Part XX

Blaise appeared before Xena, who incredulously stared at her. "Oh, geez…sorry." Blaise nervously chuckled and turned her back so her sister could put her clothes on.

"Have you ever heard of this great invention called a door?" Xena sarcastically asked as she slipped on her clothes.

Blaise snickered, "Sorry…I'm having a problem getting this godhood location thing down. I've really got to have Cupid help me out with that." Blaise's small smile intensified when she saw her niece before her in the crib. "Hello beautiful." She softly cooed and smoothed out her dark hair. "You are going to be quite the heartbreaker like my kids aren't you?" She cockily chuckled.

Xena laughed, "Let's hope she has her mother's soft, sweet and wonderful personality instead of my…at times, nasty one." She replied with a sarcastic grin.

Blaise laughed and gave a quick glance over her shoulder. "You have a nasty personality? Nah, I beg to differ with anyone who says otherwise." Blaise laughed harder and looked back at her niece. "If your mother's don't give you whatever your little heart desires, you come and see Auntie Blaise and I'll hook you up." Blaise conspiratorially whispered and felt Xena's hand clench her shoulder.

"Now you're not being a bad influence on my daughter are you?" She smiled, looking at Blaise.

"Ha…Ha…Please, not me. What do you take me for?" Blaise chuckled as Xena opened her mouth to respond and Blasie halted her. "Don't go there sis." Blaise laughed, joined by Xena.

Xena lovingly looked into the crib and lightly stroked the dark hair of her precious daughter. "She's so beautiful Blaise." Xena adoringly smiled. "Thanks." She softly voiced and gave Blaise a sideways glance.

"Hey, no problem. You and Gabrielle deserve to be happy and to have a wonderful, happy life with plenty of children in it." Blaise smiled.

"That would be incredible, but I think this child may be the only one we have."

"Nah, you two won't have any problems having more children considering Gabrielle's godhood." Blaise answered, softly rubbing Jade's arm and bit her lip when she realized what she had said.

"What are you talking about?" Xena questioned confused.

'Damn.' Blaise admonished her stupidity for casually spitting it out and looked over her shoulder at Gabrielle, who was sound asleep in the bed before turning back to Xena. "She won't be able to hear us will she?"

"Blaise, one of Zeus' thunderbolts couldn't wake her right now." Xena answered, rolling her eyes in disbelief at Blaise's question. "Now, what were you talking about?"

"Well," Blaise began and turned to face Xena. "It seems that Aphrodite and Hades had an affair which produced twins, but Zeus and Hera concocted a scheme to erase Aphie's memory to send the twins off to live with mortals at the request of her unforgiving husband Hephaestus.

"What?" Xena asked, surprised. "Wait…what does this have to do with Gabrielle?" Xena was confused and in disbelief at what Blaise had told her.

Blaise looked at Gabrielle, "She's one of the twins." She answered and looked back at her stunned sister. "Close your mouth before your drool spills out." Blaise chuckled at her reaction.

"Wow…this is shocking, unbelievable." Xena answered, astonished by the latest news.

"Why? Are you afraid Gabrielle will kick your ass once she learns the powers of her godhood?" Blaise teasingly laughed and poked Xena in the rib that was not amused.

Xena smirked, "Who's the twin and if you say Callisto I'll have to sit down for that news."

Blaise clicked her teeth at the comment and snarled up her lip, "No need to sit down, it's not Callisto. It's Ephiny."

"Ephiny? Are you serious?" She asked, shocked.

"Positive, isn't it cool?" Blaise excitedly asked, smiling.

"Yeah, uh-oh. I hope Ephiny doesn't want to pay me back for that broken arm I gave her once she finds out she's a god." Xena chuckled.

"Broken arm?" Blaise asked, her demeanor changed to protective for her wife's honor as she moved closer to Xena.

"Hey, hold up! I was in a rage at the time and I apologized to Ephiny just the other day actually." Xena explained, defensively.

"Why'd you do it?" Blaise asked, curious.

"It was after Solan died and I was angry. I wanted to kill Gabrielle because I held her responsible for his death." She regretfully explained.

"Why would you blame Gabrielle?" Blaise asked confused.

"I blamed Gabrielle because she didn't kill that damn demon child Hope who ultimately was the one who killed him." She guiltily remembered.

"That's a lot to ask of someone Xena. Especially Gabrielle."

