~~Candi~~

Daemon stood up and smacked her, causing her to fall back behind the table and break dishes,

"Do NOT make a fool of me in front of these peoples." He yelled at Candi as she snarled up at him. She opened her mouth to speak before a loud, male's voice interrupted her.

"Enough!" She sat up and stared at the man, her father in her dreams.

'have they come to take me?' She thought to herself as she stood.

"You, pawn of Zeus, will give me the child I was robbed of so many years ago." She turned and saw the woman that was her mother in her dreams. Instinctively she ran towards them, breaking the

chains that held her.

She ran into the arms of the woman she knew was her mother.

"Oh mother.." Tears slipped from her eyes before everything went black.

~~Persephone~~

She held her daughter as she fell unconscious,

"My husband! She is transforming!" Anthony ran up and took Candi from her before she turned to the man.

"You held my daughter captive, you were going to force her to marry you." Her voice held a growl that surprised even Hades. "Pray that you never come to my throne, for you will not make it past."

She turned and walks away, leaving the two men, Hades and the man, surprised.

Finally her husband caught up with her and Anthony, tears were slipping from her eyes,

"Anthony, take us from here, her transformation will be complete soon." She looked at her daughter, already she was looking like her father. She whispered to herself, so silently she knew no one

would pick it up,

"May gods help us if she is as merciless." They appeared into the Underworld, in her room as Anthony lay her onto the bed. She and her husband turned and walked from the room.

"Be gentle Anthony, she is weak at this moment." This was the first time she had heard her husband speak in such a gentle voice.

~~Anthony~

He brushed Candi's hair from her face, it was growing longer every minute. He could also see the fangs growing.

"This is the beginning of your transformation." He stared, fascinated.

Leaning down, he brushed his lips across hers. Letting the few seconds hold the love he felt for her.

"Your father may be emotionless, but I know you feel. I just hope you can love." He smiled and stood,

"I'll be here when you awake, my betrothed." He walked out and let out a happy sigh.
