Dynamis stared at the dark portal that stood open before him, heavy fear in his orbs. Questions that he had ignored earlier now swarmed in his head.
What would happen if this was a trap?
Would Hades abort the child?!
Maybe Rago was right!
He could be putting all of them in dire peril!
"Are you ready?" A very impatient Pluto asked with crossed arms. "I can't keep it open forever."
Looking down at the carrier of his child Rago could sense the fear and hesitation leaking off of the grey haired male, he reached down and took the the man's hand. He could feel his greyette's tenseness as he was frozen to the spot. "Dynamis love," Rago cooed trying to get a response. "It's going to be alright. I won't let him do anything to you or the baby, I will protect you this time." He tilted the terrified male's chin up. "Will up trust me?"
This snapped the pregnant person out of his trance and he met Rago's gaze. "O-Of course... I guess I'm just scared..." He faced the portal and the slightly pissed off Pluto.
"NOW are you ready to go?" The greyette nodded before the two up to the portal. Giving each others hand a good squeeze they walked thought the purplish black gate way, Pluto on their tails.
After arriving in hell they were greeted a dark, circular room, one that Rago knew all too well. Pluto immanently bowed and Rago became on guard. "My Lord, I have returned with the black son and his mate."
As soon as those words were said two bloody red, pupil lacking eyes flashed through the dark, Rago pulled Dynamis into a protective hold. A white, sharp toothed grin peered of of the graved darkness before candle light flickered on. The room was taken over by dim light as the ruler of hell appeared on his throne, he gave a much more nicer, some what warmer smile at the two.
"Welcome my son," He looked over to the male his son was trying to hide. "Oh so lovely Dynamis. How has the pregnancy been?"
"It... It's been f-fine... Nothing w-wrong..." Dynamis blushed at the subject, embarrassed by the fact that he was pregnant. "Good, good." The god stood and walked over to the guardian of his brother's temple, he was stopped by a wall of purple. "Back off!" Rago barked harshly, blocking his father away from his lover. "The only reason we came here was because Pluto said something about the baby! Not for you to touch him!"
Hades backed away, not from fear but out of respect. He knew very well that Rago hated him and if necessary attack, the male was on total defense after what he did to Dynamis last time.
"Alright," The dark lord said backing away some more. "Let's get down to business then." He went and sat back down before motioning Pluto out, it was only until the messenger left did he speak again. "Dynamis," He asked looking to the slightly hidden man. "You are a month along, correct?" The greyette gave a nod. "Good, now listen. The child inside of you contains very powerful dark energy. Soon, in a few weeks, that energy will start to overflow and will try to find a way out. If it is not abstracted with in twenty minutes both Dynamis and the baby will be killed."
He watched as horror modified the two's faces and Dynamis placed a hand on his stomach. "To abstract the energy Rago will have to absorb it and, because Rago can not hold that power for long he will have to create a small portal to Hades and release the energy into it." He paused to let the information sink in before continuing. "This dark energy will be extremely strong and just as deadly. When the energy will start to escape I do not know but when it does, I know it the pain will be unbearable." He turned his full attention to Rago who was holding his mate close.
"My son," He stated fully. "Only you can keep this boy safe. Keep an eye on him at all times, do not let him alone for even a second because it can happen at any time." The blackette gave a nod and held Dynamis closer.
"I understand that but, how do you know so much or anything at all about this?"
They watched as Hades' eyes darkened a few shades, almost black, and his brows furrowed deeply. "THAT IS NOT FOR YOU TO KNOW! ALL YOU NEED TO KNOW IS THAT THIS BOY CAN DIE ALONG WITH YOUR CHILD! I ONLY CALLED YOU DOWN BECAUSE OF THIS NEEDED INFORMATION, NOT FOR ME TO BE INTERROGATED!" Looking down the god hissed coldly and his eyes glowed. "UNLIKE YOU I DID NOT GET TO HAVE MY CHILD WITH THE PERSON I TRULY LOVE! I HAD TO HAVE HIM WITH SOME WHORE!"
Rago pulled Dynamis behind him as his father began to calm down, some how Rago had hit a nerve. Hades' placed a hand over his eyes and breathed deeply. "Pluto!" He called short breathed. "Take them back to my brother's temple, I wish to be alone." The midnight haired man gave a bow before walking over to the pair and summoning a portal. As soon as they left he slumped down into his chair and let out a sigh.
"Oh Dynim," The ruler of hell cooed softly to the darkness. "Where did I go wrong?"
After returning to the shrine Dynamis went to their room and sat on their bed, Rago followed. The greyette hadn't said a word since they got back and it scared Rago but, the fact that their had dark powers scared him even worse.
"Dynamis?" He asked to get a reply, he glanced over at the male's face. The twenty one year old's beautiful tanned features were drained and he looked as if he was a corpse. Red eyes softened greatly as he wrapped the tiny man in his arms.
"Speak to me love," he said brushing away the bangs that covered his face. "Tell me what ales you." When he still got no sign of reply Rago tilted Dynamis' head up by his chin and gently kissed the pregnant male's lips, happily he was kissed back. The two pulled away and pale hands took the side of Dynamis' tan face, creasing the cheek with his thumb. "Dynamis, tell me what you're thinking, tell me what goes on in that head of yours." At this Dynamis looked away, his gaze forced to the floor.
"I'm scared..." he whispered turning away, he buried his hands in his lap. "To think that I could lose this child because of the dark power that helped make it is just..." He couldn't help the sob that escaped his lips. "It's only been one month and... And... It's to much!" The greyette was shaking as he turned back to Rago.
"Rago!" He screamed as tears clouded his vision. "I'm so scared! I might loose your child!" Dynamis squeezed his eyes and buried his face into Rago's chest, the black son stroked his hair. "One month! That's all it's been and I've had so much dumped upon my shoulders! First I'm some how pregnant and then I find out that I could loose the child and be killed myself as well!" His voice cracked at that moment, he was suffering greatly.
"You're not alone you know," The blackette lifted his head up again. "I'm here." He gave a warm smile, Rago watched as his beloved became silent.
"Dynamis?" Looking down his smile widened, the guardian had fallen asleep in his arms again.
'Too cute.'
Giving a happy sigh Rago laid him down and pulled the covers over him.
"Good night love," He kissed his lover's forehead. "Sweet dreams."
