Match On Mt Olympus Backyardigans Novels & Stories

I quickly get the shirt on and head out to the backyard where the party is in full swing. We have so many things for the kids to do, as well as the adults. I must say I outdid myself with Onyx’s party. I am standing at the top of the steps to walk into the backyard, and I am hit with my mate’s mouthwatering smell. Before I can turn, he places a hand on my back, and I hear Onyx giggle. “Mama, Spidey Spidey” Onyx shouts out. “Yes, my beautiful boy this is all for you! Happy Birthday Onyx”

The creature beneath the earth answered with another laugh. And suddenly— something moved behind us. Not beneath us. Behind us. A figure. Standing at the edge of the clearing. Watching. My heart stopped. Golden eyes. Dark braided hair. Exactly like the woman from the memories. Exactly like the Last Guardian. Exactly like me. Except she wasn't a memory. She wasn't a vision. She was standing there. Real. Physical. Impossible. The moment her gaze met mine— the bond exploded open. And she smiled. Not kindly.

I said in a calm voice, staring my mom in the eyes. For a short moment, her eyes drifted to Mia, who was shaking in my arms, from fear, her head bent low, to avoid my mother’s hard stare. But after a while, Luna exhaled and walked towards us, stopping right beside Mia. she placed a finger on her chin and lifted it up, till their eyes met.

I looked around the party hall as we entered; it was beautiful. "Welcome to our 30th mating party! Ladies and gentlemen, put on your masks! Now, may we have all the ladies come up here?" A woman, who I think was the MC, grabbed our attention. We all stood up and went to the stage. "Okay! We will be rating you on your strength and beauty to impress your mate." I just sat in my seat as I watched them participate, along with Jess, who also wasn't interested in finding another mate. The MC continued calling the names while I secured my mask on my face.

My mom is trying to trick me, I knew it! "I know mom is playing games on me." I said as I gave my dad's phone back. "Suit yourself." "They're partying until 10." God bless America. God bless America. God bless America. "You both can't fool me." "I suggest you buy advil now.. you look like you're going to faint in seconds." I looked at my dad in disbelief. "Dad!" I hissed. "Yes, Leon?" "This isn't funny, you both set me and Ivory up." I hissed coldly.

Were they still stuck in meetings? My feet were throbbing in my silver heels, and to top it off, I was bored out of my mind. I'd heard the Were’s Ball was famous for its festivities, mating ceremonies, shifting rituals, heavy drinking, even arrow-shooting contests. But so far? Nothing. Not that I particularly cared about any of those things. I was just here for Leonidas. My gaze was on my aching, reddened feet when another pair of boots stepped into view, brown leather, well-worn. I smiled, assuming it was him.

I want her to experience things more and I will do my best for her to reach her dreams because I know she's dying to finally do it. "Well, you're my friend. And you can't say no to this. Don't worry, I am always at your back. Chill and relax, okay?" I look myself in the whole body mirror and gaze at my outfit. I am wearing a crystal blue tube dress with a slit in the middle that causes my cleavage to come out a little. I am comfortable though I feel shy to wear this for the reason that Aunt Aqua sent this to me. I don't have a choice.

Through the window, I could see our classmates starting to gather in the backyard. I stepped out of Tyra’s room and found Finley waiting by the door, arms crossed. His eyes widened slightly when he saw me, but he quickly masked his reaction with a smirk. “Wow, Phoebe. You…” I swallowed. “Is it bad?” He shook his head. “No. You look incredible.” A warm flush crept up my neck. “Alright,” I mumbled. “Let’s go.” The backyard was alive with music and laughter. Tyra’s mom and her band had taken over the small stage, their sound filling the night air. I could feel eyes on me as we walked in.

“Hani! They look like humans...most of the time. They have like another more umm...ugly form.” “Which is why you should see a werewolf instead,” Margaret interjects and shakes her head. “What is the mating bureau thinking making you date a dinosaur?” I giggle. “Crocodile man.” Margaret rolls her eyes. “Whatever.” I pick up a cookie from the plate on the counter and take a bite while Margaret looks up at Jace with wide eyes. “Were you always this big? Not only do you have a handsome face, but gosh, you’re ripped!” Her hands reach up to playfully grab his bicep, and Jace gives me an uncomfortable look.

The letter requested everyone in the pack that had not been mated yet to come out the next day to the general pack house as other packs would be arriving the next morning. "We are very hopeful about this", my father said. I was too tired to speak as I picked up my bag and headed to the room. "You might finally find your mate tomorrow", my mother said with a tinge of excitement in her voice. I flashed a warm smile to her and moved to my room. No matter the situation, the idea of finding my mate always had my mom so excited.
