Rayne's POV
"Not a chance in hell" I growled to Adonis as I slammed my locker shut.
"Come on Rayne it's not every day a prince asks a pretty girl to be their prom date" Adonis said winking at me.
I was about to slap the Prince of Thrace across the face when I saw Helen heading in our direction. A smirk came upon my lips and I walked casually over to her.
"Hey Helen can I talk with you for a second?" I asked.
"Sure what's up?"
I made a pointing gesture to Adonis with my thumb.
"Your boyfriend asked me to the prom maybe you should remind him that your dating him and not the other way around"
"RAYNE!" Adonis exclaimed as Helen got really angry.
"Hey payback is a bitch" I sneered at Adonis before I left him to deal with Helen's wrath.
"Hey guys" I greeted Hercules and Icarus. "No dates to the prom yet huh?"
"I would have asked Cassandra but she's dating Alduin" Icarus stated sadly.
"What about that chick who's in the Inventor's Club with you?" Hercules asked turning to his best friend. "What was her name again?"
"Persephone? Nah she wouldn't want to be seen with a loser like me" Icarus replied.
Persephone was the girl who seemed to have a crush on Icarus and yes she was named after Demter's daughter. She was around Hercules's age and she was a pretty thing. Her hair was brown and her eyes were a lighter shade of blue. She actually was one of Prometheus Academy's cheerleaders and she didn't like Adonis.
"Just give it a shot" I encouraged Icarus. "She's nice"
"Meh it won't hurt to try" Icarus then ran off to find Persephone and I smirked.
"Good suggestion Herc so any idea who you want to ask?"
A locker door slammed and we turned to the see Tempest an Amazon Warrior who had transferred here not too long ago put stuff into her locker. I flashed Herc a smirk and nodded at Tempest. Hercules blushed before he headed over the teenage warrior.
Underworld
"Oi! Is anybody down here?!" I shouted as I entered the throne room. My mate wasn't in here and neither were the imps. Sighing I checked the usual spots where Hades went to and I found him near the Lethe Pool entrance looking bored out of his skull. I face palmed forgetting in this episode the monster in front of me was a huge fan of Orpheus and Hades had plans to kidnap the teen idol. The monster's name was Laistrygones and he was busy reading the contract that Hades provided for him. Hades disappeared from his spot and he reappeared in front of Laistrygones.
"I sense some hesitation come on!" Hades' hair went orange in annoyance. "We got profit sharing, bonuses, annual cost to dying raises, come what do you want?"
"Lay off Hothead" I told my mate.
"Rayne babe I didn't hear you come in" Hades greeted.
"I'm thinking" Lai began to say until his eyes caught sight of the scroll Pain and Panic were reading. "Me want Orpheus!"
"Hey you want Orpheus I'll get you to him, what's an Orpheus?"
"He's a teenage singing pop sensation" I answered my beloved.
Hades widened his eyes and he transported himself over to Pain and Panic.
"Let me see that"
Hades took the scroll from Pain and Panic reading it.
"Oi teen idol oh boy" Hades said before face palming. I chuckled as my mate returned to stand in front of Laistrygones.
"You mean this Orpheus! Orpheus my pal! Orphy!" Hades chuckled before continuing his bribing. "We're tight! He'll be no problem!"
Lais got excited and he grabbed Hades into his claw like hand and squeezed.
"Me get Orpheus! Me happy now!"
"PSST!"
I turned to see the Fate's around a corner and Lachesis made a come here gesture with her hand. I excused myself from Hades and the imps and hurried over to the three sisters.
"What are you three doing here? Was Hades expecting you?" I asked.
"No we came to see you Rayne" Clotho answered. "Let's talk in private"
I nodded and we headed to the throne room since it was unoccupied.
"Alright what's going on? You three don't just show up without a good reason"
"It's about your birth father" Lachesis stated.
"My father?" I asked. "I thought he was imprisoned in stone"
"Well the spell somehow got broken and he was freed" Atropos continued. "He traveled through realms and found himself here"
I almost wanted to pass out when she told me that. My biological father was here? In this realm?
"How is that possible? I mean how could he travel back in time?"
