Justify the Means
Complete!
~*~!~*~I can't believe it, I murmured to myself, walking around the Warriors' Closet. History at my side... I stretched out a hand to touch Achille's shield before taking it back sharply. No touching. I scurried away guiltily to look at Odysseus's armor. Though rusty, it still sparkled like new.
It was amazing, but I was lonely.

[/color] As I took a step forward I was in utter shock… It was amazing. Though I have never cared for war I’d like to hold some power and take control of what I need to... Instead of my father controlling me as he does.
I looked around and went up to many of the exhibits… I wasn’t exactly social… Not in deep thought times like this. I noticed no one around me… Instantly she wondered if they had found something of her favourite goddess, Persephone here. |

Looking around the closet, I longed to turn into Aphrodite again. Anything there from my past? Necklaces, gems, robes? There was a crown that belonged to my sister Persephone, dark and embedded with amethysts. Suddenly, I bumped into someone.
My bad! I squealed. After I gazed into her eyes, I smiled. You look just like my sister. |

“Perhaps… I am?” I said laughing… It was always fun to creep people out… My eyes darted around… The Goddess Persephone had a crown that she left in the fields before she was taken from her mother. My eyes darted around for it… Nothing particular stood out… Until I found what I was looking for.
A crown sitting on a purple pillow, rusted and tainted silver… With dark, dark purple stones… What I would give to have that on my head… I mean it was the Underworld… But hey you’d be Queen of something would you not?

Maybe, TareBear replied with her own small chuckle. She walked towards the crown and looked at it. Persephone, Queen of the Underworld. She smiled, longing to touch it. It was beautiful. Isn't this amazing? she asked. Oh, I'm Tara Gomez. She stretched her hand out. You can call me TareBear. |

“Whose you favourite then?” I asked carelessly. My eyes were caught instantly… It’s like I own this crown… Well maybe I owned it once… Who knows what I did in my past life? “Persephone, Queen of the Underworld,” I repeated, “Was one of the great rulers of Greece… Horror struck her and she rebounded. She’s amazing!” I loved talking about her… Imagine being taken from your mother like that? And by your fathers call also not to mention to your fathers brother!
“Cora, meaning young maiden and LaMar after a famous Shakespeare editor. Cora LaMar… TareBear. ” I laughed at her nickname. “Call me Cora or Kore.” I smiled at her.

My favorite... Tara didn't have to think twice. Aphrodite. I don't know. But I feel like she's closer than you think in this room. Maybe it's the items? She longed to stroke a finger down her own cerulean robe. It looked beautiful lying on the red, velvet bench. The bench that was extremely off limits to sit on. She sighed and smiled.
Cora, that's a nice name. Origionally, I was going to be named Selena, meaning Moon Goddess in Spanish or some country my mother hasn't told me about. [/blockquote] |

Yesenia walked into the warriors closet, for some reason she felt like she needed to be there...there really was no reason to it but she did, like it was the right thing to do. She seriously doubted it but she was always one to do what her heart told her to do...always. She walked in seeing two other girls, being around them seemed familiar yet she had no idea who they were. She gave them a polite smile and nod before looking at some Hera artifacts, she had always been drawn to them...it was almost like they were a part of her in a way...that was what brought her back everyday. Cora, that's a nice name. Origionally, I was going to be named Selena, meaning Moon Goddess in Spanish or some country my mother hasn't told me about.she had to laugh when she heard that "Selena does mean moon goddess in Spanish, originally it was Selene but it's the Latin version of Selene, who can be associated with the Greek Goddess Artemis..." She said, she knew that she probably sounded like a know it all but she had to point out the facts. "It's better than having your name come from a tree somewhere in Africa." She added on with a smile "I'm Yesenia Perez by the way, but you can call me Yesi or Senia if you want ." she said shortly and smiling at the other two, what was it about them that made her feel actually safe around them?

TareBear jumped when she heard a second voice. Selena does mean moon goddess in Spanish, originally it was Selene but it's the Latin version of Selene, who can be associated with the Greek Goddess Artemis... She faced the girl. Oh, thanks! she said, smiling. It's better than having your name come from a tree somewhere in Africa. the girl added. How so? TareBear asked. I'm Yesenia Perez by the way, but you can call me Yesi or Senia if you want. the girl said. Why? TareBear asked. Is Yesenia a tree? She realized how lame she was, but curiosity always took over her. |

Aphrodite. I don't know. But I feel like she's closer than you think in this room. Maybe it's the items?
I laughed at the thought. “Perhaps… But I think I feel a more sentimental value towards them… Like spiritual almost.”
I had to clue what this Yesi girl had said about TareBears name… I just spaced out for a second.
I'm Yesenia Perez by the way, but you can call me Yesi or Senia if you want.
Duh-what? I stuttered in thought. Finally realizing that this girl was talking to us.

How so?Why?Is Yesenia a tree? She smiled and nodded "Well it's really Jessenia that's a tree but the pronunciation and spelling was changed, just like Selene." She responded, thinking of what her parents had told her about the names and different meanings to them...it was all much too confusing to actually keep up with she thought to herself before smiling at the other two girls once more.
