TWENTY-ONE:

Unknown POV:

Venus glares daggers at Jupiter.
Of course she was no fool. She knows standing against the superior is like asking for a death sentence.

"No offence Zeus but what nonsense are you speaking?" Jupiter narrows his eyes at the mention of his name.

"I dare you to repeat what you just said Aphrodite"

"What I meant is, you know my powers are in no way comparable to yours. Why would you request for a fight with me!" She tries to reason.

"I can change my mind. But only if you free this girl and your son"

"Free? Can you hear yourself? Why would I let her go? All she does is attract attention all the time. Not only humans, the other gods&goddesses all vouch for her. Why should I let this vain creature continue to exist?"

"Does this mean you've made up your mind?"

"You asked for it."  With that, she hurls a fireball at Jupiter which he in return dissolves. A look of fear passes through her features which she quickly masks with a glare.

"What do you think The Order would say about this? How can you challenge a much lesser goddess to a fight?" She tries to buy time with small talk.

"I hate to break this to you, but I am here with The Order's permissions. What did you think? I'm pretty sure you're aware of all the rules of the accord you've broken..."

"... Or do you want me to list them out for you?"

A look of defeat flashes in her eyes.

"What's there to loose?" she unexpectedly throws a blazing red arrow at him and that is when he snaps.

Although, he is almost indestructible, certain things can inflict pain on him though meager

"Bitxh!" He curses as he dusts off the crumpled arrow.

Forming a wútâ arrow definitely drains dear old Venus of her energy as she lies helplessly on the floor finding it hard to lift even a finger.

"I should just end things now. Enough of your childishness" Jupiter says with a cold evil domineering gaze.

It seems this is the end of Venus. The king is livid.

Venus slowly begins to float. Her eyes widens and her pale face gets even paler as she realizes what's happening.

"You-y-your Lordship..." she stutters

"... We can talk about this-this. You don't have to do it...

...I'll leave the girl. I swear on heavens. Please don't do this" she tries to plead but it's too late. 

The tiger has already been provoked.

She goes higher to the ceiling then all of a sudden, begins to drop at an alarming speed. She lets out an ear shattering scream as her body lands with a thud.

"This is how Taylor felt when you tried hurling her across the room" Jupiter grabs her bloody face with his thumb and index finger.

"I beg you." She pleads weakly and coughs up blood.

"Didn't they do same earlier? Did you stop?" his voice is thunderous and the look in his eyes is frightening.

"So why should I!" He captures her in a trance till her eyes turns glossy and lifeless. The temperature in the room drops to a degree almost negative as violent winds shake up the room.

Slowly, gently, the wind gathers and forms a tornado with Jupiter and Venus in it. Lighting bolts accompanied by loud thunder strikes the earth. The tornado picks up force and cracks begin to run down Venus' succulent skin. Her fair skin turns greyish and her hair shrinks to her shoulder framing her face. Gradually all his left of  Venus is a stone figure.

Jupiter has succeeded in turning her into a statue.

Slowly, they begin to ascend upwards till they shrink in size and disappears into nothingness

This is it... The end of Venus
