I'd be lying if I said I wasn't nervous, luckily, I know how to play off my nerves. I walk up to those giant gates I had dreamt of seeing and being welcomed into. I take a shaky breath, and use my powers to open the gates.
"Ha! It worked!" I exclaim, turning to face Dad and Mal. They stay silent. "Whatever." I mutter and continue into the clouds. I look around at all of the gods and goddesses. I quickly recognize Zeus, Hera, Amphitrite, Aphrodite, Athena, Aurora, Boreas, Cupid, Hecate, Circe, Hephaestus, Morpheus, Narcissus, Nemesis, Poseidon, Hebe, Helios, and Nike. I sigh loudly, gaining everyone's attention.
"Hades?" Poseidon asks.
"W- what are you doing here?" Zeus asks in disbelief.
"Seeing my brothers, of course." Dad lies. Poseidon and Zeus peer at him.
"Hi." Mal says.
"Lady Mal?" Hera asks.
"Who else?" I say. Their happy looks upon learning that Mal was here, quickly fade.
"Who are you?" Circe asks. I smirk while side glancing at Dad. I clear my throat.
"The name's Hadie, lady of the underworld, goddess of the dead. Hi, how ya doing?" I ask.
"Definitely Hades' kid." Cupid says.
"Obviously!" I say, my hair igniting. "Whoops, hang on." I say, the fire dies down. I smile.
"Why are you here?" I hear Hercules ask. I see him come out from a cloud.
"I want a room in a cloud!" I whine. Both Dad and Mal glare. "What? Can't a girl dream?" They continue glaring. "Keep glaring, like that ever stopped me." I say with a flare of sarcasm. I see Hercules stop in his tracks and turn around.
"You're the infamous Hadie, aren't you?"
"Yep. Pleasure to meet you, cousin." I say with a gracious smile. Megara comes out of a cloud. "Seriously, I really want a room in a cloud now. Imagine how awesome that would be!" I say.
"Hades? What are you doing here?" Megara asks. Before Dad can even open his mouth, I hold up a hand, ensuring that he stays silent.
"Okay, listen up. I don't really want to repeat myself. The name's Hadie, lady of the underworld, goddess of the dead. Got it?" Megara nods.
"Great! I thought it would be a great idea to visit my wonderful family up here, Dad always told me stories of how great it is here. And he wasn't wrong. Honestly, if I was Dad I'd want to take over this place, too." Megara raises an eyebrow. "I was also told that my looks rival that of Aphrodite, my intelligence makes Athena seem dumb, my fiery powers even Hephaestus can't match, Narcissus would be jealous of my pride and large ego, my wicked ways could rival Nemesis' in every which way, and my many victories would send Nike spinning." I say with a triumphant grin. I earn glares from each of the gods and goddesses I mentioned.
"Quite the large ego you have." Narcissus commented.
"Thank you. I already mentioned how you would be jealous of me, did I not?" I ask. Narcissus nods. "I forgot one tiny thing. I was the most sarcastic on the Isle. Anyone who dared to try and be more sarcastic than me always went down in flames. Almost literally." I say with a small smile.
"Like when Harry tried, and 'accidentally' let it slip how he was- and still is, in love with you." Mal said.
"How was he not? I mean, as a GODDESS everyone loves me." I say.
"Demi-goddess." Mal corrects.
"Goddess. Whether or not my heritage says so." I say.
"Do I have to spell it out for you? D-E-M-" Mal starts.
"Uh-uh. No. Goddess. I refuse to believe I'm supposed to have fairy blood. Infuriating." I say. Dad laughs.
"Phew. I thought you had softened out for good. Clearly spending time with me in the cave made me rub off on you." Dad says.
"Uh, did you not notice how I beat people in sarcasm wars, threatened to lock 'em up in the underworld forever, constantly had my hair on fire, and hatched diabolical plans for Auradon that I never carried out?" I ask, sarcasm oozing out of every word. The gods and goddesses laughed. "What?" I ask, confused.
"Hadie, I have something to tell you." Dad says.
"Is Mal not my twin?" I ask hopefully. Mal playfully shoves my shoulder.
"No, I was able to have you blessed by these people when you were a baby. Only you. Not Mal." Dad says, treading carefully.
"See Mal? I'm the better twin!" I cheer.
"Hadie, you are the goddess of Life and Death." Dad says. My jaw dropped. I interrupt him.
"Hang on, did I hear you correctly? I- me," I point to myself. "I'm a real goddess? Not some fairy- demi-goddess?" Dad nods. I turn and face the others who also nod. "What! This is a dream come true!" I say, pinching myself. "Ow." I say. I turn to Mal. "I was right! You can be queen. I'm a goddess." I say, sticking my nose in the air and walking away. I wrinkle my nose in disgust at what I was doing. "I'm a goddess. Wait until Harry hears. Wait, Harry hasn't heard!" I exclaim. I grab the ember on my neck, and use smoke to teleport in Harry.
