Nyx here. I want to say I wrote this because I was in a bad mood and I like writing depressing stuff when I'm in a bad mood. 1. Lecture from dad. (Luckily it was one of his shorter ones but THOSE THREE HOUR LECTURES THOUGH!) 2. Personal. 3. Personal. Enough? Good. I like Dynamis. Thank you. Hope you enjoy and lets begin.

Dynamis: WHY DO YOU LIKE TO TORTURE ME NYX? *Dies*

Me: *Shrugs* As I was s-

Pluto: *Rushes over* This I have to read.

Me: *Whacks him on the head with a katana* DIE PLUTO I HATE YOU! Oh and the songs here are Drag On and Moonlight.

"You have to take Hades Curse, Dynamis. It is your duty." He vaguely remembered the voice whispering in his mind. He looked with apprehension at the dark gold pendant with a ruby gem in the middle. He could sense overwhelming negative energy radiating from the center.

He looked up at his mentor. "Do I... do I have to?"

There was no reply. Sighing, he gently accepted the pendant, slipping it around his neck, concealing it beneath his white robe, listening as the heavy gold pieces clinked noisily, seeming to weigh him down more than ever. And then the torment started.

Whispers, horrible whispers that clawed at him, shadows surrounding every corner he tried to turn to. Indigo energy tearing him apart mentally, whispering never-ending insults that broke him. His vision was obscured by darkness, and someone- himself with a manic grin on his face and deep purple robes- appeared in front of him, making the boy gasp in shock. The other child's skin was coated in a ghostly glow, and when Dynamis tried to touch him, his hand passed right through.

And then a hand made out of black shadows swirled and curled itself around his throat, and he couldn't breath. He screamed as pain filled his small body and he sank into the darkness.

A bird in agony
A dying shadow
I'm like a boat
Taken in the wind

That was the only time it had happened.

Dynamis was now strong enough to block out the sadistic voice of Hades that tried to break him everyday. In fact, he almost forgot about the curse- almost. Every time he felt the icy cold pieces of metal clinking, he flinched, knowing that it could return one day.

But otherwise, he was fine, going about his regular duties every day. But the day after Gingka came, the day after the group had been attacked by Nemesis's minions, it became different. At first, it was minor, only the occasional nightmare. He would wake up in a cold sweat, and remind himself that it was OK, that he was safe at the temple.

Then he had been assaulted with visions of Hades. Blurry images of a large, shadowy figure reaching for his throat, and black and purple all around. He could still live with it.

And when Pluto came...

He had another of his several visions, but this time it was different. It was pitch black all around him, and indigo energy freezing him in place, numbing his body. And then, to his horror, large, block letters started to form out of purple flames in front of him. He read the message letter by letter, and a strangled cry caught in his throat. He wanted to run, but he was trapped. The whispers finally returned, Nemesis mocking him for being useless. And finally, the words were completed. His eyes widened in horror.

HADES

IS

COMING

Something is coming
Whispering
The song of darkness
Like a bell

The next few minutes passed in a blur. He still remembered seeing Pluto and talking briefly with him, and he brought up the dreaded subject of the curse. Dynamis felt the pendant pulse eagerly, sensing a descendant of Hades. He gripped the red gem tightly, and grimaced when he felt the darkness strengthening.

Purple energy shot out and engulfed him, and he was back in the darkness. He started to run, but the darkness slowly but surely neared him.

A voice
Underground echoes
I'm like a colour
That faded away

Wisps of energy shot out, but he narrowly managed to dodge them all.

I have to escape... or, o-or else... Horrific visions filled his mind, causing him to scream in pain as he clutched his head. I don't want to hurt anyone...

A smoky tendril curled around his ankle and tripped him, and he collapsed on the floor. He looked up at the monstrous, soulless red eyes glaring menacingly at him. He shrunk back, closing his eyes. Iciness enveloped him, and all he saw was a bleak purple.

I think I'll enjoy being in charge for a while. The voice was deep and rusty, as the shadowy blob took a human form- the dark version of himself. He towered over the teen who stared at him with wide, guileless eyes, begging him to stop. JUST STOP IT! PLEASE! The dark figure seemed amused as it neared Dynamis.

"I must say... for someone as useless as you... I can still feed on your soul..."

"You're a pathetic, star-gazing fool. The curse of Hades will bind you... And slowly devour you from the inside!"

"Just give up... This is a battle you can't win, Dynamis..." the last word was said with clear distaste. Dynamis gasped as he felt something clamp down firmly on his hands and feet. He saw jet black chains binding him in the darkness. He struggled to break free, but was only rewarded by electric shocks.

"A game of fate that you can't outrun... I'll break your soul to shreds so that you can't even look at yourself without imagining you as a monster!" The voice roared. Dynamis covered his ears and whimpered, pleading with him to shut up. STOP TALKING! JUST STOP!

The black under him rippled and changed into a murky purple, dragging him underneath and swallowing him completely. I can't win, he finally admitted to himself as wave after wave of pain and guilt racked his body as his white robes were stained with a dark purple.

The song of darkness
Nearer
I know that death
Is coming

He remembered his past, memories of darkness and sorrow, a disconcerting blur of images that flashed in front of his eyes.

He sang softly, sadly, his voice rich with emotion.

"Where the wind stands still, there's an emerald hill

And I'm standing here, alone.

"Where the dark trees bow to the higher ground
Where the grass has never grown.

Where it's dark, and cold,
And the scattered stars are the only light that I know,
Oh, but they tell me that I'm home..."

And then green electricity flooded his system and he felt himself slowly fade into oblivion as a hazy black shroud fell over him and he slipped into unconsciousness. His eyes were closed in shame.

A stormy sea
And massive clouds
I'm like the ashes
Like a waning glow

I'm sorry, Gingka...

"I know I'm dying
Screaming
The sound of darkness
Like a bell"

And the voice whispered one final, tormenting insult before everything went black.

You're one of us now.
