Quartz P.O.V
After we leave the lab, Drake apologizes for wrecking Xander and J.J's lab. "Oh, that's okay! We never do anything important there anyway!" J.J says. Gaia raises her eyebrow. "The map was in there.". Xander just shrugs and asks "So where are we going anyway?"
When they don't answer, Jet sighs. "Well, we've just given the enemy access to our only hideout!" I say. "I may know a place." Kaylee says quietly. We all look at her. "Jesus! How many places do we have? This is like a really cheap action movie." Drake says, scratching her head.
"Well this one doesn't technically belong to us." She says before the silence gets too long. "Then... who does it belong to?'' J.J asks, even though we know the answer. "Hades. But he lives in Auradon now, never comes back." Kay says quickly. We decide that, yes Hades place is the safest with the pirates on the prowl.
"Come on!" Jet says. We sneak through the alleys, watching out for Harry and Victoria. We run into Gil on several occasions, but he doesn't really care about us. "Oh hi Gil." Drake says, seeing him pass us again. "Ugh. This is sooooooo boring! Jay said that Harry is a 'bad influence' and that he 'didn't accept good'. What does that even mean?" We all look at each other.
"Well, um... it's kind of hard to explain-" I start to say but J.J cuts me off. "It's because Harry is an idiotic piece of-" Gaia slaps a hand over his mouth. Gil looks surprised and says "Well, I'm heading back to Auradon now, so bye I guess." He walks away, and everyone looks at J.J.
"What?" He asks innocently. "Well, we better be going now." (Start playing the music now) We start to walk towards Hades underground hideout.
The Chain
(The entire song is everyone singing.)
Listen to the wind blow
Oh, watch the sun riseRunning in the shadows
Damn your love
Damn your liesBreak the silence
Damn the dark
Damn the lightAnd if you don't love me now
You will never love me again
I can still hear you saying
You would never break the chainAnd if you don't love me now
You will never love me again
I can still hear you saying
You would never break the chainListen to the wind blow
Down comes the night
Break the silence
Damn the dark
Damn the lightAnd if you don't love me now
You will never love me again
I can still hear you saying
You would never break the chainAnd if you don't love me now
You will never love me again
I can still hear you saying
You would never break the chain
You would never break the chainAnd if you don't love me now
You will never love me again
I can still hear you saying
You would never break the chain
You would never break the chainChain, keep us together
Chain, keep us together
Chain, keep us together
Chain, keep us togetherChain, keep us together
Chain, keep us together
Chain, keep us together
Chain, keep us togetherAnd if you don't love me now
You will never love me again
I can still hear you saying
You would never break the chain
You would never break the chain
"Here we are!" Kaylee says, pointing at a big sign that says 'KEEP OUT'. Gaia grins and kicks open the barb-wire fence door thing. "Move it!" She says, herding us inside. The place is huge and empty. The air is musty, and every few seconds the silence is broken by a cough.
"Wow! It echoes!" I say. Everyone looks at me, "wow he's an idiot" etched on their faces. "Oops." I say, wincing. Jet puts a finger to his lips. "Shh! They'll hear us again" He reminds me. We creep down into the area where Hades used to live.
Its even bigger then the tunnels, with a tall ceiling that is lined with rotten wood beams. "Oh cool!" Drake says. Gaia kicks an old fast food box away and sits in a large armchair. "Well, don't just stand there! Sit!" She commands. I sit on the floor a few feet away from her.
"So what's our plan?" Xander asks. Gaia sighs. "We're going to need Phillip and Jericho to help us." She admits. Jet, who has just settled down, bounces back up. "What?! Jericho Frost? No way!" He says, anger in his eyes. "I know, but they can help us better then most." Gaia responds. J.J raises his hand. "Um, I know where Jericho is, and she's not going to help us." He says.
I raise and eyebrow. "Can you take us to her?"
