“Wrong. Wrong. And wrong!” the king told her gleefully.

Her good luck wasn’t working! Her clovers were too weak. Her hand shook as she pointed to her sixth and next-to-last guess. It was a jeweled pin in the shape of a sailboat. She chose it because Athena had come to this island on a boat.

“Ha! Wrong again!” the king announced.

Persephone groaned. “I’m sorry!” she called to her friends.

“You still have one more guess,” said Aphrodite.

“You can do it!” Artemis added. “Think smart.”

“Take your time,” Heracles encouraged. “I was kidding when I said I’d make a cool top. None of us want to become objects in this museum!”

Persephone nodded, worried. She looked around, trying to think smart. But the king’s tapping was making it hard. She stared closely at each treasure as she circled the tables again and again. Tap, tap, tap, went the king’s silver cane as he followed her around.

Suddenly, Persephone noticed he was tapping tables, not the floor. The same three tables each time. Could those be the tables with enchanted treasures? Maybe he didn’t realize he was giving hints. Or maybe it was his idea of a mean joke!

From the corner of her eye she watched him tap one of the three tables he’d tapped before. His eyes slid toward a pretty silver bell with a carved wooden handle.

Aha! she thought.

“Hurry up,” the king complained. “You’re taking too much time. Just choose something!”

“Okay. I choose this,” said Persephone. Hoping she was right, she picked up the silver bell and rang it.