"Phoenixes can also across realms no matter what the time period" Clotho answered. "That's the other advantage of having phoenix bloodlines"
"And tears for healing" Lachesis added. "He came to our home and wanted to know of your welfare child"
"Where is he now?" I inquired. "You know what never mind that does he plan on meeting with me?"
"He does want to meet you but he doesn't want to interrupt your life at the moment" Lachesis replied to me. "He also is aware you are mated"
"I hope you three didn't tell him who my mate was"
"We didn't" the three of them said in unison.
"Just be on the lookout for him though" Atropos stated. "His name is Ignis"
Ignis?
That was cool since it was Latin for Fire.
"I need details ladies what does he look like?"
"He has your read hair and golden eyes that look like a hawk, if he wasn't devoted to his true mate I wouldn't mind of having going on a date with him" Clotho stated with a sigh.
"WE DIDN'T NEED TO HEAR THAT!" Lachesis and Atropos exclaimed and I smirked.
"Rayne?"
I jumped when Hades called my name.
"This meeting will be our little secret" Lachesis said before the three of them swirled around their eye and it disappeared just as Hades entered the throne room.
"Who were you talking to babe?"
"The Fate's wanted to pay me a visit" I answered.
"Oi sometimes I wish you weren't friends with those three" Hades sighed before sitting in his throne.
"Where's Pain and Panic?"
"Oh they went to get Orpheus so Laistrygones can sign that contract" Hades answered.
Hades then stood up and he walked out of the throne room and into the dining room slash living room and I followed.
"Sometimes I hate recruiting newbie's" Hades growled as he sat down in the chair that was at the head of the table.
I shot him an annoyed look.
"What's with the look babe?" Hades inquired.
"Did you hate recruiting me?"
"WHAT NO OF COURSE NOT!" Hades shouted. To prove his point his arm turned smoky and he brought me towards him. "Babe you're the best recruitment that's ever happened to me"
I smirked as Hades pressed a kiss against my forehead. Pain and Panic chose that moment to run into the room.
"Hello? Where's Orpheus?" Hades demanded not pleased that the teenage singer wasn't with them.
"He's uh booked" Pain answered
"He's booked to play a what?" Hades questioned the imps.
"A Prom" Panic answered. "It's a social function where everyone dresses up"
"I know what a prom is!" Hades interrupted as he turned an angry orange. "Thank you!"
My beloved returned to his normal blue coloring and asked the imps.
"Now where is this prom?"
"You're not going to like it" Pain answered nervously.
Hades chuckled before stating.
"Try me"
"Prometheus Academy" Panic replied.
At that being mentioned Hades lost it. His flames spiked even more and they lit up the whole dining room scorching everything in it. Pain, Panic, and I were all covered with black soot.
"Told you" Pain told Hades who was still mad as hell.
"I can't believe this! The best young minion since the Minotaur is ready to sign with me and the deal clincher is playing a prom for Jerkules!"
Laistrygones chose that moment to come to talk with Hades and I really needed to take a shower since my mate scorched me. Even though I slept alongside with Hades I still showered in my old bathroom. I shooed some wandering souls out of my old room before getting underneath the hot water. I must have spent at least fifteen minutes getting the smell out fire and smoke off of my flesh because Hades really did scorch me bad. Thank gods I was immune to fire.
"Rayne I was wondering where you were babe" Hades said as I got out of the bathroom.
"HADES!" I exclaimed. "CAN I GET SOME PRIVACY HERE?!" I shrieked.
I was in just a towel and my idiot of a mate decides to be a pervert.
Hades then realized his mistake and he turned red.
"SORRY!" he yelled before he transported himself out of the room.
I shook my head before tending to my hair which was still wet. After brushing it I put on a one shoulder dark blue dress and I slipped on my boots.
"I'm decent now" I told Hades as I came out of the room.
"I'm really sorry babe memo to me next time pay attention" Hades joked. He then frowned at what I was wearing.
"What?"
"You need something better on you babe"
Hades snapped his singers and my dress changed colors. It was the same style but it was blood red and I saw my boots were gone.
"Hey I like my boots thank you" I growled. I wore matching sandals instead.
