shocked

Ten minutes ago.

In a cave very dark cave,two distinct voices could be heard.

"You've failed ghost of Sparta" a feminine yet dull and cold voice that sends shivers down one's spine sounded.Her voice was like some who was in a deep slumber "All i need is his blood.when the time comes you can do whatever you wish with him"

"I didn't fail" if shield was present he would have recognized this voice as belonging to the person that attacked him earlier. "Hades has seen to it that i am unable to stay in the mortal realm for long. I need to journey to the outer parts of the underworld,to the doors of death. Then will my restrictions be removed". 

"Very well then,but don't you dare fail me kratos. You belong to me. It was only through my help that you were able to destroy Olympus and that wount be for long. The skies are ragging,the seas are churning and the gods of Olympus are awakening. If and when it happens you wount be so lucky next time" the whispering voice sounded.

"I slayed the gods of Olympus with my bare hands" he bellowed "how much more a mere son of Hermes.Even his father trembled at my feet"

"Don't get ahead of yourself kratos. Just because you fought the gods in their materialized form doesn't mean you are more powerful than the gods. Do not forget the prophecy. Get me his blood before the next eclipse else you will perish under the fury of Olympus" the voice echoed.

Minutes later a white figure with red tattoos round its body could be seen coming out of the cave and then descend the mountain.

           My  P.O.V

As i entered the interior of the tomb,i followed the steps that kept spiralling deeper into the ground.        Everywhere was dark except for the light produced from my phone. I kept descending as the steps seemed endless. The Walls on both sides of the steps were black and very smooth.Guess it were made of the Same material as the tomb. After walking for what seemed like an eternity, i finally stepped into a short corridor.when i got to the end of the corridor i saw a door which had no handle. All that was on the door was a palm imprint at its side. I placed my palm on the imprint and strangely it fitted perfectly.A golden light glowed on my palm then the door slid up to reveal a pure white room that gave off a lonley yet peaceful feeling. I walked in with the door closing behind me. The room was almost empty left for a rectangular table with a chair on both ends.

"You know if you had ran,at your speed it wouldn't have taken you two seconds to get here" a voice sounded behind me. I was shocked cos i was sure there was nobody in the room when I entered. I turned and saw a man. He had a glowing fair skin and was dressed in something like a white sleeveless  gown that stopped at his knees. He was rather average in height but had perfectly chiseled muscles. His face was similarly handsome with sharp and angled eyebrows. His eyes were sharp with golden iris giving off a mystical flair. His golden hair was burning fire with each hair strand moving like it were alive.he had a golden band round his head. He had a pair of golden sandals which had small wings on each sides. In his right hand he wielded a sceptre with wings at the head and two snakes spiralling round it,one gold and the other silver. The two snakes were alive as the were bickering with incoherent  language.

"I know you have a lot of questions" the man said interrupting my observations "but ill suggest you first take a sit" he said while appearing on one of the chairs and gesturing for me to take the other.

"Who are you?" I asked still wary of him, though i didn't  feel any threat from him.

"Over the ages I've gone by many names" he said with playfulness in his eyes "some call me the god of theieves,of  trade and shepherding, travels, medicine, dreams and others. My comrades call me Hermes,but you can call me -your father" he elucidated. A deafening silence ensued.

"You... father.... how?"....those were the only words i found myself saying as my brain went blank...
