"Mysterious invisible moon shaped mountains, and Minotaur clones, great." Iris pressed her back against the boulder and looked at the women who watched the monster. Moments later more emerged.
“Oh fuck me!” Asa whispered. "There are more of them. Great, so now we get to deal with the backlash from more of Poseidon’s bullshit.”
“What?” Delilah asked. "What does Poseidon have to do with this?"
“The Minotaur is a result of a punishment Poseidon issued." Asa started in on the mini history lesson. "The asshole made the King of Crete’s wife fall in love with a damn bull. The curse went so far that she was so enamored with this thing that she created a fake cow's body, climbed inside of it, and banged the fucking bull. From that horrible imagery, well, the Minotaur was born. This is the hideous result of Poseidon's level of petty.”
“Wait, he forced her to procreate with a bull?” Delilah felt disgusted that such a man was her father.
“No, but he made her believe she was in love with the bull. I don't know if he ever thought she’d actually go for it!” Asa remarked, "At least I sure as hell hope that wasn't the plan."
"There was only supposed to be one right? I mean there are three there. How are there more?"
“Looks like that theory is fucked.” Asa pointed as more emerged from the hollow. "I'm guessing the old hybrid found someone to bang himself. Or, you know, gods interfering. Either way, we need to really consider our next move carefully."
"Yeah, considering how they destroyed a semi, I'm going to say they aren't the easiest to get along with." Iris turned back to the mountain to get a look at the additions.
"Looks like there are seven here," Rhea counted the bodies that emerged. "Likely more on the inside guarding her. You know, I find it highly interesting that you, Tethys was guarded by lava, Phoebe by minotaurs, and me... I had a waitress."
"Don't take it personally sister," Tethys smiled. “Perhaps it’s a compliment. You didn’t need the level of protection that we needed.”
"Right, I won't. Just saying, it's rude."
"We need to distract them while Iris goes inside. It shouldn't be too difficult to do." Tethys started to assess the area to see if there was anything else that could be used to their advantage.
“Yes. I believe that would be the best way to go about this.” Rhea nodded.
“Wait, what?” Iris' eyes bucked. "You want me to go in there, alone?"
“You’re the only one who can see it, to us it's just an empty desert with monsters appearing out of nothingness.” Rhea shrugged. "I'm not sure I see another way, but if you have one, please offer it."
“Well, great.” Iris conceded.
“I will stay by your side,” Delilah spoke up. Iris was human and would need her protection. She couldn't let her go alone. “Where you lead, I will follow.”
“Great, you know the last time I did this, it didn’t work out so well.” She looked over to Rhea who had basically left her for dead when she was awakened.
