"I know you do, but he does not remember you" Persephone said as she stroked her hair

"How do I get him back?" Breisis asked

"You can't, you have to let him go"

"No, I will never let him go. I want to talk to Hades, I want to take Achilles back"

"But he doesn't remember you. Even if Hades released him to you, you have to give something up. And Hades won't give him back his memory. It will only look like him, but it is not him"

"No. I won't give him up. I won't."

"Few mortals have come to Hades and even less have convinced Hades to let them take their loved ones with them. And most fail. You may try but you may fail and never see him again"

"I have to try. I know he would for me, even if he doesn't remember me. I will make him remember"

"I will go and see Hades. You may try and talk to Achilles, but he will not remember you"

"I have to try" Breisis said as she wiped away her tears

Persephone stood up and walked and disappeared. Breisis stood up and started to look for Achilles who had wandered off. He was walking around in what appeared to be an orchard. He stopped and reached up to pick a fruit from the branch. Breisis saw him standing there and taking a bite from the fruit. Achilles felt someone watching him and looked over at her. Breisis stood there watching him, her last memory of him was that of him dying in Troy. And to see him alive standing there, but unable to remember her killed her inside. She tried to gain her composure and wipe the tears from her eyes.

"Achilles, may I speak with you?" Breisis said

"Of course, that is if you don't jump into my bath again" Achilles said

Breisis walked up to him slowly and wanted to reach out and hold him again, but held her arms back.

"You don't remember me at all?" Breisis asked

"I'm sorry no, should I?"

"Yes you should. You rescued me twice, you saved me"

"I did?"

"Yes, and I was forever grateful to you for that. My name is Breisis"

"Breisis, your name sounds familiar. Are you Hector's cousin?"

"Yes, you fought my cousin"

"I did?"

"Yes, you lost your cousin and you took mine."

"Where did I take him?"

"You took him away…"

"Couldn't been too far away, I just spoke to him before"

"You spoke to Hector?"

"Yes, we were talking before about his wife and child"

"Achilles, do you remember anything about your life before? About Troy?"

"I've never been to Troy"

"Yes you have, that is where you met Hector, and me. It's where you saved me from Agamemnon's army." Breisis reached out to touch the side of his face, "It's where you found me and made me feel alive"

Breisis moved closer to him, her arm touching his and slowly tracing upwards towards his shoulder. Achilles felt something as her hand touched his face, it was something familiar. He looked into her eyes and he started to see flashes of memories, but he couldn't identify them.

"It's where I gave myself to you for the first time…" Breisis lips moved closer to Achilles and finally kissed his. Achilles kissed Breisis back gently at first, too gentle for him. His head started to fill with memories, flooding his mind, he kissed Breisis back harder wit more force, he held onto her more. Breisis felt Achilles coming back to her, he could taste the sweet nectar in his mouth from the fruit. And finally a memory came and played itself out in Achilles's mind.

He was racing in Troy towards Breisis. The two soldiers had held and were going to drive a sword through her. He had reached her in time, and killed them. She had fallen to the ground and he kneeled down to carry her.

"Come with me" he said to her as he lifted her up

And then he felt this searing pain. He let her go and arched his head back in pain. An arrow had gone through his heel. And it stung and burned like hell. He looked back and saw it was Paris. He had gotten up and turned to face him. He would not die like this. Not after he had finally gotten Breisis back. He charged towards Paris who shot more arrow into him, he ripped them out and kept charging. He could hear Breisis's voice screaming in the background, pleading with Paris to stop. But it was too late. He pulled the arrows out as he fell to his knees. Breisis screamed out and held onto him. She was crying for they both knew what would happen. He told her it was ok, that it was alright. But she would not leave him. And so he had to tell her to go, go and live as she had given him peace in a lifetime of war. And he would die knowing that he had known such love. His last image of her was that of her running away with Paris, fleeing the city. She would live and that was all that mattered.

He deepened the kiss and claimed her mouth. He discarded the fruit he held in his hands and pulled her closer. His hands trailed up her back to her shoulder where it began tugging at the straps of her dress. Breisis knew that she had Achilles back.

Persephone walked up to Hades who was still judging.

"I need to talk to you NOW" Persephone demanded

"I'm working right now" Hades answered back

"You're always working. What happened to us? I want a baby"

"You what! Can we talk about this in private!"

"You're always busy! I'm tired of this. You never make love to me anymore"

"Persephone!" Hades got up and grabbed her arm, "You are embarrassing me!"

"Then we should talk in private now"

"Fine!"

The two gods disappeared and left the dead who were waiting to be judged alone.

They appeared in Hades's castle in their bedroom.

"What is this talk of having a baby?" Hades asked

"Hades, you're always busy working. You never have time for me. What happened to you? You're so cold to me"

"I've got an underworld to run. If I don't do it who will? Besides why do you want a baby anyways? Is this your mother's idea?"

"No, leave mother out of this! At least with a baby I have something to do besides watching you sit on your throne all day"

"We can't have a baby. Where would it live? Your mother would demand that she take care of it, that it's no place for a baby here in the underworld"

"At least you have an heir. And you'd be too busy to notice me gone anyway"

"How can you say that?"

"You don't seem to notice when I'm here" Persephone turned away

"I'm miserable without you here. I send more people to Tarturus when you're gone."

"You have a funny way of showing it"

"Look, I really can't do this with you right now. I've got a million things to do. The line's getting long, I've got to expand Tartutus, Charon wants a better boat, or more people to help him, Cerberus is moody, and-"

Persephone turned around to face him naked.

"And…and…and…" Hades said trailed off

"And what?" Persephone said as she approached him

"And…" Hades said staring at her

"You talk too much, except when we used to make love, then you say nothing at all" Persephone pushed him back onto the bed.
