Y/N POV:
Soon after I'd left Hercules and Megara, I had been captured by Hades and I'm now watching Hercules give his all as he's fighting the cyclops. I try looking away every time the cyclops hits him.
-Ah Ah Ah princess, let's watch the show live, don't you think? Hades says and grabs my face to look at the horrendous fight. Hercules had given his powers away for me, in the deal that I don't get hurt. Hades apparently took that as a "I'll keep my eye on her". But once Hercules looks defeated, Hades let's me go and I run towards him. Hercules is laying half unconscious in a broken wagon. I stop by him and carefully slap him on his cheek.
-C'mon Herc, don't do this to me, I say as tears begin surfacing. I regret our fight and conflict that we had earlier, all I want is for Jerc to wake up. Tears softly fall from my eyes as I try to wake him up.
Suddenly Phil and Pegasus, along with Meg comes running. Herc opens his eyes and sees me.
-Y/N, he half heartedly smiles.
-Phil, he then says.
-C'mon, you gotta get up and beat this guy! Phil says.
-It's useless. I don't have my powers, how could I defeat him? Hercules says and frowns.
-Hercules, you don't need powers to defeat him. You gotta use your head, I remind him of what Phil told him when he was fighting that ungodly horse. Hercules seems to get an idea and grabs ropes and runs around the big cyclops. He runs for a while, and the cyclops looks around for Herc. Then he just pulls the rope and the cyclops fall a couple of hundred meters from a cliff side that was nearby. When the cyclops lands it shakes the ground so much that house pillars were shaking. Herc looks over the cliff to see if the cyclops is dead... And I see a pillar starting to fall.
-Hercules, watch out! I yell and push him out from where he was and the pillar falls on me...
To say ouch was an understatement.
-Y/N, No! Hercules says and runs towards me. The pillar had managed to fall on my ribs, and let me say that I think it broke a few. Herc gasps as I look at him. Hercules stands up and immediately starts trying to lift the pillar.
-Hercules you can't! Hades took your powers! Meg says.
-I. Don't. Care, Hercules groans as he uses all of his powers... then he starts to glow and it seems like that pillar is easing off of me. When Hercules finally lifts it, he looks confused at me.
-What? He asks.
-Hades he... he promised I wouldn't get hurt, I say and wince. Hercules immediately throws the pillar so it stands back up and very carefully lifts me up and puts me down somewhere else. We were still on the cliff.
Meg carefully lifts my head and places her legs underneath to keep my head propped up and Phil grabs my hand. Hercules backs away.
-You have to stop him, I say to him.
-B-but I can't just leave you! Hercules says.
-Go, Meg says.
-We got her, Phil says. Hercules nods and hops into Pegasus and immediately flies away.

I struggle to breath as my chest was pretty much crushed.
-Take slow deep breaths, Phil instructs. I take very shaky breaths and wince every time it hurts.
I lay there for a while, just trying to breathe, before... I just stop. My heart and brain turn off. And I feel myself fall deep...
Third person POV:
Hercules quickly comes back to tell his love how he won... but quickly realizes that he came too late. Phil shakes his head and Meg is silently crying as she in closing Y/N's eyes carefully. She looked so peaceful as she lays there on the ground. Hercules drops down on his knees and grabs Y/N's body and hugs her close as he cries. Meg and Phil stand back to mourn from a distance. Hercules sobs and hiccups as he whispers his darkest secrets to her. All his regrets, all his pain and all his love for her. Then he recognizes who's fault it all was... and he fuels with rage. He takes a deep breath.
-I'm gonna make him pay, Hercules says. He lays Y/N softly into the ground again as he leaves for the underworld. He quickly finds the gates and get over with no trouble at all. Pure rage and Adrenalin is flowing through his veins as he gallops on Cerberus all the way into the underworld.
-Where is Y/N!? Is the first thing he yells at the god.
-Look who it is! Wonderboy, Hades says.
-You are too much, he says.
-Let. Her. Go, Hercules threatens and grabs Hades' collar as he steps off of Cerberus.
-Get a grip, Hades says and pushes Hercules away.
-C'mere, C'mere, let me show you around, Hades says and begins dragging Hercules around, leading him to the pit of the underworld, souls traveling through a pool of plasma.
-Well, it's a small underworld after all, huh? Hades says and points to the souls.
And there she is, Y/N. Hercules quickly puts his hand in the pool, but feels a cold and dark feeling and pulls it up again. In the pool, it looked as if though he'd aged 50 years. Hades laughs.
-Ah Ah Ah, no no no no, mustn't touch. You see, Y/N's hanging with a new crowd these days, and a not very lively one at that, Hades taunts.
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...
