Cerberus

by Madison R.

My name is Cerberus and for those of you who don’t know me I am the watchdog of the Underworld. My job is to protect any mortals from getting in and to make sure that anyone dead does not get out of the Underworld. It is a pretty important job and I don’t want to let my master (Hades) down. A lot of people think that I have 50 heads or snakes growing out of my back. But those are all lies, I don’t really like people making assumptions about me that are crazy and just not true. But nevertheless I keep pushing past it and try to do my job correctly. If you ever come across me in the underworld just know that I do not like listening to music. It puts me to sleep, therefore I can’t do my job right. Oh wait, I probably shouldn’t have told you that. Forget what I said before I decide to lick you to death. Well I have to go for now. There is a situation happening down here. A soul is trying to escape. Got to go do my job.
