Chapter Five: Stripped of Title, Torn Hearts


Apollo's world came crashing down around him, the moment word got out about his scandalous relationship with Hades. The once revered god of music and light found himself stripped of his title, cast aside by society and shunned by the other Olympian deities. Apollo's heartache was only magnified by the thought of losing Hades, his beloved.

Banished from Mount Olympus, Apollo had no place to seek solace, no sanctuary to call his own. With nowhere else to turn, he found himself seeking refuge in the depths of the underworld - Hades' realm. Despite the whirlwind of chaos that surrounded them, Hades assured Apollo that he would be right there beside him, no matter what.

Days turned into nights as Apollo and Hades stayed together in the underworld. The dimly lit caverns echoed their laughter and whispered secrets as their love grew stronger with each passing moment. Surrounded by shadows, they discovered solace in each other's arms.

But despite the comforting embrace and endless assurance from Hades, doubt began to settle deep within Apollo's heart. He couldn't help but wonder whether he was becoming a burden to Hades; someone who tarnished his reputation and put him at odds with the entire pantheon.

Apollo's anguish grew day by day as he watched Hades struggle under the weight of the world's disapproval. It pained him to think that he might be causing more harm than good. With a heavy heart and wavering determination, Apollo made a decision that would break both their souls.

One gloomy evening in the depths of Tartarus, Apollo mustered up all his strength and pulled away from Hades' loving grasp. Tears welled up in his eyes as he struggled to voice the words that had been haunting him for days.

"Hades... my love," Apollo choked on every syllable, his voice a mere whisper as he fought against the heart-wrenching ache deep within his chest. "I... I cannot bear to see you suffer any longer because of me. I believe it's best if I were to leave, to spare you from any further hardships."

Hades' eyes widened in shock, his heart breaking at the thought of losing Apollo. Clutching onto him tightly, he pleaded, "No, Apollo! Please don't leave. You are not a burden to me – you are my everything! I would rather face the wrath of the world than be without you by my side."

Tears streamed down Apollo's face as he rested his forehead against Hades', feeling the warmth radiating from their intertwined souls. The conflict within him intensified, torn between his love for Hades and the fear that he was causing more harm than good.

"I love you more than words can express, Hades," Apollo sobbed, each word laden with agony. "But I cannot bear seeing you go through all this pain because of me... Because of our forbidden love."

Hades pressed his lips gently against Apollo's trembling ones, their love pouring into that final kiss filled with bittersweet sorrow. "Apollo," Hades murmured softly against his lover's lips, "I will not let you leave. Together we shall face whatever comes our way, no matter how challenging it may be."

In the midnight Apollo laying beside Hades, caressing his chest gently while Hades is in deep sleep. Apollo couldn't sleep, he felt sleepless has Hades future haunted him, and so he decided to leave.
Apollo gave his final kiss to Hades and whispered into his ears gently saying" my dear Hades I know that leaving you might make you sad but.." Apollo's tears dropped onto Hades cheek with a silent sob.

Without completing his words Apollo turned around and went away with his things, leaving behind the whirlpool of memories for Hades.

They are the villains

Why hate them, try loving them. back stories might break you, their struggles might sound fake to you. Have you lived in any, try proving them one in a many. Did you see their scars or got blinded by their hatred. Did you see their tears or got distracted by fears. Tear down the fabric, open up the door, let in a new light. They are not as bad as they might seem. In beauty and the beast story she accepted the beast. Not many fairytale have made a villains with sad background. Some were just bonded by their old past and couldn't move on. Reverse the path of the fairytale, prince might be spoon fed but they ain't as good as they appears to. What if there was a villian in Cinderella who tried to kill the prince but the whole truth was hidden. What if Cinderella never found her happy ever after in a castle. What if the fairytale told a story of a villan hiding his pain and finding his lover. What if the princesses never wanted a huge castle but a man to genuinely love them. What if...

Knock at the broken heart

He told her, you may be broken and if I knock hard I may break that door but if it's broken I can make you a new one. I can't give you stars but I can give you light. I can't give you moon my but I can show you the sunshine. I can't give you your first winter but I can become your summer. I can't dance with you in the rain but I can give you rainbow. I can't make the tears go away but I can give you the smile for the day. I can't make promises but I can make things happen if you want them to. I might not be your first but I'll try to be your last. I can't say we'll stay together but the time we spent might not be forever. I can give you memories but I can't promise that it might make you sad. But if you think your day is bad look back at those pictures and say and so he said.
