Love is different for everyone
Humans find love in the simple things, such as afternoon strolls, weddings and sunset kisses
Waiting for their other soul to come back from war safe
To protect them and love them in return
Two souls winding togethe...

I saw her before I reached her, making my bones ache all the more as I desperately tried to get to her To make sure she was alright. Safe.
"Seph" I said worriedly as the furies stepped aside Rope lay on the floor and she was catching her breath They... they tied her up? They tied my wife up! "Love?" I asked again
She nodded slowly "I am fine, I..." She stopped herself, as she hunched over and was sick on the grass
And Megaera stepped forward to rub her back Whereas I turned to face the two fools that dared to take her in the first place Hercules is talking to one of them?
I approached them, stuck to the rock of forgetfulness Good. They should remain there until they wither away and starve to death. Cowards "You dare to try this foolishness? To take my wife from me? To hurt her!" I shouted, nearing them One cowered away in fear "Please, forgive us" he begged as Hercules stepped back instinctively
I hit the man in the head, striking the other afterwards They cried out in pain It is a fraction of the pain they have yet to come "You will suffer for this. For an eternity until the hands you grabbed her with, wither and wrinkle. Until your vile mouths decay and your eyes can no longer look upon anything let alone my wife!" I shouted angrily
"Hades" Hercules tried as I stepped back "Alecto. Tisiphone. Megaera" I said simply, watching the men eye me hesitantly as the women stepped forward intrigued "Hades, I beg of you for a moment to listen, Theseus, he is my friend, he was merely acting on loyalty, an oath he pledged to his companion here, surely you can see the injustice of this punishment?" Hercules tried
"Save your begging for someone sympathetic enough to care Hercules... show them our unwavering hospitality" I then said to the Erinyes They smirked, they do always like a soul or two to toy with But actual mortals, they excited them beyond mercy and reasoning
And the men began to scream as they played with them. Torturing them... amusing themselves They shall drive the men insane by sundown
"Hades-" "Go home Hercules. I have done you one favour and that is enough. That man has committed a crime and he is not your responsibility" I warned He glanced at 'Theseus' before nodding once and leaving for Charon's boat as his friend pleaded for his help.
I turned my attention back to Persephone and cursed these men even more for dragging my sight off her Even if momentarily The furies had abandoned her in their thirst for justice and she was left sitting on a rock steadying her breathing.
