Chapter 17

MEANWHILE AT THE OTHER SIDE OF DUSA PORTAL........

.

"Nooooo! deity!!!!" Eros shouted as he passed through Dusa portal and ended up at the other side of it. "We have to go back! We have to save him" Eros restlessly demanded as the magical Portal closed after he and Dusa passed through it. "You can't go back there! Your friend is already dead" Dusa said as she stand up from the ground she fell on after coming out of the portal. "What do you mean by that!" Eros shouted at her. "I said your dear friend is dead and he risk his life for a pathetic god like you!" Dusa mocks Eros. "You can mock me, just take me back with your portal magic!" Eros demanded and then stand up from the ground he fell on.

"You really want to die, don't you?" Dusa said and smiled. "Well... Am sorry to say this but I can't create that magical Portal until a week because i need to cultivate it with my magic." Dusa said as she examine her human palms. "You are lying!" Eros shouted at her. "Oh! You dare call me a liar? All you upper gods are all the same!" She said and then drop her hand. "... Yes you are a liar for saying those words, and trying to keep me from killing Hades." Eros shouted at her again.

"Fine! You want the real true?... Let me enlighten you." Dusa said. "...Years ago, Hades was set to be the king of the upper gods and be the ruler of the universe. But his brother who was an upper god didn't want his brother who was a medium god to rule over them. So he and the other upper gods built trust among themselves and they removed Hades as the heir to the throne of Olympus and made Zeus the king. Hades heard about this, and fought his brother countless times because of it, but he got defected by Zeus because he was more powerful than him..Zeus didn't even what to kill his brother after their countless battles with each other. So he gave Hades a godly position in Olympus with some other medium gods. So...one faithful day, Hades found out a way to create the most powerful thing in the universe by combining lust and hate together. He said it was the fallen gods that was in his side and that's why he was able to know about the chaos Pearl. He forced me and my love to create the Chaos Pearl but the upper gods who heard about our activities, took a powerful magic from the mother of Fate, and used it to kill me before I could completely create the chaos Pearl. And They banished Hades and his son to the underworld forever. " Dusa narrated the story of Hades to Eros. 

"Hades is evil for killing mortals and forcing people to do what he wanted, but you upper gods are the most evil because you started the never ending war against the medium gods and Hades." Dusa said and turn away from him. "Hahahaha!" Eros laughed as tears drops from his eyes. "You are lying!!, my father wouldn't stoop that low!" Eros yelled his words at Dusa. "Did he just said his 'father?' so he is truly the son of Aphrodite my sister and Zeus." Dusa talks to herself. "YOU.....!!" Eros shouted again. "What now?" Dusa said as she turn back only to see Eros flying with lightening speed towards her and then holding her arms after getting close enough. "SO FAST!" Dusa said in her mind as Eros holds her arms with a tight grip.

"He is truly the son of an upper god and upper goddess!" Dusa mind quickly speak to her. "You dare hold me in this manner you upper god? I am Dusa the second most powerful goddess and descendants from the mother of Fate!" Dusa said proudly and blast the same fire magic she used to burn off her hands on Eros hands. "I will see if you can take that... Hahahaha!" Dusa said as the powerful fire blows out from her mouth into Eros hands, but nothing happened.

"AHHHHH!" Dusa shouted as Eros tighten his grip in her arms even more. "How are you not hurt by my fire magic?" Dusa ask him and he tights he's hand grip on her. "Let go of me!" Dusa shouted and then breathe out fire from her mouth Eros face. 

She continued doing this over and over again still she got tired and stop to catch her breathe. 

"How is this possible that yoy ain't hurt at all by my fire breathe." She said as she look at Eros face. "....But the powers from the blue ball hurt him, why can't mine hurt him?" Dusa quietly asks herself. "YOU...." Eros said with he's eyes red as larva. "....You caused all this!" Eros said as he shouts at Dusa. "What are you taking about are you insane you upper god!" Dusa yelled back at him. "....Because of you Soul were taken from me, and because of you my friend died just because he wanted to protect you and I !!!" Eros shouted at Dusa again, and a scared facial expression came on her her face. 

