Artemis and Apollo
Artemis is the goddess of the hunt and the moon and she is way cooler than her twin brother Apollo who thinks he is the main character just because he drives the sun chariot. Artemis likes to hang out in the woods with her squad of nymphs and hunt monsters and she told Zeus she is never getting married because boys are too much drama.
One day Artemis was minding her own business in the forest when she heard a massive crashing sound. Suddenly this giant monster called the Cyclops burst out of the bushes. It was huge and had a wood bat swinging it around left and right. Then Apollo showed up out of nowhere wearing shiny gold armor that was way too bright. He said "Don't worry sister Artemis, I will save you with my awesome golden arrows."
He shot a bunch of times but he kept missing because he was too busy trying to look cool and posing for nobody. The Cyclops got mad and charged at him and Apollo, full of fear, climbed up a tree and started screaming for help. Artemis just rolled her eyes because this is typical behavior for him. She calmly pulled back her gold bow and took a deep breath. She didn't need to show off because she actually had skill. She fired one perfect shot right in the middle of the Cyclop’s eyes and it dropped dead instantly.
Artemis helped Apollo climb down from the tree and he tried to act like he helped by distracting it. Artemis turned away from him and told him to just go back to his sun chariot before she shot him next.
Then she and her nymphs carried the Cyclops away to make a giant feast. Artemis invited the whole town to her feast. Apollo helped Artemis cook and bragged while doing so.
When everyone arrived at the feast, Artemis was trying to make a toast when Apollo interrupted. He started to tell everyone about how he cooked everything and that they can give all credits to him. Artemis rolled her eyes and started serving everyone food.
Once they all started eating Artemis noticed something. Everyone was eating the food Artemis made but not touching the food Apollo made. She chuckled to herself and Apollo heard. “What are you chuckling about?”, “Oh nothing. Maybe just the fact that you are the only one eating the food that you made.”.
Apollo looked around and got a pouty look on his face. “Hey guys, why are you not eating the green beans?” Apollo asked. Everyone just looked at Apollo and gave a weird look. Apollo stomped his foot and sat down. Artemis chuckled again, and Apollo ran off. Everyone finished eating and enjoying their food and thanked Artemis for the food.
