Reborn As Hades In Olympus

"Dammit!" I covered up my face and cried again, there was no one but my empty hotel room to hear me out. I did not leave my place for a whole day, my body just slumped down in bed like a dead man, the fact that I had just killed one of the greatest characters in all of Greek mythology like that. If only I had prevented the first calamity.

No one even cared about where I went after that night, now that I really thought about it— I haven't seen Hecate since that night. Makes me wonder if she had something to do that she would just abandon me.

After the party everyone was in chaos leaving me with Hermes, Zeus was also there and a few higher up gods. There was nothing any of them could do, I still remember all the shocked faces they had-- everyone cried. What happened after then? Why can't I remember? My head hurts when I try to relive it all over again. "Hermes I'm so sorry."

I gritted my teeth in anguish. Now what could I do to quench this burning pain in my chest? I was alone as usual, I've always been alone.

I closed my eyes again and slowly drifted into a deep slumber, a part of me wished I would die there and never come back. Yes— I deserved it!

How long had it been since I had been asleep? I still feel drowsy so I dont think I slept much so why did I wake up instead-- oh thats right.

KNOCK! KNOCK!

Damn, I thought I told the receptionist I did not want to be disturbed, or did I--? Damn my head is a mess. Just go away whoever you are and let me die here. Trust me it will help us a whole lot.

BANG! BANG!

Wow someone has his underpants in a bind. Maybe I should check it out, could be the devil coming for my soul— right, I forgot-- I am the devil here! Can I even move my body from here?

BANG! BANG!

"Lord Hades please a word." I heard a thick male voice, not dark enough to be the devil.

I grumbled as I climbed out of bed and dragged my feet to the door. "I swear it better be the devil or I'll lose it...." I gripped the door knob and noticed my hand trembling, my whole body was. Maybe because I haven't eaten in a day, it's surprising that I was even alive.

This better be good, I opened the door slightly to see two figures standing there dressed in all white apparel. Angels--? No I don't believe in angels, they don't exist in the real world or Greek mythology.

But who were these guys?

The person in front was a man with brown moustache and wearing a short white coat, his hair was slightly gelled to the back, he wore a pair of square glasses on his face. He was taller than I was and looked forty but I'm sure he could be a few hundred years or maybe a thousand. I could see a badge on his chest with a silver colour that said the words "BIA CORPS".

It's the po-po, haha— !! Wait a minute! The police exist on Olympus? What the hell.

"Sorry to have disturbed you Lord Hades but I am detective Pine of the Bia corps." The man offered his hand for a shake which I just over looked and turned to look at the other officer at the other end of the wall. She had short well cut straight hair overlapping half her face, from her piercing silver coloured eyes I could tell she was quite willful and brutal.

She wore a long white coat that reached down to her legs, white trousers and white shoes, talk about a daring choice of wear.

All she did was glare at me constantly like a predator analysing it's prey, I know I looked shitty so what.

I wonder what race they were, but there was no way they were human. Could they be other gods?

The man-- Pine started to speak but I was not listening much, doing so was a bother. "We are currently investing the death of the messanger god Hermes and would like for you to comply and come to the station just to answer a few questions. We know you must be grieved but we believe Hades was assassinated and would like to find the culprit."

Could hae just emailed me, makes me feel like a prime suspect. But why can't we just do the questioning here? It's too much of a bother to leave, used to wonder why they did that in movies though.

"Acck fine, give me a minute. Just know you're paying for my meal." I said as I withdrew back into my room, the only reply I got was an awkward.— "Yeah, sure."

Great, now I am going to the station. Why would Olympus have a police force? Now that I think about it, the more I think I know of Olympus— the less I really know.

I was just about to change when I suddenly remembered something from my past life— BIA. It's Greek, Bia was a character from my studies. It is not well known but because I was a scholar I studied every bit of Greek myths but there's no way I can know it all. Unless Bia wasn't a god, I remember now.

Bia was never an Olympian god— but a TITAN!! Titans were a race of giant gods in Greek mythology that preceded and was overthrown by the Olympian gods. They were the first beings to use the term gods, I was now gripped with fear as I thought of something grave but I dispelled the thought.

