It wasn't the sunniest day, but the weather, despite how dull, still held a welcoming embrace to the young Princess as she strode with purpose towards a clearing in the nearby woods on the outskirts of the Kingdom she was currently residing in. Brushing the back of her hair with her hand as she hummed absently to herself.
The shade of tree's thinned out and she smiled to herself, humming continuing on in a melody she had heard only once before. She crouched down to retrieve a blooming rose from a bush, admirring the deep red petals as she continued on.
The Clearing came into view, and she sighed. She was stood on the edge of a sparkling blue pool, a rock hung over it like a diving board made natually for this magical place. She walked to that and sat down, watching the silent waves crashing up onto the banks. Washing over the palest shade of green grass. She layed on her stomach, rose still clasped in her hand, and her face leaning again the palm of her rose-free hand.

Hades was furious. He wanted his hands on that power he had heard about in Atlantis. Hades didn't even know how to get there. He really wasn't in the mood to talk to his brother Posidon, but if he had too....He saw a girl in a clearing up ahead. Hades closed his eyes to calm down. His hair turned flaming blue once more. The black smoke coming from his legs left the little plants lifeless.
"Hello there my dear." Hades said in a smooth voice. He was smiling in the darkness. Wondering if she could see him. Suddenly the sky got dark. This always happenned to him when he was out of the Underworld.
"What are you doing so deep in the forest?"

It hadn't been that late, and she had only been here for a few moments but it was suddenly dark, she gasped and sat up, string with wide innocent eyes, lips partly open. But as a voice called to her she turned, gasping louder and raising to her feet. Swallowing hard and staring at him fearfully.
She didn't know who he was, nor why he was here, in her magical place... Talking to her. Biting on her lower lip she tried to smile, but his appearence was frightening to look at and she was finding the simplest of tasts so very hard to do.
"Oh. I was admiring the magic." She breathed, taking a few steps back, wanting to flee the place as soon as she could, but her lets had frozen as she stared at his head, his hair was actually made of a strange blue fire...
She hadn't noticed that the rose had fallen from her gasp and was still laying on the rock hanging over the waters edge. It was then that her eyes caught site of the dead plants and grass on his side of the pool.

Hades smiled. He loved the part where he scared people. To them is was like seeing death and all people feared death no matter how much they denied it. Hades them moved out of the darkness and moved towards the rose on the floor. He lifted it in his long boney fingers and as he held it it burned to ashes. "Sorry." he said smiling.
"I have forgotten my manners. I am Hades. " he said looking at the woman in front of him.

Her beautiful blood red rose was burnt to cinders before her very eyes and she watched it crumble to the ground mornfully. His voice broke through her shock and she looked back to him, brown eyes wide.
"Snow White." She replied, looking behind her and then to both sides, hoping someone else would come along. Normally she would be happy to meet someone new, but at the sight of the person; was he even human? before her, all thoughts of manners were put behind her. Her back against the ruff surface of the tree behind her, the thin materal of her dress not doing much to protect her delicate skin.

Hades' smile got bigger. the shock and horror in her eyes gave him a sort of pleasure. He then knew who she was once she said her name. The woman who had dwarfs as friends. Not the most best of friends, but it suited that girl at least.
"Well then Ms. White." he said looking at her. "There is no need to fear me. I am just as human as you are.Except for the fact I will never die, and I never age." he said his smile weakening a bit.

Although his smile was as alarming as the rest of his appearence, she felt some what more assured. He couldn't surely be cruel enough to gain her trust, then cause harm to her. Could he? However, she felt her legs move again, and she was walking closer to him, her lips quirking into a small, gental smile.
"How can you be Human, but never die? Sir..." She added as an after thought. Stopping short a good few feet away from the imposing figure of the man.

Hades saw the girl come closer to him. His smile got larger once more. Hades walked ina little more. His smoke trapsing behind him. He looked at the girl who was considered one of the fairest of them all.
"Well you see my dear." He started walking next to the stump of a tree and sat down. He formed a drink which had a skull on it.He drank heavily. The pink juice then seemed to appear again as if untouched in the glass. "I am a god. So I am a human to a certain extent." He said taking another drink.
"You want something Snow?" he said to her.

Snow White gave the man an alarmed look and shook her head.
"No... Thank you."
She backed off a little then, and settled down on a rock, making sure her dress covered her thin little legs. A God. She gasped at this, and put a hand to her mouth, eyes wide yet again. Had she disrespeced a God? She bit into her lower lip again.
"Oh, I am sorry." She whispered, fearing the worst, he didn't seem like any God she had ever heard about, and just his appearence gave the opinion he wasn't at all a mercifull God.
She looked the the sky again, it was still dark.
"How did you make it so dark? It was only early afternoon when I arrived."

Hades' smile weakened. She was becoming relaxed so it wasn't as fun anymore. His smile now softened into parted lips. He spoke with great power in his voice. "I didn't do that, it just happens when I leave my kingdom and I come above. " Hades explained.
Hades looked at the sky, his brother was up there, happy as ever with a kingdom worth having...

Snow nodded again, understanding in a way she couldn't understand. God's that make the world dark just by leaving their kingdom. After a while, realising she should probably leave before she found herself missing a limb, or in the worst case, dead. Smiling at him, she curtseyed.
"I must go now. It was a pleasure to meet you....." She trailed off, and with a look to the pool, back to him and then to her burnt rose, she scurried off. Looking over her shoulder once to make sure he had not followed.