"What.... Do... You mean he died protecting me?" Dusa struggles to ask him. "Didn't you see the light magic huh?! Didn't you see him preventing the light magic from hitting you with he's magic?!" Eros ask her and tighten his grip grip even more. "I didn't know about that, so just let me go!!!" Dusa shouted and her voice created a huge magic force around her which pushed and break some trees around but Eros didn't move. "Will you just let me go?!" Dusa said and struggles to break free from him but Eros still continue holding her arms tight. "Soul is in you, so I am not letting you go, no way." Eros said. "Wait?!.....AHHHHH!!" Dusa said and suddenly screamed as her memories and Soul's memories clashes together. "What's going on... What are this memories?" Dusa shouted as she started to see more flashback memories of Soul and Eros together. "What going on?" Dusa shouted and tears began to drop from her eyes. "Soul!?" Eros said and loosen his hand grip from her arm. "All this memories, what are they!?" Dusa shouted again, but this time with Soul's voice. 

"Soul! It that you?" Eros ask her. "Eros you came for me!" Dusa said after completely changing into Soul. "You are back! You are actually back to me!" Eros said and draw her close to him. "Why didn't you came to save me since huh?" Soul ask him as she hug him tight. "I came, you didn't see me!" He replied her and they both hugged for a while and stopped. "I never thought I will see you again, but I remember seeing you with my at the sky! What was that?" Soul ask him as she remember seeing herself levitating and talking to Eros at the sky of the underworld. "Just forget about it, what matters is that we are together and noting will separate us again!" Eros said as he look into Soul's eyes and moved his lip to kiss her. 

"LEAVE MY WOMAN ALONE!" A man voice immediately came out of no way and before Eros could look who it was. He blast Eros on his shoulder with his magic and this pushed him to the other side of the field. The impact of the magic on Eros shoulder pushed Soul to the ground but she only sustain a little cut on her hands. "What?! Eros!!" Soul shouted for Eros as she realise what had happened to them. "No! Not you again!" Soul said as she sees Zadre standing close to her.

 "You have what belongs to me Mortal!" Zadre said to soul as he walk closer to her. "I have noting that belongs to you devil" Soul confidently said and try to run away from him. "Where do you think you are going?" Zadre said as he vanished in front of her. "Am... Not going to do what you say again.... You are a devil" Soul stammered as Zadre look at her with his demonic eyes. "You really think you have a say in this, you are merely a puppet where Dusa conscience can be placed" Zadre said and hold Soul's cheeks with his two hands. "Let me go... You devil!" Soul shouted and struggle to free herself. 

"Hold still, I don't want to hurt you... But if you force me to, i will." Zadre said Soul as he look directly into her eyes "Remember Dusa, remember me and the dream with have together! Please remember me and our love for each other!" Zadre said as he stare solely at Soul's eyes. "What are you....?.... AHHHHH!" Soul try to ask a question, but she suddenly shouted as memories of Dusa and her's clashes together. 

"Make it stop... Please!" Soul shouted in pain and Zadre removed his hands from her cheek, and she fell on the ground while holding head. "Yes! Yes! memories of Dusa is coming back. And when it comes back and you fully emerged back to into her, we will both combine our powers to kill that upper god." Zadre said as she look at Soul while she holds her head in pain. "SO YOU ARE ONE OF THE PEOPLE WHO WANTS TO HURT SOUL?" Eros ask Zadre as he fly unnoticed to his back. "I see you quickly healed from my magic!" Zadre smiled mischievously as he turn and look at him. "Damn that blue ball, if it wasn't for it, my magic would have not weaken like this, and this upper god would have been greatly injured when I blasted him with it" Zadre quickly said in his mind. "I am giving you a Chance! Move away from Soul and I might spare your life!" Eros angrily said as he tighten his palm. "Her name is Dusa, and she is my woman! I am not going to let you upper god take her away from me." Zadre said and summon his dark wings. 

"NO! NO! NO!" Soul shouted as she remembers and hears things that she haven't seen or heard before. "Soul!!" Eros shouted as as he sees soul at the back of Zadre holding her head and screaming in pain. "You see? The mortal is slowly turning back into Dusa, the original owner of the body. But I think this time, this Soul WILL is too strong that's why she haven't turn to Dusa yet." Zadre said and prepare his hands to conjure up magic. "Don't worry, I will kill you and give your head to Dusa as a trophy when she emerged again from that Human." Zadre said and smile. "Since you are determine to die devil! I will make it faster for you!" Eros confidently said. "Bring it on upper god!" Zadre said and immediately flew straight at Eros and grabbed him by his neck and carry him up in the air. Zadre tighten his hands on Eros neck as he carries him in the air, so Eros punch immediately him in his stomach with all his strength and this pushed Zadre away from him. "You think that your cheap skill will work on me, devil?!" Eros shouted and flew towards Zadre who was still trying to balance himself in the sky after the punch he received from Eros. "Now I will make you pay from hurting Soul and my friends!" Eros said in anger and gave Zadre an uppercut which pushed him up in cloud and nocking him on unconscious. "Next time you don't mess with an upper god!" Eros said and fly towards Zadre who is now unconscious and was flying up in the sky. "Now.....die!!!!!" Eros shouted as he punched Zadre in his back and sending him flying down to the ground and eventually hitting the ground with his body. Hopefully he didn't hit Soul, but he handed close to her and the impact of his body on the ground changed something in her.

