Chapter 1: Unfortunate

"Sire! Your wife is in labor the babe is coming soon." Said an cloaked man

Standing from his seated position the lord left his office speed walking towards a dimly lit room, inside was a beautiful woman with long black hair and teal eyes screaming as many maid's rushed around trying to comfort her.

"That's it my lady.. one more push.. deep breathe.." a middle aged maid said. With one last push the middle aged maid gently clutched the newborn babe, snipping the umbilical cord, wrapping the babe up in a blanket then handing it over to the mother.

"Congratulations your highnesses it's a son."

"Rictor check him.." The kingly man said

The hooded man named Rictor nodded and approached rasing his staff above the infants head, muttering some words Rictor's staff was silent..

...

...

"Another failure Sire.." Rictor said stepping away.

After Rictor's words left his mouth the baby's mother's eyes grew wary holding the child close.

Sighing, The Lords eyes grew dark, "Unfortunate... disposal of the child and rewrite my wife's memories.. we shall start again..." The Lord turned leaving the room.

"Please... Rictor.. don't do this... my child..." The Lord's wife protested.

Without speaking a sinister smile crept on Rictor's face as he raised his staff like he had done many times before... snuffing life from the babe...

...

...

...

In a realm where the sunless sky reaches as far as the eye could see, shimmering motes of luminescent lights twinkle in and out of veiw at irregular intervals, a city of Gothic architecture lay slumbering as if the inhabitants were none.. a magnificent castle with flying buttress' made from immaculate dark worked stone and shining metals of shimmering silver.. this castle large and imposing yet like the city below it was vacant.. all except a pair of thrones sitting upon one was a tall slender, handsome man with skin as pale as a ghost, his eyes were like the deepest rubies, he wore regal attire and a crown of black iron upon his head.. he seemed contemplating something.

All of a sudden the large door leading into the chamber swung open stirring the man from his thoughts at first he seemed annoyed but as his eyes met the intruder he smiled softly, a woman who rivaled her half sister.. this woman rivaled the goddess of beauty herself in this man's eyes, her hair golden her eyes like the bluest skies, her dress black mirroring the man on the throne, her dress was lined with thorns and black roses she wore a similar band around her head made from shimmering black metal.

The woman looked troubled..

Frowning, "What is it Persephone..? What's wrong my love?" His melodic voice rang through the chamber

"Hades my love... I was watching the mortals.. a father.. a king of a nation... just ordered the death of his son.. the baby's soul is about to board Charon's ferry... it hurts my heart.. my love.." as Persephone spoke her hair darkened as she cried.

Hades' heart hurt seeing his beloved cry. Caressing her face, "What do you wish my Queen?"

"I want that boy, My King.. I want him to be ours.. please my king... give me my.. our son.. that is solely what I wish.."

Hades leant back in his throne, silence filled the chamber.

Until, "The others will be upset.. my brothers will call me a hypocrite.. the fates will probably intervene... it will be troublesome..." Hades contemplated out loud.

Nodding Hades snapped his fingers, a moment later a man with unkempt spiky black hair holding a lyre.

"You rang my Lord?"

Nodding, "Orpheus summon Hermes at once."

The unkempt man nodded then left the room closing the doors behind him.

The color already returning to Persephone's hair, "Oh.. my king.."

"Worry not my love come the heavens of high water... out son will be with us soon." Hades said caressing Persephone's face. "We shall have our son.. he shall be strong, his body build by ours.. a body of a god yet a soul of a mortal.. perhaps he we grow strong enough to attain God hood if that is what our blood wants... but for now.. he will grow not knowing us.. he will have to forge onwards.. find his own path.. even still we will forever be with him.. in life and in death.. he shall be placed with the Varath family.. they are trusted.. a human family who knows the truth.."

"A born in a human family as a demi god.. He will be strong.. he may be ostracized but strong of mind and body.. strong heart.." Hades continued.

"One day I'll hold him close." Said Persephone.

"What shall he be known as my Queen?" Asked Hades.

"Ahhh his name will be.....