"I know and I wish I never would have done that to her, but Hope was pure evil and had to be stopped."

"From what I hear, you used to be the same way, but Gabrielle changed you. What makes you think Hope wouldn't have changed the same as you did?"

Xena looked at Blaise unpleased by the comment, but she was right and the truth hurt like hell. "Yes, that's true, but there was no changing Hope Blaise, even if she was partly Gabrielle's child. For the greater good, she had to die and eventually Gabrielle came to the same realization…no matter how much it hurt her."

"Well, you have a chance to love, care and nurture this child with everything that is so special and wonderful about the two of you." Blaise smiled and patted Xena on the shoulder.

"Yes, we do." Xena grinned, looking down at her daughter with a hopeful smile for the life that lay ahead of them. "We are going to do right by her and our future children Blaise. I promise not to make the same mistakes I did with Solan and with Hope."

"That's wonderful. Listen…aah…I haven't told Eph the details yet. I told her the gods had something planned at Olympus. They are having a dinner party to honor my new godhood and I want you both there. Do you think you can get Gabrielle to go along with us? Is she feeling up to it?" Blaise asked, concerned for Gabrielle's well being.

"I'm sure I could get her there. She has remarkable healing powers and has been doing great since Jade's birth."

"Excellent. Get her and Jade ready as I get Mom. We'll meet at our new house. Oh, yeah! Wait until you see our new home." Blaise grinned proudly.

"Your house?" Xena asked, surprised.

"Yeah, it's just outside the village. It's the only way all of us could be happy and keep our family together. It's the huge house next to the lake. Ephiny and the kids are there now. I'll get Mom and meet you there, then we'll head to Olympus. Keep quiet with the women and once we are there I'm going to tell Aphrodite before it's announced to the family. This should be great. I think Ephiny and Gabrielle are going to be ecstatic to find out they are twins and that Aphrodite is their mother. They may not take it too well knowing Hades is their father, but I'm sure they'll come around." Blaise smiled, excitedly and disappeared.

Xena turned and lovingly looked at Gabrielle, "Let's hope she takes it well." Xena softly replied, concerned for her lover as she approached the bed to wake her.

Blaise appeared in Cyrene's tavern. "Yes! I think I'm finally getting the hang of this!" Blaise excitedly exclaimed and looked up to see Joxer sitting at the bar. "Dude!" She shouted and chuckled when he fell off the bar stool, startled.

"Blaise, hey!" He embarrassingly replied and jumped up holding his hand out to her.

"Hey, how ya been?" She smiled, clasping hands with him.

"Aaah…drunk." He chuckled bashfully.

"Nothing wrong with that, occasionally." She smiled and patted him on the back with a hearty laugh.

"He's been a huge help to me around here." Cyrene offered, entering the room. She moved in behind the bar to drop off some mugs.

"Mother." Blaise smiled.

"Blaise." Cyrene coldly answered and exited the room without looking at her daughter.

"Yeah…I needed a job. So…aah…Cyrene let me do some work around here." Joxer attempted to explain.

Blaise turned to him. "Why? Do you not want to work for me anymore?" Blaise asked, hurt that he wanted a different job.

"You mean I still have a job with you?" He excitedly asked.

"Of course, you're my protégé and I'll need you even more now that I'm a god."

"Really?" He enthusiastically asked, smiling proudly.

"You know it. Get cleaned up, we're going to a party at Olympus." Blaise informed him and headed out of the room to settle some business with her mother.

"Olympus? Wow…cool!" He excitedly answered and headed out the door towards the well to clean up.

Blaise approached the room where Cyrene was and paused at the door, watching her mother. "What do you have to say to me Blaise?" Cyrene asked, still upset with her younger daughter.

"Mother…I took your advice and apologized to Ephiny." Blaise informed her and reluctantly approached her mother. "We have a wonderful home just outside of the Amazon village so, it accommodates to all of our needs." She explained, smiling as her mother turned to her.

"That's wonderful Blaise and I'm glad you finally came to your senses." She chuckled and smiled happily. She had renewed faith that there might be hope for her youngest daughter and that she wasn't completely like her father.

"The house is wonderful and there's a huge room just for you when you come to visit us." Blaise excitedly informed her, she was proud of her home and couldn't wait to show it off to everyone…especially her mother.

"My own room huh?" Cyrene chuckled, intrigued by the offer.

