Persephone tried to get away from the nanny but couldn't, as the grip on her hair was pretty painful. "Let go of me!" she growled, struggling. The nanny tugged harder before releasing her. "CLEAN THIS UP!" she yelled before leaving the room and shutting the door. Persephone touched her hair, her scalp was still hurting, she gently rubbed it and looked around the room. After a few minutes she had calmed down, and carefully put things back where they had been, and tried to fix things, then she sat on her bed thinking about what had happened, eventually she came to the conclusion that she couldn’t trust ANYBODY. She sighed and got up. She felt grimy and awful; she entered the small bathroom and began to shower, before conjuring up new clothes on. finally showering herself with flowers, she plopped on the bed, staring up at the ceiling. Before she realised, she had slipped into a deep sleep and woke up a few hours later at midnight, there were voices, who is talking at this hour? She wondered, getting up and walked out of her room and to the voice, she saw Hades and Apollo, they were arguing about something. Hades said “I wasn't trying to do anything I swear!" Apollo hissed, "Oh yes you were. we both know what you and Eris are planning. So stop it. Persephone has no place there." "Because she has it here?" "Better than in glooomytown," he said. Hades looked angry “I’m doing it because I know you’re planning something!” He growled. “You didn’t have to po!sen her.” Apollo looked shocked “how do you know about that?” He asked quickly “You wanted to act the hero by /saving her/ from the po!sen, so Zeus will prize you more and you will be given more authority!” Hades shouted. Apollo shouted back “Oh really?? We both know you were trying something as well, or are we forgetting about Eris? And it has nothing to do with my authority, I am better for her than you!!" "Oh really? And you represent that by po1son?" Persephone's eyes widened as she let out an involuntary gasp and both turned to her, both shocked into silence by her presence. her finger extended from her hand as she shakily pointed at both of them, before she blindly ran the other way, running until she hit someone. As Persephone looked up, she saw Aphrodite, “Aphrodite? Why are you here?” Aphrodite laughed and said “I live In mount Olympus, silly. But what’s wrong with you?” She asked curiously, “you seemed in a rush.” "Just..just.." Persephone rushed for a response as she heard footsteps behind her. Apollo and Hades had arrived, as well as Zeus. Now persephone was outright terrified as she ran past Aphrodite to what she knew was the farthest corner of Mount Olympus. Unfortunately, Aphrodite followed. "Dear, what is the matter?" She asked, running with her “it’s um…” Persephone mumbled running “love related?” Aphrodite chuckled. “Well, I suppose.” Aphrodite seemed happy that she had guessed the cause. Persephone simply sighed. "Choosing between sun boy and gloomy boy?" Aphrodite asked. "More like they are choosing for me," she muttered. Aphrodite nodded as if she had the most wisdom in the world . "Ahh. Well YOU need to choose persephone. if you let them choose for you, you're just a pawn darling. after all, that's what they are treating you s, and that's how you accept." Persephone said nothing. "You know if you don't speak up in the end Zeus will choose, and knowing him he always chooses the worst decisions." Aphrodite glowered. "Thank you," a voice said from behind, and as they both whirled around there was Zeus as terror flicked in both of their gazes, but mostly in Persephone's. "Now-" Aphrodite got cut off. “I will be speaking to those boys shortly enough.” Zeus said, Persephone flushed red, “in the mean time, you should BOTH get some sleep.” He said. Persephone nodded, not wishing to prolong the embarrassing moment, she left. When she reached her room she lay on her bed, she couldn't fall asleep. the thoughts were whirling around in her head faster than a tornado, but she forced herself to close her eyes. soon enough there was a gray cloud thing that settled on her, and she fell asleep.
