"Oh, Hades what are we supposed to do!? Hermes is coming to get me soon and we will no longer be together anymore!"Persephone cried in Hade's shoulder as Hades gently hugged her"Persephone don't worry we'll figure something out." The days passed by and soon Hermes came to take Persephone back to Demeter. "Wait Hermes let me eat this Pomegranate first" Before Hermes realized what Persephone said Persephone had already eaten a piece of the pomegranate. "No! Persephone why did you eat those pomegranate seeds!" Persephone looked at Hermes and whispered, " It is the only way to stay with who I love.".
"Persephone now you can't leave the Underworld anymore! Frustrated Hermes left Persephone waiting at the river Styx."Hermes where's Persephone?" Hermes looked nervously at Zeus and muttered "Persephone ate a piece of pomegranate just before leaving so she is now unable to leave the Underworld." Demeter begin to cry once again, Zeus angrily looked at Hermes, Hermes backed away from Zeus scared that he would zap him with his lighting Bolt.

"Yes Zeus" Hermes hurried off to the Underworld to tell Hades the deal. Hades agreed to the deal only because Persephone still wanted to see her mother.
