Mute
Mute Peresphone meets Hades at highschool.
Mom had never really let me go to far away from home without her. She my voice so I couldn't blame her but she knew how high depression rates were in teenagers now so she thought sending me to a small public school where her friend Hera taught at would be good for me.
Sign language was a required thing many kids were taught at this school so I wouldn't need a translater (unless there was a new kid who knew little about sign language).
Am I scared? Definitely. I don't meet a whole lot of new people and well just the thought of being in a new place alone is unnerving for me.
As soon as I walk in the school already a few people are looking at me.
I look away and continuing walking towards my locker avoiding anyone and everyone.
And then I run into someone.
"Watch where you're going asswipe!" A woman who sound like she smokes growls out at me.
I glare up at her, she's the type of girl that wears so much makeup, and dresses it's hot as Hell. So like any other girl minding her own busniness but she really needs to fuck off.
I sign 'Fuck yourself bitch' at her. She looks confused then laughs to her friend that is scarily skinny, and looms tired behind her makeup. "It's retarded."
I get up and pull my left hand back ready to swing at her when someone carches it.
I turn around and see a gothic looking teenager holding my hand back.
"Scarm whore." The dark haired teen growls out and she leaves looking terrified with her friend.
I glare at the guy and sign "Thanks, but I had the situation."
He goes down and picks up my books for me while saying;
"Getting into a fight on the first day would lead you to suspension or detention in the same room as her."
He hands me my books and I give him another "Thanks."
"What's your name?" He asks me.
I sign my name slowly in the alphabet so he can catch it.
"I'm Hades, Presephone welcome to a place worse than Hell."
He wasn't joking, the teachers sped through every lesson even when most of us had our hands up to ask for help.
They yelled at every little thing you did, (I'm pretty sure you have to be drunk to be this angry), and God forbid that I heard someone having sex in the janitors closet (I thought that was a myth).
"I am already hating this school." I signed to Hades as we sat outside under a tree at lunch.
"Join the club." He said. "It gets better if you learn to stay quiet."
I laugh (yes I can laugh I just can't speak) and of course he looks shocked.
"Being quiet won't be hard for me." I sign.
Hades chuckles "No it would be impossible for you." He says sarcastically.
I go home that night with my first school friend in my phone ready to text my best friend Artemis about it.
At first she was like "Dude nice."
Then I told her his name and she was like.
"YOU TAMED THE BEAST?!"
I was like;
"The Beast?"
Then she said;
"Hades was once part of this gang that was really big in the east side of Greece his brothers were in rival gangs, they called Hades the Grim Reaper because he always did the dirty jobs.
One day he left with his brothers because his older brothers, Zeus, his gang wanted his brothers dead."
Artemis doesn't gossip, she tells the truth and I know this for a fact.
So of course I believed her but I wasn't scared of Hades. He's my friend and I trust him.
Months later when we were walking home from school. It's a cold day so Hades is wearing a black leather jacket and bennie. I'm wearing a long sleeved dark green dress that goes down below my kneees with black leggings.
He's talking about how some kid in his History class went outside to shit in the hallway which made me laugh. He always amkes2me laugh and it always makes him look at me softly.
He looks away for a second and scrunches up his eyebrows across the street. I look with him and see a guy that looks like he is use to warmer weather, about twenty years old, run to us across the street. Hades stiffened.
"Zesus text me." The guy panted "We gotta go. Now. They're here."
Hades looked at me then to the guy that kind of looked like him.
"Pre," he sighed out. "Go home and text me as soon as you get there. Promise me."
I nodded, and he squeezed my right hand and left runing east with who I assume is his brother.
I walked a few more blocks before I noticed a red honda following me.
Shit. Shit. Shit. Not cool.
I get out my phone and unlock it. Hades chat is up first so I call him.
"Yeah?" He says
I give off two short whistles. Which is code for it's me.
We normally video call so he hopefully he knows something is up if I am calling.
"Pre, I hate to do this to you but can you call Artemis?"
I hesitate then give off one long whistle. Meaning; "Yes,"
"Thanks, look be safe okay?"
Another long whistle.
Then I hang up, the something is over my nose. Then I'm not struggilign I'm trying to step on this bastards toes, trying to elbow him. Then I'm too weak to move and close my eyes.
