Morgana was 6 years old when she found out what the choice was...

Morgana was sitting with Cerberus as Hades and Persephone watching over her.

"I can't believe she's six." Persephone says
"I know." Hades says holding her hand and they hear Morgana laughing.

The laughter was then cut off with screams
"Daddy! Mommy! Help." Morgana screams and they rush to her side
"What's wrong, little princess?" He asks.

"Look." With her right hand she points to her left with fire glowing from it.
"Aw baby." Persephone says and takes her into her arms.

"There's nothing wrong with that, honey." She strokes her hair
"Look." She says and holds out her own hand to see a flower grow. Morgana looks at it in awe and touches it, it quickly disintegrates.

"Oh." Persephone says and tears well into Morgana's eyes and hides her face in her neck.

"It's okay." Persephone says and strokes her hair
"I'm trying to say is that we have powers." Persephone says.

"But my powers..." Morgana looks at her hand and the flames start to burn out
"Aren't pretty." Morgana mumbles.

"They are beautiful. Just like you." Hades then takes her into his arms
"Really?" She asks
"Yes, my little princess." He says and she giggles.

"I'm not little." She says.

"You'll always be my little princess." He says
"You know, when you're older and your powers will become magnificently strong, you'll have a choice." He says.

"What kind of choice?" She asks
"See, humans worship us. When you make the choice you'll be known as either Daughter of Hades or Daughter of Persephone." He says.

"Okay?" She asks
"It's a little more complicated than that. We'll explain when you're older." Persephone says and kisses her daughter's hair.

2 years later

Morgana was playing with Cerberus
"Are you sure they'll get here?" Hades asks pacing around
"They will." Persephone says.

"Fuck!" Morgana shouts and they rush to her
"How does she know that word?" He asks Persephone who just looks at him and they see her tapping Cerberus' tail that has fire on it as his heads try to blow it out.

"What happened, my little princess?" He asks
"I was playing with his tale and I maybe lit his tale on fire." Morgana pouts.

"Yeah they need to get here." He says
"I'm sorry." She says, looking down
"It's not your fault." He says and kisses his daughter's hair.

"Hades!" They hear a woman shout
"They're here." Hades says,
"I'll get Hermes to look after her." Persephone says and Hades nods.

"I'm here." Hermes says
"Good, we have the fates here about Morgana." Hades whispers
"Ah, okay." Hermes says.

"If she lights anything on fire just make sure she doesn't believe it's her fault." Hades says
"If she what?" Hermes asks.

"Cousin Hermes... I lit the boat on fire." Morgana says
"Oh great. Just great." Hermes says and walks to her.

🔥

"Sorry about that. Morgana had a little incident." Hades says walking to them
"We know." Clotho says.

"She lit Cerberus' tail on fire." He says
"We know." Lachesis says.

"Hermes is looking after her." He says
"We know!"  Atropos exclaims.

"I know! You know!" Hade shouts and Persephone touches his shoulder
"It's okay, I'm okay, I'm cool." He says.

"Now, we need to know about Morgana." Persephone says
"Ah yes the child." Clotho says
"She is powerful." Lachesis states
"Like her father." Atropos glances at Hades up and down.

"Moving on." Persephone says slightly glaring at her while holding Hades hand.

The sisters held each other's hand
"Your daughter is a very powerful goddess. She will grow into immense beauty along with her power." Clotho says.

"What about the choice?" Hades asks
"It might be sooner than you think."Lachesis says,
"How soon?" He asks.

"5,992 years."
"How is that soon?" Hades asks
"Would you just let us do our job." Clotho snaps.

"Okay, okay." Hades crosses his arms
"There will be a moment when she may falter but she will be strong but there comes a choice. Between you and your wife." Atropos says.

"What will she choose?" Hades asks
"The right decision." Clotho says.

After the events in Ancient Greece

"Father!" Morgana rushes down the steps to her father side
"What is it, my little princess?" He asks
"I did it." Morgana says.

"My potential. We need to make the choice and I will come back to the mortal world." She rushes tugging on her father's hand
"Woah, where are we going?" He asks.

"To Olympus. The quicker I get the choice the quicker I can get back to her." She says
"Morgana-"
"Come on." Morgana says.

"Morgana!" Hades stops in his tracks
"You haven't." He says
"What?" She asks.

"You haven't." He says,
"That's unbelievable." Morgana shakes her head
"No it's not. You are stronger." He says.

