Chapter 2: ʻAnela

"So your name is Hades right like the greek god of death." Hades usually would have walked away at this point but he was trapped in more than 1 way. One he was still in the car with Mr.Elder and his daughter, two he didn't want to leave her alone. He decided to speak up. "Yeah, pretty cursed. why? What's it to you?" Hades asked trying not to sound too pissed off. "Your face seems familiar but your attitude is foreign". "How? I don't remember you." Now Hades' curiosity was peaked. "I think the guy who introduced us was Harry Lerins." That name caused a combination of anger, regret, and sorrow to flow through Hades. "You okay?" 'Anela asked with clear concern "Leave me alone."

Hades didn't want to talk to her anymore. Hades had once thought of Harry as his brother. But now he had a burning hatred for Lerins. After that, they didn't talk for the rest of the ride. Which wasn't long, 2 minutes tops. They got out of the car and went into a 1 story brick house with a metal roof. It was nothing special except for the fact that it was baby blue. Mr.Elder went to the door and pulled out a bunch of connected keys. It took him a bit to find a half-baby blue half-green key it had a baby blue D on the green side and a green B on the other side. As Elder looked at the key a wave of sorrow overcame him. He unlocked the door without a word and went to his room. 'Anela was used to this by now.

She invited Hades in. As Hades closed the door he heard a crash. "What was that?!" "Just my dad's punching bag breaking again." 'Anela said like this happened every day. Which it almost did. "Sit down on the couch I'll go get some Giant Reds." Hades waited for 'Anela to come back which was not long. The couch was a strange dark brown and was comfier than Hades' bed. When 'Anela got back she handed some soda to Hades.

"So why did your parents name you Hades?" 'Anela asked. "I don't know they died before I could ask them." "I'm sorry I didn't know you were an orphan. So where are you from?" She asked trying to change the subject. "Chicago, why?" "Is it really as crime-ridden as they say?" He remembered what happened to Kai. "Worse, it feeds off the death of good people."

An awkward silence ensued thereafter. 'Anela turns on the TV and chooses to watch flixnet. She scrolls until she sees a show called "The Hexer". Back in Mr. Elder's room, a punching bag was lying on the floor, and Mr. Elder was on his bed. His knuckles were bloody and he was crying. Not from the pain of his hands but from the pain of his heart and soul.