"Woah, where am I?" Harry asks.
"Mount Olympus, dunderhead." I say. Harry turns and his face breaks into a smile.
"Hadie!" he exclaims, giving me a huge hug. I give him a kiss, and he giggles.
"Awe, Mr. Tough guy, giggling. Touche." I say.
"Shut up." Harry says, burying his head in my hair. "Why am I here?" Harry asks.
"If you would let me breathe, I'd tell you." I say. Harry quickly lets go. "Okay, so you know how I'm always parading around, telling everyone that I'm a goddess?" Harry nods. "Well, a certain VK who is in love with a pirate recently found out that she is." I say with a smile.
"You're a goddess?!" Harry asks.
"Of course I am, you peasant." I say with a lopsided smile. Harry laughs.
"My girlfriend not only has a twin sister who is a queen, but is also a goddess?" Harry asks. I nod.
"Yep. I'm just that awesome." I say. I burst into laughter. "You can go… do pirate things now. Your service is no longer required." I say.
"You can go do goddess things. I'll see you among the mortals." Harry says.
"Those foolish mortals." I say. I teleport Harry away. "So, how about I get to see my cousins, uncles, aunts…" I say. Poseidon steps up first.
"Poseidon," he says.
"I know." I say with a smile.
"My children are Triton, Ursula, and Morgana." I gasp.
"Mal! Uma is related to us, and so are Triton and Ariel." I say. Mal grins. I turn back to Poseidon. "So, it was totally worth schooling Audrey when we first got to Auradon." I say, turning and flashing a smile at Dad.
"You schooled Audrey? That's my goddess daughter." Dad says.
"Yeah, well, I only learned from the best, Dad." Dad nods. "Uncle Poseidon, nice ring to it. Kinda like Hadie Hook."
"Touche." Mal says.
"See, even Mal agrees. Uncle Zeus. That's got a nice ring to it as well." I say. I turn back to Mal. "So, technically, one of our cousins is old and gray, and the others are villains and one of my best friends is her child. And the last is really strong, famous, and a hero. All at the same time!"
"Yeah, that's weird when you think about it. We are royalty, and we never even realized it." Mal says.
"That's why you'd be a great queen. It's in our blood. On top of that, no one counts the fact that some villains are related to heroes." I say with a slight frown. "Odd, now that I think about it." I say, my frown deepening.
"Hadie." a voice says. I look up.
"Herkie, the boy who blames me for what my dad did to your dad. I don't think you can see, but we've all made up now." I snarl.
"Hadie, calm down." Mal says, trying to get me to calm down. I shrug her off, and my hair ignites.
"Oh, you think you're so cool. Just because your sister is going to be queen, and now you're a goddess. Your boyfriend isn't even intimidating, and just because you can control fire doesn't put you higher than everyone else. Just like your father, always thinking so highly of yourself." Herkie says. I clench my jaw.
"Never, never insult my family, understood?" I say walking closer to Herkie, hair blazing and rage coursing through me. "Mal protected me, even if I couldn't protect her. My boyfriend did nothing to you, leave him out of this, and don't ever speak about my dad like that. He might be an evil villain, but he was always loving and kind. I wouldn't want any other dad. Lastly, I deserve to be a goddess. If it weren't for me, you'd be under a sleeping spell right now and Audrey would be causing havoc." I say, voice dangerously low, a growl escaping every now and then. The gods and goddesses watched as Herkie walked even closer to me.
"You're pathetic, Hadie."
"I'll be pathetic as long as it means I'm not a jerk like you." I say with a smirk. Herkie glares at me. "Have a nice day!" I call in a singsong voice as I walk away.
"I'll have a nice day as soon as you leave." Herkie shouts.
"Oh, I'm sorry, your majesty. I forgot we are in the same family and I won't be leaving." I say, sarcasm present.
"Oh, I must've forgotten too. Maybe a dance off will settle this." Herkie says. I snort.
"You're on. Just note that I don't ever lose. Ever. I should call for my back up dancers, then find a song to sing 'cause there's no way I'm going to make up a song right now." I say.
"Note taken, I should get my friends to help me out here." Herkie says.
"They won't be needed because you're going to lose anyways." I say, walking out of earshot. I call all of my friends and pray that I win.
A/N: Hi! I think we all just love when Disney characters all just burst into song randomly. It's why I'm a Disney nerd. Anyways, I am very very sorry that my #1 ship (Harry x Hadie) is SO AWKWARD. It makes me want to pee myself, puke in front of myself, then go and drown myself because it's so... ugh. But, yes, the awkwardness does have a purpose that gets revealed in... Chapter 34 (maybe 35?). So, sit tight, and enjoy the cringe. Have a wonderful day.
