Ààaaaaaaaaa?""Soo cute!" He exclaimed pinching my cheeks red. But no matter how I imagined my current expression to be, it was far from cute and too close to a shocked-sloth.Soon, his teasing was drowned remembering what I said to Hades. CONSEQUENCES, CONSEQUENCESI sigh, clapping my hands to get ahold of his wandering mind."So let's practice.""What?""What?" I echoed his question. "What?" he asked again totally confused."What?" I repeated.He sighs realizing that it was going nowhere. "What are you talking about?"I smile innocently at that."Did you think I was joking about you being my patient?" "What!!" He screams and I nod till he is satisfied. Doing my level best not laugh at the expense of his hopless face, I chirp. "So let's start." And take hold of his shoulders to assure him. "It will be painless." He audibly gulps and for a secon

Adorned in ancient greek armour, hundreds of palace guards lined the stadium sized hall on each side.Zeus had fallen silent as Will leads us along the side of the great hall. I look past my shoulder at the humongous door of cold metal with the width of two buses and height of pine which opens without a creek to let a single soul enter at a time.Each time it opens my eyes strain to focus on the tens of thousands gathered at its entrance. A woman in her late twenties steps through the door and am shocked by her appearance. Dressed in a simple off-white dress, her body was transparent in a manner that one could make out her features while still seeing through.After taking notice of my dazed eyes Will took it to himself to lead me. A few seconds later he tugged at my hand while I stood rooted in spot with my mouth agape.Suddenly the door, the delarted and the guards were no longer an domineering presence.Cold, hard glacial stairs lead up to the Golden throne of the Underworld.

Dedicated to my pet dog Dora.As the god of the Underworld leaves, the room falls silent except for the erratic beats of my confused heart.I got up but slumped back again. Am too hungry to move and where did Hades dissappear to?I slap my cheeks as if that would knock some sense into me, but nothing helps.And so with the intense determination to get him off my mind, I stretchthe sleep off my limbs and set my course with only one person in mind.The magic of the castle did not falter and I found the blue eyed boy I was looking for.Regrettably I noticed he was busy with him and a dozen guards in converse of something that looked rather important. Not wanting to disturb the others I did not approach and waited till the rest began to discuss some proposition Will suggests.Putting this chance to use, I frantically wave from a distance. When the deep blue orbs take notice, his expression relaxes to a soft smile.At the same time, observing their leader's sudden change in attitude a few

"Take your hands off of her!" Zeus and I instantly freeze by the blade like hostility. Never once have seen such an expression upon his face, never such rage as he advances forward while we stand rooted in lasting shock."Why? Because you can't?" Zeus is the first to regain but provocatively chides and maybe he had already foreseen the consequences for the shield was up even before the attack was decided. An orb of lightening engulfed the King of Olympus protecting him from the invisible dangers which nudged at the force field with terrifying might that the ground around it caved and the air froze to a foggy mist.But standing only centimetres away, I felt I was a world apart without even a cold breeze blowing past my face."It's been a long time, Death." Zeus nonchalantly says."Not long enough Lord Zeus." And suddenly the honorific was a mean word rolling off his tongue."And I am the magnificent Elizabeth." I mutter

Without sparing any of us a glance Hades takes his seat at the head.And soon the large room is flooded with butlers and maids who deliver us enough food to feed twenty or so.When they scurry back out I take my seat but not without jabbing Zeus's thigh under the table with the fork I had not surrendered. For a while I searched for the proper position for placing my weapons and during that time I noticed that it wasn't only me who keenly observed Hades for a sign of a reaction. But all we got was nothing. And when I finally figured out where to place them one went crooked and the other fell right off the table, a little too far from where I sat.It was as it the forks had grown wings, nasty naughty wings.So once again I got off from my high chair to pick it up. But as I bend I feel something soft and rather ticklish brush past my hair.By the time I realized what exactly happened Hades had already gracefully
