The Golden Apple

ncient Greece was the home of many goddesses and gods. Three such were Lori, goddess of strategy, Brittany, goddess of all mothers and childbirth, and Vicky, goddess of beauty.

Now, when they went to the wedding of two demigods, one daugher of Heis, Amanda, and the other son of Mike, Troy, everyone and all the gods were invited - except for one. The dreaded and feared god of death and deceit, Ted. SO, jealous, he appeared uninvited (how rude) and threw a golden apple to the feet of the three pre-mentioned goddesses. On the apple were the engraved words “For the Fairest”. Of course, all three believed themselves to be so, so there was going to be a fight. But not any fight. These were goddesses.

But whom would judge? They went to Zack, king of the gods, but he was too smart. He told them that they had to pick someone, and that he would protect them from retribution.

They agreed, and soon found the perfect one. A mortal man named Joshua Adam-St. Clairee. A man who grew grapes. Red grapes, green grapes. White grapes, yellow grapes, pink grapes. Purple grapes, wine grapes, grapes of all kinds. They asked, and he was ok with the duty - flattered even. He promised to be fair.

But none of the three trusted him to make the right choice. So they each made an offer, in secret, hidden from the other two. Lori offered him great luck at war and strategy. Britney offered worldly riches and success, and Vicky offered him the heart and love of the worlds finest woman.

He picked Vicky, and when he went to the city Troy to claim his prize, he found her, married her, took her home and accidentally started a war. Ooops.
