To Love a Reaper

Chapter Three

  While Diana was confused, she was scared, yet; curious. "We're your real parents'." "You were taken from us, when you were a baby, so; you have no memory of us, of this place, of your real home." "Also, I can help you with your "Special Problem", as Zeus calls it." Hades said. While seeing the truth in his eyes', Diana told Hades, "I trust you." "Also, I want to know why I was cursed." "Because of me, Ares's son, died, or; almost died." "I don't want to go back to Olympus." "I want to stay here." "The boy was trying to hurt you, & you defended yourself, like you were supposed to." "Ares & his kin are disgusting!" Hades said to his daughter, while Persephone calmed her husband down. "I understand, & I agree." Diana said. While Hades had shown Diana around The Underworld, he showed her Tartarus, which; scared her, as he told her; "you never want to wind up here, because this is where the worst of the worst people reside, like Titan Prometheus." "Oh look, there's an eagle now, to take his liver." Hades said, while kicking a demon away from his daughter. While hearing The Titan's cry out of pain, Diana asked; "why is Prometheus tied up, & why is an eagle eating his liver?" Diana asked, as her father explained to her, the crime against the gods', that Prometheus committed, & that was an unforgivable crime; & how Zeus ordered him to bring him Tartarus & have him punished for all of eternity. While walking close to Hades, he had seen his daughter scared, while telling her;  "Tartarus is a scary place, & trust me; no one wants to wind up down here, for, as you can see; it is a place of Eternal Torment." While Hades & his daughter walked out of Tartarus, they then, went to The Elysian Fields'; which, Hades explained to his daughter, where good mortals', wind up; with their loved ones' & if they're alone, they spent eternity in Elysia. After going back to The Royal Palace, Hades was shocked to see Zeus, with his white horse, who was outside of The Iron Gates' of The Underworld, tied to a tree. "You are in so much trouble, young lady!" Zeus told Diana, while Hades said angrily, "how dare you?!" "How dare you take my daughter a second time?!" "How dare you lie to Diana?!" "You liar!" Hades said angrily, while Zeus told Diana, "let's go!" "We'll talk about your punishment, when we get home!" "No." "No, I'm not going back to Olympus, just so I can be locked up like a caged bird, again!" Diana said boldly. While Zeus was angry with rage, Diana told him, "I was told the truth, & only Hades, can help me, & with all due respect, you know it." "Don't you?!" While Zeus knew he was defeated, he told his "daughter", "yes, Hades is your real father, & since you are no longer a child; I'll leave this decision up to you, however; if you do decide to stay here, please note; you can only come to Olympus, if Hades says so." "Also, if you stay here, the only way you'll be able to come to Olympus, is through my say so only!" "Well, I choose, to stay with my real family." "I don't want to be like a bird in a cage, in Olympus, because; being isolated from everyone, is how I felt." Diana said, as Zeus said, "very well". After saying what he needed, Zeus left Diana to be with her real family.
