Mount Olympus
By Amanda

In the year 404 B.C. in the middle of summer, Zeus was getting athletes together from all over Greece for his annual Olympic Games, which was hosted every four years. This festival was held in Olympia to honor the god Zeus.
While in a dark cave sat the god of war Ares. "It' s not fair simply not right while dad gets a festival I get a cave, a sad and droopy cave." In the doorway he saw a light.
"Hello brother," said the voice.
"Demeter is that you?" Ares says.
"No guess again."
"Apollo,Aphrodite, Artemis, Athena, Dionysus, Hera ,Zeus, Hermes, or Poseidon. Are any of those you?"
" No,"screams the voice, "it is me Hephaestus. Why don't we ruin it?"
"Na," says Ares, "I got a better idea. You ready?"
"Just say it!" screamed Hephaestus.
"Why don't we ruin it?" Ares finally said in a squeaky yet delicate voice.
"Okay," said Hephaestus, god of fire, "just cause I thought of it first."
Back in Olympia Athena was helping Zeus get ready. "Oh dad this will be great, oh so great. Oh yeah, Aphrodite said Hephaestus had something to tell you!" Aphrodite comes running in and says that Ares is starting a war right now. Zeus runs out with a bolt of lighting and throws it in the air. It makes a big bang and comes down hitting Ares in the head.
"You trader!" Ares says coming towards Hephaestus. All of the sudden Aphrodite, goddess of love and beauty, kicks him.
Four years later they continue the great festival with temples and arenas built in fields. As Ares cleaned the 40-foot gold and ivory statue of Zeus, he watched and watched. When the festival was over he cleaned up the whole mess and never thought of doing that again...............Well almost!
