"Come on Hades, it's not like it will be the end of the world." I rush after my brother who always wants to avoid me.
I am currently down in the underworld with my brother, Hades. "No Zeus, I will not marry my niece! Why are you trying to sell Phersephone to me like seriously?" And it wasn't going well, as you could see. "You need a wife to help you with the underworld." He stops and squint at me, seemingly getting more intimidating.
"I've been ruling for thousands of years without a woman and I am doing fine!" I can't tell him the real reason for trying to give him a queen. "Brother, you've been alone long enough." He laughs at me. "And you've been sleeping around to much, so what's your point?" He sits on his throne, smirking at me. Knowing he had a point.
"Aaarrrggggg!" He infuriates me! He just sits on his throne looking all dark and gloomy.
"Brother just give up on trying to get me a wife." Thanatos and his daughter Erin stands besides Hades. "Sir we have a matter to discuss that needs your attention."  Thanatos says, a fearsome god in his own name. He willingly serves under Hades, he's very loyal to Hades.
"Now leave Lord Brother,unlike you I have a underworld to run." Guess there is no arguing with him today.
Leaving, I make my way to Selene's realm.

"Sweety no come here, don't run away from me!" I hear her sweet voice followed by a small girl's giggles, well I guess she is not that little anymore. She's 10 years old.
"Daddy!"
Her white hair bounces wildly as she runs to me. "Hey there Pumpkin, what are you doing?" She runs into my arms and I put her on my shoulders, giggling all the way.
Selene comes into view and stops when seeing me. "Lord Zeus, what a pleasant surprise." Her smile was forced, granted last time we had a huge fight, so we aren't on great grounds right now.
"Daddy why do you smell like that?" I guess she smells the underworld. Her face is against mine as she bends over my head.
"I was with Lord Hades."
She thinks for a moment, "He lives down below right Daddy?" I laugh at her cuteness. "You could say that, he is the Lord of the Underworld."
"Can I go there?" She asked in excitement.
"Pan sweety, why don't you go find Ersa."
"Oky Mommy!" She kisses me on the cheek and skipped off. Ersa was my other daughter with Selene she is seven years old.
Where Pan has white silver hair with electric purple eyes, Ersa had black hair with electric blue eyes. A beautiful contrasts between Light and darkness. Pan has power over storms and stars, Ersa can shape-shif and is very good in combat training, making her and immediate favorite with Athena. She's the goddess of dew, making her close friends with Persephone.
"They need to go to school Love."
"I don't see why, Athena is giving them tutor sessions!" She turns to walk away. "Love please, Athena can't help them everyday."
"So, she gives them homework, I have a library full of everything they need to know." She infuriates me! "I am aware, but...."
"Lord Zeus, we've been through this already." She interrupts me.
"No you have made up your mind without thinking about the things I said,don't make me pull out the ranking card. ."
"I am a Titan Zeus, need I remind you!" Like I said she infuriates me! I should've checked the moon's status before I came. "Mommy, Daddy, are you fighting?" Two pairs of eyes stare at us looking all teary. I kneel in front of them. "No Sweethearts, we are just talking."
"Sis Athena says that if Daddy says that it means that you are fighting with Mommy. Fighting is bad Daddy!"
Ai jai, Pan is really getting to clever and I need to talk to Athena on the other hand. "Sometimes we need to fight, adults do that." They seem to think it over before looking at Selene, they are very attached and protective of her. Last time Ares pranked Selene at one of our parties and Pan set him on fire. Yeah needless to say he learned his lesson and Pan has him wrapped around her finger. It's cute really. "It's okay girls, go get ready for bed girls."
They kiss us before they run off again.
"Selene please, just give it a try, if the girls don't like it we can stop it immediately, please Love." She seems to be thinking it over, I wish I could pray to someone, but it's hard when you are a god. "Alright, fine you win!" I embrace her, "Thank you! It means alot." I give her a kiss on the head. "Sure Zeus, sure." She gives me one of her cheeky smiles and walks away. "What, no goodbyes?"
... Guess not?
