A/N: I don't really have an update schedule at the moment, and even if I did sometimes I wouldn't follow it as I have school and such. But on Wednesday, Thursday, and Fridays I don't have that many classes even though I'm in middle school still. On Wednesday nights and Saturdays I have dance so don't expect updates on those days. I'll try to update once a week and if I have time maybe more.  So I hope you enjoy this chapter. Have a good rest of your day and if you need to talk about anything I'm open!

"What does that mean?" Persephone asked.

"It's the sound a train makes, symbolizing the railroad." Elizabeth said.

[HERMES and Chorus]

Chugga chugga chugga chugga

Chugga chugga chugga chugga

[HERMES]

Once upon a time there was a railroad line

Don't ask where, brother don't ask when

It was the road to Hell, it was

It was a world of gods...and men!

It's an old song

[Chorus]

It's an old song!

[HERMES]

It's an old tale from way back when

It's an old song

[Chorus]

It's an old song!

[HERMES]

And we're gonna sing it again

"How old is our tale exactly?" Orpheus asked.

"Well it's 2020, and the first tellings of this story were in the year 530 B.C. so it would be about 2550 years old."

"Wow." he said.

(spoken)

Gods and men, a'ight?

We got some gods in the house tonight!

(sung)

See, on the road to Hell there was a railroad line

And there were three old women all dressed the same

And they was always singing in the back of your mind

Everybody meet the Fates!

Everyone's attention turns to the fates, but they still don't say anything and just give a small nod of approval

(Applause FATES bow)

[HERMES]

And on the road to Hell there was a railroad line