"Yes and the best part is you don't have to leave the confines of our lovely home to use the outhouse. We have one inside." Blaise boasted and saw her mother's eyes widen.

"Wow…that's fabulous. When do I get to see this home?" She asked smiling.

"Right now." Blaise laughed.

"Oh, Blaise. I can't go right now. I have to pack and get someone to run the tavern while I'm gone. It would be at least a couple of days before I could make it." She wanted to go, but was unsure if she could get away at that moment.

"Mother…could you please close the tavern for the evening or arrange for one of your helpers to run the place. I'm sure you could trust them, considering your daughter is the God of War. I don't think they would do anything to betray you." Blaise mischievously smiled. "Besides, the Gods are having a grand party for me later, in honor of me receiving my godhood and I would really like for you to be there."

"Oh, well why didn't you say so. I'll close the tavern for the evening, as I wouldn't want to miss being there for you on such a special evening. Oh, what do I wear?" She asked, nervous that she didn't have something appropriate to wear.

"Mother…don't fret. You look perfect just the way you are." Blaise smiled and tried to reassure her nervous mother.

"In this horrid old thing?" She asked, exasperated and looked down at her dress. "You are a smooth talker Blaise." She snickered. "Oh, I know what I'll wear!" She excitedly giggled and rushed out of the room.

Blaise laughed and waited for her mother to return. "Wow…you are one hot mama!" Blaise exclaimed when her mother entered the room. Cyrene blushed and approached Blaise.

"Do you like it?" She asked, seeking Blaise's approval.

"You look fabulous!" Blaise enthusiastically answered. "Hey, where's Tarus?" Blaise asked, as she wanted to ask her brother to join them.

"Oh, he's out of town on business, he won't be able to make it honey." Cyrene frowned, as she knew that Blaise would be disappointed that her brother would not be able to join them.

"Bummer. So, where did you intend to wear that sexy dress Mom?" Blaise mischievously grinned and placed her arm around her mother.

Cyrene blushed and slipped her arm around Blaise's waist. "For my hot date with Samuel." She answered, grinning like a giddy girl.

"Samuel? Do Tarus and Xena know about this man? What does he do for a living and what are his intentions with you?" Blaise protectively asked.

"Oh, Blaise. Stop that. He's a very nice man with good intentions." Cyrene chuckled at her daughter's protectiveness.

"He better have good intentions with my mother or he will have to face the wrath of the God of War." Blaise boasted and squeezed her mother with a chuckle. "Does he know about your children?" Blaise laughed, wondering if the poor man knew what he was getting into.

"Not yet, I thought I would save that for the second date." She grinned.

"Good thinking. Let's get Joxer and see my house before the party." Blaise smiled and held out her arm for her mother who grasped it. Thanks Mom." Blaise grinned.

"Oh, how could I miss your party Blaise?" Cyrene smiled, looking up at her tall, striking daughter.

"No for bringing me to my senses with Ephiny." Blaise answered and kissed her cheek. "You were right, I was being like my father and I don't want to be that way…ever."

"I'm so glad to hear that honey." Cyrene smiled and hugged her.

"Come on." Blaise blushed, breaking the hug and joined Joxer before everyone disappeared.

"I love traveling that way!" Cyrene chuckled, as they reappeared at Blaise's home…outside.

"Sorry, I'm working on perfecting the exact place I want to be. I thought I was getting the hang of it…not." Blaise sheepishly grinned and opened the door. "Hi honey…I'm home!" She exclaimed as everyone laughed and entered the spacious home. "Mother!" Ephiny excitedly greeted and hugged Cyrene.

"Ephiny, it's so good to see you." She replied, breaking the hug. "Where are my grandbabies?" She asked smiling and saw Chayce and Jordyn playing on the floor next to the fireplace. "There they are!" She excitedly shouted and headed straight for them. Cyrene hugged and kissed the children incessantly as they giggled.

"Let's show you the house Mother, it's beautiful." Ephiny proudly smiled and winked at Blaise who blushed. She picked up Jordyn as Cyrene grabbed Chayce for a tour of their new home.

"Great place Blaise." Joxer smiled and looked around the room awestruck at the beauty of it.

"Thanks. Hey, I've got something to show you." Blaise mischievously smiled and led him out the back door of the house.

"Wow…nice huge outhouse." Joxer smiled and nodded approvingly.

