Carissa yawned as she came into the kitchen and kissed her dad on the cheek. "Bye dad."

"Where are you going?" Hades asked.

"School."

"What? There's no way they rebuild the school over night. Are you lying to me missy?"

Carissa rolled her eyes. "No dad, they really are having school, I guess since most of the classes are outside anyway they didn't see a reason to stop. Plus I got a scroll saying that there is school." She replied as she pulled it out of her bag and gave it to her dad.

Hades read it over and groaned. "Man, I had work for you to do down here."

Carissa put on a sad face. "Aw, you don't want to spend time with me?" She asked pretending to be hurt.

"Of course I do, but you know how busy it can be." Hades replied.

Carissa sighed and turned into Kareena. "Sorry dad, gotta go." With that she walked out of the Underworld and to the school where there were buses.

"Hey Kareena." Hercules waved her over. "Come on, we're spending a week somewhere else while they fix up the school."

Carissa got on the bus and sat with her friends. "So where are we going?"

"Intern week." Cassandra mumbled. ''Meaning that since we can't go to school we have to go to work."

"Work? Where?" She asked.

"The mall." Cassandra replied.

The buses took them to the mall where the guidance counselor Parentheses was waiting. "Welcome students to internship week, 5 days of motion into the real world of work until the school is rebuild." Carissa swore she heard him mumble. "And a week off for the teachers."

"Wow, a week in the real world." Hercules whispered to them.

"I often wondered what that would be like." Icarus said.

"Yeah well keep wondering." Cassandra complained. "Parentheses is going to give the in crowd all the good jobs while we and we'll be enslaved in humiliation as usual."

Parentheses started to go over the list of jobs. "Adonis!" He then mumbled. "The pampered pup." Before continuing. "You shall be working at Panasonicles, the king of big screens."

"How fitting." Adonis smiled. "I am royalty you know. Well off to, what's that word again? Work?" He laughed as his guards carried him away.

"Cassandra!" Once again mumbled. "Our little ray of sunshine." Then continued. "Shall staff the information booth."

Cassandra went to the booth where people go to get help and actually smiled. "This isn't terrible, I don't hate this."

"Icarus!" Mumbled. "Zeus help us." Before saying. "You are going to work at Aphrodite's Secret!"

"That has to be a mistake." Carissa said as Icarus ran to the store where they sell lingerie.

Icarus hugged a bunch of girls that were shopping there. "This isn't terrible, I don't hate this."

"Kareena! Shall be working at Titan's Treats." Parentheses announced.

"Never heard of it." Carissa said before she looked around for the store and saw it was an ice cream shop. "Huh, that won't be so bad."

"Hercules! You shall report to Hero World." Parentheses shouted before Hercules ran over and gave him a huge hug.

"YES!!" He threw Parentheses high in the air as he cheered. "I'M GOING TO BE WORKING AT HERO WORLD!!" However it wasn't Hero World, it was Gyro World, home of the tasty lamb sandwiches. By the time Hercules was told that Parentheses fell to the ground.

Carissa was actually enjoying her job. She smiled at two kids as she gave them milkshakes. "Here you go kiddos, enjoy." The mother actually gave her a big tip. Hey Carissa may be Princess of the Underworld but she has soft spots.

She was getting more topping from the storage well that was until her father appeared behind her.

"I knew you were lying to me, I go to the school to see it's still destroyed and I find my daughter at the mall getting ice cream." Hades scold.

Carissa sighed. "Dad, I'm not buying ice cream, I'm selling it."

"You got a job!!" Hades shouted flaming up. "You already have a job!"

"This is for school, they're making us work so we see what it's like in the real world while the school is being rebuild."

Hades cooled down a little and raised his brow at her. "My daughter, Princess of the Dead is selling ice cream? Where did I go wrong?"

"I was assigned to this job, and Carissa Princess of the Dead isn't working. Kareena is." Carissa pointed out. "And I have a surprise for you."

"What is it?" Hades asked.

Carissa made sure the coast was clear before she showed her dad that Hercules was dressed like a sheep. Hades held in his laugh until they were back in the storage. "Oh man! That's rich! Zeus is going to flip! I'm going to go rub it in his face right now!!" With that he was gone and Carissa went back to work.

Hercules walked over to her after some time and sat down. "Hey Kareena."

"Hey Herc, what's up?" She asked as she prepared some ice cream cones.

"I just quit my job." Hercules told her.

"I didn't know you could do that." Carissa said as she gave a couple their ice creams.

"I had to, Adonis came over and embarrassed me. I couldn't take it anymore." Hercules admitted. "Can you take a break so we can talk some more?"

