Dark Hearts (Golden Heart AU)

Chapter Thirteen

~ Chapter one of section two ~

The barrier was locked back in place as soon as Ella and Mal did a head count and made sure everyone they wanted off the isle was off the isle. Or course Head count was the simple terms, they were buys queen. 

Ella did something that angered Mal to no end. She set Hades free, "He's not even close to an okay person."

"He has a Job that Adam stopped him from doing for years, Mal. The souls are probably backed up beyond belief. If you don't wanna come, that's fine, go home and help the others with the boarders." Mal groaned but stomped off.

Ella led herself into Hades Lair looking at the withering forms of Pain and Panic under her Boyfriend's Magic, "Hades." She called through the tunnel. She heard loud barks and followed them only to see Hades asleep on a couch and a record player playing dog barks. "This is sad," the man immediately looked up, "Oh how the king of the underworld has fallen."

"What do you want, sunshine?" Hades actually knew all of the royals pretty well and was on fairly friendly terms with them. He felt for them, to be part of something bigger then yourself and have it upheaval and unjust paranoia an fear, Hades hadn't hurt anyone in a millennia since he tried to kill Hercules he had just taken to doing his job, But he was still locked away here. 

Hades had been Ella's informant, he was a god who was some how trapped by a fairy whose most notable feat was giving a girl a dress and carriage for a few hours. how was it possible that she defeated the god of darkness without using something as equally dark. 

"You're free."

He took off his sunglasses and raised an eyebrow, "How is that even possible?" Ella reached into her coat (well jays, dress coat that he threw off before starting the spell) and pulled out the wand and into the pocket and pulled out the shrunken Scepter of Maleficent, his eyes were wide. He stumbled up and to his feet, stalking towards her, "Where is Maleficent?"

"Jazzy gave her a punishment fit for the mistress of evil." At the look on Hades face she scoffed, "She's alive"

That's all he needed to hear, "I'm going home." he smirked. he really didn't want her in his realm with his wife who actually somewhat cared about him.

"Oh" Ella stopped him "and I know you're a 'ruthless villain'," Those were his words not hers. "But try and make nice with your daughter, If and when her demigod powers come to light she'll need a mentor. And you and I both know you deeply care for her." Hades looked to be contemplating it as he shadow traveled back to his realm back where he belonged.

Ella walked back to maleficent castle where Jazzy and Jay were exhausted. The blond pulled out the wand and Levitated them down and basically carried them back to the bridge. She set them down and locked the barrier back in place Letting Jazzy and Jay Collapse. "That was the most draining experience of my life." Jay huffed. Jazzy nodded along Kneeled on the floor.

Ella hulled the two Up, "Come one Carlos went back with the others to help make the crowns." Ella walked with them slowly to Auradon castle passing many VK's who were looting, scaring, breaking, or harming. "Audrey is gonna have a hard clean up." She said holding Jays hand 

"You're putting Audrey on clean up?" Jazzy asked, laughing.

"Her and a few others, Just until I can think of how to punish them properly for what they did."

When they got back to the castle the grand hall was already cleared. People being let go or Locked up depend on the person and the severity of their crime. Doug and Lonnie were in an Upper dungeon for the time being and would be relocated tonight to Tirulia where Evie and Aaron respectively would decide what to do with their toys. Jane was in Jar Next to Carlos With her hands pressed against the glass, He would decide what to do with her in Agrabah, and Ben was in a lower Dungeon with his parents. Of course there were others but these were the ones who would be entertainment for New rulers.
