Despite all precautions, their worst fears are realized when they are assassinated. In their wake secrets are revealed and the danger they did their best to prevent become terrifyingly clear. As rumors about their mother goddess being angry with their world and whispers of a long-time grudge grows into fruition, Athena realizes a shocking truth-- her parents, both a seer and a diviner, were not only powerful but were also important to maintaining the fragile peace that held back an impending apocalypse.

The Betrayer

Athena walked out of the church before walking towards the direction of the villa she lived in, glancing at the sky she guessed it was almost six am, she walked faster to avoid meeting cars or anyone on the way. 

The gate to the villa was shut and looking at the height she wondered how she so easily jumped over it, she climbed over it and then jumped to the ground, while grunting and clutching her shoulder she checked her surroundings, that was when she noticed the litters of bodies both assassins and bodyguards, looking at the amount of dead bodies she wondered who would send dozens of assassins to her family, her eyes barely had any emotions towards the litters of bodies. 

Walking inside the villa she saw more bodies consisting of the maids and more assassins and bodyguards, she walked toward the console table by the door, before taking out bullets from a hidden compartment, she reloaded the pistol before she moved cautiously inside the house, she checked the living room, the kitchen and the storage area before moving up the flight of stairs walking into each bedroom before stopping at her parents room, she walked in trying to hold back tears, standing Infront of her parents bed she paid her respects before she schooled her expression and shutting off her emotions, she glanced at the closet before walking in. 

The closet looked like any other walk-in closet, big and spacious and really grand, it looked relatively normal, any other person in there would not suspect a thing except Athena, she glanced at a wardrobe that held designer bags and clothes and the other wardrobe that was fairly open she noticed it had a few shoes on the lower shelf, bingo she thought. Her mom never kept shoes in wardrobe or cabinets that had wood doors, and it was the only wardrobe that looked slightly out of place, because the wardrobe door had been open and one of the hinges had come off and knowing how her mom OCD worked, that door should have been shut. She walked towards it before holding the handlebar and putting her thumb on top of the handlebar. 

The wooden wall in the wardrobe slid open before a safe appeared in her sight, she smirked before shaking her head, she carried the safe out then the wooden wall closed, she shut the door of the wardrobe and then carried the safe out the closet and out of her parents' room, with one arm shutting both doors. Taking it upstairs towards her room, the safe naturally was heavy that it required at least four men to lift it up but who said Athena was normal. When she got to her room, she placed her right palm on the door before it clicked open, walking in she shut the door and walked toward her study/closet, her room didn't look like a regular teenager's room, the color scheme of her room was dark, there was a line of computers flashing and beeping at the side, the other side had guns either dissembled or assembled and grenades prepped on a table, bullets scattered everywhere on the table. Her study/closet was even more so different from her room, it was all bling and flashy with pink and purple and all colors of the rainbow in it. 

Athena opened the safe using the password her dad had ingrained in her memory, in it was a stack of documents, a small like chip, guns and gold bars even weirder was two bars of chocolate and a blue-like potion thingy in a glass vial, a white sealed envelope and a plain black ring, shutting the door of the study/closet she pressed a button beside the door and the room changed looking more like her bedroom meanwhile the bedroom outside looked like her closet/study but with less stuff than what was in it before. 

She took the stack of document before lying on her bed reading through, what she saw made her change her facial expressions multiple times, an hour passed before she finished reading the documents, she stood up with a grim expression on her face she walked towards the safe, took the chip before placing it on her palm, staring wide-eyed at it, she watched it embed itself into her skin, she nodded before taking the two chocolate bars lookalike and eating them both after that she took the glass vial and swallowed its content.

She walked towards a mirror before staring at herself, the girl in the mirror had mid-thigh length black hair with one blue and the other golden, she had a baby face and a pretty big doe eyes overall, she was very beautiful and looked innocent, not the type you'll think could kill also she was 5ft 5 tall.

Athena glanced at herself not noticing any change in her features she walked away from the mirror before walking toward the lineup of computers she sat on the sit facing the computers before she typed a bunch of codes on the keyboard, swiveling the chair to the left she glanced at the live cctv footage playing, watching the footage she saw the housekeeper walking in the house, she smirked and then stood up, grabbed the pistol on her bed before walking out the room and walking towards the direction the housekeeper was in. 

On Atherena, the tech is more advanced when it comes to housing and computers...yh
