Nature's Child

Double Crossed

"Ok here is the back entrance to his mansion." Said Serena stepping over the knocked out guards. Megara stepped over the other guard and checked her flats for anything. "Thank you for making the guards asleep. Will they remember what happened?" Said Meg walking with her. "No. I made this plant grow with a tiny drop of the amnesia water from the underworld. Hades doesnt know or the imps." Said Serena opening the door easily. Meg went in as Serena closed the door behind them looking through the dark halls. Serens lit up her hand with her green flame to see better and had a look around the rooms to hide in. "Now tell me again about how you and Citis visited your friend?" Said Meg dropping on the sofa. "No. No. You tell me about what happened yesterday with Hercules." Said Serena looking at the trophies on the shelves. "Didnt get in because of the crazy girls and a mountain man." Said Meg. "He wasnt there. Was he?" Said Serena. "No. So i crashed at your spa hideout." Said Meg. "Hades is burning you with his new deal." Said Serena. "Yes. But you are like the fates and know everything that will happen so . . ." Meg looking at her. "You'll know soon enough." Said Serena. "Oh come on. We both know we dont want to hurt Hercules." Meg begged. "No im not going to ruin any future like i did mine when i accepted Hades ring." Said Serena. "So does the spring goddess in your world married to him?" Said Meg. "Sadly yes because those two fell in love amd got to be together by a fruit." Said Serena. "And do you love him?" Said Meg. "By the very tip of a needle and there are times he can be relatable." Said Serena. "Eh. Are you going stay or leave me?" Said Meg. "Hey im not going third wheel and im going to take back my mistake that had turned my brother half mortal." Said Serena waving off her dress to change. Her white green ombre dress disappeared and shifted into a pair of dark pants and aqua green hoodie to cover half of her face. "Alright and if you hurry now the imps should be in Cerberus cave for feeding time." Said Meg. "Have fun with my baby brother." Said Serena walking away. "Have fun taking your plants back." Said Meg. "Unless i dont get caught. Love ya and tell Herc i love him too." Said Serena on her way out. She opened the door to see both guards are awake looking confused. "Boys we have a code CG in the front breaking in." Said Serena. "Who are you?" Said the man with brown hair. "Enough talk. Go. Go. Go." Said Serena clapping her hands scaring the men off. Satisfied Serena turned into a mist floating to the underworld entrance seeing Pain and Panic walking out. "Ok we have to take oleander,White snakeroot, and Hades favorite nickname for Serena. Nightshade. Its better than feeding Cerberus again." Said Panic as Serena past over them. "Dont worry we got Persephone for that once Hades takes over tonight." Sais Pain walking with him. "Yeah and she'll be a great help for us. Less burned skin." Said Panic. Serena rolled her eyes pulling her hoodie down over her face and turned back walling down thw steps quietly. Charon was by the docks of the river of souls pushing off any dead trying to get on the boat. "You really shouldn't be here." Said Charon looking at Serena. "I know but we both know im going to be living here half the time. Where does Hades keep my plants?" Said Serena. "Very private." Said Charon as Serena handed him a scroll. Charon took it and got on the boat with Serena without question. "Down the hall nine doors to the right." Said Charon stopping the boat. "And you get a six hour message if you dont tell that i was here." Said Serena patting his boney back. Charon nod his head and rowed away to the docks. Serena walked down the hall quietly and heard Cerberus walling over to the all making her press her body against one of the doors seeing Cerberus sniff his nose in the hall then growled before he left. Serena waited until he was gone and rushed over to the ninth door and went in closing the door. There she saw a few rows of jars filled with her plants that were dried and others in pots.

