Chaotic Angels

Chapter Sixteen: Subconscious Pain

Flashback

Hesita's P.O.V

---

"Grandmother? I thought Perseus- I mean, Percy banished you?" I said in shock, silently thanking myself for staying sitting on my butt, cause if I didn't, I probably would've fallen over by now.

"He did. But once he found out that my children tricked me into thinking that the Gods were destroying the planet, he set me free. He put me back on the Primordial Council, and now I'm reunited with my husband, and siblings." She explained, sitting down on the floor a little ways from me. She had a worried look on her face, as did everyone else, but I didn't really notice them, as I thought about what happened.

I looked at Gaea and noticed that she was close to tears, so despite my fear of people touching me, I went over to her, and hugged her. She stiffened in shock, but then slowly hugged me back, slightly crying.

"You know, despite the giant war we had, and how many people we lost, I never despised you, or hated you. I couldn't because I knew you were only trying to defend what you thought was right, just like what the other Gods and Goddesses would do." I paused, pulling back to look her in the eyes. "I don't forgive you-" She gasped, tears immediately filling her eyes, but I held up my hand to signal that I wasn't done "-because there's nothing to forgive. You didn't do anything wrong in my book." She breathed a sigh of relief before pulling me back into a hug. Out of habit, I stiffened like a board, not liking that someone was touching me, and Gaea seemed to realize that so she pulled away, confused.

"What's wrong, child?" Chronos asked in his deep voice startling me, and kneeling down beside us.

"I'm not really comfortable with people touching me, unless I touch them first, or tell them to tell me before they touch me." I whispered, kinda embarrased that my brother made me afraid of people's touch.

"May we ask why?" Hemera, Nyx, Thalassa, and Ananke asked. I looked up to see everyone standing in a circle around me, looking down with curious eyes. It started making me a little clusterphobic, so I curled up in a fetal position, with my head on my knees. I heard Annamariah whimper, then curled up beside me, almost protecting me from myself. I laid my head on Annamariah's stomach trying to forget that I had fourteen pairs only eyes on me. After a while I finally found enough courage to tell then what happened, so I lifted my head, but didn't look at them, I looked at the floor.

"Well, Void is taking care of the issue right now, but my brother used to...."

...

Void's P.O.V

...

"I just found something intresting out, Zeus." I said deadly calm, despite my anger.

"W-What w-was t-t-that?" He squeaked, cowering in his all mighty throne.

"That you like to have fun with a defenseless, innocent, Goddess that has done nothing to you, but try her hardest to make you proud. She did nothing. Absolutely nothing to you. All she did was try to make you proud, and she's your older sister! She didn't chose to be swallowed by her father! She didn't chose to be the runt of everything! She just wanted to make the King of the Gods, her little brother, proud. So why on Gaea's green Earth did you go and abuse something like that? To completly destroy her trust in people, and you. If I didn't know any better, I'd say that you did it because you were jealous. She is an amazing woman that just needs a little love shown her way before she completely opens up, and shows you her true self. And you ruined it for her!" I yelled, snapping my wings out to look more intimidating. Which worked. He shrunk tight down to the floor in his knees, and he bowed his head.
