Author's note: Hiya guys, this story has been in my head for awhile, so I thought why not give it a go. I've been obsessing over Greek mythology for quite some time now, so I thought I should write it with a Gakuen Alice twist. This is based off the story of Persephone and Hades, so I hope you will like it on how I intertwined with it. As always, comments are greatly appreciated:}

Disclaimer: Don't own Gakuen Alice or Greek Mythology, just the plot is mine.

Chapter 1:

How can you define death? When death was right in front of you, and he was looking down upon you with such judgmental eyes. Izumi Yukihira pondered over as he was taking in the features of Natsume Hyuuga, the King of the Underworld and the King of the Dead. He knew this was it, he would have to kiss his mortal life goodbye forever and embrace what death had in store for him in the afterlife. He died peacefully in his bed, with his loved ones right by his side, as the grim sickness slowly withered his life away.

"Izumi Yukihira, please put your right palm out," Hyuuga ordered, and Izumi obeyed him willingly.

He noticed a raven flew out of nowhere, pricking his palm with its sharp claw, which resulted in his palm to bleed heavily. Shockingly, he felt no pain, the perks of being dead he guessed.

The raven flew back to its master, dripping Izumi's blood on Hyuuga's black gloved hand, and slowly the blood turned into a white-hot flame. It flashed graphics of Izumi's mortal life, almost like a picture book, but much more vividly.

As Natsume was skimming through the mortal's life, he could already tell he would be sent to Elysium Fields without a doubt. He saw no darkness that tainted his soul or his memories, he wouldn't be surprised if the soul admitted that he had never even hurt a fly. As he was about to proclaim Izumi's faith, a particular memory halted him from doing so.

What he saw made his heart felt like he was hit by that no good Narumi's arrow, the God of love. What he saw, was a beautiful girl about twelve or thirteen, who radiated off pure innocents. He was drawn to her smile, which could probably lighten any cloudy day in the sky. He shook his head at this, for being so mushy. Natsume Hyuuga, The God of the Underworld, did not have mushy in his vocabulary.

Why was he letting this mere mortal girl, opening up his emotions that he locked away like Pandora's box? Why did he want to consume himself with her company? Why did he want her to be his and his alone? And why did he want her to be his queen, in the far future?

This made Natsume realized that he had to have her, no he needed her and the light she carried within herself. When he wanted something, he would always find a way to obtain it, no matter what the consequences would be.

"I noticed you have a daughter, what is her name?" Natsume asked Izumi, trying to play it as casual for his question.

A genuine smile formed on Izumi's mouth. She must get that kind of bright smile from her father, Natsume thought. "That's Mikan, she brought so much joy and light throughout my life. She just turned thirteen not too long ago, it makes me sad as a father, I won't be seeing her grow up anymore," His tone choked at this, and he was trying not to cry in front of the King of the Underworld.

However, Natsume was oblivious to his efforts, all that was in his mind was Mikan. He caressed her name with the tip of his tongue, wanting so much more than just a tease of her name. He wanted to know more of her, so that he could please her when she would live in his kingdom. He would give her anything her little heart desires, he was the richest God of them all, and he could shower her with so many gifts.

"Izumi, I want your daughter," Izumi looked at him with heavy trauma and was devastated at this.

"Please, my King, I'm begging you. She is only just a child, please don't proclaim her innocence," He was on his knees now, pleading the God of the Underworld to not devour her innocents with his demons.

"I'm not going to couple her, I want her to stay in my kingdom as a companion. When she's old enough and right of age, I would like her to be my wife, and I would like your blessing," Natsume wasn't surprised that Izumi came to the conclusion that he just wanted to do that with her. The other Gods have gotten such a notorious reputation for that, especially his brother Tono, God of the sea.

Izumi looked at him with confusion, not believing at what he was hearing. Here sat the King of the Underworld, asking his blessing to marry his only daughter in the far future. He and his daughter were just mere mortals, why would one of the most powerful God's want to take his daughter as a wife? He didn't like to brag, but his daughter was quite a character, so he wouldn't be surprised that Hyuuga fell for his daughter's charm.

"Lord Hyuuga, King of the Underworld, you have my blessing on one condition," This caught Natsume's attention, so he inclined his head for Izumi to continue on this condition.

"My wife and child are still mourning my death, so give my wife and her a good amount of time together, just the two of them. You may take her when she's eighteen, and it leaves me at rest because I know she would be taken care of by a mighty husband." He smiled at Natsume when he referred to him as a mighty husband.

"You have a deal, and I swear to you as a God, to keep my oath. Izumi Yukihira, you shall spend your afterlife in the Elysium Fields!" With a snap of his fingers, Izumi's soul vanished into thin air, leaving the king lonely once again in his throne. However, soon enough, he would have somebody by his side, and her name was Mikan Yukihira.
