Poseidon and Zeus were enjoying the delicious smell of turkey and all the deliciousness of foods all over the world on Mount Olympus with many other gods and goddesses. They were all having fun and enjoying the view. The gods and goddesses were having fun except for 1, Hades. Hades the god of the underworld was planning something.

Many villagers went to Mount Olympus to tell Zeus and Poseidon that their evil brother is trying to escape the underworld. Zeus and Poseidon never had a good past with Hades. They always argued with him. Zeus and Poseidon didn’t want the villagers to be scared so they went to the village. When they arrived, they felt the whole village shaking.
Zeus and Poseidon went to the underworld to stop Hades from leaving that wretched place. Zeus and Poseidon saw Hades trying to escape.