"The fates said you'll be just over 6,000." He says
"No. What I did... what I did to him, I loved him." She shakes her head.

"The people I killed." She whispers.

"I need to see them." Morgana says
"What?" Hades asks
"The fates." She says
"You can't just get the fates here." Hades says.

"Dad!" Morgana shouts,
"Please." She whispers and he nods.

🔥

"What is it?" Clotho asks tying string around her fingers,
"You spoke to my father eons ago. About my power." Morgana says
"Ah yes. Morgana, you have grew up into a wonderful and beautiful woman." Lachesis says.

"You said I will have the choice in when I'm 6,000 years old. But I have reached my potential." Morgana says.

"You have only just scrapped the surface of your great power." Lachesis tells her and Morgana nods.

"How is she?" Morgana asks
"Your lover?" Lachesis asks and Morgana nods and she looks over at her sisters without saying a word

"What is it?" Morgana asks and they all look to Atropos
"Morgana." She begins
"Her time came too soon." Atropos says.

"No." Morgana shakes her head and walks back and Hades catches her from falling.

"I think it's best if you all leave. Thank you for your time." He says and they disappear.

"It's alright." He soothes as she sobs into his arms
"This is why we don't interfere with mortals." He says and she nods.

"She was going to be immortal with me." She says.

"We were supposed to all be together."

"Forever."

🔥

Morgana stood looking out to the underworld
"You know, for a world of death and destruction. It's quite pretty." She says.

"Are you going to choose this forever?" Henrik asks
"I don't know." Morgana says and then touches her bump,
"What do you think their powers will be?" She asks.

"Probably like his mother's and they will learn how to fight because good bonding experience." Henrik says
"Oh yes totally." Morgana says.

"So, how does this work? The choice." He asks
"I spend a night here and I night in Olympus then I choose." Morgana says.

"Why haven't you ever talked about The Choice?" Henrik asks
"Because the last time I thought I had unlocked my power it was after the night where Silas became immortal and then the night Qetsiyah died." Morgana tells him and Henrik holds her hand.

"I saw him." Morgana says
"Who?"
"Silas." She says.

"And when was this?" Henrik asks
"At Prom, he stole Stefan's body." She says and his thumb caresses her hand
"You know, let's go back and we can forget about the mortal world." He suggests and Morgana nods.

The night was victorious.

Morgana spent the night talking with thousands of subjects that lived in the underworld.

Morgana was able to hide her bump with her dress so no one suspected a thing.

"Morgana!" She turns to see Hermes
"Hi!" She hugs him,
"How are you?" He says
"I'm okay." She says.

"I just can't believe it. You are able to make The Choice." He says
"So what are you picking?" He asks
"That is something I'll never tell till the day after tomorrow." Morgana says and Henrik walks up to them and wraps his arms around her waist.

"Oh come on, you owe me. Considering the last time we saw each other." He says
"Okay, you know how much I am competitive." She says
"You pretended to be my fiancée and then killed me." He says.

"It was no that bad." She says
"You transported us to a volcano." He says
"Okay, maybe it was." She shrugs.

"The story you told was different." Henrik whispers to her
"I didn't want it to seem like I was kissing my cousin." She whispers.

"Right and also the fact you nearly died in a volcano." He adds and she nods.

"Now you get it." She smiles and he scoffs and rolls his eyes.
"Unbelievable."

"And who's this?" Hermes asks
"This is Henrik, my husband." Morgana  smiles
"Husband?" He asks
"One of seven soulmates." She says.

"Seven? I can't even get a date." He says
"You have a wife." Morgana points out
"Eh." He shrugs and Morgana grimaces.

"Okay." She mutters.

🔥

The next day

"Right, I love you, dad." Morgana hugs her father tightly
"Now, here are your vitamins, minerals, iron supplements." He says.

"Dad-" Morgana says
"Your pregnancy pillow, your latest cravings, baby book." He says
"Dad, I will be fine. You shouldn't worry." She says.

"Here's your lavender essential oil for you to sleep." Henrik says walking in
"Here's your rosemary oil for your hair." Kol says
"Your body lotion." Klaus says
"Your crystals." Rebekah says
"More of your cravings." Finn says
"Your robe." Elijah says
"And your slippers." Freya says.

"Alright!" Morgana groans
"I am leaving for a day. A day! It's only for if I choose to live there I will have to go without you all." She sighs.

