Goddesses of Six

Istus, goddess of fate, destiny, divination, future and honesty

She woke up sweating with the nightmare fresh in her mind. Tears were slipping down her cheeks as she realized it wasn’t just a nightmare but it was truth. Her sister was dead and there was no way to bring her back. They killed her because they believed that her sister was her. Her sister was her twin looked just like her and almost acted just like her. But now her best friend and sister was gone and she was crying over her once again.

But here she was heading towards a new life and a new world. Some where that she hasn’t been to in almost five years since her father’s death. She was losing her family every time she turned around. Something that she was beginning to wonder about. Why everyone else and not her? Why is she cursed to go through losing all the ones that she loves?

“Mistress Istus are you ok?” A little creature known as a house elf asked after she heard a little pop.

“Yes Ginger go back to bed.” She lied as she wiped the tears off her face.

“Mistress isn’t telling truth. She misses her sister doesn’t she?” Ginger asked as she walked towards the bed.

“You love the fact that you do not get hurt when you disobey orders don’t you?” She asked her as she pulled her knees under her chin.

“”Ginger does what she fits for the well being of her mistress.” Ginger said as she laid her hand on her leg.

“I just don’t get it Ginger. I just don’t get what is so special about me that they would want to kill me and kill my sister instead.” She whispered softly.

“Ginger knows that mistress is special. Mistress before her told me how special mistress is.” The elf said slowly.

Istus looked at her surprised and then smiled softly. “My mother was always fond of you.”

“As Ginger was fond of mistress too.” Ginger said to her as she pulled herself onto the bed and sat down beside her.

“What did my mother tell you about me?” She asked her softly.

Ginger looked at her long fingers for a moment and then sighed. “Ginger was told not to tell unless asked and now that you asked it must be told. For Ginger agreed to tell when asked.”

“You are trying to avoid telling me for a few moments.” She said to her surprised.

“Ginger fears for her mistress’s life. She fears that Ginger will die after mistress for then she will have no one to serve.” She said to her.

“No you will be freed and you will be able to go home.” Istus said to her.

Ginger sighed and looked at her with her large pink eyes. “Mistress is a living goddess. Your father and mother we asked for one of their children for a goddess’s body was killed and they needed a replacement that was as beautiful and smart as the first one was. You were chosen because you were the youngest. Five minutes younger then your sister Isabel. They only agreed to it because the god said that you shall live here in the magical world for no one would know to look for you here. So they allowed you to be used.”

Istus sat there shocked and sadden. She wasn’t who she was born as. She was a goddess and no one ever told her. Why would no one tell her why she wasn’t allowed to go to school to become a witch or why she wasn’t allowed to go our by herself. This was something that she really needed to know and no one told her. No one allowed her to live as she truly was.

Tears slipped down her face as she looked into those pink eyes. “Ginger has made Mistress cry. Ginger should be punished.”

“No you didn’t make me cry Ginger. My family made me cry.” She said softly.

“Do you know what goddess I am?” Istus asked her.

“You are the goddess of fate, destiny, divination, future and honesty. That is what your name means too.” She said softly.

“No wonder they are trying to kill me. If I die all the fates that should happen die with me too. There will be no destinies or futures as how they should be. Everyone will be able to write their own way in the world.” She said suddenly.

Ginger smiled and then clapped her hands. “You are beginning to remember. This is very good. Very good indeed. Now we must get you packed for you are going to Hogwarts.”

“Wait a minute here! Who is the mistress?” She asked her.

“Your safety is more important then who tells who what to do at this moment. I was told once you start to remember then you must got to the safest place in the worlds. And that is where you are going.” Ginger said to her.

Wee Jas, goddess of magic, death, vanity and law

She knew they were still after her. She could hear them behind her as she ran as fast as she could. As she came upon the gates to her home she knew that they would kill her just like they had the rest of her family. Just like they have so many others. But they will not get her. She wouldn’t allow it then and she won’t allow it now.
“Wee Jas! She knew that voice but she couldn’t stop. She couldn’t allow them to know that they had missed one of her family. So she raced passed the gates to her home and down the street. It was time to get the hell out of America.

Suddenly there were five pops in front if her and she stopped before she ran headlong into a tall man with long black hair. “Do not be afraid we are here to save you.”

