Hell No!{15}

This was what Hades wanted to avoid at all costs and he would have if it wasn't for Sam. How it was sams' fault? He didn't know but he would be damned if he doesn't Pin it on Sam if worst comes to worst. How foolish he was thinking she hadn't gotten here earlier? Knowing his mother she was probably an hour early. Fuck! What to do? What lie to tell?

Ah yes. No matter how great or mighty we all are we can never be too dumb when it comes to our mothers. It's like something just switches off our brains when they give us that hard stare. By age Hades was much older than she was but age doesn't really apply here cause she would brutally whoop the devils ass when angry. Literally!

"Ugh I can explain mother. I swear I wasn't dilly dallying again I promise. I was just taking a little time to get ready to see you. You know I always want to look my best when it comes to you so I just couldn't help but delay a little while getting dressed. Yeah! That's why I was late." He could only hope so far that this would work but he realized very quickly that it didn't! In fact it failed so fast he couldn't help but wince at his own lie.

Hades hates lying to her although it was technically not a lie as he would always prepare himself to look as handsome and as well kept as he could be whenever he met her but they both know he would never waste time picking out clothes. Yes. He was and is that much lazy.

"You and I both know it only takes a snap of your fingers to get you dressed in the finest pieces even the richest person in our times could only ever dream of having, besides you would never touch the clothes in your wardrobe. Pick another lie Hades. And be fast about it." Shit! She really looks pissed and he knows she only wants the truth when she says to pick another lie. Well guess there's no evading it is there? Sighing loudly he decides it would be easier to just tell her the truth but he would rather do that with his head on her lap while she brushes her hand through his hair.

"Fine mother. I'll tell you what happened but can we go down first? I'm tired and I would like to rest on your laps. Please?" There it was. He had tried his luck and frankly speaking the frown on her face is already a firm no and he almost gave up the thought when she bursts into a fit of laughter.

" come on old man. To think you are the oldest being in existence yet you still fawn over your tiny powerless mother? Tsk. What would Athena say?" Shit! How did she find out about Athena?

"And before you ask how I know about your little escapades with her you might want to look at your forest first." Huh? Look at my forest? What's she talking abou... fuck! This stupid dragon! How did I not notice how it's massive size destroyed one-third of the forest? Glaring at the dragon that couldn't help but release sounds of distress at the threatening aura that bounced off of Hades in thick waves, he turned to his mother with a look of 'this is all your fault!'.

"Don't fix it yet. Why don't we sit on her and talk? Those scales look really nice." Sighing defeatedly he glared once more at the dragon who understood the silent command and flew down to the ground.

"Come sit with me Hades. And for fucks sake stop glaring at her! It's not like you can't fix it easily. Now tell me what happened. You look strained."

Hades couldn't help but follow her down and only sat down after kicking that stupid dragon.

Giving in to his wish, she patted her laps with a small smile and he happily laid on his back and placed his head on her lap. Seeing as his mom was calm enough now Sam slowly emerged from Hades and laid his head on her other lap.

She couldn't have as much children as she wanted but her two sometimes three kids were more than enough for her. Besides, Hades and Samael were already a pain in her neck. Silverline honestly doesn't think she could handle more kids.

Running her fingers through their hair she hummed a low tune and they all sat quitely on the dragon for a while and just enjoyed the tranquility. They had done more than enough delaying.

"Sam wiped the kheros[1] out." Hades finally broke the silence and pinned everything on his other half.

"Hey! You also joined in on it. Don't pin everything on me you bloodthirsty frog."

"Well you didn't tell me to stop so it's your fault."

"I also didn't tell you to go berserk like a raging lunatic. How is that my fault?" And just like that they kept throwing the blame at each other and frankly speaking they were cute doing that but silverline had gotten tired of listening to their bickering.

"Ouch!"

"Fuck!"

They both winced in pain as their mother gripped their hair with brutal force.

"If you both don't shut up this instant I'll send you guys off to your grandfather!" That definitely got them to shut up.

Their grandfather was such a brute. Don't get them wrong. They loved the old skunk but he could be an overbearing asshole with an incorrigible anger sometimes and frankly speaking they do not want to deal with him.

"Mother, you're going to make me bald if you keep pulling at my hair like that!"

"And I plan on doing that as long as you keep spitting cuss words out that mouth of yours!"

Sam just watched in glee as his mother pulled harder at Hades hair.

"I'm sorry I won't do it again I promise. Ouch damn it. Mother!"

"You're bad at keeping promises Hades. You just cussed again"

Hades sighed in relief as his mother finally let his hair go. If she had pulled any harder he would definitely have a bald spot on his head. Fuck!

"Now spit it out both of you. My hands are getting itchy"

"Hades former officer. Phines. The one I gave the eternal sand to. He took his minions and destroyed a whole continent in the human world so we went over to talk to them about it." Samael was honestly hoping she would not ask about the details and also forget how they had pinned the blame on each other but alas this was his mother. He was hoping in vain.

"And by 'talking' you mean slaughtered!" That was definitely not a question!
