Ch. 175: mories Of The Past (I)
"My dear beautiful boy..."
I don't know how but I knew that was my mother. Even though I was an orphan, I knew. This was just a simple instinct, I knew because I used to talk to her.
"Mom?" That was my voice but as a child.
Was I in a trance? No this was my mory but... Why was my mory important to .
"Rember...! Rember who you are--!" That was the voice of Hecate.
"?" Rember what?
"The answer is within you." The voice said again this ti followed by resounding echoes.
For a reason the discussion I had with Talos ages ago ca back to , when I had revealed my true identity to her for the first ti these were her words:
"Have you perhaps thought of the possibility of why you were able to master this world?" Those were the words she spoke then. "What if you weren't really chosen to co to this world but you instead opened the rift yourself."
"Then what would that make ....?" I had asked.
"A god!!" She had answered.
Thinking back now everything was starting to fall in place but I could not really accept it yet.
A mont later I saw a white string connecting to Hades, he looked at and waved. "I told you we were connected did I not scholar."
I rembered what Hecate had once said about Hades being a shut in and a strong minded person just like I could. Could it be... No that was absurd to even imagine.
Another revenge played out before , the scene of young Hades dressed in a ancient greek robes, his long blue hair reaching down to his shoulder, his eyes bright and beautiful and his smile— a radiance to the Hades I used to be.
"Mom, when I grow up big and strong I will protect you." He spoke with a smile like a child after doing a good deed.
Before him crouching down was a beautiful young woman with a face radiating like the sun itself. Her hair was long and crystal like sparkling with radiance, her eyes held a warm gaze. She smiled and reached out to graze the face of young Hades, for a reason unknow to Eugene Daniels hw started to cry.
"My wonderful little boy, you don't have to protect mommy, I'm a very strong woman aren't I?" She poked his nose causing him to giggle. His cheeks puffed up and his eyes bouncing with joy.
"I guess, mommy." He giggled again.
She sat down on the grass and pulled her to himself, she buried her chin on his head and sniffed on them. "Don't underestimate your mommy, I did give birth to you so you don't have to worry about protecting , that's my duty. And you already have yours my boy."
He opened his might wide. "Whaaat?!" He scread in an exaggerated tone.
She smiled barely suppressing a laugh. "Yes, Hades. Your duty is to protect your siblings and cherish them with love."
Young Hades scratched his head and said. "Babysitting is not a duty besides little Poseidon is still a little baby. I don't wanna, just let protect you mommy."
She failed to contain her emotions any longer and laughed so hard that tears ford from her eyes. "Those that look after their little ones are always mommy's favourite." Your next chapter is on empire
His eyes lit up. "Oh really? Then I'll grow up big and strong and protect Poseidon, we going to have so much fun together."
"That you will my little angel." She said.
He fell into her lap and found warmth there. "Mom, why don't you let play outside, why do you keep hiding in this garden?"
"You don't want your father to hurt you again, now do you?" She asked.
He pouted his lips for a mont and then said. "Daddy's a big head anie. One day I'll chase him away."
"That you will my dear angel." She said.
All while they spoke she had a warm smile on her face and pleased eyes. The joy she had made even the flowers around them blossom and the leaves greener, she seed like a blessed existence on the world.
"Mom, is sothing wrong with ? I don't have powers like you or dad or grandma Gaia but baby Poseidon already has his." Young Hades said.
His mother, Rhea sighed and then smiled again. "And that bothers you?"
Young Hades thought with a loud humming sound and then said. "A little. Why does my skin change under water?"
She did not hesitate to answer him. "Because you're different."
"Huh! Am I special then?" He asked beaming with joy.
She smiled and nodded. "Of course my little angel is special."
He hugged his mother tighter. "Mom?"
"Yes, Hades?" She asked with a smile that never left her face.
Young Hades hugged her tighter and then loud thunder spooked him but had it been thunder it would have been better but this was the voice of the one person that frightened him.
"Rhea, where is my son!"
And just like that the image vanished leaving behind in the pitch blackness filled with number of twinkling lights that barely lit up the place. My eyes were now read and teary, I dropped on my knees and asked the sliver of the black book within .
"Those mories, what happend next?" I asked.
There was a short silence before Hades materialised before and said. "You know the rest scholar. Kronos started to consu his children, my mother got angry at the last one. She sensed Zeus was different from the mont he was born, she lied about his death and took him to Gaia her mother who raised him into what he is now."
"The war itself though it ended in our victory it corrupted the earth and also turned Gaia into a being I'd devastation and destruction."
"Pandora?" I asked, my chest was so tight that it took all of my strength to send those words flying out. "Pandora beca Anonymous."
"As a stage of evolution, she did." The Hades apparition said.
I looked up at him and said. "Why tell this now, did you really forget or did you choose to wait for the right ti?"
