Hector, I'm Home [open]

[Malcomb Warhazzard]

Sider followed shortly behind rai, it had been a long journey but that had finally reached mount olympus, and if everyone else was feeling the way sider was, they were tired too.

"So how much further is this guy's estate Raikotsu?" Sider asked.

[Raikotsu Sudeki]

Rai stretched a little before looking at Sider.

"You see the Hollywood sign there? Well, it somewhere between here and there."

[Mr. Kaar]

And sure enough falling on their position was seven people in black cloaks none looked too happy to see them here.

"And a Dragonling enters the land of the dead, bringing... The odd and restless with him?"

One of them speaks... Or maybe all of them, its hard to tell.

[Lucien DeChain]

Lucien was following along, and not tired at all. His recent training had helped with the long distances.

As the men approached, he stayed silent, hoping for one of his friends to speak first.

[Raikotsu Sudeki]

"The name is Raikotsu Sudeki, this is Sidervib Warhazzard, and Lucien DeChain. We came here seeking an audience with you lord Hades."

Rai would say stepping forward bowing his head slightly in respect.

[Malcomb Warhazzard]

Sider stayed silent, he knew his place in this scenario and it was behind rai, letting HIM do the talking.

[Mr. Kaar]

"Payment?"

One steps forward from the seven holding out his rather bony hand.

[Raikotsu Sudeki]

Rai would fumble around in his pockets pulling out 6 gold dollars out of his pocket and handed them to the keeper.

"Payment for the three of us."

[Mr. Kaar]

Charon would roll the coins in his hand a bit looking directly at Rai the whole time.

"I will warn you now. Your eyes are useless here."

With that Charon would lead them to the Hollywood sign, up and over that, then to a near by newly built part of the mountain. Inside was a few hallways. Charon would lead them directly to a center room. It was round with six five foot pillars in the outer ring of the circle, the room was an obsidian with a slight blue atmosphere. Between two of the pillars was a black throne looking to be made of obsidian bones and skulls. Empty.

Though around the throne was three rather large black furred dogs with glowing red eyes.

"Pets."

A voice would say as Charon was no where to be found. The large seven foot two inch man would walk from the shadows near by. Raven black hair a mess hanging around his shoulders. The Cloak of The Dead adorning his shoulders, the pale blue eyes looking bored, yet they held no pupil that was visible. This man was Hades.

"Its been some time since I've... Hosted guests instead of prisoners. What is it you need, Sudeki, DeChain, and Warhazzard?"

[Raikotsu Sudeki]

Rai bowed in respect.

"We are here because Zack Asiv said you were the only one that could help my friend here with a problem he has."

[Malcomb Warhazzard]

Sider slowly stepped foward, showing only signs of respect, and NONE of aggression, IN ANY WAY. and remained silent, He waited to be spoken to before speaking, he knew his place here.

[Lucien DeChain]

Lucien would also bow in respect, mainly for the fact that he called himself Hades, so he obviously had some deep-seated issues with unappreciation, but also because the man was tall enough to stomp on him.

He would stay silent as well, since Raikotsu was the one with the most pull in this region.

[Mr. Kaar]

"Oh? Little brother sent you specifically to me? Something his magic can't fix? Well since I do happen to owe Zack a favor, what is the issue?"

He smiled at the boys present. Respectful as they where he had returned their bow's as he finally took a seat waving a hand for his hounds to leave.

[Raikotsu Sudeki]

Rai would turn his head to Sider nodding for him to come up and speak his case.

[Malcomb Warhazzard]

Sider gave a slight nod back, and stepped forward.

"Sir Hades, You know my name already so i won't waste your time, My Qi has been locked due to an experiment my Darc, Sean Barker's right hand man, I can use fireballs now but i can't focus very well, i can't meditate upon my Qi, i can't draw stregnth from it."

Sider looked down in shame, knowing this is the first time Rai or lucien would hear about this condition.

"It's also eroding my mental stability" Sider stated in a darker tone.

Sider? what are you doing? you can't do this to me! it's not my time to go! just kill hades and be done with him! Lucien...we can probably trust, but kill Rai too, just in case! Are you fucking serious? Rai could kill me in an instant! and this guy hades could kill all three of us with his big toe!!! You can rely on me sider, you can trust me, trust yourself, trust your inner flame. I hate fire! and i hate using it against people! I am not a rageful person! i can't keep hurting random innocent people! we've had too many incidents already! i can't trust you! I never could! That's because you never let me get close sider, you never let me in! so i forced my way in. I'm so deep inside your mind that you can't remove me without killing yourself! I'll take my chances... Really? and just end your world just like that? Come on sider, you're smarter than that! you can trust me. We'll create a bigger fireball than ever before and kill all three of them! Don't you mean BOTH of them? I thought you wanted to keep lucien alive? Well...yes, and then feed him a gallon of grease later, and watch him puke his own guts out. haha! it'll be glorious to watch him writhe in pain! what'dya say sider? I say it's finally time to be free of you once and for all you useless piece of shit. Useless?! look at what i've helped you accomplish! all the things we've done together! we're practically brothers and you want to end our life just like that?! MY life. ok? not yours. Mine. and i will do what ever the hell i want! Like hell....

A sharp pain stabbed into the right side of Sider's head causing excruciating pain. Sider dared not move a muscle for fear of what hades might do to someone who just admitted he was unstable and just proved it thusly.

STOP IT! Stop! god DAMN it! that hurts! Stop! Want the pain to go away sider-boy? just do what i tell you to do! After this i'll never have to listen to you again. You hear me? I'm done with you! you're a fucking lunatic, and you're driving me away from my friends, and my future! I could have made it into the dragons if it wasn't for you! You may be done with me...but i'm not done with you!

The pain intesified ten fold. It was getting increasingly harder to keep his bearing. Sider remained still though looking directly at hades.

And your mother said to kill the dragons sider, will you not heed her word? I will heed nothing! She said nothing of the sort! She only said 'remember the dragons', well?! I remember them! for god sakes i'm standing right next to one! The one that should be dead? and how long can you keep up your composure i wonder...in front of hades, rai, and lucien...They're gonna find out... No! They are not! Oh really?

Another forceful stab to the right side of the head, it hurt a lot this time, Sider could barely keep a straight face. But nonetheless waited for a response from hades.