"No, that's your bachelor pad dude." Blaise smiled and chuckled at Joxer's shocked expression.

"For me?" He asked, astonished.

"Yeah, you've done a great job working for me and you deserve it. This way you won't be too far away for your work duties."

"Excellent…thanks." He enthusiastically smiled and hugged Blaise appreciatively. She laughed and patted him on the back, breaking the embrace. He embarrassingly wiped the tears from his eyes and looked at his new place. "No one has ever done something like this for me. I'll never forget it." He smiled and headed towards his small house to take a look.

Blaise smiled happily and headed back inside to join everyone. "Blaise your home is beautiful." Cyrene gushed in awe.

"And enormous!" Xena exclaimed as she held the door open for Gabrielle, who entered the house carrying Jade.

"I'm glad that I don't have to clean it." Gabrielle laughed as she approached the group.

"Oh, my new grandbaby!" Cyrene tearfully exclaimed and handed Chayce to Blaise.

Ephiny smiled as she looked up at Blaise and cozily moved next to her tall mate. Blaise returned the smile and wrapped her arm around Ephiny as they watched Cyrene meet her new granddaughter.

"Oh, she's so incredibly beautiful." She gushed, holding the newborn in her arms. "I see she has that dark hair that runs in the family." She proudly smiled.

"I'm sure that she will have the beautiful blue eyes that you all possess as well…at least I hope so." Gabrielle smiled happily and glanced over her shoulder at Xena when she felt her hand on her shoulder.

"I'm still holding out hope for those beautiful green eyes." Xena smiled and affectionately stroked her daughter's cheek.

"Well, we can honestly say that your grandchildren are gorgeous Mother." Blaise arrogantly professed as everyone laughed.

"Oh, wow! The new baby!" Joxer excitedly exclaimed as he entered the house and approached Cyrene. "I love kids…can I hold her?" He enthusiastically asked standing next to Cyrene.

"NO!" Gabrielle, Xena, Cyrene and Ephiny all nervously exclaimed at the same time. "Well, aah…Joxer can I hold her for a little while longer? I just met her." Cyrene pleasantly asked, hoping he wouldn't be offended by the fact that no one trusted him enough to hold the baby.

"Oh, yeah. Sure. Wow…she's beautiful." He enthusiastically smiled and looked at Gabrielle and Xena.

"Thank you." Gabrielle proudly smiled.

"Well, the gangs all here. So, let's hit Olympus." Blaise smiled as everyone moved together.

"Let's hope you get us all there together." Xena teasingly chuckled.

"This is true." Blaise laughed as they all disappeared. "Whew…we made it." Blaise sighed relieved that they all actually made it to Olympus. "Okay…I aah have to speak with Zeus and Hera before the party. You all can wait in here and I'll be back in a flash. Feel free to help yourself to anything you want." She explained and led them into the expansive dining room. "Oh, look. My father will be more than happy to serve you anything you want." Blaise sarcastically replied as she saw her father setting the table. "Oh, remember what Zeus said about doing anything to the guests Father. No poisoning them or you will have an extended stay in the Abyss of Tartarus." Blaise tauntingly answered and patted him on the back. He angrily gritted his teeth, seething at the incessant teasing. "Pay back is a bitch isn't it?" Blaise laughed and patted his cheek before exiting the room.

Xena approached Ares grinning. "I think they've finally found a job suitable for you. Oh, how proud of you I am…Daddy." She gloatingly laughed and popped a grape in her mouth as he sneered back at her in response to her comment.

"Well, everyone is here. Where's Aphie?" Blaise asked, entering Zeus' chamber.

"Right here. What's going on?" Aphrodite asked confused as she entered the room with Artemis and Cupid.

Blaise turned around to face her as Zeus and Hera stood behind the new God of War. "Hi Aphie. Aah…we have some very happy news for you. It may be difficult for you to hear this, but you must. I promise you will be very happy with the outcome." Blaise attempted to explain, placing her hands on Aphrodite's shoulders staring her in the eye.

"What are you talking about Blaise?" She asked confused and looked past her to her father Zeus, who looked away before she turned back to Blaise.

"Well, Aphie." Blaise began and eyed Cupid who stood behind his mother. He moved closer to her as Blaise continued. "You had twin daughters many years ago and they were taken from you to live amongst the mortals."