The titans far surpassed the Greek gods in strength before they were overthrown by the twelve, in turn saving this world from destruction. The Roman name of Bia was Vis, the bame was believed to mean "THE PERSONIFICATION OF FORCE" but how does that tie in to the Bia force?

Come on think harder! I need to know what I'm getting myself into-- Bia was the daughter of the titans PALLAD & STYX. Yes it's all coming back. Bia and her siblings were constant companions of Zeus. They achieved this honour after supporting him in the Titan War along with their mother. Bia was one of the crucial characters in the binding of PROMETHEUS who was also a TITAN.

She also plays a pivotal role in the story of Prometheus since Bia was the only one strong enough to actually bind Prometheus to the rock with the unbreakable chains.

Since Bia was a personification of force does that mean an entire police force was created in her memory or did she form the police force. But for what purpose. I had forgotten that someof the original titans like Bia and Prometheus were still alive, that would explain why a majority of the gods on olympis did not originate from the original twelve but as offsprings of the titans themselves.

I could tell that I was smiling wildly at the prospect of how wide the world just expanded in my mind. A new world of possibilities. Perhaps if I go with them I could find out how Hades died. Feeling a new depth of hope I changed into a simple black polo and trousers, finishing off with a pair of silver sneakers. I swear Hades has a thing for black and it's not pretty.

BHAM!!

Just a few questions they said and here I was sitting in an interrogation room, it was square, the walls were well fortified. There was that glass mirror that was one way see through. A bright lamp over out heads. The interrogated-- ME, sitting on the uncomfortable steel chair and my hands on the cold steel table, a cup of hot chocolate next to me.

To be clear I did not order for the chocolate but I did develop a craving for sweets recently.

Pine sat before me and the other woman standing with her back to the wall, I was surprised she maintained the same pose as earlier. "Lord Hades, how is your chocolate?"

I made a loud slurping sound and I drank from the mug and set it down shortly after, my tongue danced for joy from the sweet sensation. "Not enough sugar." I lied. I've watched enough crime movies to know this— I was a suspect and there was no chance for me to give myself away. "If you want to get on with your questions then get on with it."

Pine pulled back slightly and cleared his throat before he spoke. "I will begin then. We have reason to belive that you Lord Hades was responsible for the death of Hermes!"

I maintained my calm composure at what he said but deep down I was freaking out. Like what the HELL!! I killed Hermes? Well I know I did but did they have evidence?

"Oh, really?" I ran my finger around the rim of my mug and maintained eye contact with Detective pine, I knew he was checking for any slight flicker or blink but I had firewalls in place for that. "Can you justify that or are you just making baseless accusations to provoke me?" I kept my voice stable and tried not to waver.

Of course they had evidence of it, why else would they accuse me of all people?

Pine opened up his laptop and tapped on a button before turning it to face me. "This is you right from hours before the party?" I shifted my gaze slightly to the small screen to watch the scene from when Hermes came to meet me earlier that day to confess something and Hecate interrupting us.

"There is no audio but we deduce that you had threatened Hermes somehow to make him breakdown in such a way and when he did not comply you had your assistant assault him physically. It was a clear case of physical assault and extreme manipulation. You left a while after sending him off but came back afterwards to dismiss your assistant, clearly in a bad mood."

OH S**T--!

Pine continued to compound the problem I was already faced with, the facts really did make me seem like culprit, it was all too perfect. "The substance found in the lungs of Hermes from the autopsy was black amber, a strange liquid that is quite lethal to gods. Amazingly it can only be found in one place, care to guess?"

I tilted my head slightly backwards. "Sorry but I'm not the investigator, so why don't you go on with your smart talk before I start mine."

Pine was not moved by my threat one bit so he continued. "The underworld is the only place known where black amber naturally exists and it reacts violently to dark energy which you are composed of. We believe Hermes died the moment he approached you because of the activation of--"

BOOM!!-- I hit the table creating a loud boom that made Pine jump. Dammit, now it all made sense! The reason why Eris asked me not to come to the party just before Hermes appeared, the reason why she got me away from the party and asked me not to meet him, it was all because of this. Was she trying to save me or Hermes? So she was on my side.

If the black amber did activate when I was near and Hermes was fine earlier that night, did that mean he was poisoned somewhere in between? That means-- whoever tried to kill Hades is after me again. And this time I won't lose!!