Carissa waved a co-worker over. "I have a friend in need, you mind?" The teenage boy shook his head no and took over for her while she walked around with Hercules. "I thought heroes weren't suppose to give up on things."

Hercules stopped in front of a bust of his father. "Maybe you're right Kareena, maybe I shouldn't have quit." He looked at the statue. "You wouldn't give up would you?"

The statue then came to live looking upset. "You're darn to tootin I would!!"

Carissa and Hercules both jumped back surprised.

"Father!" Hercules gasped.

"You should have ditched that dead-end job from the gecko! No son of mine is going to work with mutton, it's humiliating."

Carissa looked around and saw everyone was staring at the talking bust. "Ok Zeus, we get it, now please quiet down."

Hercules nodded agreeing and smiled nervously at everyone but Zeus continued. "I'll see to it that you get a job worthy of your pedigree." He said before he went back to being just a statue.

At Olympus Zeus called for an emergency meeting. "I called this meeting for a very important reason." Zeus told all the other Gods. "Hercules needs a job." All the Gods rolled their eyes at what Zeus declared was an emergency.

"Darling." Hercules's mother Hera said softly. "Maybe Hercules should go back to his assigned job."

"Nonsense!" Zeus dismissed her. "My son deserves better."

Hades then spoke up. "Look no further, send him my way, I'm always looking for new working stiffs."

"Hercules in the Underworld? Ha! I rather see him back in the fast food joint!" Zeus replied.

Hades's flame went red. "But it's ok for your little brother and niece huh?"

"Oh come on, are you saying Carissa can't do her job that you need help?"

"Honestly Zeus, how is this an emergency? So what if your kid is making sandwiches and dressing like a farm animal?" Hades asked smirking. "It will teach the kid a lesson or two."

"What father would let their kid do that?" Zeus demanded.

"Well besides helping me with the dead, Carissa also sells ice cream, but you don't see me bothering all you Gods about how a princess should have something better."

"You actually want your daughter to sell food?" Zeus asked.

"No, but it teaches her responsibility and helps build character. Plus there are choices parents have to let their kids make, and you never know, it could be a good thing for you and your kid."

"I fail to see how." Zeus argued before Carissa appeared with a giant ice cream sundae in her hands before giving it to Hades.

"Here you go daddy." She said as she gave it to him.

"Thank you sweetheart." Hades thanked before she disappeared turning back to Kareena when she got back to the mall. Neither Hades or Carissa were worried about the Gods figuring it out that she's Kareena, they were all too stupid.

"See." Hades bragged before he started to enjoy the sundae.

"Hades is right dear, let Hercules figure this out on his own." Hera told Zeus.

"Yeah Zeus, ask your kid to make you a lamb sandwich or something." Hades added.

Zeus glared at them both, his wife didn't agree with him and Hades is making him look like a bad father. "Enough! I won't hear of this!" He then mumbled to himself. "A job for my son. Hmm, well this is a poser... Wait a minute! Son! Sun! Apollo!" Zeus looked over at the Sun God. "Why don't you let Hercules drive your sun buggy for a week!"

Apollo was big and tough but now he was shaking scared. "Hercules? Drive my solar chariot?"

"I knew you'd volunteer!" Zeus said happily.

"But the sun..." Apollo started to try to talk him out of it but Hades showed up behind him interrupting him.

"He'd love to do it! Bro, that is a stroke of divine inspiration!" The said to himself. "I know I'm inspired."

When Carissa came home after work Hades picked her up and twirled her around. "Guess what princess."

"What?" Carissa asked grinning at him happy he's still in a good mood.

"I have a plan." He told her as he set her down and sat in his chair. "What a scheme! Hercules is put in charge of the sun! We steal it from the kid, make him look bad! Make Zeus look worse! Instigate a little no confidence vote and BADA BING!! Zeus gets dumped, it is brilliant! Isn't this brilliant? Come on it's brilliant!!"

Carissa looked down at Pain and Panic who weren't listening making her lightly kick them to get their attentions.

"Oh, were you talking to us?" Pain asked.

Hades went red and fried them. "JUST STEAL THE SUN FROM HERCULES OK!" He got closer to them. "You think you can do that one little thing for me? Do you? Come on. No go! Get up in that sky! Pronto come on!"

Pain and Panic shook the soot off of them and smiled big. "Does that mean?"

Hades sighed. "Yes, you can take the harpies, GO!"

Hades and Carissa watched as Pain and Panic started dancing around chanting. "We're going to ride the harpies!" Over and over until they were out the door.

"Think they can do it?" Carissa asked.

"They better." Hades growled. "Oh and I wrote a note to your school saying that we're having a family emergency so you don't have to go tomorrow. I need you here for the plan."

The next day Hercules was ready to drive the sun chariot.

