The Lost Goddess

Her power rivaled that of ZEUS Her ultimate undoing

He wasn’t surprised when she didn’t hear him, he hadn’t spoken loud enough to drown out the music that rang through the air. It was frustrating to say the least, but he couldn’t let it bother him. After several millenia, death had built up a thick skin for things of little consequence. He noted the expression on her face, and stood strong despite her demands. “ I let myself in. ” he answered, raising an eyebrow as she held the blade in his direction. “ I mean you no harm, and the knife wouldn’t serve you either way. ” he admitted. “ Believe it or not, I’m here to save your life. ”

“Okay, but like how? That door was locked!” Despite what he said, Dove’s grip on the knife only tightened as she moved towards her phone. While she may not have know how this loon had managed to break in, she certainly wasn’t about to wait around to find out why. Especially given she had no reason to believe his claims. “I’m calling the police. You can either stay here and have them drag you off, or you can get the hell out and I’ll pretend this never happened.”

Three in the morning, three in the evening, time was hardly relevant when you had eternity to look forward to. Still, after coming into possession with the ring by less than honest means, Thanatos had wasted no time in using it to track down the lost goddess, even if that meant arriving at her home at an inopportune hour. He’d entered silently, not bothering to knock as he saw it as yet another waste of time, plus, he highly doubted she would simply let him in given the time. Regardless, he watched as she walked into the room, remaining silent as he tried to think of the best way to approach her, but when nothing came to mind, he simply decided to go with what came to him. “ I hate to interrupt, but we have to talk. ”

With the music playing as loudly as it was, it shouldn’t have come as a shock that his words went unheard. It wasn’t until she finally pulled back from the refrigerator and her eyes landed on the strange man that his presence became known. Eyes went wide and a harsh yelp tore from the girl, the carton of juice hitting her floor and making an immediate mess. “How the fuck did you get in here?!” Dove demanded, reaching for one of the kitchen knives and holding the blade towards him. A bluff, but one she hoped would be bought.

It was around three am when Dove final pulled herself from bed, having just finished a full day of bingeing the first and second seasons of iZombie on Netflix. She carefully shut her laptop, setting it on her desk as she tucked her phone into the waistband of her pajama shorts. Little Mix blared at top volume from the device on her hip as she skipped through the small apartment, singing along at the top of her lungs as she danced her way to the kitchen. Coming around the corner, Dove set her phone on counter and began rummaging through the refrigerator, completely oblivious to the man in the room.

“No, I know you are a goddess who has died a bunch of times.” he explained, watching her curiously as she started to laugh again, and her smart remark before she went to crash. He quickly moved to catch her before she could hit the ground, moving her to the couch with a sigh. This was going to be more difficult than he had thought.

It had to have been at least a couple of hours before Dove came to, head still spinning a bit as her eyes blinked open. “Fuck, you’re real,” she groaned when her gaze fell on the strange man who claimed to be Death itself. “I was really hoping you were just some pretty thing my brain cooked up.” A sigh. “Do some magic or something and I’ll believe you. I may pass out again, and either way I’ll need a drink, but I’ll believe you.”

“I’m sorry you feel that way, but I do not control your feelings.” Thanatos replied dryly, not sure how he could make the woman trust him, especially given her reaction to his admission. “I might believe that if the ring hadn’t brought me right to you. As for not knowing Odessa, that’s simply because she, well, you died long before the mortals recorded our history, and you were simply erased from it and existence all together. Or, so we thought.”

“Right, so you think I’m some goddess who’s died a bunch of times.” Another bout of hysterical giggling escaped her. “And you’re supposed to be Death, who’s saving me from mine.” Even more laughter. And then she was collapsing, the world fading out around her.

“What would I possibly have to gain from threatening you?” the man asked perplexed, raising an eyebrow. He made no move at her request, simply waiting for her to speak, deciding to get straight to the point. “You’re a goddess, or you were, and I’m going to help you live to see your full potential Odessa.”

“It feels like I’m being threatened,” she mumbled bitterly, arms crossing over her chest. What she hadn’t been expecting, was his explanation of what he was doing in her apartment. Evidenced by the near hysterical laughter falling from her lips. “Clearly you have the wrong girl. My name is Dove, and I don’t know any Odessa.”

“Again.” was all that the deity offered in terms of confirmation. “We have actually, not in this life, but at the end of all the others.” he offered, realizing just how cryptic he may seem as she was clearly confused. “If you didn’t believe me, at least partially, I think you would have picked up the phone and called the police by now.” he argued, looking her in the eye. “I am Thanatos, and you my dear, are no mere human, though you will die like one if you don’t let me help you.”

“So you’re threatening me now?!” Of course that’s how she viewed his warning. The way her heart was pounding in her chest, it was all too much to even hear a single thought running through her head. “Can you please just...stop?” Dove set the knife down, knowing it would likely damage her clumsy self more than him. “Just be straight forward, please!”

“I have a lot of different names, though I prefer Thanatos above the others. You might know me as Death, or The Reaper.” he explained, his eyes examining the goddess. “And I’m here to save you, so you and I don’t meet under unfortunate circumstances yet again.”

“Again?” It was the first word she latched onto, as it had somehow managed to stick out above the rest. “You and I have never met,” Dove argued, confusion growing as his other claims set in. “You’re insane. Thanatos isn’t real! He’s just some myth! A story!”

“ I don’t use doors, not most of the time anyway. ” Thanatos mused as he stepped toward her, in a cautious and calculated fashion. He moved to take the phone, faster than any man could have dreamed to be. He glanced at the screen for a moment, moving to silence it before looking up at the terrified woman in front of him, gingerly setting the phone down in it’s previous position. “ I would prefer to talk to you in your own home, but if you must call the police, do so. Though, I believe if you told them about me they might question your sanity, which would only make this more difficult.”

“Weird,” Dove couldn’t help but mumble, eyes carefully watching his movements. His speed alone was shocking, but it did tell her that if he wanted her dead, she likely wouldn’t be able to stop him. The least she could do was let him say his piece and hopefully buy herself some time to think of something. She swallowed hard. “Fine, but I’m going to hold onto this,” she finally conceded, giving the kitchen knife a small wave. “Start with who you are and what you want from me.”