"You better with the sandals babe"
He then snapped his fingers again and I felt jewelry being formed on me. I looked down to see a silver chain with a blood red crystal on it and I felt my ears to find that I had earrings in the same style and the same crystals as the pendant. Two golden arm bracelets were on my upper arms.
"Much better now we go to Jercules's prom, you can shift into your phoenix form babe the dress and jewelry won't get messed up"
Trusting his judgment I shifted into my phoenix form and we left the Underworld. We appeared in a dressing room and sitting in a chair in front of us was Orpheus. My mate was overdramatic when he appeared behind Orpheus.
"Who are you?" Orpheus asked my mate.
"Oi why do I even try" Hades then grabbed Orpheus's toga. "Hades Lord of the Dead, how you doing? Here are my minions Pain and Panic"
Pain and Panic appeared and they squealed in excitement at the sight of Orpheus.
"They'll be abducting you to the Underworld tonight"
Underworld
"Your mate sucks at being a comedian" Lachesis said as we watched Hades trying to get the huge crowd of souls to laugh as well as Lais. The Fate's also were fans of Orpheus which got me to smirk
"That's a nice dress on you" Lachesis complimented me.
"Thanks"
Hades suddenly flared up and he disappeared.
"He found Hercules and Orpheus didn't he?" I asked turning to the three sisters.
"Yes" they answered in unison.
The crowd began to boo and was getting impatient before Hades reappeared with Orpheus and Hercules. Hercules was in his hero attire for prom which was kind of creative.
"Well Mr. No Show" Hades said turning to the boys. "I hope you're up to performing because the crowd is full of deadheads but hey you'll be one of them in a few! HA!" Hades gave Orpheus a pat on the head and a lyre before walking over to Herc.
"Hey the next time you wanna sneak away you might want to try holding in all that yacking till your topside! Ha! Enjoy the show Jerkules because it's going to be the last thing you'll ever see"
Hercules then smirked as though he had an idea.
"Are you ready to rock?!"
The crowd and Lais started to cheer.
"Are you ready for Orpheus?!"
Herc then grabbed a piece of Orpheus's clothing and continued.
"Alright I got a genuine piece of Orpheus's clothing you want it?"
The crowd cheered in reply.
"Then go get it!"
The article clothing ended up in Hades' face and when my mate pulled it off his eyes went wide as the crowd of dead souls and Lais were coming right towards him. The Fate's and I winced as we heard Hades getting crushed. Hades suddenly appeared next to me and picked me up into his arms.
"Sorry ladies but my sweetheart and I gotta go get our new minion back!"
Hades then transported us to Prometheus Academy where the prom was still going on. Orpheus was about to perform when Laistrygones suddenly crashed the party. The students all screamed and ran for it. Tempest grabbed her sword and ran over to Lais ready to fight him. But the huge Orpheus fan simply smacked her away and she was thrown against a pillar. The impact made the pillar shake and the ceiling started to crack and it released Icarus. Persephone hurried over to him to make sure he was alright. Hades put me down and I shifted to my phoenix form and perched myself on my mate's shoulder.
"Go get'm boy there's the one who stole your Orpheus" Hades said pointing at Herc. Lais turned to Hercules who chuckled nervously but Laistrygones kicked him. Herc went flying and he crashed onto the refreshment table causing it to break. Laistrygones grabbed Orpheus in his hand and demanded he sing for him. But Orpheus made a rude comment and Lais became sad saying he couldn't help his weight problem before he tossed Orpheus. The singer landed on top of Hercules while Hades conjured a chair and was enjoying his cake.
"Smart move insult the evil giant nice! If I had known proms were this much fun I would have gone to mine" Hades said after finishing his cake. He plucked an olive from his plate and tossed it into the air and ate it. Lais was really pissed but before he could hurt anyone Icarus tossed Orpheus's lyre to the singer. Orpheus caught it and Icarus told Orpheus to sing like the wind. Hades went wide eyed while I did a feather face palm. Hercules encouraged Orpheus before the pop singer began to sing. His voice was okay but nothing compared to Amy Lee's who was the lead singer in Evanescence. Laistrygones stopped his rampage listening to Orpheus singing.
