Hercules thinks for a second.
-You like making deals. Take me in Y/N's place, Hercules says and stands up.
-Hmm... the son of my hidden rival trapped forever in a river of death, Hades ponders to himself.
-Going once, Hercules stresses.
-Hold on, is there a downside to this? Hades asks himself.
-Going twice! Hercules stresses a bit more to press Hades.
-Ok! Ok ok ok! Ok! You get her out, she goes. You stay, Hades says. Hercules decides that that is the best deal yet and stands on the tip of the cliff overlooking the river of death. He then leaps and makes a dive directly for Y/N.
-Oh, it just slipped my mind; you'll be dead before you can get to her. That's not a problem for you, is it!? Hades yells after Hercules as he swims deeper and deeper.
Hercules ages and becomes more troubled as he sees the lifeless souls around him. But his eyes widen as he sees Y/N.
The fates start preparing Hercules death as he swims towards his beloved. The fates laugh and croak as they pull harshly on Hercules' lifeline.
Hercules swims desperately towards Y/N as her soul drifts away. The fates take their scissors and slowly push it towards the lifeline. Hercules swim faster and harder than he possibly could imagine, his only goal to save Y/N. He is just millimeters away...
The fates quickly cut the thread, but... it doesn't budge... instead it turns golden and the scissors crack.
-What's the matter with these scissors? One of the fates ask when the life line doesn't break. They try cutting the thread multiple time to no avail.
-The thread won't cut! The other one says as the third one looks at their broken scissors.
In the same moment, a glowing, strong hand takes a hold of the cliff side. It's Hercules. He pulls himself up, Y/N's lifeless soul in his arms.
-That's impossible! Hades frowns.
-You can't be alive, you have to be a uh- Hades stops.
-A god! Scream and panic says as Hercules glows with glory over Hades. Hercules rates before he walks over to the young god.
-Hercules, you- you can't do this to me I- Hades gets cut off by Hercules slamming his fist into his face.
-Ok, we'll I deserved that, Hades tried to play it off.
-Herc Herc Herc, can we talk? Your dad, he's a fun guy, right? Hades says as Hercules makes his way out.
-So maybe you could put in a word with him, and kinda blow this whole thing off, you know? Y/N, Y/N, talk to him, Hades stops Hercules and takes Y/N's face and plays with it in Hercules face. This makes Hercules rage again, so he grits his teeth and socks Hades in the chin, sending him into the river of death before walking on out, back to Pegasus and the others.
He gets back and sits down and carefully places Y/N's soul over her body. Her body softly glows, but remains still. Hercules watches her intensely.
Y/N POV:
I take a deep breath and feel as I was awaken from a never ending sleep. I hear a gasp and open my eyes. There stands Hercules. I smile at him.
-Hercules... why... why did you... I start. Hercules chuckles airily and helps me get up.
-People always do crazy things... when they're in love, he tells me as he looks sadly into my eyes. My eyes widen and I smile.
-Herc... I say.
-I'm sorry... I should've told you earlier, I... I was dumb to not see it, He says. I put a hand on his cheek.
-It's ok... I say and sniffle as tears begin falling. Hercules smiles and starts pulling me in...
But suddenly a flash almost hits us and a cloud forms under us. Hercules holds me tightly as we are lifted from the ground and towards the sky. Soon after us follows Phil and Meg on Pegasus. We are met with the sun and pearly gates, as well as all gods of Olympus. We get to, surprisingly, solid ground and the cloud disintegrates. The gods cheer for Hercules and throws flowers at us. Hercules smiles at me and slowly let's me go as he walks up the stairs to the gates. He hugs his mother and his father dunks him on the back. I smile as his father praises him loudly.
-You we're willing to give your life to rescue this woman, his mother says and some gods look at me. I smile shyly at them.
-For a true hero isn't measured by the size of his strength... but the strength of his heart, Zeus says.
-Now at last, my son... welcome home, Zeus says and the gates open. Gods surround him and I take that as my cue.
-Congratulations Hercules... I knew you'd be one heck of a god, I smile to myself. I begin walking towards Pegasus. Meg and Phil frowns at me. I can only give them a sad smile back.
I pet Pegasus mussle.
-This is something I could only dream of, but... I hear before someone grabs my arm softly. I get turned around and there stands Hercules.
-A life without Y/N, even an immortal life would be... empty, Hercules says and grabs both of my hands and holds them to his chest. He looks me in my eyes before talking again.
-I wish to stay on earth with her, Hercules smiles. I smile as he says that and I jump to hug him. He hugs back as I giggle.
-I finally know where I belong, Hercules breathes and hugs me even tighter.
As we let go, Hercules looks to his father, who nods at him. Hercules then turns back to me.
-May I? He asks. I nod and he brings me in slowly for a kiss. I roll my eyes internally of how careful he is and grab him harshly by the neck to pull him in even closer. He stops for a second, before grabbing my waist and hoisting me up to his level. He smiles into the kiss and so do I.
We get interrupted by singing and Pegasus licking Hercules face and head bumping me. Phil meets Aphrodite and Meg stumble into narcissus, and they practically both make heart eyes. Hercules throws me up onto Pegasus back and hops on himself and starts flying off, but not before grabbing Phil.
We fly back into Thebes and the masses are cheering as we arrive. Hercules helps me get off Pegasus, before running to his mortal parents and hugging them. I follow him and look up. I then Softly poke Hercules' shoulder and he looks up too. The stars are rearranged on the sky to a picture of Hercules.
-Hey, that's Phil's boy! A townsman says loudly. I look down at Phil and he is tearing up. I immediately go in for a hug and Hercules nudge him on the head and Pegasus licks his face. Then we just sit down and look at the stars. Hercules looks at me and grab my hand, kissing the back of it gently.
-I love you, he whispers.
-I love you too... I say. We then go in for another kiss and I place my hand on his cheek as he softly hold me close to him.
Gods know this boy and I were really meant to be...
