“I’ve tried to bring Galatea to life, but it didn’t work. Maybe you could?” Pygmalion begged.

“No!” Aphrodite and Persephone shouted together.

He crossed his arms, looking angry. “Why not?”

“Because Galatea looks exactly like this evil girl we know. Her name’s Medusa,” Aphrodite told him.

“Last time we saw her, she got turned into a stone statue in a forest,” added Persephone.

Pygmalion nodded, excited. “Yes! I saw that statue when I went on a walk around Mount Olympus. When I came back, I created Galatea to look just like it.”

“Hmm. I wonder if maybe that Medusa statue somehow put a spell on you? A spell to make you create Galatea with Medusa’s same powers,” Aphrodite said to Pygmalion. “So she’d make trouble and do evil stuff around here.”

“Yeah! Before she became a statue, Medusa could turn living creatures to stone. With a single zap from her eyes!” Persephone said. “So if we wake up Galatea, there’s a chance she might zap you.”

The prince only smiled wider at his paper girlfriend. “I’m sure Galatea wouldn’t do that. She looks super nice. And sooo beautiful!” He put both hands over his heart and sighed happily.

“Huh?” said Persephone. “Nice? Beautiful?”

“But she’s frowny and has snake hair!” said Aphrodite.

“Yeah, isn’t it great? I like that she’s so unusual.” Pygmalion gazed at Galatea with love in his eyes. “She’s perfect.”

“Awww, that’s actually kind of sweet,” said Aphrodite.

“Yeah, I guess you really do love that paper girl,” said Persephone.

“That’s what I’ve been trying to tell you!” said the prince. His eyes narrowed. “Now say a spell to make her come to life. Or else!”
