Amelia's POV

Today seemed off... The villagers would look at me with dirty looks. The children would run away terrified. I didn't understand what was wrong. But i tried to brush it off and do as I usually did everyday. Half the day went by, the chief and his men came towards my farm. Something isn't quite right. He never comes to my farm, usually he never leaves his home. I how down in respect towards the chief of the village... only if I knew.

"Amelia Demetrios, you have hereby been sentenced to thy death for the crimes of witchcraft and corruption against our scriptures." Said the right hand of the chief leaving me in a shock. "W-what?!" I exclaimed. I didn't know what this was about, witchcraft? corruption against the scriptures? "I  haven't done no such thing! To say otherwise has got to be some sort of a sick joke! My family has served this village for centuries. None of my blood shall ever go against the scriptures let alone do such things as witchcraft!" I stood my ground as I watched the chief send his men towards me. They just grabbed me before I could move and started dragging me towards the center of the village.

Kuro's POV
Something feels off today. I swear i sense danger but it's not towards myself.. "Hey little goddess" said an annoyingly familiar voice. "Apollo.." I answered unpleasantly. I swear this guy got on my nerves. "You're missing all the fun today?" He asked holding in a chuckle. "Fun? What are you blabbering about now?" I started getting angry at his words. What in the great heavens is he on about now. "Have you seen that little mortal of yours? I think she got into quite the trouble.." He chuckled and walked towards the village. "AMELIA!" I ran fearing what this beast of a god might have done to her.

I arrived to a flaming scene. Amelia strapped to a wooden stick twice her size and wheat under her feet. The villagers with sticks wrapped in bandages at the tips which were set on fire. I called out to her and tried to reach her but Apollo got to me. He is stronger since I am still not a full goddess yet. Amelia saw me and yelled to look away. How can she try to protect me when she's about to die unfairly. I desperately screamed for them to stop, to figure out what truly has happened but to no avail. "AIM AND FIRE" Yelled the chief of the village. "NOO" I watched as they burned her alive. My lover, my soulmate I dare say. The one who made my worries slip away and bring a sunny sky on my reign. I dropped to the ground as her desperate screams and cries played in my mind. I was helpless and weak. If only I had stayed with her that day. She would've lived....

Apollo's pov

I'm claiming victory this time. That mortal is no longer in my way... "K-kuro?".. What is this aura? It's gloomy yet terrifyingly cold. Kuro no longer had that sparkle in her eyes, they were as dull as the void. So empty yet full of anger and dispair. I watched frozen as Kuro went on a Rampage through the whole village. Murdering everyone on sight. Burning the village to the ground until there was no one left. Not the men, not the women nor the children. No one remained. I tried to speak but this anger seemed to expand her power. She turned towards me with her arms fading from her pale skin into blackened skin almost like the night sky. Her left hand had claws and her eyes glowed. Her lega also had that fading to black effect and wings were on her back. She was sure to kill me until Hades and Zeus popped put of nowhere. "KURO"Hades called for her and she stopped. That day something awoke inside of her. And now all I can think is.... "Did i go too far?"...