"What? That's ridiculous Blaise. I think I would have known it if I had children darling." Aphrodite condescendingly laughed and shrugged her shoulders.

"Yes, that's true if your memory hadn't have been erased." Blaise answered as Cupid put a comforting hand on her back.

She was confused and wasn't sure if this was some sort of a joke or what it was. She looked at Cupid then back to Blaise, noting the seriousness in both of their faces. "This just can't be." Aphrodite answered in disbelief.

"It's true Aphrodite." Artemis confirmed and stepped beside her sister who looked at her. "You came to me after having an affair with Hades and asked if I would keep a watchful eye out for your daughters as you were fearful that Hephaestus would do something drastic and he did. Isn't that right father? Hera?" Artemis clenched her jaw, angry with the both of them and with herself for not telling Aphrodite sooner.

Zeus cleared his throat and looked up. "Yes, that's correct." He answered and stepped forward as Blaise moved to the side, holding Aphrodite's hand. "He came to us and asked that something be done about this problem and we agreed to help him. Hera had the children sent to live with mortals and I erased your memory of the event. You should be happy I didn't have the children killed." He coldly explained.

"You would have if I wouldn't have interfered Zeus." Hera answered and stepped next to her husband.

Blaise's fowl gaze turned towards her grandfather and she saw this once beloved man in a new light. She wasn't so enamored with him as she had always been. Her view of her family had taken a dramatic turn for the worse. "Why would you do this to me father?" Aphrodite asked, as she began to cry.

"I was sick of your indiscretions quite frankly and it was an embarrassment to the Olympian Gods." He coldly answered and exited the room, sick of the questioning.

Aphrodite cried harder and couldn't believe what she had heard. She had twin daughters and they had been kept from her. Blaise engulfed her in a hug, as did Cupid. "Aphrodite, I must apologize for my involvement in this matter, but I'm glad that I gave the children to mortals as my husband would have had them killed. You still have a chance to be a part of your daughter's lives." Hera sincerely replied as she exited the room.

"I need to find my children Blaise. Where are they Artemis?" Aphrodite asked through her tears.

Artemis smiled and answered, "They are very close Aphrodite."

"Aphie, your twin daughters are Ephiny and Gabrielle." Blaise answered, smiling as Aphrodite turned to her.

"Ephiny and Gabrielle are my children?" She asked surprised and smiled.

"Aphrodite, I made a promise to you once to make sure they were looked after and I made sure that their destinies lie together. So, I made sure that their destinies were to be fulfilled as Amazon Queen and Regent once they were old enough to assume their positions." Artemis explained with a warm smile.

"Thank you." Aphrodite gratefully smiled as she looked at her sister.

"Don't. I should have told you this sooner. I'm sorry." Artemis regretfully answered and hugged her sister. "They are fine young women and have both assumed their destinies finely. You should be proud." Artemis smiled and exited the room.

"Wow…I have daughters and they are Ephiny and Gabrielle. That's wild!" She chuckled excitedly.

"Very cool Mom. What's even better is that you are already quite friendly with them." Cupid answered with a smile.

"Oh, man. I hope they will like me as a mom. This is all totally weird for me to comprehend." Aphrodite tearfully laughed. She couldn't wait to form a stronger bond with her daughters. "I need to see them." She exclaimed and began to walk away.

"Wait Aphie!" Blaise stopped her as she turned to her. "They don't know anything yet and we thought it would be great to announce it in front of the family." Blaise explained.

"I spoke with Hepheastus and he won't be there, but Hades will." Cupid informed his excited mother.

"I need to tell them and to apologize for my indiscretions and for not being a part of their lives. It's a shameful thing that I did, but damn…do I have a weakness for good looking men!" She answered with a laugh as Cupid and Blaise snickered, following her out of the room.

The trio entered the dinning room as the other gods had already arrived and were sitting at the table. Blaise joined Ephiny who stood with her mother, Xena, Gabrielle, Joxer and the children. "It's about time you got back here." Ephiny grinned and slipped her arm around Blaise's waist.

"Missed me huh?" She cockily asked with a grin and kissed Ephiny.

"As always." She whispered and broke the kiss.

"What's up with Aphrodite looking at me that way?" Gabrielle asked, confused by the smile Aphrodite possessed as she stared at her.

"I'm not really sure." Xena answered and glanced at Blaise who winked.

