Nightshade

Hades

"Are you sure it's going to work?" I ask.

He sighs, "For the eleventh time Hades, it'll work, just follow the plan okay?"

I nod, "Okay, thank you, Chase."

"No problem buddy, just make sure Korey knows the plan and she follows it."

"I will."

He gives me a nod and walks away, I watch as he disappears into the darkness.

Minor gods, I think and get into my car and make the drive home.

I quickly drive home, enjoying DVSN's album, man when was the last time I enjoyed some me time.

I park my car in the garage and step out and walk into the house, the smell of roasted chicken enters my nostrils and my stomach rumbles.

"Korey, Gertie, I'm home,"

I place my keys on the desk in the passageway.

"Hades you're late, your mother will be here in five minutes you better get your ass in the shower," Gertie yells from the kitchen.

"My day was great thanks for asking," I mumble as I make my way up the stairs.

"I heard that!"
