Snippet #1362816

Persephone could only watch in horror as her husband, her strong and dark husband's screams echoed through the Manor.She had moved away from Hades when he had told her to but she instantly regretted it when she saw what her father was doing to him. Her heart seemed to stop completely when her father spoke those dreaded words.The awful conversation she was forced to listen to between her husband and her father."“You will be bound to your throne in The Underworld until the war is over, and Persephone shall stay in the manor in the care and protection of her mother and the other gods.”

“And when will this war end? Months? Years? I have two months left. Based on our agreement she is to remain with me!”

“I do not know when this war will end. It may not end for several years, but until it does, Persephone shall remain here.”

“How dare you go against our agreement…she is safer with me. Didn’t I kill the Titan? No other mortals were harmed though they could have been if Coeus didn’t die…”

“We don’t know that for certain. The Titan may have only provoked you to do what he had intended for you to do.”

“The war has begun. You need me and my minions. You need my strength as you did in the first Titanomachy. You cannot win this without Hades. Not without the God of the Underworld!”

Persephone sank to the ground, having barely any words to speak but only small sobs. Her father would tear her away from the man she loved as a punishment?

She placed her pale hands on the floor, palms facing down and looked up at her father with tears once again falling down her angelic face."This....is your punishment for him? Did you ever think....how much this would wound me? How much sorrow I would endure while being away from the man I have loved for centuries?!"

She stood up wobbly and then turned to address all the Gods, her emerald eyes so filled with tears it became more difficult to see. " Mother, Aphrodite, Ares, and all of you. I love this man to my very core. There is no one else I can imagine spending..an..an Immortal life with!" She crossed her arms and clutched herself as the tears still continued to pour.

She turned towards Zeus and wiped the tears from her eyes and face."You who I have called Father, you who have given me life. I am the most disappointed with you. Hades is not a perfect man NOR GOD BUT NEITHER ARE YOU!."

Persephone's eyes momentarily lost their angelic gleam as anger took over her."I am done here. You can tell Hermes or one of the others to come get me when you have made your decision "Father"." She spat out the word and then her eye softened when she turned to look at her husband."No matter what our family decides, my thoughts and my heart will always revolve around you." She nodded her head towards him and then turned to give a small smile towards the rest of the Gods and her mother."I will see you all later..."

Persephone's body seemed to shake slightly and the scent of spring flowers began to swirl around the room, and within seconds she had disappeared.

Minutes Later

Persephone had managed to successfully transport herself to beach and was now laying down on the sand in her rather expensive Marc Jacobs dress, not caring at the moment about anything other then what had just happened at the manor. She sighed and sat up wrapping her arms around her knees and hiding her face."I wonder what everyone's choice will be...."
