Skills, Agility and Brain-power?

"Hey mommy!!! Did you see I passed the test!! Are you proud of your w-ittle[1] son?" Ian said as he ran to hug her.

"Ugh get off me! You're just like that father of yours, clingy as hell and yes I'm proud. I thought you were going to miss the first shot like last year! Hehe", Auntie May laughed as she rolled her eyes at him playfully. The boys all had really good relationships with their own family. This was mainly because they were taught how to trust one another without an explanation. Even though they were from the underworld, that didn't mean they didn't know how to love and care for others. They each had their own lives apart from the underworld but whenever they were talking about Hades, they were more serious and dangerous than ever.

The last obstacles was hacking and the martial arts trial. The hacking obstacle was rather simple. The only thing you had to do was hack into a system that Jezza's dad created but the catch was that, whenever they hacked into it they couldn't be traced back to them. This was the tough part because they needed to cover their own tracks, from detail to detail. Other than that they were solid and the hacking test was a sure win for the group.

On the other hand, the martial arts trial was harder than the hacking. That was because it consisted of them fighting one of the adults and make them tap out. Obviously, each of the guys chose their own father to go against them. The idea was to beat their opponent anyway possible, so in reality the type of martial arts that you chose in the end didn't really matter. Just as long as it's good enough to beat your opponent, you were solid. Again this was also an easy win for the group especially since they always practiced against each other. They had the skills, agility and brain-power to pass the test.

In the end the boys easily passed the hacking test, as predicted. Now the interesting part was now the last test. The Martial Arts Test. As expected the boys each chose their own father just like the first and second time. The first time each one of them got their asses kicked, it was the funniest thing for Zafyra to see. Of course the only one who actually passed was Zafyra but that was mainly because she was seemed to be always one step ahead from its opponent, which was something the boys never anticipated. They thought their old mans were probably not even capable to go against them but in the end they were wrong.

Determination filled the eyes of all the boys and nothing but concentration could be felt in the air. The atmosphere suddenly dropped below average and every one knew that they were serious about passing the test. First one up was Jezza and his father, aka. The Head of Hades.

Uncle Kei was the one who gathered all these people to create Hades and he was also kind of the match maker for his best friends. Which is also the main reason why Hades grew stronger because every woman that his best friends married was able to contribute to the group. Of course it wasn't intentional but the main reason why his friends even knew their own wives was because of Aunt Mira. She was a total badass and had badass friends too, so obviously they always hung out together as a whole group. It really wasn't meant to be like this, but honestly after spending a lot of time together their own hearts grew closer to their partners. Therefore the 5 couples wanted to make their kids take on their own legacy and become best friends maybe even marry one another. Unfortunately, they were all boys so there wasn't much hope, because of that they stuck to making them best friends.

Jezza learned Jujitsu and Taekwondo just like the others but what his father didn't know was that he also learned Aikido from Zafyra. They started on their feet with a few kicks suddenly uncle Kei went in for the full attack which gave Jezza leverage.

"Wrong move uncle Kei." Zafyra said out loud while looking concentrated at the fight. She already had an idea of what Jezza was going to do.

Jezza suddenly used that leverage to grab uncle Kei and throw him on the floor. From there on he used his Jujitsu moves and eventually Jezza was on top of him. Jezza wrapped uncle Kei in a choke position with his arms but uncle Kei suddenly turned him off balance. Quickly after Jezza wrapped his legs around uncle Kei's neck and pulled on his hands and feet with his upper body too keep him in place. Uncle Kei tried getting out of this sticky situation but was too tired to try, due to the unexpected attack from earlier. In the end uncle Kei tapped out.

"What the actual hell?!? When did you learn Aikido? When I fought ZyZy that was the only reason why she had good leverage on me but I told her not to tell you anything! But now you all of a sudden learned!?! Ugh as much as I hate to say it, congratulations son!" said uncle Kei. He was actually really surprised when Jezza put him off balance earlier with the Aikido move. When he fought Zafyra he knew that she knew Aikido too aside from Jujitsu but he never expected her to be really good at it. Therefore, Zafyra was able to capture an easy win when she fought against him.

"Seriously though! That really hurt my shoulder. I guess your old man really is old." Uncle Kei continued pouting with his hands in the air. Jezza just looked disheveled with his hands on his knees. He was panting in exhaustion but in the mist of all that he still looked concentrated and accomplished. He looked up to see Zafyra and grinned at her. He grinned at her and Zafyra already knew what it meant 'Are you proud of me? I finally beat the old man!' Zafyra rolled her eyes playfully and gave him her best sarcastic smile. It meant 'Yes I'm very proud of you! From how it looks, I guess this year I can't see your ass get kicked again what a pity'

In the end all the boys won against their own fathers and the boys were super ecstatic. The boys and fathers were all more tired than they expected they would have been. The boys decided to hangout for the rest of the day at the mansion to celebrate their own victory. It was actually 6 o'clock in the afternoon when they all finished. They honestly didn't expect it to end this late but honestly while they were taking the test time stopped for them. So it would actually make sense for it to take a really long time. Fortunately, the sun was still up because it was summer time. They all ditched their parents and walked into the living room in the basement where they could see the lake. They all sat on different brown couches and stood there in complete silence. Zafyra was actually the only one out of all of them that was bored. She knew sooner or later they were going to go back to school in a couple weeks so she wanted to enjoy it with them. But right now she wanted to go play soccer even if she had to go alone.

Her urge to go play soccer on that turf field located at H.S.O.G made her energized. She didn't want to leave the boys but honestly they are a bunch of babies to her. When she passed the test they all dragged her to go play! So why couldn't she do the same thing back? She then looked at them and sighed. Fine. She would only be nice to them this time and won't drag them to go with her because she knew their own exhaustion.

They all just laid on the couch with their eyes focused on the blue lake water. Their eyes all suddenly started to close slightly and that was a cue that they would definitely fall asleep in a couple of minutes. Their eyes all continued to fall and their bodies all leaned to one side with their head dropped low. They all laid down on the couch and eventually all you could hear was deep breathing. Zafyra just looked at them and she laughed inwardly. She has honestly never seen them so drained to doze off in under 10 minutes of sitting in silence.

Zafyra got up and walked to the nearby closet . She knew that they always kept blankets nearby because sometimes they would open the windows to hear the waves and it would get cold at night. She grabbed 5 white blankets and ran to the living room. She unfolded them and put one on top of them individually. The last person she put a blanket on was Adrian. He was still half conscious.

Just as Zafyra was about to walk away, he grabbed her hand, smiled and asked,"Where are you going? Be sure to stay safe." He said it sweetly with so much brotherly love. She smiled at him and said,"Don't worry I'm just going to go play soccer. I'll see you tomorrow." Zafyra turned around to see everyone was in a comfortable position, then she turned of the light and walked out.
