Nature's Child

No Regrets

(A/n: i was reading what i published and realized my mistake for Meg. So in this story Meg is ageless when she made the deal with Hades just to make things a bit sense.)

Serena spent the next two months practicing her powers of what kind of plants she can create whenever Demeter had to help the mortals or talk to her family members. She also can disguise her goddess look to see the city of Thebes with Meg. Now there sat Serena in her mortal disguise with her dirty blonde hair was up to her middle of her back wearing a long blue off the shoulder dress waiting by the falls for Meg. As she was waiting one of the forest creatures came out and kept her company for the time being. "Hey. Cant get enough of me huh?" said Serena petting the tiny fawn. The creature leaned against her touch and heard a twig snap behind them. Serena looked over her seeing no one making her slowly stand up from her spot. Meg rushed out behind the thick hedges breathless making Serena look concern. "What's wrong Meg?" said Serena. "I'm getting away from Pain and Panic. Hades wants me and them to gather up monsters for who knows what." said Meg. "But you didnt want to and decide to ditch them." Serena guessed. "I'd rather train the three headed dog then be working with them. I can never get a single day off without Hades dragging me around." said Meg. "How about i can convince him to have certain days off?" said Serena. Meg laughed as if she was joking but realize she's not. "Ok how can you?" said Meg. "I'll think of something." said Serena heard two screams. The girls looked up in time seeing Pain and Panic flying across the forrest towards the entrance of the underworld screaming along the way. "Looks like Fangus took care of them." said Serena looking at Meg. "I heard you mention him before but never seen him." said Meg. "Thats because i created him about two weeks after I came here." said Serena as they walked to her home. "So he's a plant." said Meg. "Who's alive. I thought that he can be my company while Hades wants you to work." said Serena seeing the blue flames ahead of her home. She sighed and turned back to her goddess look wearing a simple one shoulder white dress with a gold belt wrapped around her waist.

"So your telling me that this plant threw you two into my important meeting." said Hades looking at Pain and Panic. "Its true." said Pain. "Thats because your idiots were trespassing." said Serena getting their attention. "This is your home. I don't see much of it babe." Said Hades. "It doesn't matter. Now leave or else." Said Serena. "Look I just wanted to see if my minions have done their jobs. Speaking of which where's Meg?" Said Hades looking down at Pain and Panic. "She must be with that blonde Serena." Said Pain. "Fangus come here." Said Serena. A small creature resembling a fox walks out of the crawl space under the piles of rocks that's holding the oak tree. From the snout down to the tail end is made of moss with two antlers made out of two branches while the rest of body was bark and vines. "That's what I had interrupt my meeting for. YOU TWO ARE SO ROASTED BY THE TIME I FIND OUT WHERE MEG IS!" Said Hades turning red until Persephone cleared her throat. Hades breathe in and out calming down facing her with a charming smile. "I was just going to give Meg my massaging lotion for her sore muscles." Serena lies as Meg pretends to be in pain. "I'm sorry that I'm late. I was trying to find the monsters Hades wanted." Said Meg falling on her knees. "See what you did and I was starting to like you." Said Serena creating a seat for Meg. "Time out. I'm going to regret this but Meg can one day off while you give me something." Said Hades. Serena narrowed her eyes crossing her arms leaning one leg out. "I'm listening." Said Serena. "I need your most toxic plants for a special potion." Said Hades. "Make it a month and I'll give you a two hour massage once a year. Also have these two far from my home." Said Serena pointing to Pain and Panic. Hades thought for second seeing Fangus getting annoyed by the poking and made the imps fall asleep by the swipe of his thorn claws. "Deal." Said Hades reaching for a handshake. "Alright but I'm ain't shaking your hand." Said Serena making a small bottle appear in her right hand. She walked over to Meg putting a drop on her back and massages it while Hades watches. "Leave or no massage." Said Serena as Meg got 'better.' "Fine. Meg your off tomorrow and be seeing you tonight." Said Hades teleporting back to the underworld with the imps. "Ok. Thank you. Now lets head to Thebes." said Meg as Serena transformed into her human form. "So tell me more about your friend." she asked. "She's strong in both ways, kind, loves plants like me,help those in need, and has a black cat with a white on the forehead named, Star." said Serena. "So you have no idea what happened to her or her family?" said Meg. "No. Some say they died and was never found or kidnapped. But i know she's alive somewhere." said Serena reaching down an alley. "Im sure she's doing fine and thinks about you too. Oh great." said Meg seeing a blonde man in her eye sight. "Adonis again?" said Serena. "He doesnt accept the fact i did everything for him. Just being a selfish prince as usual trying to win me over." said Meg. "You'll find someone out there." said Serena as they looked at the shop displays. "As if you can get my mortal and gods to have your hand. While im stuck with HIM." said Meg seeing the jewels boredly. "I maybe a goddess but im still same mortal back in my world. Now i heard Mr. Hugal is saving a spot for us in the spring. I know you love it." said Serena. Meg smiled a bit and followed her to the otherside of town.
