Amu's POV

Eh?

I stared at him incredulously. "I don't believe you. I have known her all my life. She has never indicated that she resented the other Gods."

I waited for him to tell me that he was joking, but his face stays serious.

"You may know her, but only during your life time. What about a century ago? Thousands of centuries ago?"

I stay silent. He has a valid point.

"Has your mom said anything about her past?"

How odd… she hasn't. "No…"

"Do you know why she lives at Earth instead of Olympus?"

"Because Olympus does not have vegetation," I said tentatively, trying to remember what my mother told me.

Hades sighed. "Where should I begin? Well, Zeus was your Demeter's consort and they had you, but later he had an affair with Hera and broke it off with Demeter. However, Hera was still jealous and was not content. So, Zeus cast her and you away at Earth forever. Because none of the other Gods has helped or defend her, she loathes all the Gods"

This is a lot to take in. So the great God, Zeus, is my father, and he abandoned my mother and I. And Mom hates everybody because no one helped her...

"So my mother did not chose to live at Earth?"

"No. In Olympus, we actually have a better 'garden' than Earth called, "The Garden of Eden".

Oh.

But the million dollar question still hasn't been answered yet.

"But I still don't get why am I here"

Hades adverted his midnight eyes for a second.

" It... was orders from Zeus. He wants to converse with you, but I don't exactly know what his intentions are. "

My... father. So this was not Hades's doing. Perhaps he's not that bad.

"Okay, then let me talk to him. I want to get this over, so I can go home."

Hades is silent, but then he spoke.

"Then let's go now. It'll be a long way."

A long way?

"How long will the trip take?"

"Hmm," he said, with a calculating expression. "Perhaps a couple of days."

"Days? Can't you just like teleport me there like what you did when you kidnapped me?" I asked dryly.

"Well, we are going there together. Abducting you with the black hole took a lot of my energy, so we'll have to take the long way there. There's a tunnel that connects here to Earth and from there, a friend will help us get to Olympus."

"Alright."

(time skip people, cuz ain't nobody got time to write all that. Lol jk)

We're about to leave.

Hades and I have backpacks that carry our food, water, blankets, and other essentials. Right now, Hades is conversing with the guy with alluring red eyes and long blonde hair.

I avoided looking at him though I could sometimes feel his gaze fixed on me.

I'm leaning on the door, staring at an insipid painting.

Soon, they came and the Blondie said, "Take care, my lord and Persephone."

As he said that, his eyes shifted from Hades to I, and they lingered there for a slip second longer.

Then he walked away and it was just Hades and I.

"Shall we?" he asked, offering his arm.

I have never seen the Underworld and can only imagine. There have been many different stories about what is bellow. But somehow, with Hades beside of me, I feel safe, like everything is going to be okay.

"We shall."
