An Earth-Shaking roar rang through the air as the moon eclipsed the sun over the enchanted forest and—by extension—a cave and its inhabitants.
Queen of darkness, Maleficent, breathed heavily as the flames of the torches flared up until they licked the ceiling of the cave.
"And here's our little Hellspawn," Hades cooed uncharacteristically as he wrapped their newborn baby up in a small, purple blanket.
"What do they look like? Is it a boy or a girl?" The blonde asked, before adding "is everything normal? No missing toes or fingers or—"
Hades handed over their child before answering her with an eye roll "it's a girl, see for yourself, and everything is normal."
Maleficent shot him a glare, not liking his tone. "Don't you dare use that tone with me—" the baby started to wail, cutting her mother off.
"Oh shhhh... it's okay.. shh, I'm sorry táta was being an annoyance " she said softly, rocking her as Hades protested in the background; his protests falling on deaf ears.
The baby was small and pale as snow with a couple of wavy wisps of purple hair sticking up all over the place on her tiny head. Her eyes shined with tears, glowing green as she scrunched up her little face—calming down slightly. She was hot to the touch.
"Why is she so hot?" Maleficent asked worried for her firstborn child, who hadn't been conceived while she was in dragon form. This was all so new to her.
"Demigods are born hotter than human babies are. Don't worry, it's completely normal. Just ask Zeus. " Hades assured nonchalantly before asking "So, what should we name her?"
Maleficent bit her lip as she stared down at their baby girl, trying to pick the perfect name for her. "How about... Malanie for a first name?"
Hades shrugged "Works for me. Does Bertha work for a middle name?"
Maleficent scrunched up her nose in distaste but kept quiet, really not in the mood for a fight.
"What?" Hades asked, annoyed, after spotting her expression "Bertha is a lovely name!"
"Sure it is," Maleficent replied sarcastically, absolutely exhausted. "So her name is Malanie Bertha Fae—"
Hades, annoyingly, cut her off. "Hang on a minute, why are we giving her Your last name and not mine?"
Maleficent groaned and pinched the bridge of her nose, knowing that she wouldn't be getting any rest anytime soon.
And she was right. She didn't get any rest until she agreed to give the baby both their last names. Changing the name from Malanie Bertha Fae to Malanie Bertha Fae–Athanasiou. Or Just Mal, for short.

BOOM!
CRACK!
BOOM!
CRACK!
Two lightning bolts struck a tree outside of the dark one's castle—causing it to explode as a woman inside of the eerie building screamed in pain before going quiet. It wasn't silent for long, however, because less than two minutes later a small wail rang through the air—bouncing off the castle walls.
Echoing.
"Well, this one has a strong set of lungs on 'im" the dark one commented, wincing as he rocked the small infant.
"Why is Ben crying so loud? Is something wrong?" Belle asked frantically, trying to push herself up—only to immediately regret it as a sharp pain shot through her. Making her feel as if she was being ripped in half and causing her to wince as she grabbed her stomach "Ooof—"
