" I just wanted a star and now I'm being chased by love sick bitches."
Eros said as he ran through the mall and away from a swarm of zombified women that were created by his own pheromones.
" You aren't the one who's supposed to be complaining , you just turned all those pretty girls into Zombies!" Eros' bodyguard ,who had failed miserably at keeping him from leaving the Castle shouted at him as they both ran as fast as they could. His name was Cillian and he had brown hair and grey eyes.
" It's not my fault they're weak to me . RUN FASTER !" Eros replied to Cillian as they argued as they usually did in the castle.
"It is 100% your fault . I am running as fast as I can." His guard tried to run faster but ended up looking back to see the Zombified women catching up to them.
An arrow shot from behind them , barely missing Eros' face and he finally looked back to see who was aiming annoying arrows in his direction.
" Hey boys , can you stop to chat ? " A girl with a black high tech mask and her blonde hair in two ponytails floated in the air behind the two Beings and Eros and his Guard saw her as she began floating even higher as they were looking back.
Eros scowled at her.
"Are you crazy ?! " Eros' shout was directed at the floating girl as he turned away from her and continued running from the Zombified girls who were still chasing them.
Being chased by women that your Pheromones turned into disgusting creatures was one thing but being hunted down by a floating girl who was shooting arrows at your head was a bit much.
" Eros , I heard you've never fallen in love. Is it true ? Are you a useless Cupid? " The floating girl spoke in a flirty and teasing manner that made Eros even angrier than before.
Eros gritted his teeth and kept running, trying to not get distracted by the flirty girl who was still shooting arrows at them .
The swarm of girls that had turned into zombies after being exposed to Eros' pheromones continued chasing them , screaming his name and trying to capture him relentlessly.
" Please Evacuate the Mall immediately. Pheromone X has been detected. Please Evacuate the Mall IMMEDIATELY Pheromone X has been detected." The intercom blared as red alarms lights flashed and women and children ahead of the boys immediately ran out of sight in panic and horror.
The floating girl smiled at the beings below that were clearly exhausted from all the running.
" YOU ARE a Cupid aren't you ? So why don't you fly? " The girl teased Eros as she floated above them bouncing about in the air .
"What the Crap is your problem? " Eros shouted at the girl as he kept his eyes glued on what was ahead of him .
They were women and children that he didn't want to hurt but he knew that the moment he got too close to them it would all be over for them so he ran the other way and his guard followed.
" Stop following me you annoying leech ." Eros shouted at the girl as he ran in a new direction and she followed.
The zombies followed as well.
" Why the hell does everyone want me ?"
"You're not being Conceited for once , shocking ."
"I mean I can see why they want me... but even if she was the only girl in the universe I wouldn't look in her direction." Eros argued with his guard as they ran.
" She's a pretty girl don't be so mean ." Cillian said.
" She's trying to kill you ! " Eros argued back at his guard and his guard went silent.
Immediately men and women appeared alongside the floating girl, floating in the air just like she had been doing.
" Nobody's trying to kill you. We just want to play a little game ." A man wearing the same colors as the girl replied to Eros from above him.
Eros emitted more Pheromones and the womens' masks started breaking causing them to turn into zombies as they fell to the floor. Only the first girl who had blonde ponytails was unphased and she just floated higher.
Her mask had extra strong filters and she had taken a medication that was still in trial period that was supposed to protect women from Pheromone X.
She noticed that Incubuses were also in the mall sucking the soul of innocent people and she decided that it was better for them to return to the cult that sent her.
" Men return. I'll handle this myself." She said and the men who remained with her vanished. She stopped following Eros and his guard.
" Eros as much as I want to end Pheromone X I wasn't sent here to kill you. I was sent here to invite you to play a cute little game." She said half so Eros could here but the last half of what she said was more of a whisper to herself.
She took a paper plane out her pocket and threw it at Eros and watched as it followed them and then she vanished in thin air . The boys ran into a shop as the paper plane the girl threw entered behind them , Eros closed the door and used a bit of his power to place and strengthen a barrier around it.
Eros let out a sigh of relief as the zombified girls stopped at the closed glass doors beating it until their fists were bloody.
The door cracked but they weren't strong enough to break the door. Eros and his guard walked around looking at the snacks in the store that they were now locked inside.