"What the? What is going on?" Hades asked to no one in particular.
Everyone started to dance even Laistrygones. I gave a sigh before I flew off of Hades shoulder and reverted to my human form. Everyone else was to busy dancing to notice me standing next to Hades who was actually starting to dance along with Pain and Panic.
"What the hell am I doing?" Hades said stopping his groove. "Come on you big lug! Crush them!"
My mate turned orange in annoyance but Lais simply ignored my mate's yelling and he let go of the pillar he had been holding.
"Let's get out of here!" I shouted.
"On it babe!" Hades shouted as he grabbed me. He then transported us back to the Underworld but since we jetted out of the prom so fast Hades, Pain, Panic, and I all got dizzy eyed and we fell to the floor well I fell on top of Hades.
Later.
"Okay Hades what are you up to?"I asked my mate as he led us to the throne room. My eyes went wide when I saw that throne room was dimly lit from several skull designed candles.
"Well babe since you didn't want to go to the prom at Jerkules school I thought I would bring it to you"
I felt my face turn red and Hades smirked.
"We need a song though"
It was a good thing I brought my I-Phone and I scrolled through my I-Tunes library and played "My Immortal"
"Whoa what's that?" Hades asked as the song started to play.
"It's a song called My Immortal it's by a band called Evanescence from my reality" I explained placing the phone onto the map table.
"Well the woman singing it is damn good better than Orpheus"
"You're damn right" I agreed.
Hades then held out his hand to me and I took it. Naturally his left hand went to my waist while the other held my left hand. My right hand went to his shoulder and my mate began to lead us into a dance that I was unfamiliar with. Whatever it was Hades knew what he was doing. We both slow danced keeping up with the pace of Amy's voice. The two of us then danced to some other songs by Evanescence especially "Even in Death" which seemed to be a favorite of Hades'. I don't know how long we both danced but when my feet started to hurt I had enough. Hades chuckled before he scooped me into his arms and he walked over to his throne and sat us in it. Hades took off my sandals and he began to massage my feet.
"Sorry babe I didn't mean to make your feet hurt" Hades said.
"Meh it happens" I replied. "Damn you sure know what you're doing"
"Zeus made me do this when we were kids"
"Oh that's f**ked up" I growled. "Don't get me wrong Zeus isn't bad but he pisses me off when he makes a fool out of you"
"Well at least I have a lady who appreciates me" Hades replied with a smirk. My feet felt less tense and stiff so Hades stopped massaging them.
"Your damn right I appreciate you" I then caught Hades off guard by giving him a kiss on the cheek.
"Not going to do babe" Hades teased before he pulled me closer to him and his lips began to attack the left side of my throat. My inner beasts purred with pleasure when my mate's tongue started to lick patterns all over my throat. I gave a growl when my mate found my weak spot. Hades chuckled darkly before he gently bit into my skin. His fangs were a mere pinch when he bit my flesh. Having enough I evened the playing field by pressing a kiss against my beloved's mouth catching him off guard. Hades shivered in pleasure as I made him submit to me. I continued things once I had enough of kissing him; like he did with me I used my tongue to trace patterns on the left side of his neck. When he gave a low growl I knew I found his weak spot and I bit him.
"Easy babe your bite is a lot harder than mine" Hades warned. Smirking I licked the bite and Hades went silent lost in the thrill of pleasure.
Will you take this to the next level?! I want to make him my phoenix half began to yell but my dragon made her shut up.
"Oi babe I don't know where you learned to seduce a god but you know what you're doing" Hades stated as I pulled my face away from his shoulder.
"It's basic instinct Hothead and my inner beasts give me pointers"
"Oh do tell" Hades stated with a smirk.
"Not tonight love perhaps another time"
Hades growled in annoyance and he turned orange.
I shut him up by giving him another mind blowing kiss which he wasn't expecting. He calmed back down enjoying the affection I was giving him.
"Try not to lose your cool" I teased my beloved.
"You'll be the death of me babe" Hades replied.
"Hello" I said mimicking one of his signature catch phrases. "You're the Lord of the Dead"
"Memo to me use better wording when it comes to catch phrases"
