The underworld was like nothing Jack had ever imagined. When he thought of this place, he always pictured skeletons walking around, doomed to walk forever in darkness, lost for all of eternity. Jack would've never believed that there would be a town full of happy, if dead, people. The underworld actually reminded Jack of Tortuga or Shipwreck Cove during the day...
And then he saw the palace...
"Oh my god." Roxxi mumbled, noticing the palace. The palace was entirely crystal, the stones having been heated, by the magma river below, for so long that they turned into diamond.
"Coming?" Calypso shouted from the river. Roxxi and Jack looked at the river, where Calypso stood next to a boat...
"You sure that's safe?" Roxxi asked.
"Yes."
Roxxi and Jack looked at each other, took a deep breath, and joined Calypso in the boat...
In the Palace...
Jack held Roxxi's hand as they followed Calypso into the throne room. For the first time in years, Jack actually felt inferior. He could tell, but the way her had was shaking, that Roxxi felt the same way...
"Hades!" Calypso shouted, startling Roxxi, Jack, and the man in the throne...
The man in the throne, Hades, was also very different from what Jack imagined. Instead of an evil looking walking corpse with fire for hair, Hades was very alive looking, with tanned skin, and fiery red hair tied back with a black ribbon...
Jack looked at Roxxi, noticing that her hair, which always seemed a few shades redder than everybody else's, was an exact match to Hades...
Hades noticed Roxxi, and dropped the book he was reading."It couldn't be!" He said, stunned.
"It is, Hades." Calypso said. "That girl is our child."
Hades got up and walked over to Roxxi. That's when Jack noticed Hades's icy blue eyes. And that's when Hades noticed Jack...
"Who's he?" Hades asked Calypso.
"My husband." Roxxi answered, wrapping her arm around Jack's. "Captain Jack Sparrow."
"Oh, so you're the captain of the Black Pearl." Hades said, looking at Jack. "Huh. I always pictured you to be...bigger. With more muscle."
Jack looked down at his own arm, and couldn't help but to sigh...
"He may not have a lot of muscle, but it's his wit you should be afraid of." Roxxi said.
Hades turned back to Roxxi. "So, I'm guessing that you're the-"
"Death Goddess?" Roxxi finished for him, pulling out her compact mirror. She changed it to the scythe. "Yes, I am."
Hades smiled at Roxxi. "So, if I remember correctly, your name is Roxxi."
Roxxi smiled and nodded. "Yes, that's my name."
"Roxxi the Death Goddess." Hades mumbled, before turning to Jack. "So what does that make you?"
"Hades." Calypso said. "There's a reason I brought them here now. We both know that, if the gods have children, when the children are grown, they take their parents' jobs. Seeing that we only had one child-"
Hades smiled, looking at Jack. "I get it."
"Get what?" Jack and Roxxi asked, confused.
"You will get it soon enough." Calypso said.
Hades placed his hands on Roxxi's shoulders. "Roxxi, if there'd been a way, I would've kept you here, I'd keep you here now, but I couldn't then, nor can I now. You belong in the world of the living." He kissed her forehead. "Good bye, daughter." He turned to Jack. "Oh and Jack, don't be too surprised to find the Misty Lady,"
Roxxi and Jack then woke up in their cabin. "Was that just a dream?" Roxxi asked, confused.
Jack got up and look out the window. "No, it wasn't."
"How do you know?"
"Cause there's the Misty Lady." Jack said, just as Mr. Gibbs ran into the cabin. "Captain! The Navy! They're attacking!"
Roxxi was already standing, scythe in hand. "I've been waiting for a good fight for long enough."
"Roxxi!" Jack said. "Our son's out there!"
Roxxi sighed. "Good point."
Jack then looked at Roxxi. "Actually, I've got an idea."
