Haphaestus was done with packing when his brother came to meet him "Ares I just finished packing,I packed some weapons for you and the others" Haphaestus said to his brother who was smiling weirdly"what's with the weird smile"Haphaestus asked "guess what I just found out "ares asked and Haphaestus just stared at him blankly "okay okay"ares said and leaned on the wall "crimson's uncle Cyrus son"he said "what!?"Haphaestus couldn't hide his surprise "I knew there was something about him"his voice became exited"i knew you'll be happy to hear this"ares said "but don't tell Eris and crimson shouldn't know yet"ares said "we will wait for the right time to tell him "ares said and Haphaestus nodded "I guess I don't need to pack anymore since you've already packed for me "ares said looking at what his brother packed "let's go check how Eris and Isabelle is doing"Ares said and him and Haphaestus left together,getting to their sisters room they could hear some commotion "your highness it's not going to fit"a maids voice could be heard from outside "it will "Eris said "could we use another bag"Isabelle asked. Ares and Haphaestus stared at each other wondering what the noise was all about getting to Eris room they were speechless,if not for the fact that they saw the bed they would have believed Eris and Isabelle packed everything in the room and the funny part was that they packed it all in a little bag.Ares and Haphaestus couldn't help but laugh at the sight in front of them even the maids had to give them space because Eris and Isabelle were creating a scene and it was so funny,Isabelle was sitting on top of the bag in order to press the bag down and Eris was trying to lock it "it's not working "Eris said when she couldn't close the bag,she didn't even notice that everyone was looking at them laughing "try again "Isabelle said adding more weight on the bag then she suddenly jumped up like she remembered something"wait"she told eris"let me try something"she said looking everywhere like she misplaced something"what are you looking for "Eris asked"Do you have a ring"Isabelle asked Eris"sure you can have this one here" Eris replied giving Isabelle a ring from her hand,Isabelle collected it and dropped it in front of the bag she started mumbling some strange words,lights swirl around her dancing like she was singing,her hair glittering more silvery then the lights died down and the bag was no where to be seen only the ring was on the floor."why didn't I think about this earlier"Isabelle said smiling at the ring she started at Eris again "do we need anything else,we can store it in the ring with my magic"Isabelle asked Eris "we I guess we do"Eris said snapping back to herself "you're so cool "she added before she went to get more things"she is cool"This time it was Ares who spoke,he picked up the ring studying it carefully,nodding slightly"nice job Isabelle"he complimented her,what Isabelle did might look simple but it wasn't she used her light magic to create a space like void inside the ring that will be able to contain things he had to admit he's impressed"Thank you "Isabelle said noticing Ares and Haphaestus was here,the maids were not even there anymore."can I see the ring"Haphaestus asked,staring at the ring he couldn't help but smile, he was also impressed and was excited cause he could pack more weapons"nice"he simply said and tossed the ring to Eris"Are you guys ready"she asked her brothers and they nodded.
