Ashes and Betrayal

Dear Diary,
Oh gods, I wrote it, didn't I? I said I won't be Dear-Diary-ing in this Diary. It's just too mainstream.
*Erases Dear Diary*
Sorry, won't happen again.
Anyways, look at what I found out? I'm a demi-god. Isn't it cool?! Well, no. Not in my case, it isn't. See, just last week, Neo - my ghost friend, literally - just told me everything I needed to know. Yes, that I'm a demi-god and my dad's Hades. Wow. Such joy. Maybe that's why a few people - alright, EVERYONE doesn't like me. He said that's a Hades thing. *Rolls eyes* He said that I radiate danger to them. But they don't feel scared. They'll just think I'm unlikable whatsoever, and it was the Mist.
Well, the Mist is something that creates boundaries between the mortal world and - well, our world. It lets people see what they wanted to see of an event, in which to us, we see what's really happening. As in, when a monster appear - let's say a harpie - they'll likely to see, uhh. Neo said they're likely to see a lady or a huge bird, either of the two. And that whatever harm they did to them, it just didn't work.
So, that's how the Mist work.
Alright, gods, it's almost midnight and I still didn't feel sleepy. *Sigh* Guess I feel dread over the fact that Dad is sending me to California where he could "protect" me.
Oh, I haven't told you that part yet. It's also last week when Neo introduced himself to me. He said Zeus was looking for me and wanted to kill me. Told you, it sucks to be me. But that didn't happen to any other demi-gods. Somehow, being a son or daughter of Hades is forbidden, and I think Dad knew that very well. I wonder what he's up to.
Anyways, I needed to stop writing now. Neo might caught me again not sleeping. 'Til next time I see you. Just thinking about this whole demi-god thing felt like a long journey to me that it weighed heavily on my shoulders. Or was it sleep calling me?
Good night.
