The Princess and the Demigod. Part 3 Conversations and Hiding.
Hagon returned to his chambers in the Underworld, relieved that he hasn't been caught. Cuddles looks pleased to see him the frown now gone. Hagon is still curious about what cut his punishment short. Leaves his room with Cuddles following, the two try to be as stealthy as possible. So, they wouldn't be caught. He reaches his father's study/office.
"The earthquake was induced by magic, very few have the magic nor skill to create one, it has to be him," Patrick reasoned.
"I know how magic works son, I taught you everything you know," Hades replies, as the god lit a cigar with his left thumb.
"I'm not implying that the point I am making is that, he wasn't able to break out before the whole disaster with the kids," Patrick said.
"He will still be weak from breaking free, as long as Hagon, stays here …" Hades says.
"OW, Cuddles stop clawing at my legs, I'm trying to listen to psychotic papa and Patrick," Hagon scolded whispering. The three heads just stare at the boy.
"You want to use the boundary spell again?" Patrick suggested.
"I'm not sure Evadne might be available if she's still not on vacation," Hagon replied.
"Not that hag," Hagon whispered.
"Hagon loathes that hag, besides if it is him who has broken free, can Evadne handle him," Patrick pointed out.
"All my boys despise Evadne, it's become a tradition of sorts, it could be fun to see my little Haggie squirm, I can add further protection wards, but Evadne may need help," Hades responds.
"Haggie!" Hagon said still quietly his father hated nicknames and who is he? That they are so concerned by. Cuddles still not content with Hagon not listening to him. Starts to pull at the boy's trousers. "CUDDLES, PLEASE STOP!" The boy can't understand why his four-legged best friend was being like this. Yes, he knows it's dangerous to be spying on his father and brother. But they never acted this strange before, so his snooping is justified.
"Perhaps, you could stay here with Hagon and I'll search for him, that way if he is to show his face down here, he will think twice," Patrick suggests. "Of, course, Hagon will definitely know something is wrong if you suddenly decide to take a more active role in his life,"
"I didn't have children for them to think, Patrick sometimes I wonder just how much my children believe their desires and plans for their lives. Actually, coincide with the plans I have for them," Hades replies.
"And here I thought you just wanted to settle down have a family, go on family vacations," Patrick joked.
"Again, son thinking, you're only supposed to think when I'll tell you to," Hades said.
"Every day, you get even more intolerable," Hagon mumbled. What did his mother see in his father?
"Didn't grandpa Cronus say that to you?" Patrick jokes.
"Perhaps," Hades said.
"Just tell me what plan you want to follow with, we haven't got a lot of time," Patrick says.
"Go and find him, send him back to Tartarus, make sure she doesn't find out he has escaped. It's time for me and Hagon to have some quality father-son bonding time," Hades tells Patrick. This was worse than Hagon thought if his father wanted to be in the same room as him. Whatever this threat whoever that he is clearly someone his brother and father are wary of which makes Hagon seem to have more questions and zero answers. The boy couldn't risk being caught spying. He swiftly but quietly returns to his chambers with Cuddles.
Meanwhile over in Auradon in the night-time hours, the man which has escaped from Tartarus still weak. Walking with a limp the man who Hades and Patrick have been panicking over. The man found himself using a long wooden snapped tree branch as a walking stick due to his weak and injured state. The man who has been walking aimlessly around well to anyone but him. Eventually, finds himself at the old cave where the deceased Merlin of Auradon, Morgana La Fay and Marcel used to live in hiding at. He enters the cave and smiles at the sight of the petrified Morgana.
"Lucky me," The man said before tossing the tree branch to one-side, he then holds his hands outwards toward the petrified Morgana within seconds, she shatters her magic and lifeforce being ripped from her which the man absorbs with utter-most pleasure!
