The boy in the photo above is Riven, he has green eyes I swear.

Persephone weeped hysterically for hours, she didn't understand what was going on nor did her husband.
Zeus walked in, rolling his eyes at her, "What are you crying about?" He enquired rudely.
"I'm well aware how obvious it is! Gia is dead!"
"I know she's dead...wait," A look of fear crossed Zeus' mind, "Wait! You don't know?"
"Know what Zeus? Stop being so vague!" Persephone angrily screamed through tears.
"Gia's death, it was planned, because it's time for her to come up here and join you, idiot." Zeus groaned, "Much to my disapproval."
"Silence Zeus," Persephone ordered, standing up so that she could tower over Zeus who had sat down next to her in the relm of death, "You are terrified of my daughter's power because she's taking you and God down!"
Zeus stood up, then towering over Persephone by at least a foot, "She doesn't know what to do with her power! Is killing me the answer? No! We should kill her!"
"HOW," Persephone reared back and struck Zeus on the face with a mighty rage, "DARE YOU! I may not have been born as a God but touch my daughter and I will kill you myself! Take her rightful job!"
Zeus then did something that was definitely to Persephone's surprise; he grabbed her wrists and pushed her to the wall, he lifted her by her arms that were pressed together above her head. He pushed his face into hers, watching all her fury drain away.
"You can't do anything, you weren't supposed to be here, you doomed yourself by eating that stupid pomegranate. You'll never touch a hair on my damn head!" He hissed, dropping her and watching her wobble before regaining her balance.
Persephone laughed in his face, "I know I'm not doing anything, I can't, because it's Gia's job. She will do it for me."
Persephone smirked in Zeus' enraged face, "Now run along, enjoy your power while it lasts."
Zeus walked out but before he did he muttered, "Oh I will Persephone."
Persephone didn't know what thàt meant but she was about to.

"You can't do this Zeus!" Persephone screamed, grabbing the bars on her cell, "This is against all rules we have here!"
Zeus rolled his eyes, he was loving every bit of Persephone's screams.
"Just wait 'til Hades finds out."
Zeus froze, that would be quite the problem.
"He'll understand that you caused a crime." Zeus chuckled.
"I have done no such thing, now before anger breaks out, let me roam freely once again!" Persephone attempted bargaining but it wasn't going to be that easy.
"I forgot you're no from here and talk funny," Zeus said so casually, ignoring her begs.
"You can't lock up the innocent! The Lord dislikes me, yes, but he won't stand for this. You're rusting his name!"
"I'll tell you now before spit anymore rubbish. The Lord asked me to do this!"
Persephone gasped, he did what?
"Excuse me?" She stuttered.
"You heard me."
Zeus walked out, leaving Persephone in her shock, she would have to stay here and miss her daughter's appearence. She'd miss her training,  all of it, she'd miss everything.
"ARGH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!" She screamed in pain, all of her efforts to keep her Gia safe and she'll never even be able to meet her.
Gia's travelling here as we speak and she'll miss all of it.

"I'll rip him apart myself!"
"With all due respect Sir, don't shoot the messager," The scrawny man pleaded with the underlord.
"Yes it fucking is! You were working the cameras when that prick came in, why didn't you stop him from taking her?" Hades was enfuriated, in disbelief, he had never been so close to bursting in someone's cell as he had been right there at that moment.
"I'm terribly sorry Sir-"
"I don't want your shitty excuses," Hades cut him off.
The scrawny man, Leonardo, was a dear friend of Persephone's but Hades had always seen him as a bit useless and here he was proven right.
"I just," Leonardo started to quiver and shake with fear, "Someone needed assistance with carrying supplies to your office, a lot can happen in five minutes." He chuckled, quickly realised this was not the time and day considering Hades unimpressed reaction.
"These supplies better have been unicorn shit!" Hades said, a little bit more relaxed, "What was it?"
"Erm.." Leonardo stuttered was anxiety, "Some autopsies."
"Autopsies? I have billions of those and those are what might have caused my wife's hypothetical death!?" Hades screamed in disgust, anger painting itself across his red and blotchy face.
"Please, you must understand the importance of these specific autopsies," Leonardo pleaded, "One of them was your daughters."
"What?!"
"Gia, she is dead, she's coming up here with her friends as we speak."
