Adventure Fantasy Thriller

These prompts are eh, but i'm still going to try and make some stories now. its 'face your fears' but i just wish it wasn't all about the apocalypse and had other things because i'm not getting a lot of ideas with these ones tbh. but i do hope that you all enjoy this and its another part with my Crossover with Kate Ulrich.


Aella watched the camp while she and Arren still rode Pegasus. "Those are.." Aella stared at the large Statues scattered about the camp; one of them was her mother, Atalanta.


"So do ya like it? Those Statues recently got added." Aella looked for the speaker. She and Arren were alone on Pegasus. If someone talked to them from the ground, she probably wouldn't hear it.


"Oh hiya Harmony!" Arren said with a small smile. He looked to Aella's right. She turned around to see Harmony flying next to them while carrying Blake.


Blake waved and pointed down below them. Meg awkwardly rode Lia, in her wolf form, to the camp. "This is uh...kinda weird don't you think?" he asked her.


"Woah! Holy crap!" Meg turned around to see three other wolves following them. Lia snickered, then howled. The wolves turned around and left.


"So, how long have you been at the camp?" Still a distance from the camp, Blake wanted to try small talk with them.


"We've all been here for almost a whole year well...except someone else.." Harmony said, Looking down, her eyes glistening with tears. It confused Aella.


No one seemed to talk for a couple of minutes, instead silently staring at each other. "What? what do you mean by someone el-" Aella tried to say.


Harmony flew over and quickly covered Aella's mouth. She pointed up ahead, her hand unsteady. "O-oh, will you look at that?? we're at the camp now!"


Pegasus landed in the camp. Aella pushed Harmony's hand off her mouth and jumped to the ground. Arren remained on Pegasus, petting the steed and mumbling, "Good horse."


"I think we need to get your friend more help. Don't you have an infirmary around here or something?" Blake asked Lia. She hesitated for a moment, like she didn't know the answer.


Meg quickly got off of her and while she was still thinking she turned back to her regular self. "Never doing that again.." Meg mumbled as he sat near the sign for Camp illusion.


Lia was about to tell him when Pegasus then starts to nudge Blake to look at something. "Huh...?" Everyone looked over to see what was going on, Eros and Psyche were there.


"What the?? where have you all been, it's nice to actually meet you but where??" Lia asked Psyche as she faintly growled. come on, where were they at this whole time? they could have helped us with a lot of things!


Eros chuckled lightly as he and Psyche walked over to them all, they had a small surprise. "Now Now Lia calm down, We have some people we want you to all meet." Psyche seemed to point back behind some of the Cabins.


"What about Arren though? we need to go take him to the Infirmary." Lia asked, which answered Blake's question about having an Infirmary. i guess that's good then..


Eros looked over at Arren on Pegasus and then looked back at Psyche. "Darling, could you go take him there? i'll take the kids to the surprise." she nodded.


When everyone got to the 'surprise' with Eros, it really was a surprise, they're parent's were there. "Hi mother" Aella and Harmony said in unison when they saw Atalanta and Iris. It wasn't really a surprise with them.


"D-dad...?" Meg gasped a little shocked and slightly backed up when he saw Hercules. He really came to visit me..? i'm nothing like him though...why would he visit me?


Hercules waved and was going to say something when Meg ran over and tightly hugged him. "W-woah! hey there champ, how have you been?" he asked with a light chuckle.


Arren sat on a bed as Psyche cleaned him up since he still had some blood on him, Pegasus was laying outside of the Infirmary with the two. "Arren? what's wrong?" Psyche then asked him.


He looked down a little as he kind of stared at his hands and went silent for a while. "What if Apollo hates me..? he isn't visiting and he never has...ill never be able to do anything..." Arren's voice was breaking.


Psyche frowned and brought him into a hug, being careful to not hurt him. "Oh honey, he doesn't hate you...it may be taking him a while but i'm sure he'll come to visit you eventually, i promise."