"Please Evacuate immediately. Incubus have been detected. Code Red. Please Evacuate immediately. Incubus have been detected." Another emergency alarm went off in the mall and the whole mall was now in a panic with people running from incubus and zombies.
Eros took up a fruit sandwich and started to eat it .
"You need to pay for that ! " The man at the counter called out and Eros turns quickly to use brainwashing on him. The man at the counter smiled as Eros' eyes glowed red .
" You'll let me take all the fruit sandwiches "
Eros said as he used his powers to hypnotize the man in the store.
"You're robbing the shop ? You didn't try to use your powers on little Miss float and fire but you're using your powers to steal pastries ?"
"I left my wallet at home . "
" You are unbelievable. "
" I'm incredibly handsome too " Eros stated and they continued to bicker as the zombies outside continued to beat on the door over and over again breaking the glass more and more . As they argued Eros noticed the small paper plane by his feet.
He took it up and stared at it and then he threw it in the garbage but when he turned to walk away it was right infront of him again. It un folded itself infront of him to reveal that it was an envelope with an star on it .
He took it up angrily and threw it but when he turned it was infront of him again .
" Damn it !" Eros groaned as he stared at the envelope that seemed to be stalking him.
" Open me up ! "
A voice came from the envelope Eros' guard furrowed his eyebrows at the talking envelope then he gave Eros a confused look.
Eros scowled and opened it.
[ You have been selected to play our new Game . Drop Dead or Love. The rules are simple, If all members of your team find a love match you win . Win the game and save your Planet ,lose the game and your planet gets destroyed.]
Eros stared blankly at the envelope and then he grabbed it and ripped the envelope to shreds .
" Love is for Losers. " Eros stated frustrated and clearly annoyed by the invitation to a game he didn't want to play. He then threw the bits of the envelope into the nearest garbage bin that was in the store.
His guard sighed in relief.
" That invitation must be from the Anti Cupid and the last thing we want to do is get involved with them." Eros' guardsaid then he furrowed his brows as he looks at the coffee in the shop.
" Young Master, which one do you think is better ? " He asked with a smirk as he takes up two coffee mix packs and reached them out to Eros , clearly knowing the envelope with the invitation to the the game of Drop Dead Or Love had regenerated and was now on the coffee packs .
"None." Eros said rolling his eyes as he noticed the envelope now attached to the coffee.
[ This note will self destruct once you accept our game request.]
The voice came from the envelope again.
Eros groaned frustratedly.
"Leave me alone ! " Eros starts using his sharp nails to ripped the envelope to shreds again.
" Did you still have the love repellant we collected earlier today ?" Eros' guard asked and Eros immediately began checking his pockets and then he realized that the magical headband that looked like the two antenna that sometimes sticked out his head was in his pocket all along waiting to be used.
Eros put it on and his Pheromones became more contained deep inside his body.
" Let's go home , young master " His guard said and Eros nodded.
"Ok I know I told mom I wouldn't use much of my power today but - " Eros started and then he sighs.
" God give me the power of pure love , Cupid wings. " Large odd wings sprung out of Eros' back and his guard held on to him and they busted through the roof of the store.
Eros' wings were not like any other Cupid' s wings and he had fangs unlike the rest of them but he was a Cupid through and through.
" Hey ! Aren't you going to pay for the Fruit Sandwiches?" The cashier screamed after them as they left and Eros had just realized he should save the cashier from the girls as well but he decided that the cashier wouldn't be targeted by the Zombie girls because by the time he decided to leave the zombies would already find a new target.
Eros wasn't an Hero and he never really got into the habit of doing anything to help anyone else
He was self centered, conceited and unfortunately for him he was a Cupid who had been expected to be the opposite of how he was now.
He fled with his guard holding onto his wings and soared through the air like a large majestic bird. His attenae were like two thin sticks in the top of his head with a boxy heart shape on each one and his head band covered them but immitated their shape.
Planet Passion never really had a bright sunny morning. It always looked like evening here and the sky had either a pink or purple shade at almost any given point in time but sometimes Planet Passion was completely Pitch black and on those days demons would come out in massive groups with the intention to seduce and steal or corrupt the soul of their prey.
When Eros and his guard arrived at the castle the rest of the guards and Eros' parents were standing outside the castle, angrily waiting for him.
" You snuck out again and put the lives of women in danger ."
" I didn't do it on purpose mom ."
" You don't care about anyone but your self ."
