"I'm sorry... I can't just give you the eye." Queen Meghan says.

"Just give it to us and we can skip the whole threatening phase." Hades sighs.

"If you want my advice, give him the eye." I brush myself off.

"Is your neck, okay?" Ash asks me.

"Fine! Yeah. Fine!" I yelp.

I feel my neck. Yeesh, that does not feel good. It feels wet and sticky. This isn't a good situation. Hades is relentless and he always gets what he wants one way or another. He doesn't care who has to die. Hades rolls his eyes.

"Do you know how many people are in this room, your majesty?" Hades asks.

"Several." Nyx answers.

"I wasn't talking to the less fey in the room." Hades spits at her.

Nyx draws forward. I throw my dagger forward. A string appears and ties her up like chains.

"So, you are partly useful little brother." Hades claps his hand.

"I will take that as a compliment." I say.

"I'm sorry, but I can't give you the Eye of Chaos." Meghan says.

"Listen your majesty, have you met my brother?" I ask.

Seriously, give us they eye. You don't know who you're messing with. 

"I'm sorry to." Hades launches at Ash.

I jump. Mabe stands up. Hades locks his hand around Ash's neck. I see Ash struggling. Oh crap. This will not go well. Meghan screams something. I draw back. I tried to warn her. I tried to warn them all. Why does no one listen to me? I feel like I'm the only one who understands what's going on.

Ash screams in pain as Hades uses the power of decay. His magic can drain the life of anyone or anything. I bite my lip. I can see ice boy's skin withering. Age floods through him. In a rather painful way. This type of magic makes my skin crawl. It's terrifying. It's horrifying. I see blood dripping from Ash's nose. 

"Alright! I'll give you the eye!" Queen Meghan screams.

"Wise choice." Hades drops Ash.

He gasps for air. I let out a breath as I decide to help him up. 

"Thanks Puck." Ash pants.

"Stop calling me Puck. I find it insulting." I say.

"Take us to the eye, Meghan." Hades says.
