"Ugh what is the point of this", I said very exasperated, "Stealing a soul is just too difficult". "Nonsense", my father replied, "Nothing is too difficult if a harpy can you most definitely can". I tried to take the soul of the oh so adorable tiger in front of me, "Why is this even necessary". "Where under the earth do you think spirit animals come from", he asked, "I don't just pluck them from the heaps of souls here". "Why not use yours then", I whispered underneath my breath. "What was that", he asked, "Nothing", I replied quickly. "I know its difficult but you need to be ready", my father said putting his hands on my shoulders, "You have to be ready to take care of your own undead world at least part of mine". I just rolled my eyes at that. I pushedy messy black and red locks out of my face, "What if I looked after an actual living world". "Darling we both know that can't be", he said, "Why don't I take you and your mother topsoil for some real pizza". I couldn't say no to that preposition. "Go in and call your mother and say hi to Cerberus", he shouted at me, "He's getting lonely". I passed by Cerberuses house. "Hey Cerberus", I shouted out. He shapeshifted into a humanoid form but he still had the ears and tail, "Where is the princess of death and her family going". I rolled my eyes, "We're going topsoil for some 'za", I said, "Want some". "Always", he said before shapeshifting back and walking towards the gates. I barged into my mother's study, "Dad said we're going topsoil". My mother smiled, "Its been a while since I've been there". "Andromeda get your hands of that safe", busted. "Just wanted to see what was in it", I said in a way of response, "It couldn't hurt to just take a little peek....". "I said no", she said sternly, "Now go tell your father that I'll be there shortly". I walked out of her and went to the throne room where I knew my father would be. Before I entered I heard some voices speaking rashly, "Nonsense he couldn't possibly be stirring", that sounded like my uncle, the king of the sky. "There's nothing stopping him unless put something there", this was a different uncle of mine, king of the seas. As much as I wanted to listen in I had to interrupt. "Um dad mom said she'll be here soon", I said in a small voice. "Oh my little flower", he said looking sadly at me, "I can't come with you today maybe another time". "No don't leave her you said she's still training", Poseidon said sympathetically. "I know but I can't put her in harms way", he turned to me, "Go tell your mother that I can't come and tell her my father is waking". I ran to her study but she wasn't there so I went to her room. "Mom dad said he can't go", I said tears welling into my eyes, "And he said to tell you that his father is waking". All she could say was, "Oh no".