" I'm sorry."
" Women are losing their lives because your Pheromones are out of control, women are losing their minds because you decide not to take your suppressants - "
" Actually I did take my suppressants. My Pheromones just got stronger. "
" We actually went out to the Abandoned Village to get a Love repellent, see. " Eros' guard pointed to the covering over Eros' antennae.
The King folded his arms across his chest and his face bent into an angry expression
" I hope you know I regret having you, Eros . You have brought shame to your family. You were supposed to be a good Cupid. One who lived to love !" Eros' father stated angrily.
" Love is for losers and I was born to win ." Eros said and he walked away from his father and the rest of the guards who were still angry at him.
Cillian followed Eros and they both felt the tension between Eros and his father.
" Before you go lock yourself up in your room , I'd like you to know that I found you a wife that you don't even deserve."
Eros stopped in his tracks and looked back at his father who was still standing with the guards but now facing him.
"I don't care if I don't deserve her. I told you I'm not interested in getting married. Stop trying to set me up. I don't want to be in love !"
" Eros, your father is trying to help you . " His mother called after him but Eros just got angrier.
"Help ?? He just told me I was bringing shame to the family now he wants me to marry a woman that I've never met. Does this woman he's setting me up with even know that my Pheromones could kill her ? "
" I know." A woman's voice came from the castle door and as Eros looked in the direction the voice came from the door opened to reveal a beautiful woman dressed in fine jewelry and a long lace dress.
The guards stared at her in shock because of how beautiful she was. Eros scowled.
He knew this just meant his life was going to become more difficult.
" I'm sorry lady I don't want to get married to someone I don't know." Eros said and he walked towards the girl then right by her and into the castle.
He didn't speak another word to her . He simply saw her as a loser just like everyone else who believed in love .
" So are you going to tell your parents that the Anti Cupid Cult members found you and invited you into some twisted game ? " His guard , who had followed him into the castle and ran after him as he went into the hall , whispered.
" No. I'm going to pack my bag."
"Pack your bags and go where ? "
"Earth. "
" You know that makes no sense right ? You hate humans and humans are too weak to protect you if the Anti cupids findsl you there ."
"I might not like humans but I know that it's the last place the anticupid would check for me. Remember when they wanted to kill me and my parents sent me to school on Earth? I never saw the anti cupid again until I came back here."
" You've got a point but still...aren't you going to tell your parents that you plan to go all the way to another Planet just because a cult leader is bullying you. "
Eros walks away from his guard and goes straight into his room that looks like a jail cell with a big lock on the door and takes up a glowing orb and starts throwing his things into it .
His guard follows him into the room and watches as he packs all his stuff into a little orb that keeps getting bigger and bigger.
Eros picks up a jar filled with his suppressants and his guard's eyes widens in shock .
" Why do you have so many suppressants? I thought you only had access to a months worth . "
" Do I have to explain everything? I stored them up for a time when I wasn't going to be in Planet Passion. On Earth there are no doctors who make pheromone suppressants. The note that the Anti Cupid sent wasn't just a love note and it wasn't just an invitation either. It was a threat. Fall in love in our game or die . I don't want to fall in love . I can't and I don't want to die."
" So you're going to Earth to hide from the Anticupid when your powerful enough to stop them ?.
" If I use too much of my powers women will die and my parents are already angry with me about that . Do you have a better idea that leaving Planet Passion ?"
" Well maybe you can find your love match and things will all work out. "
" I don't want to find a love match and what if my Pheromones already killed the girl that I'm supposed to fall in love with ?"
"Why does it have to be your fault? You can't control your Pheromones. It's been like this since you were a kid. Stop blaming yourself. "
The guard said and then he turned to walk away.
" It's ok to do what you want. Do whatever you feel is best for you. Go to Earth and have fun. It's not like it's your destined to destroy everything."
" I'm going to create a safe place for myself out there "
" I believe in you "
" And I'm going to be king of the Humans."
" You lost me ."
" Eros everything isn't about power and control.Sometimes you gotta let someone else shine. "
MEANWHILE ON EARTH...
" A boy and a girl borne at the same time . Epic! " A chubby boy with short black hair and a bit of acne stood in the science lab after he asked what seemed like a million questions to the boy and girl in front of him.
The girl was a new student at the College they went to and her name was Enmei.
