A smile formed on the ethereal form's lips as he nodded his head at the two imp's responses to his actions, rising back to a standing position. That was far too easy to coax the two into letting him to progress beyond the door they guarded, "Of course," he replied with a grin, "Hades' secret will be safe with me..."
And whatever this 'secret' of his would most certainly benefit me, no matter what it was. Any possible form of an advantage over this flame-headed god, would be best.
Blackheart's eyes slightly narrowed as he continued to listen to Hades speak, noting the flushing of his cheeks with a dull gaze, the connection of emotions that the death god could have been feeling at this moment not quite registering in his mind. Lust was merely just that, attraction which led to intercourse between two beings, considered a Sin by humans of a few religions, despite the natural reaction,
"If it would happen, then so be it." his reply seemed as though it were an empty statement , with again no emotion to go behind his words. While Hades seemed nervous, he was as calm as ever without the smallest care invested into what he said. Even if it would possibly hurt the other male. "We shall see."

The one called Panic, hopped onto the other imp and opened the door for Lucifer, revealing a room with a single bright light descending onto a nest from above. It seemed to be a source of warmth for whatever was in the nest, and if Lucifer could see as clearly, there was a brown-spotted beige surface peaking from the soil.
Hades crossed his arms over his chest, that was out of the way then, "Now... with this take-over... Aren't you concerned that the heroes will know and stop us? There are three of us and about a large handful of them. We would need to distract them from the real plan. Better safe than sorry, yes?" He suggested, best to plan a little with Blackheart before they get to the real planning with Lucifer.
It was only best.. Plus he wanted to avoid Lucifer for awhile longer.

"Of course, they always have and always will try to thwart our motives no matter how careful we are to execute them. That is how it has been and always will be." Blackheart replied, although not particular worried about such a suggestion, a distraction would just what the Heroes would need to stay off of his, Hades, and Lucifer's back for some time before the grand plan would be called into action. As for what this distraction could be it would need to be difficult to stop, and so widespread that it could not be managed so quickly, "An infection of some sort.. a modern plague, but one that is organic...living with a consciousness of its own."
Lucifer stepped forward into the newly opened room, his attention drawn to the only illuminated spot within. The very curious form of a nest below the light piquing his own interest, causing the ethereal male to step closer to it for examination. "An egg, of Hades?" he spoke aloud, then turning his attention back toward the imps, "For how long has this been here, friends?"
"Are you familiar with symbiotes, Hades?" Blackheart asked of the death god.

Hades began to think, what could be the more modern plague that regarded having a mind of its own? When Blackheart mentioned symbiotes, his attention returned back to his friend, "I am, a bit familiar with them... At least only one I have physically met only briefly... Venom, I think? He was separated from his symbiote and sent to a mental hospital. That much I remember."
He began to notice where the black demon was getting at, "You mean use symbiotes as a distraction? The only symbiote capable enough to multiply and spread as I know is Venom... But its seperated from it's host. We would need someone to fetch it and reunite it with its host."
"Uh yeah! It's hades'..." The fat pink imp places arms behind himself in slight nervousness.
Panic was slightly shaking, "It's been there since um... D-day after he returned... I can't remember.. I think it was y-yesterday or the day before. It could hatch tomorrow... i don't know, H-hades has a feeling it will hatch very soon."

"So quite shortly, and yet able to hatch so quickly after being laid.. even more interesting." Lucifer gave a hum-like chuckle, this would be perfect with the inclusion of the egg, just one more plaything for the fallen angel to add, the child would most likely be of the same sort of form as his parent's current state but that would be of no importance, only the being.
"You have met one?" Blackheart's interest was slightly aroused by that idea, but it was probably nothing quite important, "The symbiotes are able to reproduce themselves when it is their time to, it's not an ability that is exclusive to strictly one member of the species. If there is one, then there most certainly be more... such a creature could not possibly be the only one to have found its way to the planet."
He put a hand to his chin, narrowing his eyes as he thought of something from a few decades ago, "...I do recall a creature of an alike description being seen before. Lucifer had his interest on it, with its concentrated sins.. it seemed like it would be perfect for him." The black demon's attention turned back up to Hades, "But he became distracted toward something else that was more enticing to him.. if we were to come into contact with it, an arrangement may be made to retrieve this 'Venom' we will be one step closer Hades."

Panic hopped off of the pink imp, watching Lucifer still. "Might want to make it brief... Hades might come by to check on it." He said, still nervous and afraid that Hades will be angry if he found out.
Hades smiled some, "Then it will be done, one of us will find this person Lucifer had interest in and offer proposal to help us keep our enemies distracted. And trust me, we do need allies to be apart of this, whether to help us along our conquest or to distract the opposite side." He turned his head. "I'll talk to Lucifer about what we thought out. As much as I don't like to be near him, its best not to leave him out."

"Of course, my dear imp." Lucifer replied quite casually, as he turned back toward the egg and approaching as he reached out to it, lowering himself to be more level with it. His palm made contact with it feeling the exposed point, his touch causing an ember-like substance to be spread on the surface which quickly faded away as if it were never disturbed.
"We will need as many as we could possibly have." Blackheart nodded in agreement before glancing toward the hallway where Hades was setting his attention to a little while ago, "Perhaps I should visit this creature, you must remain here to keep watch over the dead.. I have a feeling that in a different reality, they could remain quite a detriment to even us if allowed to remain unattended. And while it was Lucifer I do not believe he should be the one to deal with this."
"I thank you both for letting me in on this 'secret'," Lucifer continued as he stood back up, turning around toward the door once more and walking out, a oddly placid smile placed on his lips as he passed the imps, heading back into the throne room. "So, friends, have you come to a conclusion of what to about this little collaboration of ours?"

