The scent of rotting fleshing and smoldering ash lingered in the dark atmosphere. The cries of the damned were unyielding as they resounded in the empty void. Pillars of his greatness could be seen standing strong throughout the void. The grounds were cracked and splintered, revealing a light of interchanging red and blue hues in their eternal dance. This was the place of abandonment, a place of regret ruled by one soul: Hades.
The God still harbored hatred toward his brother and the other Olympians for this forced assignment. So, in retaliation, he would take away what the Gods loved most: Earth. Zeus was a be cruel God and left a mirror to this world in his realm. Hades could watch as passing time brought wars' beginnings and endings, civilizations rises and falls, but could never reach the tear into the human's world. The portal was far beyond his world. Like, a star which he craved to touch. Such touch was unattainable until now.
The sound of careful footsteps was drowned out by the unending wails as he proceeded to the edge of the Underworld. His movements ceased a few feet from the edge and raised both hands mid-waist, as if he was grasping for something. That was when the ground pulsated before giving way to an orb melded to a dainty stand. This orb slipped into his cold palms as if it belonged. Long fingers hooked around the glowing ball and immediately the object held fast to him. Veins throbbed wildly and biceps bulged. Perspiration he didn't realize he had tricked down his sharp features. This orb fed off of his energy in a wild frenzy, growing ever brighter with each indulgence.
When the ball had its full, a beam of light shot from its being and began crafting out a bridge to the portal into Earth. Fire so hot even Zeus himself would swelter, whipped, danced and mended until it solidified. When the flames subsided a bridge of bone was left in its wake.
A weary Hades peeled her dainty fingers from the now dull orb. Strong muscular arms were replaced with lean limbs; a straight form had transformed into supple flesh. Hades let out a satisfied sigh. The voice sounded unmistakably female. It had taken the God a thousand years to gather enough energy for this moment and now that she had, her time of revenge had come.
