Holly only made her way back to her sister and friends hours later, "Where did you go?" She asked a slight angry edge in her voice. Jay, Evie and Carlos' eyes all widened; Holly was their leader for a reason. Yeah, they were both the daughters of Hades, but Holly was the more dangerous one, the one that kept most of her godhood. The aspects that made a demigod that much more powerful than a fey Holly still had. Godly ichor still flowed through her; she had complete control over her abilities were as Mal's only responded to her anger. She had no Aura and little power compared to her siblings. She was the weaker one here and she seems to have forgotten that. 

The demigoddess raised an eyebrow, "I went to pray with Ben, is that a problem?" 

Mal bared her fangs and growled, "we have a job to do." It wasn't a threat it was more of a frustrated gesture which is why Holly didn't start a full-on duel.

"I've very aware and getting the prince to trust us is part of that," her hair smoked. Holly tried desperately to keep her anger from rising. "I know what I'm doing Mal. How is it any different than when you went with Hayden to fix them." 

"That was different," she said rolling her eyes. "I was appeasing the gods. We have a job to do, our mother-" 

"Your mother," Holly corrected. "She's not mine, she's never been." She walked into the room and to her brother and dog. Hadie handed her Cerberus hoping to appease her. 

The fey rolled her eyes, "Whatever you want to call her, she wants the wand, and we have to bring it to her."

Hadie raised an eyebrow himself looking a lot like his sister, "We don't have to do anything," he gestured to himself and Holly. "This is your mommy issues and moral complex." Mal looked at her brother offended. The other three watched the siblings with rapid attention. Carlos scanning the room trying to decide what the best course of action would be if they started fighting. "Our mommy issues just make us defiant." 

"Prayer appeases the god to Mal," Holly drove the conversation back to its origin before this got worse, the three of them could go for days. Holly and Mal's fights were the known to destroy parts of the isle and that was without their magic. "How do you think they feel being forgotten by most people? They fade if they are forgotten. Death is a scary thing for an immortal, especially since they can't go to the underworld." She raked her fingers thought the soft fur on Spots back. "We can argue back and forth about who wasted more time all day. We need to get that damned wand; did you find the spell." 

Mal huffed, "yeah I found it." 

"Good, lets roofie a couple of princes," Holly cringed at her own words but rectified her look quickly. She hated this idea. Freewill was a lie and Holly could easily blame her actions on the three goddesses but something in her told her that this was a bad idea and that it was up to her if she was going to go through with it or not.

Hadie knew where the kitchen was, Chole and Hye had taken him earlier in the day for ice cream, Hadie's new favorite snack. The smallest demigod made his way to the freezer and grabbed Chole's carton of Ice cream and a disposable cup.

Mal huffed out a puff of smoke, her brother and sister weren't taking this seriously and it was starting to bother her. She needed to calm herself, of course they wouldn't be too happy about a world built in the evil Fey's image she wasn't the best mother, not by a long shot. She was bad enough to her and was downright neglectful to Holly and Hadie. 

She sighed and started grabbing everything she needed and handed her sister the bowl so she could mix it all together. "All right. It says that we still need one tear, and I never cry," Holly said looking over at the book.
