*DING*

"I'm coming," a feminine voice yells out, muffled behind a door. Footsteps could be heard leading up to the door, then the door opens. A lady with brown hair that were in curls was in the front door door frame. She stood shocked as she looked at who ringed the doorbell. "Prometheus!" She screamed, "What are you doing back so early?"

"Mom," he said slightly tearing up, he rushed to her, hoping to get a hug back from her. A hug that would last forever. It only lasted 2 seconds, before she welcomed him in. The house was mostly empty, the complete opposite of most chaotic days.

"Where is everyone," he asked.

"They all went off to summer camp. While Heracles, Athena, you know the whole older bunch of them went off to work," his mom said closing the door behind her. "Oh great news! Heracles got a massive job offer to go hunt some radioactive beast. If he comes back, he will be level 30 or even more if the job is even more dangerous!"

'He could die, but she is so happy about it. Would I be the same if I didn't experience what happened in New America? Happy that a chance my brother could die would lead to him being more successful,' Prometheus thought as his stomach began to turn.

"Mom, I think I'm going to turn in early."

"Early? It's noon sweetheart."

"Still, I just don't want to be bothered at the moment. I'll come down for dinner."

Prometheus briskly walked to his room, leaving his mother speechless. She walked to the living room, where the youngest child, Hypnos, watched an animated television show while sitting on the couch. She sat down next to Hypnos, picking him up and smiling, she played with him for a bit before starting to talk to him. "What am I going to do Hypnos? I want to bring everyone closer together, but I doubt any of your siblings know your name. It's okay, mother loves you."

She hugs Hypnos, causing him to giggle at first, then cry a few seconds later. She put him back down on the couch to let him continue watching his cartoon. It didn't take long for him to fall asleep and for a ring to come at the door. She picked up Hypnos, putting him in a crib that was nearby and covering him up with his favorite blanket.

She rushed to the door as the doorbell was rung again. "I'm coming!" She opened the door, once again surprised who had came, then became excited. "Why hello there. What brings you back here?"

A man stood at the door, "If I recall correctly your name was Morgana Morgan correct?"

"Yes I am."

"I came here two days ago with a job offer for your son. Prometheus, is he here today or is he still on his school trip?"

"Oh, he's here today, he doesn't want to be bothered at the moment though, but you are welcomed to come in if you want. I'll pour you some tea."

Morgana runs to the kitchen to prepare some tea as the man walks in her home, closing the door behind him. He walks through the house, eyeing every bit of detail as he can. Family photos, awards on the walls, hunter gear along the wall, and even little Hypnos sleeping soundly in his crib. While he was staring at Hypnos, Morgana came in with two cups of tea. She set them on the coffee table in between the couch and TV.

The man rose from being bent over the baby crib. "Where is Prometheus to be exact," the man asked, walking over to the tea that was on the table and drinking it in one gulp. Surprised, Morgana drinks a sip, then talks, "He's up in his room right now."

"Can I go up to visit him myself?"

"I don't know, he said he didn't want to be bothered."

The man stares at Morgana with a seductive look, causing her to become flustered. "How old are you miss? How many kids do you have?"

She jumped, 'What a strange question,' she dismissed it and answered anyway.

"I'm 42 years old. I have 13 children, my oldest is 26."

"Ah, an early starter. Which child was Prometheus?"

"The 7th, he's quite precious. Of course they are all precious to my heart, but with all the recent news in New America. I got worried about him, that he might get caught in the explosion."

The man walked over to Morgana, placing his hand on her shoulder. "Listen, you are a wonderful mother. He is safe back at home now. I would hate to drag him away, but this job offer will bring great fortune on your family. I have connections with a noble you see."

"Who is this noble you have connection with," Morgana says flirtatiously.

"I am the noble," the man says smiling.

*KNOCK, KNOCK*

Morgana knocks on Prometheus door. "Open up Prometheus, you have a visitor," there was silence. Morgana turned to the man who was right next to her. "He's just asleep, he'll wake up if I shout louder." She bangs on the door, "PROMETHEUS DENZEL MORGAN! WAKE UP! YOU HAVE A VISITOR!"

The man covered his ears, "Denzel," he asked.

"The name of my first boyfriend," Morgana replied without delay.

The man uncovered his ears as the door opened wide, "What mom! I said I didn't want to be-" Prometheus was wiping his eyes from the sudden burst of light in his eyes. However they quickly open when he sees who the man is. "Dr. Blythe," he says under his breath. With a quick motion, Dr. Blythe opens his lab coat, pulling out a syringe and stabbing Morgana. "Mom," Prometheus yelled out reaching for her.

Prometheus fell to his knees, he felt death clawing at his legs, and a cold iron on his neck. "Don't move Prometheus. Now, you're going to listen to me, or I will kill your beautiful mother and you're little brother."
