Story
One day, Edward was in his room packing a suitcase when Unikitty came in.

"Hey, Eddie," she said.

"Hi, Unikitty," said Edward, "What's up?"

"Not much," said Unikitty, "Why are you packing that suitcase? Are we going on vacation or something?"

"Well, I am," said Edward, "I'm going on a class trip to Greece."

"Greece," Unikitty asked, "Where's that?"

"It's in Europe," said Edward, "and its culture is filled with old stories about gods, heroes, and monsters. In fact, in ancient times, the Greeks had a polytheistic religion, meaning they worshiped lots of different gods and goddesses, like Zeus, the king of the gods, and Ares, the god of war. Of course, the Greek religion didn't last forever, as in the year 146 BC, the Romans invaded Greece, and they still practiced the same religion and told the same myths, except their version has Roman names, like Zeus got renamed Jupiter, and Ares got renamed Mars. However, all that polytheism stuff changed around the 1st Century A.D., when Christian missionaries were travelling across Europe and converting the people to Christianity."

"Ooh, nice," said Unikitty.

Just then, Gordon came into the room.

"Got all your stuff packed yet, Ed," Gordon asked.

"Just about, Dad," said Edward, "I just need to find my passport, then I'll be good to go."

"What's a passport," asked Unikitty.

"It's an official document issued to you by the government," said Edward, "It allows you to travel to another country easily. Think of it like a hall pass at school or a toll at a toll booth."

"That makes sense," said Unikitty.

Just then, there was a knock at the door, and when Unikitty answered it, she saw a muscular man the same age as Gordon with brown hair in a flat-top cut and brown eyes. He was wearing an orange t-shirt, a black belt with a silver buckle, khakis, and brown boots.

"Well, hello there, Unikitty," the man said.

Unikitty was surprised.

"How do you know my name," she asked.

"Because," said Gordon as he came to greet the man, "He's my friend and coworker, Murdoch Russell. You know Molly Russell, Edward's girlfriend?"

"Yeah," Unikitty asked.

"She's my daughter," Murdoch said.

Murdoch then turned to Gordon.

"Ready for our bachelor getaway," Murdoch asked.

"Oh, yeah," said Gordon.

"Great," said Murdoch, "Ernie's already in the car."

Unikitty was confused and asked what was going on. Gordon explained that he, Murdoch, and Ernie Devlin, were going to spend the weekend at Ernie's lake house.

"Cool," said Unikitty, "Say, how do you three know each other, anyway?"

"We were in the Marines together," said Gordon.

"Oh, nice," said Unikitty.

But then, she realized something.

"But what about Thomas," she asked.

At that moment, Thomas came downstairs.

"You, me, and Puppycorn are gonna be staying with Percy and his family," said Thomas.

"Aw, sweet," said Unikitty.

"Yeah," said Puppycorn as he came down, "And me and Thomas are already packed."

"You better do the same, Unikitty," said Thomas.

"Alright," said Unikitty.

With that, Unikitty packed her stuff, and soon they were on their way to Percy's house.

"This is gonna be so much fun," Unikitty said as they drove down the road.
