Aether of Zeus

[Melinda]

::Zeus' mouth drops open and he's left speechless. He tries to let anger rip through him, but it's not coming. He feels... stupid. Really stupid.::

[Jasmine]

::Sensing her cue, Athena steps over to the Urn and lets herself flow from Jasmine, relinquishing herself. Once she's gone, the psychic stands in front of Leo dumbly, blinking furiously.::

"... who am I...?"

[Leo]

"You're Jasmine Mulvey and you just did a really good thing."

::Leo smiles lightly at the blonde before taking a few steps away and clearing space for the remaining gods. His attention is mostly caught by Paige and Melinda, though. He can see Mel coming through, coming over shy, feeling small and reprimanded. It's going to work.::

[Jasmine]

"Oh yeah..."

::Jasmine shuts her eyes and rubs her head.::

(Shee, I can't remember anything...)

[Azura]

::Azura drags her pathetic self away from the masses and to where it's quieter, namely next to Leo and now her sister. It's been a while since Dionysus had her drink anythung but the God drank like a fish and her head is suffering because of it.::

[Paige]

"Now march your little butt over there and do the right thing. Do you remember what the right thing is?"

::Paige stares her daughter down. It doesn't even feel strange to her that Melinda is in her adult form. It's just who she is. She's playing to Melinda's pride now, something Paige suspects the kid inherited from her Aunt Prue. She knows Mel hates to feel like she doesn't know anything. She's already connected Melinda's moods with how 'old' she presents herself as.::

[Melinda]

"Moooom!"

::Yes, Zeus, the King of All Gods just whined.::

[Paige]

"Melinda Halliwell, you do what I tell you to right now!"

[Melinda]

::Melinda sighs then, huffily, slopes over to the Urn. She pauses, feeling Zeus fighting slightly, but then leans forward and relinquishes the god into the vase. Right now, she fears mom's wrath more than a god's.::

[The Powers That Be]

[The relinquishing of Zeus, the highest power, brings about the loss of the two final gods - Hermes and Ares. Both Georgia and Julie have the gods pulled from them, the essences of which float into the Urn.]

[Paige]

::Paige, who had walked over behind Melinda, slams the lid of the Urn on, sealing the gods inside.::

[The Powers That Be]

[Now that there is no god to sustain the aether, all of our valiant heroes are transported back to the parking lot, where they'd come from.]
