Zayn

The black mist had separated and somehow I was now standing, instead of climbing? I heard some evil laughter in the distance. I froze feeling fear course through me.

"Funny how the son of the underworld, is afraid of death" A voice which would haunt my nightmares forever murmured in my ear.

I spun around, no one there...

"Who's there?" I shouted trying to sound brave but failing miserably. I heard a chuckle near me then a trickle of fear ran down my spine as I saw the mist gather together to form, a shape, a person, my father.

But I'd seen the mist form him, he wasn't Hades.

"You wern't meant to be born Zayn, did you ever wonder why your family hated me?" Hades said mockingly. I didn't say anything, I just gaped at it. The illusion of Hades sneered "Did you ever hear of what happened to your baby sister? Did your mother ever tell you what happened?"

I shook my head feeling sick.

The illusion of Hades said "I killed her, I sucked the life out of her. Did you ever wonder why your mother would never let you near your other baby sister that your mother gave birth to four months ago? She could see me in you..."

I stammered "You're lying"

It continued speaking "Thats why she kicked you out..."

I shook my head back and forth.

"No, No!, No!" I said over and over again, my temper spiking.

Hades carried on "That's why when she looked at you, you could always see fear in her eyes... like father like son, am I right Zayn?"

"Lies!!" I yelled my voice shook with emotion.

"I'm not my father!" I more than hissed.

The Mist changed again and in Hades place was my Mother? "You're right Zayn, you're not your father." Her expression was cold and unforgiving

"You're a freak!! You shouldn't even be here! I tried to hide you from Hades, I tried and this is how you repay me? Going to some camp for freaks like you?? You're even more of an freak than they are!"

I felt my eye's tear up, no matter how I told myself she wasn't my real mother, I couldn't stop her words from stinging and slicing a whole in my chest.

"I'm n-not a f-freak " I said weakly.

The illusion of my mother laughed "Not a freak? You killed those Hellbirds without even touching them! You even controlled those Hellhounds! You know no other son of Hades has been able to do that!"

I shook my head in denial feeling so vulnerable "Face it, you're different, you'll never be accepted. It should of been you that died! Not my little girl" She yelled.

I couldn't hold it back anymore...I cried.

Suddenly I saw the mist change. My mother instead of standing there, was laying on the ground, blood dripping from her forehead...

The illusion of Hades was standing near her.

He grinned at me. His voice was differnt, his voice was terrifying "What you fear will come to pass"
