It had been two weeks since Rago and Dynamis found out about the little surprise they had reserved from their greyette was now about a month along and tho he could not physically see it he knew it was there.
At this moment in time the happy couple were coming back from their appointment with Dr. Maron, hand in hand. Hooked under Dynamis' free arm was a tightly woven basket which held fresh veggies from the local farmer's market Zeusis had every week or two. Tonight they would some kind of stir fry and whatever else they could cook up. As they reached the shrine Dynamis went to put things away while Rago remained outside.
It was about mid afternoon and the sun was shining brightly at the mountain. In all reality the black son hated the sun, it shined way to bright for his liking. sighing the looked away from the glowing ball of burning gas and sat in his lover's stone seat. It was cold yet surprisingly comfortable, no wonder the greyette could sit here for hours and watch the sky. Looking around the area Rago noticed the rows upon rows of purple plants lining the ground. But, they weren't just any plant.
They were roses, the biggest and lushest one's he had ever laid eyes on.
Reaching over he plucked one off it's brush and analyzed it. The rose was naturally spike less and the petals were the deepest shade of rich purple, the aroma was breathtaking. Red eyes scanned the flower, it seemed so familiar... Then it struck him.
The rose he had given Dynamis... It was the same one... Or kind? But, last time he checked he had only given Dynamis one rose and not a ton. His little lover had most likely planted the flower and let it flourish, that alone made Rago smile.
Then... Something appeared, this energy... His eyes narrowed dangerously and he planted the rose down.
'This dammed dark energy...' He thought sensing the energy, only this time he knew who's it was. 'Evil dark energy.'
"Rago!" The blackette was instantly up and and ran to the sound of his distressed lover. When he got there he was met with a very unpleasant sight, that was Pluto. The red eyed male growled and moved over his love before taking Dynamis into his protective hold.
"What are YOU doing here?" Rago hissed venomously at the unfazed man, the unwelcome person grinned and bowed.
"Hello Master Rago, Guardian Dynamis," He came up from his bow and stood straight. Even after five five years the midnight haired male still wore his white suit and red tie, the only thing that was different was his hair, it was about haft a foot longer. "It has been a while since we have spoken, Master Rago. Your father, Lord Hades, has requested your presence to discuss something with the both of you."
Dynamis' eyes went wide as he heard the word 'both' and clutched Rago's forearm tightly, dreaded memories flooded his mind. "No.. I... I don't want to go back..." Tears pricked his eyes as everything washed back over him. The chains, the cell, the whipping... He didn't want that, exceptionally because of the baby. Rago looked down and gently petted grey hair.
"No," The black son stated firmly. "I am not letting that asshole anywhere near Dynamis after that stunt he pulled last time!"
"But it's about the child!"
The two future parents froze as the words registered, something about their little one?
"What?!" Rago growled again, pulling Dynamis closer to him. "How does he know anything about that!?"
Pluto rubbed the bridge of his nose and shook his head. "Master Rago have you forgotten, Lord Hades was the one who informed you about your new abilities and if I am not mistaken he is in fact a god." Rago's red eyes narrowed further and if looks could kill then the messenger would be dead. He stormed up to the unfazed man and took his neck, lifting him up and giving his neck a good squeeze. "Give me one good reason why I should let you-."
"Rago, stop!" The black son stopped his actions but didn't let Pluto go, only lessened his grip.
"Why? Dynamis this could be a trap! That fucking bastard wants to take our child and will most likely do something horrid to it!" He was about to speak again until he saw the burning in Dynamis' blue eyes.
"I know!" The greyette stated some what harshly before walking over and grabbing the front of Rago's shirt to make eye contact. In surprise Rago's grip loosened enough that Pluto fell out onto the floor panting and holding his neck. "But, we need to go! What if it's something important!? What if our child has some sort of powers or is slowly dieing in side of me!? I would rather hear it from a god then find out before it's to late!" There was clear fear and panic in Dynamis' voice as he waited for the soon to be father's answer, it felt like an eternity.
"Are you really sure you want this?" The greyette nodded before turning to Pluto and bowing in thanks.
"Thank you for telling us," He placed his hands on his stomach. "When do we leave?"
The messenger of the god of the underworld grinned.
"Immanently."