“I will save myself.” She hissed as she tried to go around them. But the woman with pink hair grabbed her.

“Do not fight against for we are on your side. No more harm will come to you.” She said softly.

Wee Jas sighed softly as she went limped in the woman’s arms. Then she felt a strange pull at her navel before she felt like she was about to get sick. Then her feet left the earth and then she landed on her knees. “Talk about weak!”

She glared up at the black haired man and growled. “You try running for a few months with nothing but water and see how weak you are going to be asshole.”

“I like her.” The Pink haired lady said from behind her.

“You would now wouldn’t you Tonks?” He snapped at her before she wasn’t in Florida anymore.

“Where am I?” She asked softly.

“You my dear child are at Hogwarts the school for witches and wizards. And you are quite safe here. There is no more need to run.” A kind old man said as he walked in front of her.

“But WHERE am I?” She asked him.

“Why you are in Scotland.” He said with a soft smile.

Her eyes rolled back into her head and she landed on her face before anyone could grab her. Tonks rushed to her side and turned her over. When she blinked Tonks looked down at her. “You don’t know anything about magic do you?”

“That is where you are wrong Tonks. I know a lot about magic. I was just never allowed to do it. My mom didn’t want e in this world. She knew that it wasn’t safe. She has no idea how right she was.” Wee Jas said to her as she slowly sat up.

“Now isn’t that surprising the Goddess of magic not allowed to practice her craft? Who would have thought that could ever happen.” The black haired guys said with a sneer.

Her head whipped around to lock eyes with him. “What the fuck do you mean Goddess of Magic?”

“Serevus I asked you not to say anything. She knows nothing about who she really is just like the others.” The old man said to him.

“I’m sorry.” He said with a blank look on his face.

“Will someone tell me what the hell happened to me and when will I be waking up from this freak show?” Wee Jas asked them.

“This is no freak show as you put it. Everything that you were just told is very true. You are the goddess of magic, death, vanity and law. It is what your name means. I will explain more when we get you settled. I see you haven’t slept in many nights. And you need the sleep to be able to understand all of this.” The old man said to her.

“Who are you and where is the Camera?” She hissed at him.

“My name is Albus Dumbledore and there is no Camera. I am not joking about this.” He said to her.

Her eyes went wide at his name and then she stood up and backed away. “I know of you. I know of how powerful you really are. I know how powerful all or you are.”

“It is all coming back now.” He whispered to her.

VENUS Goddess of Beauty and Love

BELLONA Goddess of War

Too many men around and too many of them looking at me, she thought as she rushed through the people on the streets. Little did she know that the ones that were watching her were there for her? Some wanted to protect her and some wanted to she her dead. But the one thing she didn’t count on was running straight into another woman and knocking her to the ground along with herself. It looked like they were both in a hurry. They looked at each other and nodded. There was something about the other that called sister to them. “I know you but I don’t.” The one she knocked down said to her.

“I feel the same way.” She said as they both stood up.

“My name is Venus.” She said as she stuck her hand out.

“I am called Bellona.” The other said as she took her hand.

Suddenly like a movie they both saw things that they knew but didn’t’ know that they knew. “We are sisters.”

Venus looked at her and nodded. “Yes sister.”

“Come with us or you die.” A man said as a group of people in robes and hoods surrounded them.

Bellona looked at him and just laughed. Venus on the other hand knew that she had no way to get away. “Stay beside me sister and we will get out of this together.”

Venus was grabbed from behind as was Bellona as the others around them tried to get them away from the ones that had them. They both felt the pull at their navels and knew that something was about to happen that shouldn’t. Sad thing was they didn’t know how they knew this or how they now knew everything that they knew.

Eirene - Goddess of peace

How could someone do this to her? She had never hurt anyone before in her life so what cause did anyone have to do this? As she looked around at the place she had once called her home and saw all the blood and bodies of her loved ones. They had killed them all. But why didn’t they stay to kill her too? Why didn’t take her life away like they did to her family.

“Child it is ok.” A voice said from behind her.

She jumped and spun around. “How can you say that is ok when all I love lies dead on the floor?”
The man that she was looking at had sandy blondish hair and deep brown eyes. There was something calming about him that she liked but the fact that he was standing there in the middle of the blood and bodies without a trace on him does nothing for her to lower her guards. “What is it that you have come here to do? Are you going to take my life too?”