"Nothing i cant handle." Said Serena light her arms on fire and walked around the room burning the plants and absorbing them leaving tattoos of each plant on her skin. But screamed aa the door aa busted open to show Hades and Charon in the room facing her and the half empty room. "Didnt think i know you'd be here Babe." Said Hades. "Was it the dog?" Said Serena pointing her finger and at him while her other hand was on her hip. "That and the ring lets me know when you enter my domain." Said Hades grabbing her left wrist. "And Charon told you." Said Serena looking at the skeleton. "Yeah. Now put back what you stole from me or ill have Cerberus keep you here until tonight." Said Hades. "Thats nothing. He practically loves me as his mother." Said Serena pulling her wrist. "Ok then I'll just tell jerckules the entire truth." Said Hades seeing her glare at him. "Fine." Saud Serena annoyed shooting a stream of her fire returning the plants back where she found them. She crossed her arms as Hades teleported them to a very large master bedroom. "First off Whoa and Second why did you bring me here?" Said Serena looking around the room in awe. "Because we both know im close into winning and you owe that message." Said Hades poofing into a pair of shorts reaching his thighs before laying on the bed facing Serena who tied her long hair into a bun. "Two hours and thats it. No funny business like that kiss you pulled." Said Serena taking off her hoodie showing her tank top. "If i didnt know any better. I say your dying to your hands on me." Said hades laying his stomach. "Ill jump out that window down the river of souls." Said Serena getting on top and rubbed his back. She applied her weight crack his spine making him groan then moved to his shoulders.

After her session with Hades. Serena return to the falls was Kya and Jyma stood in front of her with something behind their backs. "Whatever you two have. I dont want to know and i need to wash off Hades off my body." Said Serena as they showed a dress that almost looked liked Hades toga but with her flower on the right strap. "I'll be taking a longer bath." Said Serena stripping into her under garnets and stepped in the hit water. She breathed as Kya and Jyma went in hanging her dress and left while apologizing. "Its not your fault your going to marry your adopted uncle by stupidity." Said Serena then felt someone calling. "Are kidding me?" Said Serena getting up and waved her white dress on. Serena teleported in front a Meg smiling while holding a flower. "My night with Hercules was amazing. He really is something." Said Meg. "I knew you two were meant to be. But you do realize that . . ." Serena paused as they both looked back to see the statue melted in front of them as Hades appeared sitting on his makeshift throne. "Hey girls. Now what is the weak link to wonder boy?" Said Hades. "Get yourself another girl im through." Said Meg walking away. "My night is starting get better." Said Serena crossing her leg and arms. "Forget it. Come on Serena." Said Meg as Serena followed but fell seeing her ankles chained down by Hades smoke. "Meg!" Said Serena as her hands and mouth were covered. "You and Serena belong to me. Now theres one stopping me and my queen on taking over Olympus. When i say i want Wonderboys head on silver platter. You say . . ." "Medium or well done." Said Meg seeing Serena sadly tied up. "Good girl. Now i have to get my future wife to see that boyfriend of yours." Said Hades teleporting him and Serena to the arena. Serena was on the bench with Meg facing Hercules who dropped the weight in shock. "Serena! Meg!" Said Hercules rushing to her but Hades appeared in front. "Let them go!" He says. "Not until we make a deal Wonderbreath." Said Hades.

"You give up your strength for twenty four hours and Meg here doesnt get hurt or your adopted sister." Said Hades pinching Serena's face. 'Hades!' Said Serena but came out muffled. "Adopted? What are you talking about?" Said Hercules looking at Serena. "Im talking about how She's not really your sister. Zeus brought her from another world where everything here isnt real." Said Hades. "Now i dont have to explain it all so we shake on the deal and these two dont get hurt. Going once. Going twice." Said Hades as Serena and Mrg shook their heads. "Alright but you swear that Meg doesnt hurt." Said Hercules. Meg looked at Serena in concern but saw that she was giving her a 'i'll be fine. He loves you.' Said Serena then saw Meg looking at Hadws sealing the deal. "Great and by the way your both off the hook." Said Hades snapping his fingers. The smoke got off the girls but meg looked over to Serena and covered her mouth. "Dont tell me." Said Serena looking down to see the dress that Kya and Jyma brought. "Isnt she beautiful? The future queen of Olympus with her actress bestie." Said Hades bringing Serena close to him to do a small dance. "Hades no. You have your deal lets go." Said Serena but was ignored . "What does he mean that Serena?" Said Hercules. "I mean your girl has working for me the whole time and Serena is engaged to me all thanks to you." Said Hades showing the ring. "I hate you." Said Serena being ignored again. "Your lying." Said Hercules looking crushed. "Its the truth Hercules and im so sorry." Said Serena then felt herself fall asleep.
