“Well, somebody better figure out what to do,” Hera said, sounding alarmed. “And fast. Because I have a feeling things are about to get really bad again. And I don’t think we need an oracle to tell us that!”
She was right, Zeus thought. Springing into action, he whipped his dagger from his belt. “Bolt, on!” he ordered. Then, lighting the way, he led the others to the safety of some trees where they could wait to see what would happen next.
