"How will I ever fix this?" Cried Hera. The battle had already begun, and Hera could do nothing. She heard the boom of the mortars, the bang of the cannons, and the whistle of the arrows as they flew by. Out of desperation Hera cried, "Zarzuelas! Zarzuelas! Come back! I need you!" She waited. Nothing happened. Hera stamped her foot. Then she flopped down on her bed and cried. Then she heard a twinkling sound, and Zarzuelas appeared next to her. "Where have you been?" Hera shouted. "This is not what I wanted!" Zarzuelas crossed his arms. "You wanted a way to get out of the marriage! This was a solution." Zarzuelas protested. "I just wanted them to change their minds! Not declare war!" Hera screamed. " Hold on!" Zarzuelas said. He opened up a window, and created a ball of blue fire. Then he threw the ball of fire out the window and when it hit the ground it turned about 40 people to dust. "Much better!" Said Zarzuelas. "Now, to reverse the spell. He raised his hands and this time golden light came from his hands. "I revoke the spell, let them know. I revoke the spell, don't let it grow." Then gold sparks flew everywhere. The battle died away, and Zarzuelas was gone.
