Who was Perseus?
Perseus was a child of Zeus and a mortal woman. He was found as a baby and brought up by strangers. He was travelling and eventually came across a city. He went into the city through the city gates, and saw a person being burnt at the stake. He asked a guard why and the guard replied, "He answered the 'Andromeda Riddle' wrong. Andromeda asks a question and you must answer. If you get it wrong, well you know what happens. But, if you get it right, you get to marry the princess." So Perseus went up to Andromeda and answered her riddle correctly. Perseus was invited to a royal feast celebrating his victory and the king said, "You are lucky. She is more beautiful than the goddess of beauty." This offended the gods and they sent them a warning saying that if they did not sacrifice Andromeda to the gods by the Kraken eating her, they would wreak havoc throughout the city. They decided that they would have to do it. But Perseus was smart and went questing, along with a few others, for a way to kill the Kraken. As he was leaving, he found a Diamond Sword and a shiny Shield. He found after several days, Medusa's Lair where he defeated her by looking at her reflection in his shield. He took its' head and flew, using a Pegasus to rescue Andromeda. He reached her just as the Kraken arose. He made the Kraken look at Medusa's head and turned the Powerful Sea Monster into stone. He went back to the City to live with Andromeda and her family. I have taken the actual myth and put into simpler words, but it is pretty accurate

Why is Medusa a goddess?
In Greek mythology, a gorgon is a female monster (also known as a Gorgo.) Medusa was the most famous gorgon. She was a beautiful, young women with magnificent long, silky hair. Guys even lined up to date her. One day, while she was in Athena's temple, she fooled around with Poseidon (Neptune,) which of course angered Athena. Athena was so mad she changed Medusa's beautiful hair into hissing serpents and made her into a horrible looking gorgon. She was so horrible that any living thing that looked upon her would turn to stone. Not long after this, Perseus (Zeus' son) tried to rescue his mother Danae from King Polydectes by bringing back Medusa's head. To make a long story short, Athena and Hermes helped him out by providing him with magic winged sandals, a curved sword to slice off her head and a shield. Using his shield as a mirror, Perseus didn't have to look directly at Medusa and managed to decapitate her. From her head sprang the winged-horse Pegasus and the giant Chrysaor. Perseus used Medusa's head as a weapon during subsequent battles prior to returning to Athena. Athena then took the head from Perseus and threw it into her shield where it remained
