Note: I was planning to post two chapters at the same time, but this month was terrible. I want to at least post a chapter before the month ends. I'm still working on the next chapter.
"Hey, wait a minute, brother. Didn't we see your kids before this?!" Zeus asked.
The King of the Gods' exclamation made the rest of the deities fall silent.
Hades's anger vanished, replaced by confusion. "What do you mean, Zeus?"
"Remember when Chaos reappeared to show us our children from different universes and their powers? I think the di Angelos were shown to us!"
At this, Hades's visible eye widened, and his entire being froze.
Suddenly, the memory came rushing back to him.
He remembered seeing his son, Nico, summoning an entire army of skeletons against his enemies. Then came the image of his daughter, Bianca, commanding the shadows against her foes.
Hades stared ahead in disbelief.
"How..." he whispered.
His hands slowly clenched.
"How could I forget?"
The realization hit him like lightning.
"My own children..." Hades muttered, his voice trembling. "How could I possibly forget my own children?"
His breathing became uncharacteristically heavy.
"I saw them. I saw their powers. I saw their faces, and yet somehow I—"
He stopped and grabbed his head.
"How could I forget them?!"
The gods looked on with concern as Hades began to lose his composure.
"I am their father!" he shouted. "How could I forget my son and daughter?!"
"Hades, please calm down. It's okay," Rhea said gently.
"I should have remembered!" Hades continued, his voice filled with frustration and guilt. "They are my children! How could something so important simply slip from my mind?!"
"Hades."
Hades looked at his mother.
"This viewing has already been a lot for all of us to take in," the Titaness of Motherhood continued. "You only recently discovered that you have children in different universes. You have been trying to process everything that has happened. It is understandable that you might not remember every detail. You simply forgot something during an overwhelming moment. Even gods forget once in a while."
The God of the Underworld slowly exhaled.
The tension in his body gradually faded, and his expression softened.
"You're right, Mother," he finally said.
He looked back toward the screen.
"I've only just learned that they exist. I suppose I was too overwhelmed to fully comprehend everything I saw."
Rhea smiled reassuringly. "And now you remember."
Hades nodded. "Yes. Now I remember."
New title appears on the screen:
The Vice Principal Gets A Missile Launcher
Everyone stared at the title in disbelief.
"No way that monster gets a missile launcher when he was already shooting projectiles at my niece!" Zeus yelled in shock.
