Chapter 4: Down the Rabbit hole!

Bellona would fall through pitch blackness. she had just jumped into Thanatos's portal, one that only death dared to go through. she looked down and saw the end. Bellona would get ready for one hell of a entry.

[Thanatos's Residence]

Thanatos would place his robes in a closet and put on a hoodie.

"Humans, as pathetic as they are, truly do make good clothes." He said as he heard a strange noise. He would look up and see two large objects falling onto him. "Blast it all." He vanished quickly as Bellona landed in his home. He reappeared next to Bellona and sighed. "You dare go where death treads! Tell me why I should not flay you?!" Thanatos demanded as his scythe appeared before him. Bellona stood up and dusted herself off.

"That's a nice way to welcome your bodyguard." She said with a sly look. Thanatos would just stare at her.

"Pardon?" He asked slightly confused.

"That's right! Bellona the bodyguard! Cronos asked me to do it because Hades was busy, and everyone else didn't have any interest."

"Fool I do not need a bodyguard." He said as his scythe vanished.

"You mean even though you had your ass handed to you by three people already?" She said making the area where Thanatos's veins would be burn with rage.

"I care little for your reasoning. I am Death! I do not need a guard!"

"Didn't you also get captured by a human at one time." She said making Thanatos seething with anger.

"I HAD NO WAY TO FIGHT BACK THEN! Besides nowadays I carry my weapon with me." He said crossing his arms angrily. Bellona just bellowed.

"Not to worry, for I will protect you!" She said as she snapped her fingers and a bed popped up behinder her….well more like a military cot. Thanatos just groaned.

"You're not leaving anytime soon are you?" He asked covering his face only to see that she was exploring his room. It was dark and dismal just like him, with books lining a few shelves he had. On his walks were pictures of him in various forms. Ranging from when he was young and still had skin, to today where he wore battle armor. Bellona looked closely at the one of him when he had skin and blushed deeply. Thanatos looked over and jumped over his bed. Pushing her away from the picture. "Listen here! I am fine! I do not need a guard so leave." He said pushing as she slipped away from him.

"Nope! Uh...never pegged you for a music fan." She said as she opened his closet door to see Pentakill CD's.

"Rule one! No messing with my stuff." He said pushing her away like a child trying to get their mother to leave their things alone. Bellona would move away and look under Thanatos's bed. She saw a few boxes filled with movies but nothing really intresting.

"Where are the dirty books or scrolls?"

"HOW OLD DO I LOOK TO YOU!?" He said angrily as she began to snoop around a bit. She walked over to his shelf and looked over the books he had. "Listen here, Unless I get a note saying you have to stay you're not now then." He said walking over to a door. "Get out!" He said opening it to see Mercury holding a note.

"Popular today uh Than?" He said handing than a note and seeing Bellona. "Heyyyy, Bellona how are you?" Thanatos would throw the god a gold coin and push him away. He opened the letter and dropped his head.

"What crime against the Anake have I committed?" He asked with a groan as Belllona walked over. She would look over his shoulder and grin as she read it.

To Thanatos:

Due to recent actions it is hereby noted that Bellona of the Roman Pantheon shall henceforth be responsible for your safety. NO EXCEPTIONS.

Nox

Thanatos just shook his head and flopped into his bed.

"Tired are we?" Bellona asked with a smile.

"Gods do not feel tired…..though I will make an exception for this day." Thanatos said as he rolled over and looked up at the ceiling. Bellona smiled evilly as a sly idea crept into her head. Thanatos would feel slight movement and sigh. If I look over I know what I will see. Perhaps I can just wait her out. He thought as he rested his mind...until he felt a hand creep over his midsection. Thanatos would roll out of the bed and stand up. He would then see Bellona there with a smile. "Have you blown a fuse?! You are a god! Act like one!" He said making Bellona laugh.

"Indeed I am but many do not believe in the goddess of war." Thanatos just groaned.

It is better than having to deal with Ares. He thought cracking finally. "Fine. I shall sleep in the cot, you may do as you wish, so long as it doesn't bother me." He said as he sat down on the cot. Bellona would sigh and give a slight yawn.

"Yeah today has been tiring." She said as she stood up and removed her armor. Thanatos would look over to see what she was doing and cover his face.

"WHAT IN THE NAME OF ANAKE ARE YOU DOING?!" He asked angrily.

"What!? I'm getting out of my armor." She said slightly embarrassed that he saw her.

"You're a god just snap your fingers!"

"Where's the fun in that?" She asked almost liking him arguing with her.

This is going to be a long night. He thought as he rolled over and tried to drift off to sleep.

[Tech room]

Hades had entered the room to find the Smite realms tech personal. As gods they had no use for tech, but many gods saw that it had it's uses. For one god...it was pwning noobs.

"HA HA HA *snort*." Hades just groaned as he looked over to Cabrakan of the Mayan pantheon.

"What in the world are you doing you imbecile?" Hades asked as he watched him play a online game.

"I'm playing League adah? What a noob." He said making Hades's eyes twitch slightly. Hades would wrap his fingers around Cabrakan's neck and lift him in the air.

"LIsten here you fool I need information, and I am not in the mood to deal with an IDIOT!" He said tossing him down. Cabrakan turned and typed something on the screen.

AFK BRB!

"Now then what do you want?" He asked with a sigh as he fixed his glasses.

"I need the footage from the championship game."

"No problem. All i need to do is go to the files, videos, and done. He said as he handed Hades a flash drive. Hades's would break the device in his hands.

"I do not want the file you dolt! I want footage on a orb I do not use this tech everyone else uses."

"Get with the program old man." He said as he tossed him a orb. "Here. It's all on that orb." He said going back to his game. Hades nodded and began to leave until he saw something. He moved back over and looked at the screen at a character with a scythe and a book.

"What are you playing again?"

"Hm? Oh! League of Legends. A game where I control champions in another realm."

"A simple 'it's a game' would suffice." Hades groaned as he got ready to leave.

"It is a game, but they are real. As you know the smite realm exists just for us to fight, they have their own realm to fight, heck even Sun and Elphis go there, but elphis is known by a different name. Nocturne." He said as he gamed.

"Interesting more realms eh? Thank you Cabrakan." Hades said as he vanished.

"What a nerd. *snort*"