“No I am here to save your life. I am here to protect you until we can get you somewhere safe.” He said to her as he took a step towards.

“Do not come near me. Stay away from me please.” She said as she backed up into the wall behind her.

“This I cannot do for you must come with me if you want to live past today.” He said to her.

“Who said I wanted to live?” She asked him as he slowly walked towards her.

“I did.” He said as he grabbed her hand and pulled her face first into his chest. A moment later she felt a pull at her navel and got dizzy as everything around her seem to spin and then suddenly stop. But when it stopped they were no longer in her home in the living room. They were out in the night air before a set of beautiful gates and castle.

“I’m sorry you cannot see how beautiful the castle is that you will be staying until you arrive. But believe me it is breath taking.” He said as the gates started to open.

“You are right the castle is very beautiful but sadly I am not able to grasp how beautiful it really is right now.” She whispered softly.

He didn’t know how to take that. They thought that she was a muggle child offered up for a soul of a goddess. But now that he knew that she could see the castle he ken that there was more to her then ever met the eyes. “Ah Lupin I see that you have arrived with Eirene.”

A old man appeared right before their eyes and she almost screamed out loud. “I am sorry dear I didn’t mean to scare you. I know that you have gone through so much as have the others.”

“Others what do you mean others?” She asked him.

“I mean dear child that you are not the only one that has lost all of the ones that you love. There are five more that have also. Though the last has not arrived yet. I believe that Sirius should be arriving with her at any moment.” He said to her.

“Why am I here?” She asked him.

“Why dear you must know. You are here because you and five others are being hunted because you are goddesses. You my child are the goddess of peace.” He said to her right before she fainted in Lupin’s arms.


*********************************
Vara, goddess of nightmares and fear
Now they were beginning to piss her off. They think that she was afraid of them. She feared nothing for as long as she could remember and no one would start making her fear anything now. As they circled her laughing she listened to them and knew that they had pain and death in their hearts and she didn’t know how she knew this but she could feel it in their hearts.

“Now how should we make you scream?” A man whispered as he walked around her.

“No one can make me scream.” She growled at him.

“Well I believe that I can make you scream.” He growled before she felt a blow hit her in her stomach.

She stood still like it didn’t even faze her and glared at him. “Is that the best you got?”
He growled and punched at her face. She grabbed his arm and twisted as she moved and twisted it up behind his back. Then she wrapped her other arm around his neck and started to put pressure on both of them at the same time. He screamed out in pain and she laughed. “That is how you make someone scream. Now tell them to lower their wands or they can take your body back along with mine.”

“You do not mean that.” He hissed.

“I smell the fear on you and I know that you are the one scared not me. You try to hide it but I smell it through all the bullshit that you threw up in it’s path.” She whispered in his ear right before she saw a black dog rush at the ones that were standing in front of her. She could tell that the dog wasn’t really a dog but a person who was in his animal form. “Tell them to lower their wands now.”

With the now she pulled up on his arm as she put more pressure on his throat. He screamed out, “Put your wands down now!”

They listened to him and she removed her arm from around his throat. Then she waved her hand and all their wands flew into her hand. “Let this be a warning. I will see you all again and next time you all will die not me.”

She whispered a few words into his ear and he fell down asleep. Then she dashed off with the black dog following her into the woods. When she knew that they wouldn’t be able to find her she stopped and waited for the dog to catch up. As she sat down she felt all the pain that was in her side come back with full force. Then she doubled over in pain as she allowed herself to feel the pain from his punch. “My, you are full of surprises now aren’t you?”

“As are you mutt.” She hissed out in pain.

“Now that was just mean. I wasn’t trying to be mean to you. I have never seen someone that was able to block all pain until after it happens so they can deal with it alone.” He said as he sat down in front of her.

“Let me guess time to go to Hogwarts huh?” She asked with a hiss.

“Yes how did you know?” He asked her.

“Unlike the others I was told who I was before my family was killed. They warned me that they might get killed and if they do then go to Hogwarts.” She growled as she tried to black the pain once more.

“So you know you are the goddess of nightmares and fear? And you aren’t mad about it?” He asked her.

“No I wasn’t mad. I don’t know what fear feels like. I just know that the men that were just standing in front of me fear someone and this time it isn’t me.” She said as the pain vanished.
