Almost Empty-handed.

The sword passed through my guts, as a golden tinted blood slowly seeped out, knowing the God's probably insane grip. My hand gripped onto the metallic sword, which I can tell already wasn't any ordinary sword, I plunged my guts deeper in his sword.

Out of my unexpected actions, the God yelled out in a throttle of laughter, "Quite unexpected.. You may go now Kylar.."The God said, as the sword disappeared, my wounds immediately healed.

It was purely a test, and I knew that from the start, even then, I held out my hand as healing energy seeped out of my hand going purely to the God, "Healing me?.. How foolish of you.."The God pointed out but that wasn't it.

As a few seconds just passed by, I pulled back my arm, the God plunged to the floor, he coughed up the infamous golden blood.

"My powers allow me to use healing abilities.. But it also allows me to cost you quite a bit of your health in the process… only strictly for emergencies, but you're a special case.. Isn't it Mr.Skeleton?"I replied as the so-called 'God' turned into the remains of a skeleton caped in a long robe.

The infamous Grim reaper, known as well as the shapeshift God, it all seemed obvious, to his behavior from the way he acted, he made it all too obvious

"You might be a good shape shifter.. But your acting needs some practice.."I replied, as our eyes made contact for a split second before I left.

A large sphere with yells and screams of ghosts and spirits crossed me, it held a slight golden hue, was this it?

Did it really possess the soul of Ray's sister? "Oh you're there!"A slightly hollow but familiar voice said, but It didn't possess any 'physical' body.

"Persephone?.."I asked as I looked around, still failing to find a physical body, "Yep!" Her usually energetic voice replied back.

"I'm just a voice in your head right now, Hades might get a little suspicious. Now, you are supposed to command a soul from that huge orb."

Order a soul?.. Let's see how that goes, "I.. The heir of Hades, will now possess the soul of.. Rem Pernilla.."I commanded the screaming souls.

As a cylinder orb of soul came my way, it held an orangish summer color, before it spoke quite formally. "Ray, are you affiliated with him?"The soul asked as it embodied the voice of a mature somewhat 8 year old.

"Yes will you-"The soul cut me off to talk, "No, I refuse, this haven is enough for me, Ray need's to grow up and stop becoming so obsessed in revving me…"Rem about sighed.

Obsessed? "Are you saying he made multiple attempts to come here and retrieve you?.."I asked as the soul stayed quiet for a moment, "Yes, in fact he made about seven attempts, coming to the cages of souls himself, but I refused to ever show myself till today."Rem elaborated.

There's your answer then Ray, but i can't leave empty-handed after making a promise can i?

"Instead, I would like you to carry a gift for my brothers.. In return you or anyone will not seek for me.."Her tone was calm and mature for an 8 year old, is what i thought.

The soul, somehow, handed me ribbons, didn't think solid objects were allowed in the haven. The ribbons were each one of a kind, the first one was dotted with golden laces, and the second was dotted with white snowflakes. Are these really suited for male teeangers?

"Alright, I will.. Hopefully I will never show my face here to seek your soul again.."I bowed down to the soul, as I watched its floating orb leave my sight.

And here then I was, leaving with bows instead of an eight year old girl… I looked down at the ribbons trying to find out what was so special about them.

I could tell that one of them was for her brothers, Jay and Ray despite being twins, they act nothing alike.

"It'd be a long way to go.."Persephone said, as I nodded in reply as if she was really there, though I couldn't tell what time it was because of the never changing sky in the underworld.

I could tell that it was going to take longer to go back than getting here. I looked at the soaring red and depressing skies of the underworld, as I continued to walk my path.