The two imps closed the door and remained in their post.
Hades nodded, "I will remain here... After all, there are still some things here that I need to take care of." He said, then turned his head, noticing Lucifer coming in. "Ah... Lucifer, yes... I will take part of the plan... I already discussed a sort of distraction for our enemies. I am willing to discuss another distraction for them, keeping them occupied enough will be our advantage."
The flame-headed god approached a round table that had dark-colored water... like a table pond of course, and more of a fountain with the water only pouring from the side. He circled his finger around in the water and an image of a hero in red and blue on a rooftop appeared in it.
"My main concern, will be this one. He is too familiar with what our first distraction will be and thus might end it quickly. We'll need a way to keep him the most distracted... And anyone else that might prove a greater threat."

Lucifer only gave a calm smile in response to Hades, taking a place beside Blackheart as the death god lead them to the fountain, his gaze staying on him for a few seconds before looking down at the water.
"Spider-Man...I see your point." Blackheart replied, the build of the spandex clothed figure was a little different than what he had last seen, but there was no mistaking who it was. The hero was resourceful, and capable of overcoming most odds. Chances were this one's luck was in no way different. His arms remained folded as he glanced down at the water, his head tilting up to glance at the flame-headed god, "How would you suggest we provide something further to occupy him or any others, Hades?"

"I have someone in mind." Hades touched the water again, and the image changed to the band of villains that had clashed with the spider so much in the past. "If we get his enemies to our side, they will keep him occupied to let the first distraction enough time for us to bring our main plan." He glanced over to Lucifer and Blackheart.
His only problem of course, is that if this band of villains are willing to part with the trio. If they helped, they get the chance of being part of new world order. They would have a greater advantage of course, provided they will get what they need to remain conscious, since the spiders rebound always knocks them out so easily.

"Familiar enemies of the boy, they would be willing to cooperate with each other?" Lucifer asked as he gazed down at the rather odd alignment of villains, ranging in many sizes and shapes, from a man in a rhino costume to a fully transformed reptilian creature to even a man made of total electricity. "Quite a crowd."
"They will not be a permanent distraction, Lucifer. The symbiotes are a larger scale key to this plan, I believe you are familiar with one of these alien creatures." Blackheart replied to the fallen angel's inquiry, his head turning slightly to glance down at the ethereal form.
"Did I? Oh.. that delightfully sinful abomination. Yes, quite a beautiful and intriguing creature, so very prone to heading straight to the 9th Level when it perishes."
"I will be meeting with him soon to discuss his half of our distraction, we will need him to start as soon as possible."
"Is that right? Well I do wish you luck on convincing him."

Hades glanced to Lucifer, smirking, "They have cooperated before, but due to the spiders intelligence, they were used to be against each other for him to gain the upper hand. But if we make them only concentrate on keeping him at bay, they will not quarrel." He explained, then turned from the fountain.
"My underworld, for now... Will be the base of operations. While I'm still renovating to attract the living, its still the base for darkness. Mortals are not allowed in my palace unless they are invited, I'll be sure to send my minions with invitations to the group against the red and blue. I just hope by then, Underworld will be open to the eyes of living mortals to pay their respects to the unsinned dead." Hades chuckled, tail curling malevolently.
His eyes closed a little as he walked to his throne, "My underworld will become the new paradise, no one will know I have the group threat to their Heroes in my territory. For all they would know, these villains would probably be on tour, just like everyone else."

"Ahh.. If this Spider-Man is really such a nuisance, then why not merely lure the boy into becoming entrapped here, or even the depths of the Inferno?" suggested Lucifer, returning the smirk toward Hades and following up with a sharp grin as he disappeared into the smoke and re-materialized to sit on Hades' throne, one leg crossed over the other.
"After all, if you truly do wish to open your home up to Mortals to see their loved ones again, why not lure him with the one person who drove him toward who he is now? I do recall one minor detail that I may need to remind you of.. you do recall those ill-fated lovers, Orpheus and Eurydice, don't you?"

Hades glanced to Lucifer, frowning a little as the fallen angel sat in his throne. He crossed his arms, "It could work... But its not like I wont leave out his enemies..." The greek god cringed a little at the mention of Orpheus and Eurydice. That memory was ages ago, Eurydice and Orpheus already moved to the next life as souls are supposed to after awhile. Ben Parker was here in the underworld, it was a good idea... But if it fails then he would still have the villains to keep the boy from going onto the surface.
"I do... Are you suggesting Peter Parker would go his way to try and get Benjamin out of the underworld before his time to pass to another life comes?"

"Precisely," Lucifer nodded, remaining in his spot upon the throne of Hades, "Lure him in with the promise of having a chance to take his dear Uncle Ben back, surely he would love to see his beloved Aunt be genuinely happy once more, as well."
"Spider-Man is no fool, an annoyance, but not a fool." Blackheart's head turned toward the seated fallen angel, when be began to speak but turned his attention back to Hades as he continued to speak, approaching the god of death, "He has an instinctual enhancement to warn of danger, in that regard Hades should be the one to deal with this. He does not quite have the stench of absolute evil that you and I have Lucifer. I believe that he may be able to coax him into some sort of deal..."
Lucifer's fingers knitted together as he leaned his elbows on the arms of the throne, closing his eyes for a moment, "Very well." he replied with a sure smile, after all, dealing with Hades would still damn the young Parker's soul to him anyway. "Would you be willing to, my young friend?"
