"Maybe back to the pound?" Cassandra said sarcastically.

Meanwhile, back in the Underworld, Hades was plotting. He specifically hadn't told Meg about Hercules because he was hoping she'd meet him, 'fall in love with him' and then he could do the honors of breaking her heart. "Ya know what boys, my afterlife is finally looking up."

"really?! in...what way exactly?" Panic said with a confused look. "yeah uh..what's on your mind your atrociousness?" Pain inquired looking up from his clipboard and at his dark master.

"Well, normally I'd fry you two for being such bubling idiots, but since I'm in a good mood, I'll humor you. Our newest minion, little Nut Meg, is the perfect bait. We are going to play matchmakers, boys. I have decided that Meg is the perfect girlfriend for Wonder breath." he beamed at his own brillance.

"Matchmakers?!" they both yelled out in unison. Pain and Panic looked at each other with surprised looks and then Pain responded with a now curious look, "boss are you feeling okay?" "Yeah!" Panic added "you said love was stupid! and besides.. love is..well you know..mushy.." Panic said holding his tail, face in disgust. "And dirty" Pain added with a nod. "and slimy!" Panic continued. "eww now that's just gross" Pain said with a face in disgust.

"Ok! Point taken!" Hades silenced them with a wave of his hand. "There's a motive here. If Meg falls for the demiclod, he'll be all sappy, and then we can order Meg to kill him! It's perfect! get it now?!"

"ooooohhh!" They both said in unison. Pain thought for a moment "So uh.. how exactly are we going to get them to.." "fall in loooovveee" Panic interrupted, folding his hands pretending to be all sappy like.

"That's a very delicate subject, but it just so happens that Aphrodite ows me a favor." He grinned wickedly.

"Aphrodite? wait a minute.. doesn't she hate you, boss?" Pain said "Yeah she practically despises you, remember?!" Panic yelled out. "With a passion!" Pain said nodding agreeably, both not noticing their "rubbing it in."

Hades grinded his teeth. "YES..... I. Noticed. She. Hates. My. Guts. But, I have something she wants, so she'll do something for me. I know how much she loves her beauty cream, and it just so happens that the spring of eternal beuty runs through the Underworld, and Aphrodite would loooooooooooove a bottle of that. One pint could last her a decade. See where I'm going with this?!"

The next morning, Meg registered for school, as instructed. The School Counselor, Parenthesis, gave her all that she needed; Her school ID, her locker #, and her daily schedule. She found her assigned locker without a problem and threw all the junk she received inside. 'Like those will come in handy', She thought dryly. The first class was shop. When she arrived, a crazed man greeted her and introduced himself as, Daedalus, the class instructor. There were no desks here, just stools. She found a vacant spot in the back corner. The class was full except for three vacant stools near the front. 'Either they're late, or their ditch'n class', Meg figured. She listened to the instructor bore on as she struggled to stay awake.

"uh-huh" They both nodded and then after a few nods, shook their heads with confused looks "Wait.. are we talking about some spring or creme?" Pain asked. "who cares?! they're the same thing!" Panic argued. "Then WHY would Hades say otherwise?" Pain said as-a-matter-of-factly. "ooh that doesn't matter!" Panic countered. "Apparently it does, Panic." Pain said proudly, emphasis on his name. "no it's not to infinity!" Panic yelled. "oh.. he's good." Pain said, rubbing his chin.

Hades shook his head and zapped them both. "try to stay focused here. I know it's hard for you, but still. The water is better than the cream. Aphrodite won't need the cream if I give her the water. But I'll only give her the water if she makes Nut Meg fall in love with the zero in training. Understand?!!?!?!"

Pain's incinerated body managed to cough, "you made it perfectly clear, boss" "yeah." Panic said, crumbling into ash.

"Good. See, now isn't it nice when we can have these intellectual conversations?" Hades said grinning.
