Cancer, the Crab This all began in the mythical times in a large kingdom.

There are four people in this story Hera, Zeus, Hercules, and another creature whose name is unknown. It all started when someone (unknown) sent Hercules and Zeus out to slay the 16-headed dragon. Every time you chop off one of the dragons heads, it would grow back a new one in its place. Therefore, when Hercules was doing a great job, Zeus started to like Hercules. It made Hera very jealous, and she wanted to make sure that Hercules lost somehow. She sent out a large crab to grab onto Hercules to slow her down so that Zeus would win and marry Hera. Hera had realized that Hercules had brought her little nephew. Then, her nephew ended up hurting the evil 16-headed dragon. Hercules stepped back and crushed the crab she pulled out her sword and slayed the dragon. Hera ended up marrying Zeus. They put a constellation in the sky to remember the crab and that day. That is what happened in the mythical times.
