would guess that we just traveled
back in time." Thirty seconds later I saw two men riding toward us. Each
had their own set of armor, only it was no where near as good as mine. I
smiled to myself, I had once lived in this time so to speak. I knew that a
lot of men were treated like slaves. I wasn't going to let that happen, and
I didn't have to worry about killing anymore.

  As the men grew closer I drawled myself up and looked up at them. "Are
these men yours, or are they for sale?" I looked at the guys who looked a
little worried, then back to the slave traders. "There free men, but I
would like to see you try and take them down." The traders laughed lightly
as the looked at me more closely, I guess my age showed. "You are nothing
but a boy, I could use a boy like you, bow before me." I laughed then, they
looked amused, the guys behind me looked worried. "You know I love being in
this time, it mean's I can kill you and not worry about." I had the traders
attention now as they drew their swords. I lunched my swords in two
different directions and looked up at the traders. "Well, what are you
waiting for, come on come and get yourself a little pain." The first trader
was off his horse in a matter of second and moving toward me. I opened my
hand summoning my sword, it scared him somewhat since he stopped moving
forward. "I could use those horses, so I think I'm going to take them now."
In the matter of three seconds he no longer had a head, while the other
trader remained frozen. I looked up at him as I cleaned the blood off my
sword, he tried to ride away. I launched my sword into his back and watched
as he fell off the horse. I moved to quickly for the others to follow, I
grabbed the horse and stopped it from running any further.

To Be Continued
