ANILLO NUEBE

"No this is wrong, go get dress now," Hades stated and turn his back on her. He can sense the hurt in her eyes that he wanted to hug and hush her to tell her that he's sorry.

He clutches the doorknob and gets out of her room. Hades grimaced at his actions, he didn't know that this will be going to happen, he was supposed to predict what will happen next but he didn't. Why all of a sudden she kissed him? That was the question running on Hades mind.

As he walks into his room, he touches his lips and remembers her soft lips landed in his. Those luscious red lips that he wanted to taste more and intensely but it was not the right time. He could wait more but if this is how she behaves he didn't know what to do. His room was built on what he had planned, there's a small kitchen, a large sofa, and a flat-screen TV, bookshelves that are full of thick books, a king-size bed near in the glass wall. He didn't want light in his room, he prefers using lampshade and scented candles.

He walks into the small kitchen and prepares his favorite black coffee. He wanted to think. As soon as he's done, he walks into his seat near the glass wall where he preferred and took a deep sigh. This day had been threatening for him, Lissana is dangerous for him. He traced his fingers into his hair and slowly put his cup of coffee in a small table near him. He closes his eyes and sighed, he wanted to rest.

Berlin 1870 11:31 pm

"Prince Hades please we need to run away, to banish from here. King Helios and his men are on their way," Michael his assistant pleaded while holding his arms. He was staring at him with melancholy and concern in his eyes.

"My prince we lack much time now. Prithee grants me a word on what to do," Michael exclaimed and there was despair in his eyes.

"I saw it, I saw the bomb exploded and he's dead," Hades gritted his teeth and sweat was dripping in his forehead. He could not believe that he is still alive.

"I saw it too my prince yet we're not sure that he is dead, we didn't see his body. We run aroint at that time, we don't hast evidence. And now they're here and we need to go."

Michael didn't wait for Hades to response instead he walks in the safe and took grenades and guns, enough for the both of them to carry. He pulled Hades out of the wall bricks we're he was peeking into a small whole. There he sees small lights of fire going in their direction, they are near and they are a lot of men, a hundred men ready to kill and ready to die. Michael gave thanks to the deities that all of their people have evacuated. He looks at his prince, he was incredibly intelligent and very wise.

"We need to go," Hades stated in a cold tone of voice. He was wearing a long black coat that was perfectly fitted in his height and along with it was a combat boot.

"Yes, my prince."

They hurried to the mystical route. They are the only one who knows it exists. They can't trust anyone. Michael hurriedly places his hand into a brick and pulled a small granite rock inside of the brick. There, a dark path welcomed them, there we're cab webs and rotten rats and snakes. It was a long long time ago since they used this path.

"We need to hurry," Michael said and lighted a torch for them to see in the dark. This tunnel is a long way. They rush entering and instantly closes the wall not leaving any traces.

They hurried to walk and only the sound of rats, snakes and their footsteps they can only hear until they spotted a light, telling they are near. Hades, on the other hand, had a discernment that something was wrong. It was indeed quite that it was supposed to be somethings not like this. The tunnel was supposed to be echoing with shouts and banging, pounding, hitting and crashing but none. As there bodies stroke the light outside, Michael froze and Hades instantly stare at him and Hades slowly looks at the direction where Michael is looking at.

Pile of men, they are now surrounded by a pile of men, their guns were now pointing at them and ready to fire. King Helios stands at the center of his men with a sly smile in his face. His hands were in his pocket while staring at them smiling.

"Fool," King Helios said as he walks into their direction.

"The next time you have to kill me plant millions of bombs please Prince Hades," King Helios stated and laugh at his last words.

"Heel!" King Helios shouted and turn his back on them.

"We can't die, my prince," Michael whispered enough for his prince to hear.

"You won't die, Michael, trust me. You may agonize and bleed now but you will be alive, all you have to do is trust me. Look at their eyes as they shot you, they will remember you."

"Aim!" King Helios shouted and guns of his men sounded and pointed their gun to the target.

"Fire!" As soon as King Helios shouted those words, Michael hurriedly runs in front of Hades and took all of the shots. Blood came out from his mouth and smiled at his prince.

"I trust you," Michael whispered while blood spitting out from his mouth.

"Safe!" King Helios gritted his teeth and roared again.

"Aim!" they reload and their guns were now pointing at him.

"Fire!"

Hades was sweating as he opens his eyes. It was again a dream. A dream that he wanted to take vengeance, that keeps his heart in wrath.
