Hades Pov.
Hot air rushed around me. I felt as if I had been falling for hours now. After only a little longer, my descent slowed and the air became cool. I softly landed on black sand that looked almost like obsidian shards. In front of me was a long, dark blue river that led into the Underworld. At the bank sat a young man. I put on my helm to hide my face. I no longer needed to wear one of those cloaks as the Helm of Darkness hid my aura as well.
The man wore only a cloth spooled over his nether regions. He looked at me, his body dripping water from various cuts. He held a serrated dagger in his hands and was slitting his wrists.
"Who are you?" He asked while he winced at the pain of the knife plunging into his stomach."
"Erm, you can call me Hades. I wish to enter the Underworld." The man pulled out the blade slowly. Seeming to want to elongate the pain.
"Hm, I can let you in. But first, you must take a drink from my river."
"Why? I don't think that's a good idea."
"If you don't, no entry. And don't try to swim. It will have the same effect. Just forever."
I looked around for a boat or something to get across. Themis clearly stated touching the waters of the Underworld was a bad idea. Looking off the platform, I could see the entirety of the Underworld.
Four other rivers swam around the black grass. In the center was a giant black palace facing us. The walls almost touched the spiky ceiling. It was surrounded by four different areas. There was an area of green grass with a beautiful pond and various animals on the left of the palace. It was the only non-gloomy place in the entirety of the Underworld. I'd be happy to live there. At the back was a place with red rock as the floor. The trees were on fire and I could feel the heat just by looking at them.
In front of the Palace were fields of black-grass, I could see some souls roaming around. They looked like normal beasts but they had a slight glow to them. To the right of the palace were a series of mansions and small homes. At the very back was a blood-red ominous cave that no doubt led to Tartarus. Thin black trees with red fruit dotted the landscape. One of the rivers led to a more comfortable-looking cave. It made me sleepy just by looking at it. I shook my head and looked away.
There was nothing of use. Sighing I took off my helm and knelt. Cupping the water in my hands, pain flared through my body. My hands trembled and I could barely get it to my lips.
Drinking the blue water, pain like never before flared through my body. My throat felt as if someone shoved a red hot pike through it. I could feel my eyes being gouged out with spoons, my tongue being cut off, my bones being broken one by one, a knife stabbed me and cut me over and over again.
My teeth got pulled out, my testicles torn apart, my nose crushed, my body heated up before quickly freezing causing even more suffering.
I was chained to the ground and could see my family get murdered by my father, empowered now by the Ophiotaurus killing the Olympians permanently. Cronos caught the slippery Zeus and tore him in half at the waist. He used the Lightning Bolt and impaled Metis through the neck and crushed her head with his free hand. As Poseidon charged, his scythe flew to him and he cut my little brother in half right before me. Hera and Hestia did a joint charge with swords, their form still a little amateurish. Cronos smiled as he took his scythe and quickly beheaded Hera. Hestia stopped in her tracks as Hera's gore painted her gold. The scythe stabbed into her chest and he lifted her and threw her into the sun.
Cronos was wrapped in vines as Demeter's eyes glowed gold from power. Kronos laughed as he vanished and appeared behind Demeter. She turned and he picked her up by the neck. I wanted to scream, move but I could do nothing. He quickly crushed her neck.
Just as he was about to turn, Gida rammed into his leg and Amalthea smashed him in the head with her staff. Neither of them fazed him as he stabbed Gida in the top of her head with Demeter's sickle put his foot on her shoulder and pulled her head off. This stopped Amalthea's onslaught for a moment and Kronos cut her in half with his scythe.
He grew into a 90-foot giant and caught the boulders thrown by the Hecatoncheires and threw them at the charging Cyclopes with hammers. The boulders obliterated my uncles and with a quick swipe of his Scythe, cut the Hecatoncheires in half.
He turned back into his nine-foot self and Zeus grabbed the hem of his cloak. Zeus innards spooled behind him. Kronos smiled at him and stepped on his head. My father shook his head and stomped down, crushing Zeus' skull.
Mother grabbed his shoulder and shouted something I couldn't hear. He looked at her and then down at the trident in her stomach. Poseidon's trident. He twisted it and let her drop to the floor in a pool of her blood.
He turned to me. He was covered in golden gore. He began to slowly walk towards me. I gathered all my will and broke free of the chains. I drew my swords and charged.
I awoke in front of another river. To my left was the other river I had just drank from. Tears filled my eyes. I lay there crying for a minute and telling myself it wasn't real. I got on my hands and knees and threw up. I stayed like that shaking for a few minutes. Finally deciding that I'd kill Cronos before he laid his hands on Hestia, I found my resolve to keep going.
"U-um, sir. Can you please drink from my river? It's the only way to pass."
I looked up at a young boy. He was only five feet tall and he wore a blue chiton. He looked at me with sad eyes. I nodded. This was the worst. I don't know who made this bullshit but I hated it. I walked over to the greywater and drank.
Immediately the sounds of crying and wailing filled my head. Arms reached out of the river and grabbed me, asking for my help. I could even hear the Olympians. I couldn't move my body as I was pulled closer. Wait. I don't give a fuck about these souls and the Olympians were well and alive. I pulled with all my strength and my sight went dark.
I woke up and the wailing subsided. My face was now buried in black-grass.
I slowly stood up and put back on my helm
I was at another bank of the river. I could see the platform miles away and in the air. I turned and groaned. In front of me was another river with the clearest waters I've ever seen. It circled the Underworld for what looked like nine times. I could also see the two other rivers snaking their way around the place.
