(Cloud's POV)
I looked around the empty-twisted hallways of Hades' domain. I always hated walking around in the underworld...all these faint moans and floating spirits made me feel uneasy. I stopped dead on my tracks as a curvy-brunette woman approached me. "What do you want?" I said. She smirked and wrapped her her bony arms across her chest. "His-deadliness wants a little chat with you, Romeo." I rolled my eyes and walked right past her. Though she was my only companion around here...I wasn't in the mood to talk to anyone not even my so-called master, Hades. Sometimes I even wonder if my sacriface was worth it but...
"Just hang in there. Someday we'll look back at these hard times and laugh."
That's what she once said to me. Everytime when I think about her...my cold heart is filled with warmth and love. Something I will never recieve once I offer my whole being to darkness but in the light...I will always recieve it. Can I handle the light? I don't know...
"Okay, Romeo, I think it's time that you wake up." I shook my head and saw that Meg's face was 3 inches away from mine. I grunted disgustingly and backed away from a safe distance. "I didn't know I was that close to you." I said while looking the other direction. Meg smiled and patted me on the shoulder. "Don't worry about it, Romeo. So tell me...were you thinking about Aerith just now?" I turned to look at her. She took my sudden reaction as a 'yes' and started giggling. "She's one lucky girl, you know. She has someone who really cares for her." Meg's eyes saddened as she looked at the gate dividing the underworld with the colosieum. "When will you think you'll be joining her?"
I didn't answer. I don't really exactly know when I'll be able to see Aerith.
"Wow! I'm really looking forward to it! Let's ride the airship together, okay? Promise, promise me!"
"I promised her that I would take her on an airship one day..." I whispered. "...she's looking forward to it."
Meg sighed. "The sooner the better. I think she waited enough." She said sadly and led me up the colosieum stairs.
Half-way up the stairs; Hades appeared and took me away from Meg. He ordered her to return to the underworld and stay there. She agreed and I was left alone with the lord of the underworld himself. "Getting a little close with Nutmeg aren't we?" He pointed out.
"No. Don't even think anything is going on between me and her."
Hades' eyebrows shot up. "Oh my bad." He held out his hand and made a ball of gas appear with Aerith's face smiling at me. "I forgot that you're still head-over-heels in love with this cheeky-poo." I swallowed hard seeing Aerith's beautiful face in front of me again. Hades took my reaction as an opportunity and gripped my shoulder with his bony hand. "I heard your little conversation with Nutmeg. All you want is to be with your cheeky-poo, don't you? Well, Spikey, I can fulfill that wish for you."
"Where is this going?"
Hades rubbed his temple and smiled. "No-where. I'm just in a giving mood."
I gave Hades an annoyed look. He stiffened and stepped back to a safe distance. I continued my way to the colosieum gates without looking back at that gloomy bastard behind me. I know he's up to something and I don't want to be part of his little plan...it'll just get me into a bigger debt. But then again... "Let me think about it." With that I closed the colosieum gate behind me. Hades rolled his eyes and cursed under his breath. He hated it when I uttered those 5 words to him; he's not one of those patient-kind of people. When he heard the whizzing sound of a gummi-ship, he hid behind a column and saw the little pest Maleficent told him to get rid of. "Speak of the devil." He whispered to himself.
Author's notes: Well that was the first chapter. I hope it made sense. :P I was kind of in a hurry since I was only allowed a certain amount of time on the computer.
