"It's... It's..." I can't think of anything. 

I'm blank as I stand there. 

All eyes on me. 

Actual fear coming into my bones. 

Making them rattle as I look into my lovers eyes. 

He's getting angry and I can feel it. 

"Spit it out, WOMAN!" He shouts, making me jump. 

Tears spring to my eyes from the shout. 

He's never raised his voice this way. 

"Hades, it's the... It's the Titans. They've escaped Tartarus." 

I finally get it out. 

"What?" He asks, his eyes searching mine. 

Hades' gaze lingers for but a moment longer before I hear the crowd gasp again. 

They fall into a panic.

They rush around.

Men stumbling to grab their wives.

To grab their children.

Women tripping over their own dresses and running from the invisible. 

That is...

Until their King clears his throat. 

Raises his hand. 

And speaks a single word, "Stop."

His eyes blazen violet eyes never leave mine. 

I love the color of his eyes. 

The shade of violet that they stay.

The spark that they ignite inside me. 

He knows that I like it. 

"Persephone." His voice rings out. 

"Hades, I- I - I... I don't know what happened... I just... I was standing in our room, I was watching the window and then I went to the gardens and then I- I - I- I saw them. I saw something. I don't know what I saw... I assume it's the Titans. I thought that I saw-"

He raises his hand again. 

I stop. 

"Love." He whispers my pet name. 

The crowd is dead silent and still. 

I really don't know what's going to happen to me now. 

He knows my antics.
