My name is hades god of the underworld. however right now I'm taking a break from all the god stuff and having a little fun on earth and by having I mean causing and by fun I mean mischief.
I'm flying around the world enjoying the wind blowing in my face and the peace of the midnight sky     When suddenly I fly over a town called beacon hills and see a young looking boy on top of an old clock tower he looks like he's about to jump I fly down towards him and land next to him without him noticing me. with a closer look at his face I can see he has dark hair and hazel eyes but there's more to them it looks like there broken and sad. I think for a moment and I'm puzzled I'm thousands of eons old and not once have I cared for anyone but something about this boy makes me want to save him so I decide to follow this new instinct and I speak for the first time in five minutes of being there.
"Sorry I don't mean to interrupt but what are you doing" I say making him startle and almost fall he looks at me with fear and confusion in his eyes.
"I'm trying to kill myself what does it look like" the boy says in a shaky tone.
"Ah of course carry on" I say nonchalant waking away
"Your not gonna try and stop me" the boy says
I turn around with a questioning look
"Why would I do that i ask if you want to kill yourself go for it it's your choice"
He looks at me funny and straightens up about to jump lifting one foot off the ledge
"WAIT....." I scream making him startle again
"What what is it" the boy says in a rushed tone
"While I have you here would you mind if I asked you a few questions it's just I've always been curious about it" I ask
"Um sure I guess" he reply's with a shaky breath
"Great okay why do you want to kill yourself" I ask
He looks at me confused then sad and answers "I have nothing left to live for my friends kicked me out of their group my dads dead my mom died when I was seven and the girl I'm In love with can't be with me cause her ex won't allow it"
I look at him confused but then Realised what I asked
"Oh no I know that that's like the main reason people kill the self's what I want to know is why you don't just take revenge on the people that hurt you I mean they get hurt you win and you live" I ask
"Because I'm not strong enough they're...... powerful" he reply's
I walk closer to him now serious
"What if I could give you power" I ask
He looks at me "what kind of power"
"The power to do anything you want..... with the addition of some rules"
"What's the catch" he asks
I smile "step away from the ledge"
He nods hesitantly and steps away and we make our way down once on the ground we go to a cafe and I begin to explain things.