"I love you all but I need to go." She says and leaves.

"Okay, put your hand up if this was the first time she has said 'I love you' to you?" Hades asks and some put their hand up.

"Alright." He sighs.

🔥

Morgana entered Olympus she was greeted by a hug from her mother
"I'm so happy you're here." She gleams
"I finally got away, my soulmates are overthinkers that's for sure." Morgana says.

"Oh, they just miss you. Your father was like that."
"Still is." Morgana adds.

"Now let's do something fun." Persephone smiles and Morgana smiles.

🔥

Morgana and Persephone spent time with each other in the past but this was different. This was something that could be forever.

If she chose that.

"I can't believe we never really got to do this." Persephone says
"Yeah, I mean I get it but it's nice." Morgana says,
"You know when I was pregnant with you it was amazing." She smiles.

"I can't wait for you to meet your child." Persephone holds her hand
"I love you." Morgana smiles
"I love you too." She says.

🔥

Aphrodite wraps her arms around Morgana as she walks in,
"How are you, my love?" She asks
"I'm good, my future wife." Morgana says and looks at Ares.

"Even when pregnant you're still trying to steal her." Ares says
"It's called consistency." She says.

"So, how's Olympus treating you." He says
"Better. I understand the appeal of everything." Morgana says
"It's very... Godlike." She says.

"So, do you know if your child is a boy or girl?" Aphrodite asks
"Not yet, with everything going on, we probably won't have time." Morgana says.

"Aw, a surprise. You know when I was pregnant I had a dream of my little one before they came into this world." She says and Morgana nods with an anxious smile.

"You'll be fine." She caresses Morgana's face with a smile
"Mom." Morgana says with panic
"Aphrodite, she's about to pass out with the increasing amount of blood pumping out her heart." Persephone says.

"Sorry, I forgot about the hormones pregnancy can produce." She chuckles
"Yeah. Good luck." Ares says.

"Oh thank you for your male support." Morgana scoffs.

"What?" Ares asks his wife as he looks offended by the attitude.

🔥

Morgana sat on a bed that was made for her. Her mother walks in with a smile on her face but it falters when she sees the sadden look on her daughter's face.

"What's wrong?" Persephone asks
"What if I pick the underworld and I basically have to leave you. Or what if I pick Olympus, will dad be mad." Morgana says.

"Oh, honey. None of us will be mad, we don't fully understand because we didn't have to have this great big decision put on our shoulders." She says,
"No matter what decision you make we will both love you the same." She says.

"Thanks mom." Morgana smiles
"No problem, sweetie. Now, you need some rest, big decision tomorrow."

"Night." She says and Morgana closes her eyes and starts to drift away to sleep.

🔥

"So how does this work?" Kol asks Ares as they stand in a room with hundreds of gods and demigods with Hades standing on the right side of the room with a black throne at the end and Persephone standing all the way on the left with a gold throne with flowers coming out of it. In the middle of the crowd was a gap that led to double doors.

"Morgana comes out of the middle of the crowd and then walks to either her mother or father and it will be her choice forever." Ares says bluntly.

Then everyone goes quiet as the double doors open and Morgana steps into the room with a pale white night gown with her hair down. She steps to the edge of the end of the passage way and o looks to her mother and then her father.

She takes a breath and steps forward, she turns to her mother with a sad smile on her face and turns to her father and walks to him.

With every step the ground creeps onto her skin and her dress transforms to a black lace ball gown.

🔥
The dress

🔥

She gets to her father and he reaches his hand to her, Morgana looks back at her mother for a second as she sees her giving an approval nod.

She takes her father's hand and sits on throne with black thorns weaving through it.

Her father turns to his left and takes out a black crown with the same black thorn vines weaved throughout.

"Morgana, do you swear yourself to the underworld and I as your king?" Hades asks his daughter,
"I swear." Morgana says
"And do you swear yourself as the heir as the underworld?" He asks
"I do." She says and he places the crown on her head.

"I thought she had to swear to Zeus as the king of the gods?" Klaus asks
"She doesn't, she doesn't when she chose the underworld." Hera says.

"Does she know that?" Henrik asks
"No. He is banned from the ceremony." She says.

"May I present," Hades holds Morgana's hand to make her stand,
"Morgana, Goddess of Torture, Daughter of Hades and Persephone and Future Queen to the Underworld." He says and applauds erupt through the room.

After all these years.

She finally made The Choice.