"Now be careful, she slips going into third sometime." Apollo told Hercules.

"Oh yes sir." Hercules said a little nervously.

"If it makes you happy, I'll assume full responsibility for his actions." Zeus said glaring at Apollo who nervously smiled at him.

"Apollo sir, I assure you, you have nothing to worry about." Hercules said before he flew out. "WHOA!! SEE YOU LATER!!" Hercules shouted.

"AND DON'T FORGET TO!!" Apollo shouted panicked before Zeus gave him another glare. "Have a good time."

"THAT A BOY!!" Zeus called after his son. "Give them Heaven son!" He then laughed at his own joke.

Hercules made sure Adonis could see him before he gloated. "Hey Adonis! How's this for a job?!" He was too busy bragging he flew too low to the earth burning trees and evaporating water. He was so distracted he didn't even notice Pain and Panic riding the harpies.

Panic made the harpies breath fire causing the chains that was holding to sun to break then flew away with the sun. By the time Hercules noticed the sun was long gone and he crashed the chariot into a mountain. "This has been a very bad..." The world then went black. "Day."

Once the sun was trapped in the Underworld Hades and Carissa was laying under it drinking tropical drinks and wearing sunglasses. "This is the afterlife." Hades said as his blue skin became a dark tan.

Now that the Earth was dark robbers came to the mall and took everything. The only one that wasn't worried about anything was Cassandra who was smiling at the robbers. "There are several stores that haven't been looted over there." Cassandra said as she pointed.

The robber with a Scottish accent thanked her. "Ya have my gratitude lassie, perhaps I'll spare your life."

"Thank you, happy pillaging" She smiled waving to them.

Hercules walked up to Cassandra. "What's going on here?"

"I'm doing my job." Cassandra replied not caring that a rock hit Hercules while she was talking. "And watching some really neat destruction."

"Oh no! This is all my fault." Hercules said.

"Unhand those underthings vandal!" Icarus shouted to the robbers in Aphrodite's Secret. "Slay me if you must but leave this quality lingerie alone." He said before using a rack as a sword. It was clear he was no match for the robbers so Hercules came to the rescue.

"Icarus, what are you doing?"

Icarus saluted. "I'm doing my duty as an intern and protecting my temporary work space."

"That's what I should have done." Hercules sighed sadly.

"Touch frilly things?" Icarus asked.

"No!" Hercules said as he continued to fight. "If only I stuck with my job at Gyro World, I never would have driven the sun chariot in the first place and none of this would have happened.''

Meanwhile Zeus was in big trouble. "How should I know where the sun is? You think I'm an omniscient or something?"

"Yes." All the angry Gods replied.

"Oh they got you there big guy." Hermes said taking off his sunglasses since he doesn't need them with it's so dark.

"Look, I'm sure my son has a good explanation for all this." Zeus told everyone. "If I could only find him."

Hades then spoke up. "You know losing one son, I gotta tell you it's tragic but to lose two?" He said referring to both Hercules and the real sun.

Carissa was standing next to him and added. "That's just some bad luck right there uncle Zeus."

Hermes flew up to them. "Hey, you look different. Did you change your hair or something?" He asked not pointing out the fact that Hades skin was now a dark brown. Hades rolled his eyes as he turned his hand into smoke and pushed Hermes away from them.

"You know the worst part is how this makes you look bro." Hades continued as he and Carissa walked over to Zeus. "I mean nepotism in our gross negligence, I don't wanna say that you're falling down on the job but hey..''

"Timber!" Carissa shouted as she fell backwards and Hades catching her last minute.

Hades chuckled as he kept Carissa bridal style in his arms. "You know I wouldn't be surprised if these guys called for a no confidence vote and put some new deserving God up as a replacement for you. You know some guy like.."

"A REPLACEMENT!!" Zeus shouted grabbing Hades by the chiron. "YOU!!"

"Thank you! Yes thank you, I humbly except the nomination." Hades said.

"Forget it Hades." Zeus told him.

Carissa pushed her uncle away from both her and her dad who still had her in his arms. "Back off bolt breath."

Zeus ignored her and continued crossing his arms. "I'm Zues, lord of Olympus and my fellow Gods would never vote to replace me right?"

All the God just gave him glares.

"ALRIGHT! Enough chit chat! Lets rock the vote!"

Meanwhile Pain and Panic were on Sun duty but fell asleep, while the sun started to get brighter and light could be seen above ground.

Hercules was sitting at the empty mall with Icarus. "I blew it, I'll never be a hero." Hercules sighed sadly.

Icarus however noticed the light. "OH! Herc, do you see the light?"

"YES! I release my mistake okay, how many times do I have to say it?" He asked not realizing what Icarus meant.

