Klaus's Demigod Daughter

Chapter 15

Mrs. O'Leary came out of the shadows in the underworld.

"Well, uncles of mine, Welcome to the Underworld, the realm of Hades," Thea said, hopping off the beast.

The other two got off as well, "So where do we go from here?" Elijah asked, yelling over the screaming.

"And what is with all the screaming?" Kol asked.

"Those are the souls taht are being tortured, they are in pain. However, we are heading in that direction," Thea said, pointing away from the direction the screaming is coming from, "Let's move before something finds us," she added, then started walking off in the direction she pointed.

Thea pointed out certain places, or where they would end up if they went in certain directions. Finally, they reached a hole, a very dark and evil feeling hole.

"So what should we expect when we get down there?" Kol asked.

"How are we getting down there?" Elijah asked.

"Well, we are going to jump and just fall down there. Don't worry, it'll be easy," Thea answered Elijah first. Then she turned to Kol, "The air is poisonous to breathe, it is also extremely hot and an overall pain," she answered.

"Alright, let's do this," Kol said, jumping down the hole.

"And this is why I decided to bring you and not Rebekah, you'll help keep him in line better than she would," Thea said with a sigh. 

Elijah hummed in agreement.

"Well, see you down there," Thea said jumping down.

Elijah jumped after her.

The two managed to catch up to Kol, "How did you guys manage to catch up to me?" he asked.

"It's Tartarus, time runs differently down here. Besides, you've only been falling for a few seconds, not the several minutes it feels like to you," Thea explained, as they were falling.

After fifteen more minutes of falling, they were able to see the eerie red light at the bottom. After another three minutes, they reached the ground.

"Alright, the first monster is Arachne," Thea said with an extremely slight shudder. As a daughter of Athena, she is scared of spiders; however, after seventy-two years, her fear has become less extreme, especially after dealing with Arachne before.

She pulled out her sword, as did the other three.

"You are not going to want to put those away. Trust me," she said, looking around cautiously.

"A Daughter of Athena. What are you doing down here?" Arachne asked, coming out from behind a few large rocks. Arachne paled when she saw who it was, "It's you, why are you back here again?" she said, a slight tremor in her voice.

"Fates appear to love me. Now, Arachne, do you need a reminder of last time, or can I and my two guests go on our marry way without any issues?" Thea asked, smirking when she saw Elijah and Kol step back a little at the sight of the giant spider lady.

"Y-you may pass. A-al-ll of y-you," Arachne replied, moving back behind her rocks, a bit faster than when she came out.

 "Thank you," Thea called out, then walked on, followed closely by Kol and Elijah.

"How did you manage to make that thing scared of you?" Kol asked.

"And aren't children of Athena rumored to be petrified of spiders, because of what Athena did to Arachne?" Elijah asked, always the smart one.
