Welcome to Gaia! ::

Persephone




She clenched her fists on top of the arms of her throne, her body trembling softly as her brown eyes hardened at his blue ones. "Never..." She began in a soft voice that shook with rage, "Never in all the centuries that I have known you.. Never have I despised you before this day Hades. You were fool enough to bring her to see this, and you expected her to be a dolice little child. Hades, she is not a picture to hang in what room you choose her to be in at that moment, she is a living thing! The has feelings, and cares deeply for the souls she is charged with! You dare think she would sit silent for this? You must be a fool. And you.... dare to ask me why I did nothing..... Have you forgotten that I tried to plead with you to allow her to be else where? And because of your... cursed fruit and the pact, I am bound to remain in the Underworld for another two and a half months should she leave. Bound to remain here with you. This may be a new detail for you Hades, but Mari is as much my child as yours. I will fight you should you stand between myself and Mari in the event of keeping her safe and living. I don't care if you are my husband. A mother wil do what she must to protect her child." She growled at him, and left in a silent rage to find Mari, leaving the stunned Hades alone in the throne room.

Persephone




Persephone calmed herself as she drew closer to Mari's room, trying to make herself not look so angry so she didn't scared the girl. She sighed and opened the door slowly, "Mari? Hey, I'm sorry........" Her voice trailed off as she glimpsed chaos on the other side of the door, her heart suddenly racing and thundering all at once as she threw it open and saw the scene.

Her mind froze as she thought back to the afternoon, centuries ago when she and Hades had gone off to stop a small group of confused warrior spirits and left Mari unattended as a small toddler. They had stopped what they thought was all at first, until Tyrinus had alerted them of a final one, and she had known Mari was in danger. When both she and Hades had managed to get to the room, Mari had already been cut along her eye, blood flowing freely as Persephone herself screamed as if she had been stabbed through her heart, Hades slicing the spirit's head off swiftly and without word. Persephone had scooped up the wounded demi-goddess and had never before thought that she could die before that moment. But now, she was feeling as if her own unending life was ending, and she began to panic. "Mari? Mari? MARI? MARI WHERE ARE YOU?!" She screamed as she stummbled around the room, her eyes pouring out tears as she tried to find the girl in question. "MARI?!?!"