"No! Do you see the light!" Icarus clarified getting on Hercules's back and moving his head to see it.

"Hey! That's sunlight!" Hercules got up pushing Icarus off him making his friend fall into the fountain. "The sun must be in the Underworld!"

Icarus came out of the water and gave him an annoyed look. "You don't say." He glared grabbing a fish out if his shirt.

Hercules did a heroic pose. "Icarus, I'm going to get that sun back and restore it to the sky where it belongs!"

"And I'm going with ya!" Icarus said standing next to him. "Right to the sun! Right to the Underworld! Right to Hades!" His eyes widened at that. "WHAT AM I SAYING?" Hercules and Icarus both ran to Gyro world and grabbed two uniforms putting them on. They then ran to Titan's Treats and took all the ice cream.

"Hope Kareena doesn't mine." Hercules said as he and Icarus ran to the underworld to see Pain and Panic were melting from the sun's harmful rays.

"Get your ice, cold, thick milkshakes here!" Icarus called loudly making Pain and Panic run over. One after the other Pain and Panic both gulped down as much as they could drink until they both looked like mini blimps.

"You know you are looking at two pretty important minions." Panic told them as he had another shake.

"You got that right." Pain mumbled before he passed out on the ground.

"You see at this very moment, our boss is kicking old man Zeus off Olympus for letting his lame-o kid lose the sun." Panic explained.

Hercules gasped and jumped up to the sun.

"Hey! Leave that alone!" Panic shouted up at him. "Who do you think you are anyway?"

Hercules turned to them and took off his sheep hat.

"HERCULES!" Pain and Panic shouted before falling over from being too heavy.

"Curse you and your costume." Panic tiredly said.

"This LAME-O is returning the sun to it's rightful place." Hercules announced.

Pain and Panic started shaking scared not wanting to think about what Hades is going to do to them.

"I think we may have spoken out of turn." Pain said.

Hercules broke the chains that were keeping the sun in place and carried the sun out of the Underworld.

Back in Olympus the votes were being made.

"I Hera!" Hera said before glaring at her husband. "Even though I warned him." She looked at the other Gods. "Vote for my husband Zeus."

"She's his wife!" Hades shouted as some of the other Gods mumbled. "The Guy can't even keep track of the sun. And may I add that I never lost my kid and I definitely never lost the sun."

Some of the other Gods placed their votes until it was a tie.

"Apollo makes the final vote." Carissa announced. "God of the.... Blank."

Hades went over to Apollo. "Well Mr. Please don't take my sunshine away, guess we know who you're voting for don't we babe?"

"I don't know." Apollo admitted.

Hades flamed up. "WHAT?!"

"I need a little time to think." Apollo shrugged.

"HOW COULD YOU?!"

Carissa ran over to Hades and gently grabbed his arm. "Cool down dad, don't pressure him."

Hades calmed down and pointed to his daughter proudly. "See, she is what Olympus needs, she's been a princess forever, she's responsible, she hears people out, and she will never take someone's job would you baby?"

Carissa shook her head. "Never, Apollo's chariot should be driven by Apollo and Apollo only."

Hercules made it to a volcano and threw the sun into it.

"Herc, you gotta get out of there!" Icarus shouted up to his friend. "You only have like 10 seconds before the whole thing goes sky high!"

"That's what I'm counting on!" Hercules shouted as he held on to the sun.

Apollo was about to cast his vote, but before he could say who it was Hercules came in riding the sun which Zeus caught.

"Father! I'm sorry, I.." Hercules tried to say.

"No need to explain son." Zeus cut him off.

Hera nudged Zeus. "Go on."

Zeus looked back at Hercules. "I'm sorry I got you into this, and I'm proud of you."

"PROUD!" Hades shouted walking forward. "Proud of him? You hear that? He's proud of his little sun loser? I demand that you name me lord of.."

Pain and Panic came in and yelled. "Sir! Hercules stole back the sun!"

Hades then zapped them turning them to ashes. "Well, no harm no foul right? Hey wasn't this an interesting experiment in democracy."

Zeus grabbed a thunderbolt.

"NO!" Carissa screamed and tried to get to her dad before Zeus threw it but Hercules held her back as Zeus zapped Hades off Olympus. Carissa got out of Hercules grip and ran out shouting. "I HATE YOU ALL! YOU'RE NOTHING BUT A CLOUD FULL OF JERKS!"

All the Gods stared at her sadly. Hades was right about one thing, she is a good princess.

"Son, my I ask you something?" Zeus asked.

"Sure father." Hercules said.

"Try to be friends with your cousin, I know she maybe like Hades but she is in need of a friend other than her father and those brainless imps."

Hercules sighed, he always did feel bad for his cousin. "Alright, I'll try."
