OMG DRAMA!!!! Poor Hades, I feel bad for the guy since he can't get into his head that she likes him back! Ooh, but now I get to do Persephone's POV. This. Will. Be. FUN! Again, no hate stuff because karma is a big beach. I just want to take this moment and thank all of the people who reviewed...............now that that's done, read. Oh, yea.... remember how I said that a god's heart doesn't beat unless they're in love? Persephone is an exception.

Persephone's POV

I am angry.

In fact, anger just doesn't cut it. Zeus stepped too far over the thin boundary of respect and disgust and she says this man is supposedly my father! Then Hades.... defended me.

My heart thudded wildly.

I finally reached the hall where my mother was once standing and ran toward a shaken Eos. I shook my head sadly.

"Hey Eos, do you know where my mother is?" I asked. Her voice was soft and fragile.

"She went that way." And pointed to one of my favorite rooms; the weapon room, otherwise known as The Forever Successful Nymph Removal Room.

"Thanks! Talk to you later!"

"Welcome!" She whispered and walked to her chambers. I shrugged and opened the door slowly. I looked over the knives, spears, swords, armor, shields, and dust when I saw my mother corner a spider.

"You filthy scoundrel feel the sting of my 3 inch high heels!" She raised her foot. I gasped in terror. Spiders meant weaving, which meant Athena, which meant her anger, which meant Arachne.

"Mom, no! That's Arachne!" I screamed and startled her.

"Arachne?" She asked and moved slightly away from the cowering spider.

"The girl that Athena was mad at?" Recognition lit up her face and she suddenly moved backward.

"Oh yes, and she was turned into a spider. Oh schnitzels I was about to squish her!" There's my mother for you. She can sleep with her brother but can't even say a swear word. I shook my head and placed Arachne near her web.

"Mom, I can't believe you would've thought that this...palace would allow spiders. This place is sacred." I rolled my eyes.

"It's Mother to you, not Mom." She said and shook her finger at me. I grabbed it and pushed it lightly away. I rolled my eyes.

"Mom, what are you doing here?"

"Looking for you, of course! I had to ask Eos for help. Eos! And-" I stopped her.

"What do you have against Eos?"

"Well, for starters, she's so.....depressing.-" I stopped her again.

"She has a right to be depressed! She lost a son and her husband is a grasshopper. I'd be depressed too if I had to live forever with a grasshopper that doesn't pay attention to me!" I yelled. I was VERY angry. My Mom seemed to get freaked out and then got angry.

"Persephone CALM DOWN! I was just.... stating my opinion of her."

"Well why don't you keep your opinions to yourself? You don't take these things seriously Mom." I said, still a little angry.

"I take them seriously!" She argued. I sat down on a stack of shields, rubbed my eyes, and chuckled.

"Yea? How seriously?" My anger was cooling off.

Silence.

"As serious as a heart attack." I laughed.

"Huh, that's funny. Last time I checked your heart, it didn't beat." She opened her mouth. I quickly stopped her.

"Look, Mom, I don't want to argue anymore. Let's just go home and settle this tomorrow, okay?" I walked out of the room, towards the car docks and to my black 1966 VW Beetle.

"I WON'T BE IGNORED!" My mother screamed from the room.

I rolled my eyes, started the engine, and sped down the mountain's spiraling tunnel towards an opening opening and gunned the engine, causing a few squeals from some drunk sprites. One of them even made a rude hand gesture. I ignored him and sped to an isolated road that lead to my mother's mansion. My mother recommended a cottage because it would take up less space in the forest. I said no, got in a big fight with her, and it was all settled when I sort of defied the rules of space so our mansion would take up only 2 feet of space. I don't know how I did it, all I know is that it just worked. Suddenly, my phone began to ring. I held my breath and flipped open my cellphone.

Please let it not be her, please let it not be her, please let it not-

"Persephone?" I exhaled loudly.

"Yea, Athena?"

"Are you okay? I heard your mother scream and I went to investigate when I saw you practically flying out of the room. Everything is alright, right?" I sighed.

"No, everything isn't alright. Mom keeps acting like the dumb person she is and we keep on arguing. I hate it. And, the worse thing about all this, is that I have no down time to get a hold on myself! She's EVERYWHERE! Gods, if I can just have a day without her then I might actually not hate being around her." I sighed again.

"Why don't you come over here? I'll call Artemis, Iris, Hestia and we can have a slumber party."

"Aren't we a little too old to have one?" I smiled.

"Persephone, even GODS get bored a multitude of times. Plus, we can always do some of your pranks." She said.

I grinned. How could I resist the temptation?

"OK, I'll go, but don't say I didn't warn you about my malicious pranks!"

"I'm looking forward to it actually." She laughed.

"Alright. Athena, can you PLEASE call Mom and tell her I'm going to be with you? I don't want to talk to her right now." I pouted

"Fine, but this had better be the last time. The last time I called to inform her about you, she was half crazy with worry."

"Good times, good times." I happily said.

Athena snorted.

"I'll see you there." I said

"K, bye."

I closed my phone and made a U-turn towards Athena's road. When I finally got there (it took me 2 friggin' hours!) I almost shouted with joy when I saw all the glow-in-the-dark balloons around her...er...mansion. Athena was outside with her white snowy owl on her right shoulder, so naturally, I drove up to her.

"Hey, Athena. I see you have Flakes here. Is she joining us or what?"

"Nah, she doesn't like loud noises and with Hestia's singing it would drive Flakes here crazy." I giggled and parked the car in a parking space reserved especially for me (for today anyway) and went inside, Athena leading the way. We went into her huge living room and sat down on some couches.

"What do we do now?" I asked, suddenly very bored.

"Persephone, is there another reason you want to escape from your mother?"

Her question, yet simple, got me very red.

"No." I lied. I turned my head away from her.

"Yes there is. Your emotions play out in your face whenever something makes you feel...strongly." She turned my head so I could face her.

"And what do you see?" I asked looking straight into her eyes.

"I see happiness and....I see....I see an emotion that never been on your face before. It confuses me. I don't think I ever felt it before." I blushed and turned away. She smiled.

"Persephone, are you feeling what I think your feeling?" I blushed deeply. Athena began laughing.

"Oh my gods! Well done Persephone, well done! So, who's the lucky guy?" She continued to chuckle.

I mumbled.

"I can't hear you. Speak louder." She knew she was torturing me.

"Hades." I awaited her judgement, but when I looked at her, she seemed...happy?

"Aren't you going to say anything? Judge me?" I asked, a little bewildered.

"Persephone, I could think of only one reason you shouldn't be with him and that's your mother; but otherwise he makes you happy. Correct?"

"Ye-"

"Hey guys, we're here!" Artemis yelled.

We looked up and saw her running towards us with her arms out and gave us a huge hug.

"Iris couldn't make it. She had a date." She said looking and smiling at me.

"About time too." Hestia said, walking in. She sat down on a blue bean bag.

"You won't believe who Persephone's fallen for!," Athena started, "She's in love with Hades!"

I really do dislike myself (hate is a strong word). I took too long writing this stupid chapter. I know it's getting really boring, so that's why I'm going to pump up the next chapter. Be kind reply. No hate though.
