I hated listening to this day in and day out. It wasn't that I was pissed at her, I had grown so fond and close of my little girl since the rape, then I had in her fifteen years of living. It was her screams that Persephone and I had to endure nightly. My daughter screaming and begging her uncle to stop hurting her sickened me. I would slip into her room, lay next to her as I waited for her to realize it was me and she was having a horrible dream, and then I would hold her to until she fell asleep again. Soon that wasn't enough, none of us could quiet her, could soothe her, she began to get violent, and while we thought the absence of her pale green skin was her godhood being taken from her, we were proved wrong. She could choose now when to release that power and she chose to do it when she was asleep. If my wife had not been an Goddess of the earth and healed the poison and toxins our daughter released, I would be a dead God.

Her friend Herma started visiting the underworld more, which I fucking hated. One because she was the daughter of that bitch Aphrodite, and  because I hated anyone coming into my domain. I was the fucking God of the Underworld, I was Hade's, God of Death, and I was given this title because of my jealous dick of a brother, who lied and cheated me out of the throne of Olympus. I didn't want to put up with anymore of his fucking offspring or his offspring's offspring, anymore than I fucking had too. Except for Persephone, his daughter, for my beautiful wife I would do anything for. Anyway Herma could calm my daughter down better than we could so Persephone provided her with a pill that allowed Herma to touch our daughter, to keep her safe and calm and it worked for a while. It just wasn't enough and my daughter was miserable for it. She had killed a lot of my guard because of not being able to control her emotions.

"Please Are's stop, don't, No" I gripped my sheets tightly and pulled them off as I looked down at my wife who was wide awake.

"I can't take this anymore Hades, I don't know what to do anymore" I looked down at my wife's wet face, tears sliding down her beautiful pink cheeks and sighed, before leaning down and kissing them all away.

"I will fix this" She nodded her head as I got up and went into my office where I got a syringe and went down to my daughter's room. 

"No Phobos, Deimos, I'll kill you bo............................" All of a sudden the noise stopped and I entered her room, to see her on the floor, the covers on the other side of the room, her body slick with sweat and blood from where she had dug her nails in to deal with the pain. I slowly walked over to her and gently gripped her arm and pushed the syringe in to draw blood. I quickly picked her up, put her in the bed and under the sheets as she mumbled and whimpered. Kissing her forehead I whispered sweet words in her ear of the death of those who hurt her.

"I'll fix this, I promise" I heard her door open and saw Herma come in slowly. I tried not to glare, but you would be a fool to not be able to see the interest she had in my child. 

"Umm, Hades, Hi, I was just going to watch her sleep" I smirked at that and ran my fingers through my hair.

"That doesn't sound creepy at all, don't touch my daughter, child, she doesn't need to be hurt again" Herma looked at me before her body morphed into Hermaphroditus. She became taller, a little on the lanky side, a man but with feminine beauty.

"I just want to protect her Hades, nothing more, I don't know if she feels anything of what I feel for her yet, and I'm not rushing her" I nodded my head as he moved to sit by her.

"She likes it better when you're a woman, besides me, it's hard for her to have a man's touch right now" He changed back into a woman and laid beside her. Leaving from her room I went the entrance of the underworld, where my faithful dog, Cerberus awaited.. What had started out as a cute miniature puppy, was now a huge black dog as big as a school bus, three heads, sharp teeth and black irises that were surrounded by blood red sclera. Going towards his humongous body, and between one of his three heads, I took the syringe and injected it into him. I had made him to protect me and do my will towards other Gods, now he would protect my child, Helena. Cerberus yelped in pain as he shifted from dog to human.

"What the fuck was that Hades" I frowned at him as he fell to his knees, gripping his chest  and abdomen in pain.

"That was the final test, I need you to make sure nothing ever happens to my daughter again, I need you to hunt those who hurt her and protect her from it ever happening again, am I understood Cerberus" He nodded his head as he threw up something green and vile that ate through the grounds in seconds.

"Yes Hades" He changed back into the humongous dog that he is and awaited my instructions.

"Phobos and Deimos, they are what you start with, I want you to bring them to me after you've had your fun, it's time they truly understood the meaning of Panic and Fear"