She had long black hair with purple highlights , a small nose and big brown eyes . She was dressed casually in a red tank top with an off the shoulder T-shirt over it and a mini jean skirt. She shared a birthday with Hudson .
Hudson was the tall blonde boy standing beside her with pretty green eyes that seem to sparkle with excitement when ever he did science projects. His hair was shiny , his skin was clear and he was wearing a lab coat
Hudson and Enmei were childhood friends that had struggled with trying not to be jealous of each other and not making everything a competition.
Today was one of the few days that they got along this good .
"You guys must be destined to be together." The chubby boy said and the girl pretended as if she was going to throw up .
" Ew ." Enmei said and then she rolled her eyes at the chubby boy that stood infront of her.
"Can you guys read each other's minds ?" The chubby boy asked seeming genuinely intrigued by Hudson and Enmei's friendship.
"Dude how would we even do that ?" Hudson asked as he furrowed his brows and looked down at the boy who was much shorter than him.
" Twin telepathy ? " The boy with black hair and acne suggested but Enmei and Hudson were gave each other a look as if they were both wondering if the other person was hearing the ridiculous things that the boy infront of them was saying.
" Bro we're not even related." Hudson stated as he looked back at the chubby boy who seemed to have been watching too much Sci -Fi Animations.
" You're not ? " The boy asked seeming genuinely confused.
"We look NOTHING alike. A lot of people are born on the same day, idiot." Enmei rolled her brown eyes at the chubby boy who stood in front of her and took up a science text book and lightly tapped him on the head .
" Use your common sense ."
The rest of the science nerds laughed and the chubby boy looked disappointed.
" It's just that you guys act so much alike ." The Chubby boy tried to explain himself but he couldn't hide the disappointment on his voice when he spoke.
" Enmei and I are just friends and I don't think we act that much alike."
Right ? Hudson asked as he nodded his head .
" Right . " Enmei replied nodding as well.
"It's 6 oclock guys . Let's all start packing up. No experierements after 6." The Science Club captain announced and the other boys groaned annoyed and frustrated that their club was going to close for the day. The boys started leaving in small group until only a few were left behind chatting about random stuff.
" Let's go make some experiments at my house." Hudson and Enmei said at the same time as they winked at each other and the chubby boy stared at them and shook his head .
Apparently Hudson and Enmei really did act a lot like each other but it came so natural to them that none of them ever realized it.
" So you wanna go to my house to watch Alien Hot Boy and the Fae from Earth ? " Hudson offered and Enmei got extra excited.
" I can't believe the show's finally out !"
"You wanna come too , Bryce ?" Hudson asked the chubby boy and he shook his head.
" No. I have a date with a cute girl tonight and also my name's NOT Bryce. It's Jarrett. "
" Woah ! Way to go Jarrett . Good luck on your date. I know that girl is gonna love your personality." Hudson cheered the chubby boy on and encouraged him .
" Make sure you buy her flowers." Enmei added and Jarrett smiled.
"Bye guys. " Jarrett said as he took up his black backpack and headed towards the exit as the two childhood friends waved at him.
" You know my sister also loves Alien Hot Boy and Fae from Earth ." Hudson said to Enmei and the club president glared at him.
" Get the hell out of the club room ! It's twenty minutes past 6 and you were all supposed to be out here at 6 o clock! " He shouted at them , his glasses almost falling off the top of his nose as he walked around picking up papers off different tables and throwing them in the garbage bin that was in the club room.
Hudson and Enmei were startled by his sudden outburst but they just grabbed their stuff and left.
On their way home they couldn't help but notice how beautiful the sky was and when they were passing by a open field Enmei noticed that more stars than usual were showing up in the sky. It was as if the stars were a tiny bit brighter or closer tonight and there were no clouds in sight . The sky looked like a beautiful painting.
"Woah ! Look ! Look ! The stars look way bigger tonight and there are so many of them." Enmei exclaimed and Hudson looked up to see a beautiful sky filled with stars.
He took his phone out his pocket and as he raised his hands with the phone above his head and he was about to take a picture he realized something that sent chills down his spine.
" It's so beautiful. It's TOO beautiful." His eyes widened and his expression changed from one of admiration to a look of worry and concern.
" What do you mean it's too beautiful? It's just the sky. " Enmei said and when she looked at Hudson she realized that he was deeply disturbed by what he was seeing. He put up his phone after taking a single picture and then he kept staring into the sky as if it had opened up and tried to swallow him.
