The Legend of Riptide

The Madness

Sam knew right away that he was going to save his father. He was already half way to his house when he saw them. There were 10 Roman soldiers raiding his house for anything useful. When he got there, not long after killing a few soldiers, he cleared the house of the enemy and couldn't find his father anywhere. Then he heard a rumble from his room and went in there. Juleases had beaten a Roman soldier to death with a hammer he had made ten years before. "I knew it would come in handy some day." Juleases muttered with blood trickling down his forehead. "Father we must go, now." Sam responded. "Yes, you are right." And they left the house. They were to the gate of the city when Hades appeared. He looked the same but was all healed now. "Sam, you silly boy. You really think I would let you leave with your father? He could help you stop me in the future, but he won't." Hades said coldly. "Why not?" Sam asked determined. Hades crept closer, and before Sam knew it, it was too late. Hades had stabbed Juleases with a long golden staff that had a weird symbol at the top. "Because he will be dead! Hahaha!" Hades evil laugh was enough to drive someone insane. "Now boy, what you will do in the future will cause great catastrophe. The madness you will cause is unbearable! The Madness!" Hades looked evil as ever, with those dark eyes and the flames coming off of him. "Why?" Sam asked, trying hard not to cry. "Why did you do this?" "Theres to much to tell you now, but in the future, we shall meet again, and I will destroy you then to prove my worth to the gods and show them that it was a mistake to throw me into the underworld!" And with that, Hades disappeared into nothing, and Sam was alone.
