Cory's gray hood was up as he glanced around nervously on his way to his father's apartment from the train station. He was missing great moments, no doubt, but it was better he wasn't at Prom with Anabelle. It's probably for the best that he's with his dad in his last hours of life anyways. Aunt Ginger will be here, but Roy will be at Camp enjoying himself at Prom, even with his wheel chair.
Cory blinked as he reached the apartment number, flash backs soared through his head, and his eyes widened, so this is why he came for reals...to learn what he ment to so long ago. If only he could remember were it was. He walked up the stairs and opened the door, and to his suprise, the women sitting in the chair next to his father wasn't his Aunt, it was his mother, Nyx. What was she doing here?
Cory looked up in surprise and said with slight anger in his voice, "Isn't it against the rules to be here?" A small smile broke the solomn goddess's face.
"Rules are ment to be broken, boy. I'm here on Hades's orders, he wants me to be here when Zachary dies, so his job is easier and I can take him to live with me in my part of the Underworld. Its better this way."
"What about My Aunt?"
"She came and is checking in with the hospital and is on her way back now, Zachary will be gone by then, and as will I. You will be the one who remains."
"Today should be a good day, not a day when my father dies."
Nyx gave a small sigh, "Your life has been so full of misery...and I am sorry for that, its my fault. But this is no reason to reject your father to go to some dance!"
Cory sighed and sat down on the floor, head on his knees and just watched silently.
