Once upon a time there was a boy name perseus that was going to be sent on a 

journey to kill medusa of the " Most beautiful women " in the world at that time.

So all i have to do is go kill Medusa and then come back home right?" Said

 Perseus. Perseus was getting ready when zeus his trainer appeared and said "Oh

 I almost forgot to give you your present. 

His name is Pegasus and he will accompany you on your long journey." Said 

Zeus. Pegasus was a magical flying horse that was created by a god named

 Poseidon the god of the seas.only a few hours from taking off on his adventure he 

started preparing and trying to get a little more training before leaving.

Perseus's mom as a child   was named danae , she got locked in a tall bronze 

tower 

because a man was going to come to kill her father so to keep her safe her father 

Acrisius put her in a   tower.The tower had no doors, but it had one very small 

window. Danae was very sad, but one day a bright shower of gold came through 

the small window. A man appeared, he had a thunderbolt in his hand and Danae 

knew he was a god, but she didn't know which. The man said, . He walked into 

the 

tower and saw Danae with a baby 

on her lap, smiling she said, "I have named him Perseus."   "Bye Mom,bye Zeus 

See You soon"Said Perseus

"Bye Son Be careful,Take good Care of Pegasus"said Perseus's Mom

"Bye Perseus and don't forget your training" said Zeus.

Perseus flew for a day in search of a dim cavern in the far north,

 where nights and days are one and where the whole earth is overspread with 

really 

cloudy days.Only several hours away he didn't only have to worry about birds 

almost hitting him,but also it was getting dark and his flying horse "Pegasus" was 

getting tired.They were both very tired so they spent the night at a nearby cave on 

the island they had been flying over. the cave they stayed in looked very 

suspicious

from the outside. Once they got inside they realized it had been a old 

house.Perseus 

knew it used to be a house because of the old painting on the walls. Perseus made 

a 

small bed for himself using so leaves he had found on a oak tree outside the cave.

That nightmare about Medusa turning him into stone and he was trapped forever.

The next morning the continued on their journey 

to visit the they finally made it to Graeae to visit the three sisters. The three sisters 

were strange women, they   only had one eye for all three of them to share

so they constantly fought over it. He slowly made his way down the cave when he 

started hearing voices.He heard the three sister fighting over the eye.Perseus hid in a 

near by bush   he found in the cave and when the sisters traded to give the eye to some 

on else he sprung out and grabbed the eye and said " I have your eye and if you do not 

tell me were to find the Nymphs of the North you wont have it back!" The Three sisters 

obeyed him and told him how to get to the Nymphs of the North's lair. The sisters of the 

north told   him to travel farther north a couple of hours and he would find the lair.

Once he located the Nymphs of the North they gave him the cap of darkness which 

allowed its user to turn invisible. They also gave him the magic wallet, and told 

him 

where Medusa's lair was. Perseus went farther north until he found an island 

surrounded by rocks and statues which used to be men. The statues looked like they 

had tried to get to medusa to try to get her head but they had failed and medusa 

looked strait into her eyes and they were turned to stone.Medusa kept the statues 

there to lure people into coming in but once they got in they would see medusa in 

the face an sometimes in the eyes and turn to stone like the other people. Perseus 

had 

fear that his nightmare he had a couple of nights ago that it would come rue and he 

would also become a statue and join the other unlucky people.
