Here we go! The next chapter!

'The Two may Die. Well at least we know that part is true. But the most worrying part is, Three Immortals First Must Die. I'm not to sure I like that part. I rather like living.' said a worried Nicholas.

'Nicholas, that could mean anything! Don't worry about it. Only one of my prophecies had been taken seriously and most of the main world historical events have been caused by it.'

'Like?' said a disbelieving Nicholas.

'Great Fire of London, 1666.'

'That wasn't my fault! Just because Dee went a tinsy bit insane with Fire Magic everyone blames me. It was his fault not mine!'

'Ok Nicholas whatever you say.'

Nicholas pouted and turned around.

'Your such a child Nicholas.'

'Well I am only six-hundred and seventy seven years old.'

'Six-hundred and seventy six Nicholas.' said a woman's voice. 'Its over three months till your next birthday.'

'Perenelle! What are you doing here?'

'Same as you, I'm protecting the Twins.'

'You might be a bit late.'

Perenelle looked quizzically at him. 'What do you mean?'

'Turn around.'

Perenelle turned and saw the two ghosts.

'Hi.' said Sophie.

Nicholas filled Perenelle in on Josh and Sophie's deaths and all that had happened since.

'There's still something i don't get.' said Perenelle. 'How can you see and talk to the Twins?'

Josh answered. 'Well, we connected with the Codex and...well actually I don't really know.'

Sophie nodded. 'Nor do I. But one thing is for certain, Dante must go to Hades to learn necromancy.'

'NECROMANCY! What are you talking about.' said Perenelle.'

Sophie smirked at Nicholas, seemingly pleased to have ruined his plan.

'The prophecy clearly states that the bronze will save the silver and gold. I'm pretty sure necromancy is the only way to that.' replied Nicholas. 'Unless you have a better idea?'

Perenelle opened her mouth to argue, before closing it again.

'Thank you.' said Nicholas. 'Now, we need to make our way to Hades.'

Everyone sighed, and Dante looked around nervously.

'Why doesn't anyone want to go to Hades?'

Nicholas answered. 'To get to Hades we have to get past a three headed dog.'

'And...' said Dante.

'It's a big dog.' said Nicholas.

'Oh. Right.'

Sophie spoke up. 'Hades will wonder why we're going to him. We can't tell him that both Josh and I are dead.'

Perenelle nodded. 'Truly a good point Sophie.' She said no more and then turned to look at Nicholas, as if trying to get him to change his mind.

'We won't have to tell him that you're dead. In the Underworld, spirits regain their mortal form and become human again.' Nicholas replied.

'But' said Perenelle. 'Hades will surely tell the difference between a real person and the spirits of Sophie and Josh.'

'Well' said Nicholas. 'We'll soon find out, I suppose.'
