King of The Underworld
I'm in gym class, sitting on the sidelines, when the loudspeaker comes on and I'm asked to go to the office. Mr. Smith looks towards me and nods for me to go, everyone stares at me as I leave. When I get to the office I say my name and the office/desk lady points to a room behind her, I go inside. I find a note in the chair. "Tap the ground two times." I'm not really suspicious so I just do what the note says. Nothing happens, I sit in the chair and wait, suddenly the air shimmers across from me, at the other side of the desk. A man shimmers into view, he has long white hair, blood-red eyes, pale skin, he's wearing a white robe, like the Roman's would wear, with gold buckles and clips.
He says, "Hello, I'm Aidoneus, otherwise known as Hades. A.k.a king of the Underworld.
"Hello, I'm-"
"-insert a name-, I know. I wanted to talk to you.
"About what?" 'What would the kind of the dead want to talk to me about?'
"I've taken an interest in you."
"An interest? How do you mean?"
"A romantical interest." He says nonchalantly.
My face heats up like a furnace.
"I would like to have you visit the Underworld, get to know each other. If you take a liking to me, we can marry." He continues.
"And if don't?"
"I doubt you won't."
"Oh please, you'd be surprised."
"Wanna bet?"
"Uhm…."
I don't get to say anymore because suddenly Hades is right in front of me…. I'm looking straight into his red eyes before he smiles slyly and his soft lips are on mine, his hair lights on fire; blue, light, cold. I run my fingers through his hair as I get entranced by his kiss, my fingers don't burn nor freeze. But my body alights like fire as if it were his hair. He pulls away.
"Why did your hair….?"
"My hair lights on fire when I get aroused."
"Oh…" my face heats again. Hades chuckles and leans against the desk, he pulls me to his body as he does. I stare into his eyes again, and I make my decision:
"I'll go."
He smiles and we kiss again. When we pull away, Hades goes to the front desk and says a couple of things to the office employees.
When he comes back he says, "Are you ready?" I nod. "Let's go, just hold onto me and we'll be on our way."
I hold his hand and then suddenly I'm staring at a massive mansion with Cerberus by the gates in the Underworld.
