Mika
17

“How did Hades know what Mika hasorganised?” Charlie asks as he sits next to me, our legs entwined.

“He’s Hades, it doesn’t surpriseme,” Mika shrugs, “no one was harmed, we shouldn’t be too worried,” He purseshis lips.

“But, what can we do if he knowswhat we’re going to do?” Jamie asks from in the middle of Mika and Jasper, “waitwhere’s Alex?”

We all look around, Charlies eyeslanding on Mika, “What?” I whisper to him.

He shakes his head and looks up atme, “it’s nothing, he just watched Alex fly away, that’s all,” he leans up andpecks my lips obviously lying to me.

“She went for some air, andluckily she did otherwise Hades would have got to her,” Mika chimes in, “by theway Levi,” he starts making me look at him and hum, everyone else fallingsilent, “why wasn’t Hades here for you?”

I blink a couple times beforelooking at Jamie who eyes me suspiciously, “I thought the same thing,” is allthat leaves my lips. I honestly don’t know why he wasn’t here for me also.

“Maybe he expects you to turn onus?” Jasper suggests. Jamie continues to stare at me with curiosity, I hope sheisn’t thinking I’m the one who told Hades our plans.

“Maybe, but, I’m not going to turnyou guys in,” I reach up and rub the nape of my neck.

“You aren’t suggesting Levi is theone who went behind our backs and told Hades our plans are you?” Charlie barksas he sits up straight and eyes everyone angrily.

“We’re just following evidence,”Jamie sighs and crosses her arms, her hand leaving Mika’s.

I stay quiet as I let them bickerabout my apparent traitorous behaviour. I don’t really care if they think itwas me, if they try to kill me, they’ll all die first. I’m stronger, “Charlie,we don’t believe he did anything,” Jasper smiles.

I look up from my hands on my lap,my hair falling over my eyes, “you don’t?” I ask.

“No,” Is all that Mika says makingme smile slightly with a small chuckle, “but, you are going to have an eye kepton you,” he warns.

I nod my head, “so you do believeit was him?” Charlie growls and stands up.

We all stare at him, “no Charlie,we said we didn’t,” Jamie says as she stands up after him, obviously annoyed,“so don’t get shitty with us.”

“Calm down everyone, if we don’twant anyone getting angry, it’s me,” Jasper snaps making us all look at himwith fear written in our eyes, well, except me. I’m not scared of him.

“We need to get this war started,”Mika chimes in as he slams his hands on the coffee table, “We need to startthis and finish it.”

“How? He knows our plans,” Iremind them making them all fall silent. Even Mika falls silent, he alwayscomes up with war plans, “wait guys,” I say as I stand up and walk over to thefire place, “Mika went there no? Then what if he could read his mind?” Isuggest.

“That would explain a lot,” Jaspermumbles and runs his fingers through his hair.

“If so,” Jamie starts, making metilt my head ever so slightly to face her, but, not look at her, my hand on mychin in thought, “how are we supposed to start a war when he still knows ourplans?”

I spin on my heels and look atthem all, “Simple!” I chirp.

Charlie looks at me with worry inhis eyes, “oh no, you’re not doing what I think you are,” he warns and stepstowards me, but, I shrug making him stop and look down avoiding my eye contact.

“What do you have in mind Levi?”Mika asks, him being the only one still sitting.

I smirk and run my fingers throughmy hair, “we all know of the forget me not spell,” they all nod, except Jamiehow is new to this whole thing, “I’m going to take the potion so he can’t readmy mind and go and tell him a fake plan, therefore he believes that I’m stillon his side and deceiving you.”

They all smile at me, with theexception of Charlie who is pissed off at me for my idiocy, “that’s a goodidea, who thought you would have come up with it,” Mika chuckles and finallystands up.

“I can kill you with one hit Mika,shut it,” I growl.

“We should do this now if we wantme healthy for the war,” Jasper mumbles the last part to himself. I forgot hewas fallen, he’s going to get extremely weak in 2 weeks then he has two moreweeks left before he disappears.

“What’s the new fake plan?” I ask.

Everyone looks straight at Mika,he groans and crosses his arms, “Alright, in four days we’re going to attackthe east side of hell first, try leave purgatory out of this, then we’ll makeour way to the centre, his majesty’s throne and take him out,” He says, “I knowit’s shitty, but, it’s better than nothing,” he shrugs.

“So how do we do this?” Jamie asksand my stomach turns into a knot.

“Another demon has to do it, andto seal the deal, they must, um, kiss the other,” I cough awkwardly knowingMika is the only other demon in the room.

Everyone’s eyes fall on Mika, “Ohhell no,” He stands his ground.

“We need this done,” Jasper whinesand ushers Mika towards me, “do it for Jamie,” He snickers and pushes him intome.

I stumble back, but, catch myself,“he is not kissing Levi,” Charlie growls.

Mika sighs and crosses his arms,“I’ll do it,” he closes his eyes as if he doesn’t believe his own words. Jamiecracks up laughing followed by Jasper.

A blush forms over my cheeks as Ichuckle awkwardly, “you need to do the spell and command me to do what youwant,” I swallow hard causing the laughing to die down.

Mika reaches up and holds my head,placing his thumbs on my temples, “Oblivisci me audite praecepta mea votatollamque manum meam” My eye’s roll back making a pure white engulf my eyes,“Forget the plan and go to Hades telling him, in four days we’re going toattack the east side of hell first, try leave purgatory out of this, then we’llmake our way to the centre, his majesty’s throne and take him out,” Slowly hishands leave my head and my eyes roll back to their normal state. His lips crashonto mine as electricity runs through me. Slowly he pulls away.

I blink a couple times trying toremember what just happened, then it hits me, “W-what?” I stutter, “why am Idoing that?!” I shriek.

“It worked,” Jasper whispers.

“Now go,” Mika barks.

My eyes turn black as anger washesthrough me, “yes, master,” I transform into my fighting gear and wield myswords.

“Whoa, he looks scary,” Jamiemumbles to Jasper.

A black smoke engulfs me as I can no longer seethem and heat radiates onto my body, Hell