"Zadre are you okay?!" Soul who have turn back into Dusa said as she rushes to where he's body laying unconscious. "Please stay with me, please!" Dusa shouted as she carries Zadre and place him in her thighs. "Please stay with me...." Dusa said again and began to use her healing magic on him to see if it will work. "Come on! Come on!" Dusa shouted cried and her tears began to drop from her eyes and fall on his body. "Don't cry am fine!" Zadre said as regain consciousness, and he wipe the tears from Dusa eyes. "I thought, I lost you!" Dusa said and both of them kissed. 

"YOU!!" Eros shouted at them as he slowly fly down to the ground. "I guess I will have to kill that devil, and then torture you still give Soul back to me!" Eros said with anger in his eyes and pointed them. He then conjure up a clone magic which created thousands of himself equipped with weapons. "I guess if I will die today, I will die protecting you!" Zadre said as he stare at Dusa eyes after seeing thousands of Eros equipped with weapons. "No! Don't do it, he will kill you!" Dusa plead with Zadre. "Don't... Worry... I will happily die for you!" Zadre said and stand up while holding his injured stomach. 

"ARE! YOU! READY! TO! DIE!?" All the clones of Eros including him said in Unison. "I ZADRE, THE god OF HATE AND SINS... ONLY SON OF HADES STAND AGAINST YOU TO PROTECT MY LOVE, AND DIE FOR HER IF IT IS NECESSARY." Zadre said as he look at the real Eros. "I EROS, THE god OF LOVE, AND ONLY SON OF ZEUS WILL WIPE ANY DESCENDANTS OF HADES AND DEMONS AWAY FROM THE FACE OF ALL THE REALMS BECAUSE IT IS MY DUTY AS AN UPPER god." Eros said and he's clone fly up in sky surrounding Zadre and Dusa. "FIRST! I AM! STARTING WITH! YOU!" Eros and his clones said in Unison, and the clones brought out their swords. "Stay back love, this will get messy" Zadre said as he pull Dusa to his back.

"KILL HIM!" Eros orders his clones and they all hold there swords up high and throw it at Zadre. "Come at me!" Zadre said as he conjure up some protective magic, but Dusa knows that it wouldn't save him from all the swords coming at him at once. "NO!!.... STOP!!" Dusa moved to the Zadre front so that she could take all the sword coming at him. "STOP!" Eros said and all the sword coming at Zadre immediately stop moving. Some even stopped close to Dusa neck before it returned back to his clones hands. "You call yourself the god of love and yet you are ready to kill your own cousin" Dusa said to Eros. "He kidnapped my bride and created you off her, and because of that he shouldn't live" Eros replied Dusa. "It wasn't he's fault, it was all part of a prophesy!" Dusa said to Eros. "What prophesy?" Eros ask her. "Just earlier when my memories were clashing with each other, I heard something telling me about a prophesy and that the prophesy will eventually make the upper gods and Hades realise their wrongs." Dusa said. "My dad should to talk about a prophesy he received, but I never understand what that meant. I always taught it concern him bring down the upper gods by creating the Chaos Pearl" Zadre spoke out. "I think the prophesy is more than that!" Dusa said to Zadre. "I still don't see how any of these will give me a reason to spare him!" Eros angrily said and he's clones prepare to throw their sword again. "Don't you get it? We are all part of this unknown prophesy and If you kill one of us, you will definitely change it, and you may not see that Soul again!" Dusa said to him. 

"AHHHHH!!" Eros shouted in frustration. "I just want her back! But you, all of you just make it hard!" Eros said. "Return!" Eros dropped his head and said, then all his clones instantly disappear. "I think I know how you can get Soul back. How you can get my own body back too!" Dusa said as she face Eros and then Zadre. "How?" Both Eros and Zadre ask her. "WE NEED TO GO AND MEET THE MOTHER OF FATE!" Dusa said and Eros and Zadre both stared at her in shock.
