The Forgotten 3 (Percy Jackson and Twilight Crossover)

Chapter 19 (Trouble is in My DNA.)

(TRIGGER WARNING- Abuse and Rape mentioned.)

Skylar's POV:

I look up at everyone and gulp, but I make eye contact with my mom. Oh boy. This is going to be a long story.

Not today, however, I am just not ready to tell this story. The thoughts of the foster fathers I have had plagued my mind.

For it was not only one man, but 7 men, who have abused me and taken something from me.

I have the scars on my body to prove it. One every time one of them would rape me they would slice a line onto my back. This is where I have most of my scars.

From the whipping, to the dagger slices on my back. It is full of scars. Showing how messed up I truly am. The rest of my body has scars from defensive marks, to my own earned scars from years of training.

I am proud of most my scars, they show how hard I have worked. To show those people that they will never be able to hurt me again. I have made sure that I will never have to go through something like that again.

I have trained with Ares since I was 12, and even though Percy had beaten him, he has more skill than Percy. I have trained with all of the gods, and I have trained until my body feels like it is shutting down.

I have trained for weeks on end making sure that I will never be hurt again, but that can't stop the nightmares.

No matter how hard I have trained, no matter how hard I push myself, I will never get rid of them. This is because I am that little girl again. Weak, broken, and unwanted, but that all changed when I met Tyler.

My dreams, however, didn't get the memo. Plagued by night terrors, and memories of the fatal past.

Thankfully I got out of the conversation with a few short words, and a look from Percy saying that this wasn't over.

However, I had a feeling that this conversation would come up a lot sooner than later, but I would take what I could get.

We were all talking about Percy's childhood, and how much trouble he caused as a kid. I look over at Estelle, and give her a look saying, this happens a lot huh? She starts to laugh, but puts her hand over her mouth to cover it. I see Annabeth start to chuckle seeing the interaction, and mom stops talking about Percy to see us laughing.

"What's so funny huh?" I hear Percy ask, and Estelle and I look at eachother again and burst out laughing.

Taking Annabeth down with us. I see everyone looking at us like we are crazy, but mom looks at us with awe. Right when I am about to ask her what that look is for, my phone starts to ring. I look down at my phone and see Addie as the caller ID, and give everyone an apologetic look.

"Sorry, I have to take this." I say, and get up and take my phone outside of the apartment.

"Hey, is everything okay?" I ask, when I answer the phone.

"Yeah. . . I mean, no, okay Emma has a broken rib, and I don't want a monster to come here with her being injured and me not being able to fight off a monster. So, I can come back and help me, because we have a quest to complete." Addie says, and kinda rambles on about.

"What do you mean, Emma has a broken rib? I leave you alone for 2 days, and this is what happens. You two need some more brain cells than the 1 you two share together. How in the Hades, do you break a rib in 2 days. Do you two need a babysitter or something. My gods, you two. 2 days, and one of you gets hurt." I start to yell, I hear the door open and look over at Percy who looks confused.

He looks over at me and mouths 'Who is it?', and I shake my head and mouth 'Staples.'. Percy makes an ahhh face and nods his head.

I was so caught up with looking over at Percy, that I missed Addie's explanation on what had happened. With a quick promise to return I hang up the phone and walk back inside.

I start off by giving an apologetic look to everyone, and watch their faces fall as they realize that I have to leave.

"I am so sorry guys, but I have to go back to Forks, Washington for a quest. I was on it when I came to see you guys, but I need to finish the quest before I can even consider living here." I say, and watch as they all give me understanding but sad looks.

Well everyone except Estelle who looks at me with utter misery, but to make sure that I can see a smile on her face I pull out my phone.

"You have a phone right?" I ask her, and see her whole face light up into a beaming smile.

"Yeah, hold on, I'll get it." She says, and runs into her room.

I see everyone smile, and my mom runs over to give me a big hug. Making me promise that I will visit more often. Estelle comes running back into the room phone in hand. I give her a smile, and grab the phone out of her hand to write in my phone number.

"Here, now you can call me any time." I say, and watch as her face beams. "And I mean any time Estelle. Seriously I don't care about what time it is, you need me, you call me." I say, and give her a serious look.

After all of my goodbyes and a huge hug from Percy and Annabeth, and getting rugby tackled by my mother again, I walk outside.

It's time to face music.

It's time to go back to Forks and face Jacob, and whatever else is in store for me there.

I just really hope that it isn't that bad.

Who am I kidding, I am a child of Poseidon, and the twin sister of Percy Jackson.

Trouble is in my DNA.