"Excuse me please. I have an announcement to make." Aphrodite replied, smiling as the group hushed to a silence. "Hades, can you please join me?" She asked and looked at her former lover who moved next to her confused by what she was doing. "I must confess to all of you that Hades and I had an affair a long time ago." She admitted, as everyone was flabbergasted, including Hades who didn't expect that revelation to come about.

"What are you doing?" He angrily asked, through his clenched teeth.

"I told you that bitch couldn't keep her legs closed for long." Discord whispered to Strife as they chuckled from the comment.

"I'm sorry, I must do this. Just bear with me." She answered and turned back to the stunned crowd. "From this union with Hades we produced twin daughters." She continued to explain as Hades leaned closer to her.

"We did?" He asked surprised.

"Yes," she whispered back with a snicker. "They were given to mortals by Hera just after their births of which I knew nothing about as Zeus erased my memory of that wonderful event. Zeus felt that my indiscretions with Hades were an embarrassment to our family and I apologize to you for that. However, I don't regret producing two beautiful, strong and wonderful women that I can't wait to get to know better." She adoringly smiled and looked towards Gabrielle and Ephiny. She approached the group where her daughter's stood. "My twins are Gabrielle and Ephiny." She smiled and stood before them.

Gabrielle and Ephiny were shocked and looked at each other in disbelief. Ephiny moved away from Blaise when Gabrielle engulfed her in a hug. "This is wonderful! We are blood sisters!" She enthusiastically replied, smiling happily.

"Yeah, sisters." Ephiny answered, surprised by the revelation. She wasn't sure why, but she didn't like the revelation that Aphrodite made.

"This is so unbelievable." Gabrielle exclaimed and hugged Aphrodite.

"You could say that again." Ephiny replied, her tone low and condescending.

"Unbelievable…what a coincidence that Ephiny and I are twins and Amazons." Gabrielle laughed excitedly.

"That is no coincidence Gabrielle." Artemis informed her, stepping next to Aphrodite and smiled when Gabrielle and Ephiny curtsied their patron god. "Please, there is no need for that ladies." Artemis chuckled and smiled.

"How do you mean?" Ephiny asked, confused.

"Aphrodite asked me to watch out for the two of you before she lost her memory and I saw to it that you would both rule side by side as Amazons. Gabrielle is older by a few minutes so, she became Queen and you, her Regent." Artemis explained, smiling proudly at the choice she made for them.

"Wait, I don't get this." Ephiny halted unhappy and confused by the situation, stepping next to Gabrielle and in front of her mother. "If we are children of two gods, then why don't we possess powers like gods?"

"I can answer that question." Hera replied, stepping before them. I separated you, as you're very powerful together as twins. It would have been too dangerous to have you both living amongst mortals with that power, especially if you would have realized you had it. So, I cast a spell on you as babies, stating that you will regain your godhood when you both accept into your hearts your true parents Aphrodite and Hades. The spell would have been full proof had the secret not been revealed." Hera explained and glared at Artemis, unhappy about her confession.

"Don't worry, that spell will never be broken because there is no way I will ever accept either of them as my parents!" Ephiny angrily shouted and moved past the women before her.

"Ephiny!" Blaise replied, worried by her lover's reaction to the news.

Ephiny glared at Hades as he attempted to stop her and let her walk by once he knew she wanted nothing to do with him. "Ephiny, come on." Gabrielle worriedly replied as Ephiny exited the room.

"So, the family skeleton closet gets larger and larger!" Discord sarcastically laughed joined by Strife.

"Excuse me." Blaise replied and exited the room to find Ephiny who stood at the end of the long hallway looking out the window in disbelief.

She sighed, disappointed that this supposed happy moment was not for Ephiny. She slowly moved in behind Ephiny and softly placed her hands on her shoulders.

"Did you know of this Blaise?" Ephiny angrily asked, her eyes tearing.

"Yes, but I thought this would be happy news Ephiny." Blaise regretfully answered in a soft tone.

"You thought wrong!" She angrily spat and turned to her. "Why would you think I'd be happy about being the bastard child of the goddess of sluts and the god of death? Oh, yeah I'm really happy!" She angrily shouted.

"Now, Eph." Blaise took offense to the comment she made about Aphrodite and attempted to calm her.

"Take me home! Now!" She shouted. "Now Blaise!" She demanded as Blaise placed her hands on Ephiny's shoulders and they disappeared.