" Don't tell me you're thinking about some Alien stuff like Jarrett. I mean the whole soulmate think that he believed in was bad enough already but no body actually believes in twin telepathy and that alien stuff right ?" Enmei said nervously then she nodded her head .
" Right." Hudson replied and he nodded his head the same way but he didn't take his eyes off the sky not even for a second.
Then a strange beam of light flashed across the sky and they started running as fast as they could. They ran into the field and unfortunately for them that was the same place Eros , the Alien Cupid whose Pheromones could turn women into zombies decided that he'd land his ship . There was a flash of white light in the sky as a spherical spaceship soared through the sky as the two friends ran away. It moved extremely fast and they couldn't out run it .
They fell to the floor and the strange spaceship was now hovering over them causing a lot of wind to form , blowing their hair as they layed in the grass and held onto each other.
" Help there's a spaceship with disgusting Aliens in the field! " Enmei screamed and the spaceship went dark and the wind stopped.
The spaceship landed and the front started separating into two parts to reveal a man's muscular figure standing in the middle of the spherical ship.
" My name is Eros. I am the most gorgeous in all the galaxies and I will become king of the humans! " Eros announced defensively and Hudson finally let go of Enmei.
Hudson recognized the voice, he knew the name and when he looked at the alien in the ship he became angry and sprung to his feet.
" You're that kid who said he was going to be king of the Humans." Hudson said and Eros grits his teeth angrily.
" And you're still a weakling !" Eros yelled at him harshly.
" You came all the way to Earth just to bully me again ? " Hudson asked with his brows furrowed.
" Why would I waste my time on garbage like you ?"
" I'm garbage? So why exactly did you come back here ?" Hudson argued with Eros who was still aboard his spaceship and Enmei just layed on the ground, shocked and confused.
How is any of this even real ? Why was her childhood friend arguing with an alien ? And why does it sound like they already know each other.
" Are you guys trying to prank me . There's no way this is real ." She said , still laying on the ground. She scratched the back of her head and laughed nervously.
" Dude you totally scared my friend. She's never seen an alien before and I thought you left Earth for good." Hudson complained to Eros and Eros smirked as he jumped out of the spaceship and used his powers to shrink it then he threw it into the air, caught it in his mouth then swallowed it whole.
" So they're not pranking me ? " Enmei whispered to herself as she watched Eros and Hudson continue to argue in the field.
Aliens aren't supposed to be real . Aliens aren't real so why was her childhood friend arguing with an alien in the middle of the night .
" Hudson are you actually arguing with an alien right now or am I just dreaming all of this ?"
" Give me one second,Enmei. " Hudson said and he walked up to Eros.
" Go back to your Planet ! I'm sick and tired of you."
" You're still angry that all the girls liked me and not you ? " Eros teased Hudson with a smirk.
"Shup it , Space Face. You think I care ? I just never wanted to see you again !"
" I know you're a fan of my band ." Eros teased Hudson even more . He found it so entertaining to watch Hudson get angry at everything he said.
" Yea , your my least favorite member ."
" You sure..." Eros started his sentence but Hudson slapped him across his face so suddenly that he stopped talking.
Eros was shocked but he knew that a slap from human wouldn't leave a scratch on him.
Enmei was speechless as she watched her childhood friend stand up to Eros and her eyes widened. She found a new feeling of admiration towards Hudson developing inside her heart because she never knew that her friend could be this brave.
" That's really how you want to treat someone who can wipe out your entire planet ? " Eros asked with a sinister smirk and Hudson sighed.
"Eros I know you hate me and all humankind so why did you decide to honour us with your presence ? " Hudson immediately changed his attitude towards Eros to a more welcoming one because he didn't want to be the reason Earth no longer existed.
" Well if you MUST KNOW. I came here to rule. Everything that walks the Earth will be under my control." Eros declared proudly.
"Good luck!" Hudson said in the most nonchalant and uninterested manner as he rolled his eyes at Eros then he walked over to Enmei , picked her up off the ground and helped her stand up on her feet.
He walked off pulling Enmei away with him.
