Starring

Horror Movie
It was around seven in the evening that night. Ares came home after shopping for horror DVDs. "I'm home! I've brought good movies to watch!", he yelled at the empty hallway of Olympus. He walked to his room which is on the third floor of the house. The room is dark and is only lit by a red lamp by the end table of his bed. There's a big flat-screen television in the corner that is placed on top of a small cabinet. He opened the cabinet which was filled with DVDs and placed the package there. He closed it and sat down, thinking of whom he should invite to watch a movie with him. "Ah! Hehehehe...I'll call on those scaredy cats to watch with me.", he said with a creepy laugh to match.

He went to Artemis' archery range. Well spotted, he thought as Artemis can always be found shooting arrows at night since she felt more active since the moon is up in the sky.

"Hey, Artemis, wanna watch a horror movie with me?", he asked her.

Artemis stopped shooting and dropped her bow and arrows. "What?! But you know that I don't like those kinds of movies! They're gruesome! Full of blood and gore! I don't like those!", she reasoned.

Ares folded his arms. "Then why didn't you screamed 'gruesome' or 'yuck' when you hunt down animals?", he asked her.

"That's another story! Horror movies are beyond on what I see when I hunt, y'know!", Artemis replied.

"Come on, stop reasoning and just join me. It'll be fun. I promise.", Ares replied.

"Fun for YOU, that's for sure!", Artemis replied back.

Ares shook his head. "Tsk..tsk.. Artemis, if asking is hard, then I should do it, the hard way.", he said. He lunged forward and grabbed Artemis by the arms. "Sorry, but got to do!", Ares said as he tightened his hold on Artemis.

Artemis screamed a bit. "Ahh! Don't, Ares! Don't you dare scare me to death!", she said to him.

Then from the ground rumbled a voice. It was Hades sitting beside Persephone, Demeter's daughter. "Death? Did someone said death? Oh, who's going to die there? Come on, come at me bro!", he yelled with delight as he will have a new guest in the Underworld.

Artemis frowned and said on the ground, towards Hades, "Oh I'm the one who's going to die out of fright because of Ares!".

Hades replied with his face sad, "Is that you Artemis? If so, you wouldn't die! You're immortal! Gosh, I thought someone was going to die.".

Artemis said, "Oh yeah. Forgot about that.".

Ares laughed. "Gee, how dumb can you get?", he said.

Artemis kicked him in the knee. "Oh just shut up, Ares! And release me!", she yelled.

Ares began to drag her towards his room. Artemis couldn't do anything as Ares' hold was too tight. Ares put Artemis inside his room and locked her from the outside. "I'm going to call your twin and the others, Artemis. Don't you dare touch anything there.", he said through the door. Then he left his room to look for Apollo.

Artemis banged the door. "Ares! Let me out of here! Ares!", she screamed. But for some reason, she felt that Ares has concern for her since he said not to touch anything in his room. But just a feeling and she doubts it to be so true.