-a couple hour's later-


Aella, Harmony and Blake were walking around outside of the camp after having spent some times with they're parents. They wanted to just walk around but also try to figure out why that Cyclops from earlier had attacked them.


"Wait- do you hear that..?" Harmony stopped flying and kind of brought the two of them closer. They all fell silent when they began to hear a voice nearby, it sounded like Hercules.


"Lets check it out.." Aella whispered and quickly went to where they were hearing the voice, Harmony and Blake were right behind her a bit worried. Why would Hercules be out here...??


They all reached a very large cave and hid behind something, they could see Hercules and a couple of Cyclops and some other things that they couldn't tell what it was. "YOU WHAT?!" Hercules yelled.


He was talking to the same Cyclops that they had fought a couple of hours ago. "I sent you out for a simple task, and you couldn't even get rid of some kids?!"


The Cyclop's nervously looked around while messing with its hands, it seemed like that didn't even wanna be in there with Hercules. what does he mean by that?? what's he even doing?? Blake thought.


The Cyclop's tapped Hercules on the shoulder before quickly backing away right after. He REALLY didn't wanna be in a room with an angry Hercules. "Um, sir, they were really-"


Hercules glared at him and grabbed his arm a bit tightly. "Silence! It doesn't matter if you lost, i'm so close to sending that Zombie Army to the Camp."


The three of them silently gasped in shock, The Cyclop's sighed a little. "But sir, why do you even want to do that?" he then asked a bit confused.


"Because, what better way to get revenge on the Gods? I know most of them care for the demi-gods there so what if i kill them?" he laughed, The three of them looked at each other in shock and Harmony started to pull the two back to the camp.


They could hear him explaining his plan a bit more to the Cyclops though they didn't really care. They all kinda know what they had to do though, they all thought it. we have to go tell Meg...

okay, well I can give you more generic feedback if you want. Use the reedsy plot generator and just play around with the options, it really helps me. I'm also gonna give you 5 words and you can decide what you wanna do with them. Umbrella Mirror Flowers Curtain Waterbottle Here's also a sentence you can use as a prompt: "That's when it hit me. I knew I wasn't alone." Lemme know if that helps :)

First of all, your writing is improving a lot! There are some mistakes. I think the sentences can be more clear and concise. I would recommend removing a lot of adverbs, like in this sentence, "The Cyclop's tapped Hercules on the shoulder before quickly backing away right after," quickly is unnecessary. On top of that, you miss out on a lot of description, like the sentence "They all reached a very dark cave and hid behind something..." what did they hide behind? How dark was the cave, dark as...? Sorry if I sounded harsh, you've impr...

I see this has a lot of elements of Greek mythology to it, but also some character names of your own? I like the name "Atalanta". This is an interesting story, and I need to read parts one and two to get a better understanding of the backstory to this.

Harmony went over and quickly seemed to cover her mouth and pointed up ahead They're all flying, right? Aella and Arren on Pegasus and Harmony carrying Blake. Trying to put your hand over someone's mouth might be tricky in that situation. Perhaps interrupt with "Shh," and a finger to the lips. "Meg quickly got off of her and while she was still thinking she turned back to her regular self." subordinate clause "Meg quickly got off of her and, while she was still thinking, she turned back to her regular self." You can also tighten the writ...

Well not everyone was flying Meg and Lia were on the ground, but mostly everyone yeah. I'll go back real soon and edit this, I'm still thinking but maybe i'll get you or someone else to be an editor or something else for my novel, though i feel it's gonna be terrible.

Thanks for understanding. I thought about it and wondered if I sounded harsh, but I know if you use me as a crutch it will cripple your budding skills as a writer. I don't want that to happen, so I have to tell you when you're off track. As best I can.

Your not ever sounding harsh, i still don't know what was up with that person who kept doing the stuff to you.

I'm 10000000% certain, you read the webtoon "You Throne". You do, don't you? anyway, this one was pretty cool! In some you forgot to capitalize the first letter of some words and there were, you know, just minor issues like that. Nonetheless, this was really good. Keep writing!
