Percy Jackson Little Sister (Sequel To "Broken" Written by Tyler Jane Smith)

Chapter 83

Charlie:

I'm scared. I'm scared and I'm cold and I'm hurting.

I want my mom and my dad.

I want Bianca and aunt Zöe.

I want to go home.

I don't know how long I've been here, but I know it's been awhile. More than a week, at least. Even though it feels like years.

They keep me tied up in a damp, wet, cold cave. The ropes on my ankles and wrists are too tight, they dig into my skin and rub, making me bleed. There isn't any cover on the cave opening, so all the wind gets in, it's cold and harsh and bitter, and it stings my bare skin.

They took my shoes and my dagger. I have a tatty pair of trousers on, and practically no shirt, since its so ripped and torn- they beat and whip me daily. My skin is purple and blue, it's covered in scars and cuts. I'm covered in my own thick blood, it gives me the only warmth I have, but I doubt I have much of it left to loose.

They try different ways of torturing me every day. To try and get information out of me. I tell them that I don't know anything. And it's true. They're convinced that my dad is still up to things, hunting them down. The last followers of Gaea, that's what they call themselves.

I don't even know who Gaea is, my I know that my dad helped to defeat her.

They say they're going to get aunt Zöe. They say that they're going to hurt her. That they will get their revenge on Percy Jackson.

But I'm not going to let them. I won't.

They'll have to kill me before they can get to my aunt.

But I'm afraid they're already planning on doing that, once they see how useless I am.

I hope someone's on there way.

I hope someone's coming to save me.

I want to go home.
