shadow traveled down to the Underworld, hoping I could talk to my father. Maybe he will be a little more welcoming this time. I had my usual rotten luck as one could expect. Hoping to find my father I left out one little detail, it was November, Persephone was down here now.

As I walked into the thrown room, Hades wasn't there, but his wife Persephone was. She immediately started at me in disgust. I resisted the urge to do the same, besides she looked horrible, she was as nearly as pale as I was, her dress was seriously washed out like her eyes.

"Where is Hades?" I asked.

"Why do you want to see him?" Persephone asked.

"Can't I just talk to him?" I asked. "He is my father after all."

That was the wrong thing to say. She was mad now.

"Don't remind me." Persephone said. "It is bad enough that I have to be down here, but then I have to be visited by my annoying step-son."

"I'm not here to see you, I was down here to talk to my father." I said.

"He already told you he won't take your soul for that girl." Persephone said.

When she said 'that girl' I somehow knew she was talking about Bianca. She said it with such disgust it angered me.

"She has a name you know!" I said.

"I don't care." Persephone said.

What happened next was probably really stupid on my part.

"How could you say that! She was my family! The only one who cared about me! I didn't have a mother, I didn't about Hades being my dad yet! I loved her. But of coarse you wouldn't understand that." I said

"I'm a goddess, you will not disrespect me, even if Hades is your father." Persephone said.

I should've kept my mouth shut but, I was really mad and when I am mad, I just tend to say whatever pops into my head. "Ha, a goddess, a goddess of flowers."

Anger swarmed in Persephone's washed out eyes. She snapped her fingers, and I shuck. I got a whole lot smaller and way skinnier. I had no idea why couldn't move but I heard Persephone laugh.

It took about twenty minutes, but then Hades came in.

"Persephone why is there a dandelion in the throne room?" Hades asked.

A dandelion? Oh no she didn't!

Persephone cracked a smile. Of coarse I couldn't talk now being a dandelion.

Hades groaned. "Now listen Nico is coming by later, you might want to leave so he doesn't anger you."

"Oh he already was here." Persephone said.

"When?" Hades asked, quite confused and seemingly oblivious that his only child was now a weed two feet away.

"Oh he hasn't left yet." Persephone said.

"Where is he?" Hades asked. Then he seemed to realize what was going on. "Persephone you change him back right now."

"Why should I? He insulted me, and he annoys you doesn't he?" Persephone asked.

"Immensely." Hades said.

I felt hurt, if my own father didn't even love me, who did?

"But with the Titan war approaching I won't have that upstart son of Poseidon be the child of the Prophecy. Even if Nico is a huge pain, he could prove a useful tool." Hades said.

Is that all I was, an unloved tool?

Persephone snapped her fingers and I was back to normal. I just bowed to my father trying my best not to cry, and shadow traveled back to the mortal world, I didn't care where just wanted to get out of there.

A little sad how Hades didn't seem to care huh?