"Stupid Cupid. Every three months he finds himself on MY planet,belittling MY people , telling me that humans are dumb and I'm talentless and that I'll never be a star. " Hudson grumbles as he walks away with Enmei but then he suddenly started levitating causing Enmei to scream and hold on to him tightly. She tried to pull him back down but it didn't work. He was thrusted into the air by an invisible force. Enmei tried to reach him but he was too high.
She couldn't reach him as he quickly ascended into the air then he was suddenly thrown to the floor by what seemed like some unseen entity.
" I heard you! "Eros yelled at Hudson as he layed on the ground whincing in pain. Eros was using his powers to hurt Hudson and now Enmei was really scared.
Enmei ran towards her childhood friend to help him up. Worry and concern covered her face as she tried to get Hudson back on his feet.
Hudson coughed and held his back as he layed on the ground.
" You know for a Cupid , you sure have a lot of hate inside your heart. " Hudson said in between whincing and trying hard to get up.
" Who said I have a heart? Even if I did I'd trade it for power. Power is the only thing that I care about." Eros said angrily as his eyes glowed red and he used his powers to pick Hudson up and throw him at a street light.
Enmei screamed and ran towards Hudson again.
" What the hell do you think your doing, stinking alien ?" Enmei shouted at Eros and Eros walked up to her with a smirk.
He pulled her away from Hudson and she struggled in his arms.
" Let me go! " Enmei shouted and Eros' sinister smile widened.
" Didn't Hudson tell you anything about me ? I'm an Alien cupid with toxic Pheromones that can turn anyone of the opposite sex into love sick zombies. Don't piss me off." Eros stated and Enmei's eyes widened in shock and fear. Her eyes became teary.
" Leave us alone . " Enmei shouted and Eros looked her straight into her eyes and began using his powers. Eros was the most powerful Cupid in the galaxy and he had multiple different powers that were fueled by Pure Love. One of his powers were called Trance and it could be used to hypnotize any person he was looking at .
" Trance ! " Eros said and Enmei immediately became more submissive as she stared into Eros' glowing red eyes.
" You will go home and leave Hudson and I to have some fun." Eros commanded the girl who was now smiling at him as if she didn't just see him attack her childhood friend.
" Yes Master. " Enmei replied to Eros giggling.
She was clearly hypnotized by Eros' power and Hudson's face bent in anger.
" Are you crazy? You've lost your mind!" Hudson yelled at Eros and he smiled.
" I guess you'll have to help me find it." Eros replied to Hudson as he let go of Enmei and walked towards him.
Enmei just turned and walked away. She headed home by herself not even looking in Hudson's direction because she was still under Eros' hypnosis.
As she walked home she passed Hudson's sister who was looking for her big brother.
" Enmei ?" Hudson's sister asked as she recognized her brothers friend walking down the lonely road.
Enmei did respond but instead pushed Hudson's sister away when she touched her shoulder.
"Master told me to go home so I must obey." Enmei stated as she walked away from the younger girl who stared at her confused.
Hudson's sister kept walking in the direction that Enmei was coming from and she stopped when she saw Hudson sitting on the ground in the middle of the field.
" Hudson! "
He heard his sister's familiar voice call out from down the street and Hudson looked up and saw his little sister running towards him.
" What happened? Are you ok ? " She asked then she turned around to see Eros standing behind her and she was extremely excited.
" No way ! You're Eros ! You're the boy from the band that Hudson is always talking about! "
" You finally met him." She exclaimed excitedly as she helped her brother up off the ground.
" Hudson had met me a long time ago . Has he really been pretending not to know me?"
" He really loves your music."
"Shut up Hotaru . I don't even listen to him." Hudson lied to his sister between whincing and sharp breaths as his sister helped him to his feet.
" What a loser ." Eros remarked at Hudson and Hudson's green eyes grew big with shock and pain at Eros' harsh words then tears started forming in Hudson's green eyes making them more sparkly that usual as he stood to his feet.
Sorrow found it's way into Hudson's heart and Eros' heart didn't seem to be something that even existed.
" You'll never get my autograph!" Eros shouted and Hudson's sister looked at him with her eyes furrowed.
" Woah ! he's mean. I never knew Eros was so mean.Why didn't you tell me he was this mean? " Hotaru said to her brother and he just walked away.
" Let's just go home, Hotaru." Hudson said and she could hear the cracks in his voice.
A tear ran down Hudson's cheek and he left with his sister knowing that once Eros was on Earth it would only be the beginning of his pain and heartache.
