Apollo has always been perceived as the bastard of the Olympian/Greek gods, but that’s just part of what his life was. The bigger part is thousands upon thousands of years later, when he makes a bet with Aphrodite. He claims that he can fall in love and have someone love him equally while she believes that there's no such love for him. The two form the bet and Zeus lays down the rules; Apollo must be reborn into a mortal life until such a love is found without his magic.

I feel like my life could be better… I’m…I suffer a lot and I wish someone could help me feel better. I used to be a cutter…unfortunately, that’s the life I had; since leaving my abusive father, things have gotten better. I’m just glad I didn’t turn out like him; unfortunately, I live on the streets. I never graduated, and I can’t hold down a job; it sucks, but I make the best of it…

All I was doing, was heading home when I saw this girl, being held at gunpoint. I've lived more than a millennia and I've noticed that humans have become nastier; hence, not interested in a destined relationship with them...but, when I see this young battered girl, being held at gunpoint, I can't seem to help myself; something about her, screams 'help me'. I'm a space demon, and with that I have the ability to reverse time...we don't of course; we do have the ability to go back in time however, and something tells me, this girl needs to search her past, to look forward to the future.

I've always had an odd and strange life, but I didn't expect it to turn out this way—I'm detective Atlas Jones and I've got a problem—well, two problems; I keep running into two people that show up at my murder cases. I don't think they're involved, because one of them is a friend of Mira Saunders; at least, I saw him at the hospital some months back—he gives me the creeps; he's not alone either, he's got someone with him and the intense look he gives me, makes my body shiver all over—it doesn't help that he's hot, I'm gay and I've been going through a dry spell.
