I stepped into the luke warm water, sand sifting through my toes. Starfish clung onto the rocks in the water desperately as the tide started to go down, and their little pink bodies were exposed to the harsh summer light.
The wind whistled through my dress playfully, and tugged at my long blonde hair that flowed freely down to my waist. This was where I belonged; alone on the beach in the moddle of summer, where nobody could disturb me. But I knew it would never last.
The clouds above me started to darken, lightning crackling through the once open blue sky. I tilted my head to get a better view, and watched silently as a man descended from the storm clouds. "What are you doing here?" I demanded in a harsh voice.
"Some things are better left unsaid," Zeus said in an emotionless voice. "But do know one thing; I will be back in eight months time, to take something precious of yours. You cannot hide."
I knew better than to talk back to the Gods and Goddesses, so instead I clenched my teeth and curled my hands into fists angrily. I knew what he was talking about, and there was no way I'd let him take them.
Not over my dead body.
I scowled at him, and he only chuckled softly in return. "Sarah, I thought you would have lightened up a little. After all, I am your-"
I cut him off in a sudden fit of rage. "You are nothing to me any more! I want nothing from you, Zeus, so you shall not take him."
"A deal is a deal, Sarah." He chided. "I give your husband safe flight, even though I was to crash the plane, and you give me your first child."
I growl rumbled in my chest, and my nails started to bite into the palm of my hand. "Fine," I snapped, "But mark my words, Zeus. You will regret what you've taken from me. That boy is not any regular boy."
I spun around, and raced into the forest behind me. Midstride I exploded into a werewolf with m*censored*ive wings growing out of my back and vampire fangs extanded over my lower jaw.
As I disappeared from sight, Zeus watched me with a worried expression. "A werevangel boy raised by the Gods..." he sighed. "This could prove a problem."

I yawned, blinking as the light blinded me for a moment; I'd just gotten out of bed and I felt disoriented and akward.
I stumbled to my night dresser, where a picture of my parents sat. My mother, Sarah, had died during childbirth, and my father, Jacob, had killed himself soon after. I lived with my grandmother, Leah.
I yawmed again, and started down the stairs, into the kitchen and towards the fridge. Gramma Leah walked up behind me, a peculiar man standing behind her. I smiled sheepishly. "Hi?"
"You're coming with me," the man said. He had a long white beard and eyes that seemed to reflect lightning. "I've been waiting for this day for a while, Joshua."
I blinked, taking a step away from him. "What?" I said quietly. "What's going on?"
Gramma Leah patted my arm with a pittying expression and said softly, "Some things are better left unsaid."

Right, so, Joshua is taken to a special place called The Dementor caves. More children are there; children who were taken by the Gods and Goddesses because their parents made a deal. Some are immortals, some are not. Some are even Demi-Gods.
